Abstrakt: Among the factors that cause gastrointestinal disorders in animals, along with microbial pathogens (bacteria, viruses), a major impact have the factors related to diet and stress. The use of effective alternative treatments of natural origin has really materialized. In recent decades, natural products have expanded and the overuse of synthetic drugs has been reduced because of their decreased therapeutic efficacy. Zeolites are volcanic compounds with a porous structure and a complex chemical composition. Their mineralogical, structural and physicochemical peculiarities underlie several applications in many fields, of which the biomedical one has a major impact on the prevention and therapy of gastric and intestinal pathologies. In gastrointestinal pathology, zeolites are used for their adsorbent and absorbent properties, which have been shown to be effective in the treatment of oral intoxications, diarrheal syndromes, and other digestive pathologies.. This review is intended to document and deepen the prophylactic-therapeutic actions of zeolites in gastrointestinal disorders in various animal species, their biomedical potential not being fully explored.
