HeavyMetals in Chocolate – A Holiday Risk?
Stay healthy while snacking with the help of natural zeolite
The Christmas season just started and with it, most people'schocolate consumption is on the rise. A recent study shows heavy metals in chocolate even from well-known manufacturers.
Study shows heavy metals in chocolate from well-known manufacturers
A multi-year analysis of 72 cocoa products in the USA reveals that many cocoa products, including organic ones, contain concerning levels of heavy metals. 23 chocolate bars in the study contained high levels of heavy metals, including well-known manufacturers such as Lindt.For detailed findings and insights, you can explore the study here.
Health Risks from Heavy Metals
Heavy metals such as cadmium and lead pose a health risk, especially if consumed over a long period of time. Cadmium is a known carcinogen and can damage the kidneys and affect the bone system. Lead, on the other hand, is associated with neurological disorders, especially in children, as well as high blood pressure and other chronic diseases.
Experts Recommend: Moderate Consumption
Experts recommend enjoying chocolate in moderation, focusing on the origin and quality to minimize risks from heavy metal contamination. Choose options with lower cocoa content, trusted sourcing, and certifications like organic or fair trade. A varied selection and moderate intake reduce potential exposure effectively.
Detoxify Naturally with MAAX Detox
MAAX Detox is made of 100% Clinoptilolite-zeolite, a natural microporous stone of volcanic origin. Due to its microporous character Zeolite acts like an absorbent sponge.
• Absorbs heavy metals and ammonium
• Binds free radicals in the body
• Relief of the metabolism

Zeolite Binding Effect
Scientific Background
The maax effect in the case of demineralisation
Demineralisation (de- = to remove or reduce) is a permanent shift in the balance of minerals and, therefore, the electrolyte balance.
Demineralisation is a change, impairment or delay in the balance of elements (electrolyte balance). It is caused, for example, by an excess of so-called contaminant ions (lead, mercury, nitrate, nitrogen oxide etc.) taking up the space in which magnesium, potassium, calcium and other minerals should be docked to regulate the electrolyte balance.
This results in the systemic interaction between the individual elements being disrupted. Using the selective ion exchange of MAAX Detox®, which contains over 30 minerals, it is not just toxins which are bound and removed. Urgently required essential minerals are also supplied to the human body.
As a result, the mineral-electro-metabolism is normalised again. No other detox product in the world has this property.
SELECTIVE ION EXCHANGE & ADSORPTION
MAAX Detox® is a highly effective mineral of volcanic origin that binds toxins inhaled through pollution or ingested with food, medication or cosmetics. It strongly absorbs heavy metals such as lead, mercury and cadmium as well as metabolic waste products like ammonium. In use, MAAX Detox® has two primary functions: Selective ion exchange and adsorption!
Selective ion exchange causes toxins found in the human body to be strongly attracted to the crystal lattice tubules, whereby the cations present in the tubule (Na+, Mg++, etc.) are preferentially attracted by the electric charges of body substances. Absorption binds the toxins in the crystal lattice system from MAAX Detox® and renders these harmless.
These are then expelled from the body in the stool. Within the context of the ion exchange, the SiO4 found in MAAX Detox® crystal lattice enters the human body and is transferred into colloidal SiO2, which is bioavailable in this form. In this way, SiO2 is integrated into the process of protein synthesis (the creation of proteins) and contribute to cell and tissue regeneration.
