Bentonite Clay- The Latest Detox Rage
What is Bentonite Clay?
Bentonite clay, also known as Montmorillonite clay is composed of ash produced by volcanos. The name, Bentonite stems from the largest known source of clay found in Fort Benton, Wyoming. The name Montmorillonite is derived from the region of France called Montmorillon, where the clay was first discovered.
It has been reported that several indigenous cultures living in regions of the Andes, Central Africa and Australia have consumed Bentonite clay in numerous ways for centuries in order to protect the body from disease. Because the clay is readily available and requires no modern processing, it served (and continues to serve) as a natural and cost-effective way to “detoxify” the body.
