How to Use Bentonite Clay at Home to Detox Your Colon
Bentonite clay, also known as Aluminum Phyllosilicate, is a lightweight clay that is extracted from volcanic ash throughout the world. It was used heavily by natives in helping to alleviate distress of the digestive system. This clay is edible, and its properties assist in absorbing toxin-laden water from the digestive system as it passes through. This activity may remove heavy metal deposits and acidic fluids from the walls of the intestinal tract, thus preventing them from being absorbed into the blood stream.
