I correct myself: Bentonite clay is primarily used in the U.S. for oil well drilling operations, as a slurry which is pumped into the well.
It is also used in beauty packs. The brand I use (internally) is (get this) "Aztec Secret / Indian Healing Clay -- World's Most Powerful Facial/Deep Pore Cleansing!" The clay is mined in Death Valley, CA. I paid $5.75 for a one-pound container at a Chinese alternative nutrition drug store in New York City. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bill Missett" <miss...@prodigy.net.mx> To: <silver-list@eskimo.com> Sent: Sunday, September 29, 2002 3:34 PM Subject: Re: CS>reply from a company selling 500ppm CS > Bentonite clay is used primarily (in the U.S. anyway) for facial clay beauty > pack application, because of its well-known ability to cleanse and detox > through its high absorption characteristic (which is the same way it > deodorizes cat boxes). > > I use a variety made for beauty use, because it is ground to an extremely > fine powder. > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "sol" <pcar...@wyoming.com> > To: <silver-list@eskimo.com> > Sent: Sunday, September 29, 2002 3:33 PM > Subject: Re: CS>reply from a company selling 500ppm CS > > > > Well, that is extremely interesting as I had never heard of anyone > consuming > > bentonite clay, unless they inhaled some while cleaning the catbox! > > However, I am violently allergic to iodine, yet worry whether the total > > lack of it in my diet for the last 17 years is causing harm..... > > Where would one get food grade bentonite clay? > > Also, if you drink/ eat salty stuff at or near the time you take your CS > > does the CS react with salt in the stomach to form silver chloride?
