Bentonite Clay

​#WellnessWednesday
Today's tip and topic is on Bentonite Clay!
Healing clay consisting of aged volcanic ash (hello gift from Earth/God!). It holds high concentration of minerals as well as absorbs & removes toxins, heavy metals, impurities and chemicals--which is what I'll be focusing on.
How it works and how it can help-    when wet it changes electrical components & carries a strong negative charge which bonds with positive charged toxins: bad bacteria, free viruses and radicals, fungi, heavy metals, chemicals and molds. The clay then absorbs the toxin & releases its minerals for the body's use.
In turn helping with digestive issues (gas,irregularity, acid reflux, etc), skin & allergy issues, recovering from illnesses,while providing minerals and balancing the body's pH (chronic diseases, bacteria, viruses, all pathogens exist & thrive in an environment that is acidic!). For more info on the science of how it works including how it acts as a sponge and magnet, see this link! 
An Arizona University study shows that Bentonite clay is effective in killing MRSA, E Coli, Salmonella, and many others!

Fun facts: Many native cultures would carry balls of the dried clay in their bags & dissolve a small amount in water with meals to prevent poisoning from any toxins!
Interesting to observe animals in nature seeking out earth & clay to consume when they are ill.
Is safe in pregnancy, helping alliviate nausea and eating 500mg can provide as much as 80% calcium needed daily!

I love Bentonite for both internally and externally. I've used as a poultice for my son's skin to completely heal infected slivers and irritation overnight. I add to my magnesium foot soak weekly! You can use as a toothpaste, daily detox drink (wait an hr before eating or 2hrs medications. Remember to drink with plenty of water) , even use as baby powder and mastitis wrap! 

Even if you live by the book. Eating healthy, exercising, etc.. We all need a weekly (at least) liver and body detox!! (I will talk about this more at the Retreat!!) Bentonite Clay is an excellent staple for your home!
