Bentonite Clay – Calcium – Montmorillonite

Bentonite Clay – Detox

Bentonite is a natural powdered sedimentary clay (also known as montmorillonite) that comes from ancient deposits of volcanic ash. It is one of the best detoxifying agents available and has been recognized as such for centuries by native people around the world for thousands of years.

Bentonite Clay for Children:

Bentonite has many uses when it comes to children and one common use is as an addition to a warm bath.  This is due to the bentonite being able to draw toxins such as fluoride from the water.  Bentonite Clay also draws toxins from the skin making it a very effective detox soak.

The clay minerals are negatively charged whereas toxins are positively charged, hence the clay’s attraction works like a magnet, attracting and leaching toxins out of the body. When mixed with water, bentonite swells up (this is imperceptible to the naked eye) and becomes very porous like a sponge. The electrical and molecular components change and produce an electrical charge. The toxins are drawn into these spaces by electrical attraction and bound fast.

It is an effective and cleansing clay if used externally as a face mask, in the bath, or externally as a clay poultice/wrap. This is a premium clay, well used and loved by many customers over many years. Please ensure you buy clay of high and pure quality.

To use as a bentonite face mask — Mix 1-2 teaspoons with enough water to make a paste and apply to the skin. Leave to work for 10-15 minutes and rinse with clean warm water and pat the skin dry. Add a couple of drops of tea tree oil for added benefit for clearing spots.

To use in the bath — Add 2-3 tablespoons to the bath and mix thoroughly.
