Herbs: Bentonite Clay - powder

  Out of stock

A clay mask draws excess oils and debris to the surface of your skin, boosts circulation to tighten the skin and stimulate blood flow, and whisks away dead skin cells that can clog pores…You can add herbs and essential oils to soothe inflamed, painful skin and fight bacteria that inflame clogged pores into blemishes…

To control itching – A simple “mud pack” made with bentonite clay and enough water to create a thick goo can help control the itch and dry up blisters, herbalists say. Spread the clay over the affected area and let air-dry. Keep it on until the clay wears off or gets itchy. Wash off the residue.

For First Aid – To make a healing pack, mix bentonite clay or baking soda and oatmeal with water and an anti-infection herb (such as garlic, thyme, or calendula) or an herbal tincture. Apply to pimples, boils, or wounds.

Bentonite, also referred to as Montmorillonite, is one of the most effective and powerful healing clays used to treat both internal and external maladies. Bentonite can be used externally as a clay poultice, mud pack or in the bath, and in skin care recipes. Internally, it can be added to water or glazed upon food to help those with sensitive palates. It has a very fine, velveteen feel and is odorless and non-staining.

Its highest power lies in the ability to absorb toxins, impurities, heavy metals and other internal contaminants. Bentonite clay's structure assists it in attracting and soaking up poisons on its exterior wall and then slowly draws them into the interior center of the clay where it is held in a sort of repository. To state it another way, Bentonite is swelling clay. When it becomes mixed with water it rapidly swells open like a highly porous sponge. From here the toxins are drawn into the sponge through electrical attraction and once there, they are bound.

For internal use, start with a teaspoon mixed thoroughly in at least 8 oz. of water. After a few days or so, you may want to increase the amount of clay by a tiny bit (a little goes a long way).

From Our Reading and/or Experience...

  • The internal use of Bentonite clay is an excellent and simple way to do an effective cleanse. Among other benefits, it can reduce body odor, skin blemishes, and digestive track issues of all sorts.
  • The clay can be stirred into water, juice or any other beverage of your choice. It can also be sprinkled on foods or encapsulated.
  • We keep it on hand, among other items, to use internally and externally in case of snake bites or any other kind of poisoning.
  • Bentonite clay can be used to benefit anyone: men, women (including before, during or after pregnancy, and nursing), children, and animals.
  • It can be used as often as you would like, and in any way you choose. Just remember to consume LOTS of water while using it internally.

bentonite clay-powder
by evelyn young on Sep 1, 2006

Are you saying that if a person is bitten by a snake, that you could make a poultice and apply it to the site to draw out the venom? And would you take it internally simultaneously? I am fairly new to herbs, and I am so grateful for your experience. Thank you

    Yes, Bentonite clay, activated charchoal, plantain, etc. are all used internally and externally to draw out poisons from the body, such as venom from a snake bite. We've learned this and much more from reading our books.

Bentonite clay powder for stings
by 1ofeach on Sep 13, 2006

Just today I received my order of Bentonite clay from the Bulk Herb Store. My children were outside playing when the package came in the mail. About half an hour later my son came in complaining of sharp pain on his shoulder. Poor dear, it was his first sting. I immediately opened the bentonite clay, mixed a little with some water and applied it to his shoulder. Within minutes he said the pain was better. Now he's back to playing outside.

Praise be to God for His perfect timing, and for His gifts of herbs!

Scalp

Could you make the "mudpack" to put on your scalp or would it not be a good idea for your hair? I ask this to put on the whole scalp for like psoriasis.
Thank you!

Morning Sickness Cure
by Christy on Nov 14, 2006

Someone recomended this to me when I was pregnant with the third. I took one teaspoon of clay in a glass of water in the evening and in the morning when I woke up my morning sickness was non existent! From then on I took it twice a day until I was well past my third tri-mester. Adding lemon to the water helps the taste but it really isn't that bad.

Morning Sickness

I also take Bentonite Clay to releave morning sickness- I'm 14 weeks pregnant and have found it to help greatly in relieving nausea. I took it with juice every morning the first few weeks and, boy, could I tell if I missed a day! It works great.

Bentonite Clay
by Laura from TN on Sep 9, 2007

Just a word of caution on mixing this valuable and miraculous clay.. NO METAL! The metal changes the chemical compound of clay. It can be used on all animals, I use it on horses, dogs, cats, humans. I drink the clay gel mix... it is a wonderful product but it must not be mixed with a metal spoon or bowl, metal is a no- no. I use wooden spoons and have found that the best water to use is distilled water as it enhances the clay with it's natural ability to eliminate toxins and drive them from the body. I have been using bentonite clay for over 20 years.. It is the best living clay there is... Thanks

I first ordered Sleepy Time Tea for my husband that had been stressed, and was having insomnia. He has been sleeping wonderfully since he started drinking a cup of this tea every night about an hour before bedtime. Also, my fussy and hyper 2 year old takes it too...it puts her down within minutes after bedtime stories and prayer.

This time, I ordered the other Sweet Sleep tea for them and Rise and Shine Tea for me. I have a 2 month old baby, and am having a difficult time keeping up with the 2 year old's energy in the morning. Thanks again. Your herbs are of great quality and are wonderful. God bless your work and your hands.

PS. my parents are from Brazil, and while they were here visiting they enjoyed your herbs. I am sending some to them this time, so they can enjoy it there.
