The effect of clinoptilolite zeolite on tumor diseases in dogs:
A study from Zagreb
In veterinary medicine, the search for effective treatment methods for tumors in dogs is of great importance. A promising study was conducted at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in Zagreb under the direction of Prof. Dr. sc. Ljiljana Bedrica . The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of clinoptilolite zeolite for various tumors in dogs. In the study, 51 dogs were thoroughly examined and subsequently treated with clinoptilolite.
And all these studies have led, among other things, to the approval of clinoptilolite zeolite as a feed additive . Thank you for that!
Mammary gland tumors
The treatment of mammary gland tumors was studied in 10 bitches aged 6 to 14 years. Particularly remarkable results were achieved with adenocarcinomas: Smaller tumors disappeared completely after 3 to 4 weeks of clinoptilolite administration, while larger tumors shrank to half their size after 4 weeks. Mixed mammary gland carcinomas showed no reduction in size after 3 months but remained stable. One year after removal of these tumors, no recurrence symptoms occurred.
Skin and mucosal tumors
Ten dogs, aged 6.5 to 13 years, were treated for skin and mucosal tumors. All tumors disappeared after a certain period of clinoptilolite administration, but recurred after discontinuation of the drug. One week after resumption of administration, the tumors regressed.
Prostate tumors
The study of prostate tumors involved six dogs. Symptoms of the disease disappeared completely just one week after starting clinoptilolite treatment.
Lymphomas
The effect of clinoptilolite on lymphomas was studied in eight dogs. All dogs showed significant improvement after 3-4 days and returned to normal behavior after one week. After one month, their blood counts had also normalized.
Lung tumors
Lung tumors were diagnosed in three dogs. After one month of clinoptilolite treatment, the tumors shrank by half. Two dogs survived for another year, while one dog, who took the drug irregularly, died after three months.
Osteosarcomas
Osteosarcomas were diagnosed in three dogs. One dog died two months after diagnosis, while two dogs have been taking clinoptilolite for one and a half years and are still alive.
Various other tumors
In the case of various other tumors, an improvement in the general condition was observed in all dogs.
Conclusion: Clinoptilolite zeolite - hope for dogs
The results of this study are promising and suggest that clinoptilolite could be an effective adjunct to the treatment of tumors in dogs. While some tumor types disappeared completely or shrank significantly, the dogs' overall health improved in all cases. These results offer hope and open new perspectives in veterinary oncology.

So: I found this article on Research Gate. For those who like to read the original. Clinoptilolite zeolite was used, among other things, on 22 dogs suffering from various tumors.
Twenty-two dogs were used in the experiments. They were of different breeds and weighed between 3 and 42 kg. The animals were of both sexes and between 5 and 14 years old. The data for the 14 dogs in which improvement was observed are presented in Table 2 and can be found on pages 19-21 of the study.
I have translated the ABSTRACT of the study for you:
- "Natural silicate materials, including zeolite clinoptilolite, have demonstrated diverse biological activities and have been successfully used as a vaccine adjuvant and for the treatment of diarrhea . We report a new use of finely ground clinoptilolite as a potential adjuvant in cancer therapy. Treatment of mice and dogs with various tumor types resulted in improved overall health, prolonged lifespan, and a reduction in tumor size. Topical application to skin cancer in dogs effectively reduced tumor formation and growth. Toxicology studies in mice and rats showed no adverse effects. In vitro studies showed that finely ground clinoptilolite inhibits protein kinase B (c-Akt), induces the expression of the tumor suppressor proteins p21WAF1/CIP1 and p27KIP1, and blocks cell growth in several cancer cell lines. These data suggest that clinoptilolite treatment could influence cancer growth by attenuating survival signals." and tumor suppressor genes in treated cells."

I have here another study by Prof. Dr. sc. Ljiljana Bedrica . It demonstrates the healing properties of zeolite on dogs' skin after burns and, above all, how a feed optimized with zeolite supports the healing process. All of this research was conducted at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in Zagreb.
VIDEO : Here you can watch Prof. Dr. Bedrica , veterinarian and researcher. She talks about zeolite. In her native language, for those of you who understand Croatian.
Conclusion: Thanks to the veterinarians and researchers
Our beloved animals are more than just companions—they are an expression of our love for life itself. The groundbreaking study on the effectiveness of clinoptilolite in canine tumors, conducted at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in Zagreb, gives us and our four-legged friends new hope.
Special thanks go to the dedicated veterinarians and researchers who made this groundbreaking work possible. Their tireless dedication and deep understanding of the needs of our animals have led to these remarkable results.
We also extend our sincere thanks to Mr. Timohir Lelas , who developed the tribomechanical grinding method for zeolite, or rather, he created it, or developed prototypes to maturity. And to Prof. Hecht , who patiently and clearly explained to us how zeolite stimulates self-regulation in our animals' bodies. Their insights and dedication have contributed significantly to the recognition of clinoptilolite as a valuable adjunct in the treatment of canine tumors.
This research is a ray of hope for all animal lovers and shows how science and love can go hand in hand to improve the lives of our beloved animals. Thanks to everyone involved and to clinoptilolite zeolite for the hope it gives us.

Diesen Untersuchungsergebnissen wollte ich immer schon einen eigenen Blog widmen. Jetzt ist es soweit gewesen. An dieser Stelle unser Danke an Frau Doktor Vesna Lelas für ihre Forschung mit Zeolith an Hunden. Dass Zeolith unterstützend wirkt, ist mittlerweile recht bekannt. Wenn eine Untersuchung mit Zahlen vorliegt ist es dann wunderbar!
