How to Take Zeolite Without Dehydration
Zeolite is used to remove toxins from the body. It is listed on the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's list of drugs and supplements that are generally recognized as safe (GRAS). Zeolite bonds to heavy metals like mercury and lead as well as free radicals, pesticides and herbicides then removes them from the body. It is usually administered in liquid form and is clear, almost tasteless and odorless. Zeolite naturally absorbs water, making one of its only side effects dehydration. You can avoid dehydration while using zeolite by taking it in proper doses and monitoring your water intake.Things You'll Need

1
Drink eight to 10 glasses of water on a daily basis before you begin detoxification with zeolite. This ensures your body is properly hydrated before the detoxification process begins and reduces risk of later dehydration.
-
2
Take 10 to 15 drops of zeolite three times a day for your initial detoxification. Liquid zeolite can be taken with or without meals.
-
3
Continue taking the dosage in step 2 for six to eight weeks.
-
4
Reduce dosage to three to five drops of liquid zeolite three times a day after your initial six to eight week detoxification. This is called a maintenance dosage.
-
5
Help yourself to remember to drink at least 8 to 10 glasses of water each day by taking your zeolite doses in 8 ounces water.
-
6
Modify your dosage if the detoxification process becomes uncomfortable by separating your 10 to 15 drops dosage into 2 to 3 drops in a glass of water every hour or two. This way you aren't taking as much zeolite at one time which will slow down detoxification and reduce your discomfort.
-
7
Drink at least a half ounce of water for every pound you weigh while taking zeolite. This usually translates into about 10 glasses of water daily. This means, in addition to your three glasses of water with zeolite drops, you will need at least another seven glasses of water to ensure proper hydration.
