The raw material used to make NCD comes from zeolite mines in Montana and Texas, which are renowned for their exceptionally high purity.

 

How is the zeolite mined?  What environmental impact does the mining have?

 

Zeolites are formed in areas where there was volcanic activity several thousand years ago. The zeolite used in NCD is hand-mined, causing no damage to the surrounding environment. The zeolite is micronized at the mine site (pulverized to a fine powder and filtered through a fine mesh screen), then placed in barrels and transported to the manufacturer.

 

Are workers exposed to any health or safety risks in mining the zeolite and manufacturing NCD?

 

The sites where the zeolite is mined are specific for their sheet-like zeolites, which are considered to be completely safe – even when inhaled. These mines are U.S. sites and are governed by U.S. labor laws. The company that has the exclusive right to Natural Cellular Defense and its patented zeolite technology manufactures NCD at a facility adhering to certified Good Manufacturing Practices as set forth by the Food and Drug Administration. That company does not control the activity at the mines.

 

Does NCD need refrigeration after the bottle is opened?

 

No.
