BENTONITE CLAY
Whenever a person first hears the word “clay’, they immediately start thinking about their childhood arts and crafts classes, where they may even have mistakenly gulped a lump of clay, apart from the fun they had. The use of calcium bentonite clay that is generated and refined from volcanic ash has become more and more popular as the world is getting to know about its many advantages and health benefits.
Bentonite clay is known to be rich in many organic minerals like calcium, potassium, magnesium, iron, copper, silica, and sodium. These minerals are effective in providing many skin, hair, and health benefits that can make a person look ten years younger.
The various benefits of bentonite clay are:
As an internal supplement
With the many minerals and organic chemicals that constitute Bentonite clay, it serves as an effective means to replenish and rejuvenate a person’s body by alkalizing the internal organs. This helps in reducing gastric problems like ulcers, vomiting, stomach acidity, nausea, and constipation.
The minerals that are found in bentonite clay also help in cleaning a person’s guts by removing impurities like toxins, heavy metals, and other germs and impurities. It also helps a person to experience proper bowel movement and relief from stomach and intestinal problems.
A person can ingest bentonite clay by purchasing edible bentonite clay and mixing it with smoothies, shakes, and even fruit juices. Having a teaspoon of bentonite clay with fruit juice will leave you feeling light, relaxed and energised enough to face the world.
As a skin enhancer
Bentonite clay has many minerals which provide the skin with many healing properties to make a person look many years younger. People have been using bentonite clay for years to make face masks that are applied with the aid of milk or honey over the face for a few minutes.
After the mask is removed, a person will be able to see the clear difference in their skin; drawing a comparison of what it was like before and what it looks like now. Beauticians and people have confirmed that it makes the skin glow.
Beauticians have said that a face mask made from bentonite clay contains many oxidants that allow it to extract germs from the skin, especially the face. Impurities in the skin that might lead to blackheads, pimples, and acne can be mitigated. Bentonite clay face masks will also make the skin softer and feel younger, due to the glow that will be radiated from a person’s face.
A person in their entire body can feel the same effect once they use bath soaps that are made of bentonite clay. Skin problems that are faced by people having oily skin can be reduced by using bentonite clay bath soaps. Liquid bentonite clay is also available that can be used by people that prefer to cool off in a bathtub.
To achieve silky smooth and strong hair
Just like using Bentonite clay face masks, hair masks have also appeared in the market as of late that provide similar functions. Many hair masks have been created by companies with the aid of bentonite clay to enhance the strength and length of hair. Applying these products before showering may help you have less hair fall out and breakage.
Bentonite clay is thus an essential substance that has been used by pharmacists and people all over the world to create beauty and healthcare products, to provide the people with higher living standards. The quality of life of the people has increased due to the invention of these products and its subsequent introduction in mass markets.
