Levels of contaminants in Placebo and Verum groups during the osteoporosis TOP study course of 4 years with corresponding reference limits. (A) Concentrations of mercury, cadmium, arsenic, nickel, and aluminum. Statistically lower values were observed in TOP4 in comparison with TOP3 for nickel (post-hoc analysis, p < 0.001). (B) Concentrations of lead in the osteoporosis TOP study course of 4 years. Statistically lower levels of lead were observed in TOP4 comparison with TOP3 (post-hoc analysis, p < 0.001). TOP1-Placebo (without PMA-zeolite supplementation); TOP1-Verum, end of the first year of PMA-zeolite supplementation; TOP2-Verum 2Y, end of the second year of PMA-zeolite supplementation; TOP3-Verum 3Y, end of the third year of PMA-zeolite supplementation; TOP4-Verum 4Y, end of the fourth year of PMA-zeolite supplementation.
