the health benefits of eating clay

Writer's picture: Amy PowerAmy Power


Have you ever considered eating clay? Clay is a form of mud therapy. 


What is clay? “Clay is a soft mineral substance, a product of volcanic ash that has been weathered and aged by ancient seas that are now dry lands. Clay is the smallest with the finest in grain of mineral particles of Mother Earths' crust. These particles contain silica and can be very structured in shape, like  our bodies” (Hawkins, 2023).  


Clay and Its Uses 

  • Assist with fasting

  • Brush teeth

  • Bug bites

  • Drink with water 

  • Hair and skin


The cool thing as clay enters the body it knows the way, a direction to take away what is no longer needed. 


Clay Types 

  • Attapulgite

  • Bentonite 

  • Fuller's earth

  • Kaolin

  • Montmorillonite


If you are interested in exploring clay, consult with someone who knows their stuff to find a good source and a way to add it to your alternative practices. It may be 2-4 weeks until you notice a difference in your health. 


In light,

Amy
