Introduction
Natural micronised zeolite powder has gained 
attention for its purported health benefits, ranging 
from detoxification to improved gut health and 
immune support.
These properties allow zeolites to act as molecular 
sieves and ion-exchangers, trapping toxins and 
exchanging beneficial minerals. In this report, we 
examine Modernite – a high-grade natural micronised 
zeolite from New Zealand – and explore evidence for 
its healing benefits. 
What is Modernite 
Zeolite?
Modernite refers to the natural zeolite minerals 
(primarily mordenite and clinoptilolite) sourced from 
young volcanic deposits. These zeolite deposits are 
geologically “young” and notably pure, free from 
industrial contaminants.
Modernite is rich in aluminosilicate minerals 
containing essential cations like calcium, 
magnesium, potassium, and sodium bound in its 
lattice. Upon ingestion, these cations can be 
released (through ion exchange) in the 
gastrointestinal tract, making Modernite a source 
of beneficial minerals.
Detoxification and 
Removal of Toxins
One of the most cited benefits of natural zeolites is their 
ability to bind and remove toxins from the body 
(detoxification). Zeolite’s cage-like structure and negative 
charge confer a high cation exchange capacity, meaning it 
can capture positively charged toxic ions (heavy metals, 
ammonium, etc.) and release benign ones.

Immune System Modulation 
and Antioxidant Support
Zeolite’s impact on the immune system is complex but positive – it appears to act as 
a non-specific immune modulator and an antioxidant, thereby supporting the body’s 
defenses on multiple levels. Modernite (mordenite/clinoptilolite) has been observed 
to:
Stimulate Immune Cells
Research suggests that zeolite particles can activate portions of the immune system much like 
an adjuvant.
Local Gut Immunity
The gut is a major immune organ, and clinoptilolite interactions here likely mediate systemic 
effects. 
Antiviral and Antimicrobial Effects
Zeolite itself is not a drug, but in vitro experiments show it can bind microbes and viral particles 
by adsorption.
Antioxidant Properties
Oxidative stress and immunity are closely linked.
General Wellness and Nutrient 
Support
Beyond specific organ systems, natural 
micronized zeolites contribute to overall wellness in 
several noteworthy ways. Modernite’s composition and 
actions can positively influence nutritional status, bone 
health, and overall vitality:
