Just wanted to post where I am with the zeolite experiment, mostly so that I can keep track for myself.
Besides increased tolerance for socializing over longer periods, I'm aiming for lessened tendency toward sensory overstimulation and a stronger immune system (since I catch a cold very quickly after being overstimulated for too long, such as socializing heavily two days in a row or sleep deprivation). Mercury cripples the immune system AND contritubes to sensory overstimulation. This is why I hold the theory that removing it with this product should help. Lots of others have noticed improvements in their classically autistic children, and there are clinical studies in progress.
The powder I mentioned before did help to an extent, but it ended up hurting my stomach, which always gives me a headache, keeping me away from people for another reason. I experienced some detox symptoms, noticed myself beginning to gain greater tolerance for socializing over longer periods of time, and I still have more energy to keep my home cleaner than before as I predicted. But I have doubts that it will grab enough mercury (if any) from my brain like the liquid product does, according to studies. So I'm abandoning my anti-establishment stance to give the most popular yet more expensive product a try. The molecule is said to be no larger than 5 microns, enabling it to pass through the blood-brain barrier. The powder only cleans out the digestive system, which is fine if that's all you want. (I learned through google that the internal diameter of a brain microcapillary is 6 microns, but powders are rarely below that. Good old Google M.D.)
The liquid zeolite makers (Waiora) also cite results showing that about 60% is absorbed into the bloodstream, meaning the rest stays in the digestive tract. Although I'd be taking a lot less at a time, I'm still concerned about the cramping. So I'm using it transdermally. It should be absorbed through the skin, since it's so refined. I received it in the mail today and used 3 drops earlier in the day and 3 more later in the day. I dropped the liquid on my wrist and rubbed onto my neck. I don't know if it's just placebo or other factors, but I feel more energetic now that it's the end of the first day. Will need to continue using for longer to get a full and realistic picture.
It's like a clear, clean sort of energetic feeling, not a dirty, adrenaline-based one as if on coffee. If this has real effects on me, it seems that the solution to the problem was not to add but to take away...
