Bentonite clay is composed of aged volcanic ash found in different parts of the world, and it has been used in treating medical conditions since earliest recorded history. The largest and most popular deposit is found near Fort Benton, Wyoming – hence the name bentonite clay. Some of the many health benefits of bentonite clay are:
*Cleansing the liver, colon and skin
*Balancing bacteria in the digestive tract
*Improving nutrient assimilation
*Strengthening the immune system
In addition, bentonite clay can also eliminate food allergies, food poisoning, colitis, viral infections and parasites. It is an effective treatment for arthritis, cataracts, diabetic neuropathy, pain, wounds, diarrhea, stomach ulcers, animal and insect bites, acne, anemia and alcoholism. It can be included in natural toothpaste.
Bentonite clay is effective in treating all digestive conditions and aids in weight loss. It also re-mineralizes cells and tissues, alkalizes the body and is very effective in protecting us from radiation poisoning.
Bentonite clay contains montmorillonite, the primary mineral thought to be responsible for its beneficial qualities. It also contains magnesium and approximately 67 other trace minerals.
The properties of particles in bentonite clay and how they are distributed contribute greatly to its curative properties. These particles contain a negative charge that attracts all types of toxins and pathogens, including bacteria, toxins, metals and pesticides, all of which have a positive charge.
