Autizam
Brojne američke znanstvene studije autizam kod male djece dovode u vezu s toksikacijom živom odnosno teškim metalima. Kod djece koja imaju dijagnozu autizma poremećen je metabolizam teških metala, bilježe se povišene vrijednosti žive, ali i drugih teških metala. Dječji organizam se na određeni način “adaptirao” na te otrove. Proces detoksikacije odnosno suportivnog liječenja zeolitom treba provoditi dugoročno, ali postupno i neagresivno. Ne postoje relevantne kliničke studije o primjeni zeolita kod autizma, ali znanstvene studije te klinička i anegdotalna iskustva potvrđuju opravdanost primjene zeolita kod autizma (vidi studiju Dr Prociuk: Autism and behavioural disorders in children).
