This Bentonite clay is formed under sea beds from volcanic ash. It is harvested from a natural deposit in Australia, dried and then milled producing a finely ground soft powder. No chemicals have been used during the processing – resulting in clay that is Certified organic. Sodium Bentonite clay is negatively charged and can be used to assist in detoxing. It can be added to drinks, used as a mouth wash, applied to the skin or utilised in the bath.

Bentonite clay can be used externally in many ways or consumed orally. 

Internally, you can take 1/2 to 1 teaspoon once per day, as many days of the week as you’d like. We recommend that you don’t consume BC internally for more than four weeks in a row.

After testing your skin’s reaction, you can use BC on your skin (or hair) several times per week for best results.
