Bentonite Clay is composed of volcanic ash. Bentonite Clay is also known as Montmorillonite Clay, which stems from the region of France called Montmorillon, where the clay was first discovered. Today the clay is mined from many countries around the world. We supply a Natural Sodium Bentonite powder which originates from South America.
As Bentonite Clay is a highly adsorbant mineral it makes an excellent face mask, body treatment and bathing agent.
When mixed with water it swells up and becomes porous. This process causes it to become electrically charged, drawing out toxins from the skin which can then be washed away.
Bentonite Clay can be found in many beauty products.
For oily skin, mix 1 tablespoon with a little water to create a thick paste and apply to the face and neck, avoiding sensitive areas. After 15-20 minutes rinse with warm water, dry and apply moisturiser. Repeat 1-2 times per week to help maintain a healthy complexion. For problem areas, you may need to double the amount used. For any other uses refer to a professional guide.
This product is suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
Our Bentonite Clay is mined, passed under large magnets and then milled to the correct particle size. The material isn't cleaned by washing at any part of the process.
If you have a medical condition, are taking medication, are pregnant or nursing, always seek advice from a qualified healthcare professional before taking any food supplement. Discontinue use if any adverse reaction occurs.
Current FSA guidelines suggest that Bentonite Clay in general is not suitable for internal consumption especially for pregnant women.

We want you to benefit from the best possible food supplements. Therefore, we strenuously avoid the addition of harmful bulking agents, fillers and flow enhancers, such as magnesium stearate. Other additives such as stabilizers and preservatives extend shelf life but additives will often impact on the effectiveness of the product. At times a carrier is needed to help certain powder ingredients flow through our machines and in these cases we use rice flour — natural and healthy. Therefore, you know as a consumer that when you buy from Health Leads, what you see on the label is what you get.
