Megamin conclusions

The quality of preclinical and clinical research is poor. At present there is no evidence of a direct anticancer effect of Megamin – tribomechanical activated Zeolite Clinoptilolite (TMAZ) in humans. Also, there is no evidence that TMAZ could be used to lessen side effects of chemotherapy or as a remedy that acts as a symptom reliever for cancer patients. Megamin is not authorized as a medication but as a dietary supplement. Dietary supplements are not accepted to have pharmacological effects as dictated by European Union regulation (2002/46/EG).

Although data exist about safety of zeolites for oral exposures, TMAZ could potentially cause deficiencies of trace elements or disorders of homeostasis.
