Also known as Montmorillonite clay powder, Bentonite is one of the most powerful and healing clays. Bentonite Clay is made from Calcium Bentonite Clay and is formed when Volcanic Ash ages, usually in the presence of water. Bentonite was discovered in Fort Benton, Wyoming, and name after the place itself. It is now being found around the world, with The United States of America being the largest producer. Calcium Bentonite clay is an absorbent clay that binds with the negative particles or ions and help to detoxify the body. It has been used as a laxative in traditional medicine as well as a digestion aid.
Bentonite clay powder is cream to brown in colour, and has fine, velveteen feel to it. It is odorless and non-staining. Organic Bentonite clay powder carries a negative charge which bonds with the positive charge in toxins. When it comes in contact with toxin, heavy metal or chemical, the clay absorbs the toxin and releases minerals for body to use.
Bentonite Clay although useful even when used solely, is still very popularly added in skin care products, as well as in hair masks, as it absorbs all the dirt, excess oil, sebum and toxins present in the skin. It is added to Soaps, Handwashes, Body Gels and bathing products. It is often added to Sunscreen to enhance its performance and make it more effective. It is also beneficial in treating body rashes, redness, itching and diaper rashes in babies as well.
