Hi All!
Bentonite is an aluminum silicate, and thus is really a organized form of
quartz crystal: Al2O3 + 4SiO2 + nH2O ( hydrated bentonite, food grade ).
It is widely used in many, many industries.
However, what makes it unique for consideration in natural medicine are its
very unique properties. Bentonite has an extremely dense makeup - each gram
of bentonite covers a surface area of over 400 square meters.
When properly hydrated, it creates and sustains its own subtle
electromagnetic field ( negatively charged particles ). It has extremely
powerful sorptive properties, i.e. it attracts and holds to its surface many
toxic substances.
Via it's many properties, a high quality green clay can eliminate an
infection in the body about 600 times faster than colloidal silver ( when
used externally ). Used with understanding, it can speed tissue healing by
over 60% in even the most serious wounds imaginable. However, its method of
action is different than colloidal silver.
Extreme amounts of clay used in a bath have been known to help the body
detox from severe heavy metal poisoning ( one can tell, because if it works,
the clay turns black ).
U.S. Army studies show that bentonite may be a successful treatment for
exposure to chemical warfare. One Army emergency livestock protocol calls
for immediate adminstration of bentonite internally to counter effects of
radiation poisoning in livestock ( food sources ).
In fact, bentonite was the choice substance dumped by the ton on top of the
Chernobyl nuclear plant after its untimely demise.
The natural green clays were the prime ingredient in them embolming process
of the ancient Egyptians. Cleoptra's fine skin condition was most likely
due to secret blends of fine clays and exotic oils.
Used internally, bentonite is one of the most powerful detoxifying agents in
nature. It neutralizes acids in the stomach almost immediately upon
ingestion. It detoxifies the intestinal tracts. It acts directly upon the
liver, slowly restoring it to full function with a proper diet. Although it
is considered an inert substance, through long term use microscopic
particles of clay ARE eventually accepted into the liver, and delivered into
the bloodstream, where it fixes free oxygen, elminating free radicals.
When used immediately in severe trauma situations ( externally ), clay packs
significantly reduce tissue damage associated with swelling.
I'll never forget the first story I ever heard on clay healing. In fact,
the individual in question received a "most valueable citizen" town award
for the incident.
A father's son wrecked quite badly in a motorcycle race, and it tore up one
of his legs quite badly. He was rushed to the hospital, but developed a
severe infection that turned gangrene despite medical care. After several
days of observation and treatment, the doctor made the decision that the leg
would be amputated the next morning.
The son had called his father, who lived in another part of the country. The
father arrived at the hospital late that night. Upon hearing that the leg
would be amputated, he grabbed his son and carried him straight out of the
hospital. They drove for many hours, to a remote part of the Mojave desert,
just outside of Death Valley, California, where the natural hotspring waters
at one time had a rating of the second best in the world. The area is rich
in a natural high quality bentonite.
The father brought his son to the oldtimer local. They and several friends
took a large garbage bin, and filled it with hydrated clay. When the son
figured out he was supposed to stick his LEG in that MUD, he resisted with
all of his strength! It took four men to force him to do so, and to hold
him in it long enough for the pain to start to subside.
They kept the leg in the solution for around 72 hours. Upon removing the
leg, and gently ( very gently ) washing the clay off, the infection had been
COMPLETELY eradicated, and the leg was well on its way to healing.
Exactly 17 days later, the son was back on the track, racing again as if
nothing had happened.
While this story may seem far fetched, I've personally seen similiar
results. As far as I'm personally concerned, wound care in this day and age
is nothing short of barbaric ( no offense to those wound care specialists on
the list! ).
I remember dealing with some nurses who just couldn't WAIT to get a pair of
pliers onto some staples embedded in granuluar tissue ( from a skin graft
donor site ). I talked them into leaving the site alone, and used bentonite
to extract the staples naturally, which it did in under 72 hours ( I didn't
tell THEM what I did, though ) - painless and effortless.
I wish I had a before image of what the donor sites looked like before I
began using silver and clay, but there is some information on the subject
available at this url:

The areas were "littered" with small infections and inflammations.
I'm in the process of extensive film work, because complete tutorials, and
graphic totutorials, need to be done to understand how to properly use clay
for all manner of difficult situations. It is easy to cause damage to
tissues or even inhibit healing if not used correctly.
The first exhibition should be up shortly... How to prepare a natural clay
for use in healing.
So much to do - so little time!
