Bentonite Clay Food Grade Powder 2 Lb – Natural Heavy Metal Detox & Pore Cleansing | Indian Healing | DIY Hair & Facial Mask Treatment for Oily Skin | Toothpaste, Deo, Bath & Foot Soak

I recently purchased the FOSSIL POWER Bentonite Clay Food Grade Powder 2lb bag, and I’ve been thoroughly impressed with its quality and versatility. As someone who values natural, high-quality products for both skincare and wellness, this bentonite clay has quickly become a staple in my routine. Quality and Purity: The product is marketed as 100% pure sodium bentonite clay, and it certainly feels & smells authentic. It’s finely milled, smooth, and free from any noticeable impurities, which is critical for a food-grade product. Knowing it’s responsibly sourced and packaged in the USA gives me confidence in its quality. The resealable bag is a thoughtful touch, keeping the clay fresh and free from moisture, which is especially handy for long-term storage. Versatility: This clay is incredibly versatile. I’ve used it for DIY facial masks, toothpaste, and even as a detox bath soak. For facials, I followed the instructions to mix 3 parts water (or apple cider vinegar) to 1 part clay, applied it for 15-20 minutes, and rinsed it off with warm water. My skin felt noticeably cleaner, smoother, and less oily after just one use. It’s particularly great for tackling clogged pores and giving my complexion a refreshed look. I also tried it as a toothpaste by mixing a small amount with water and a drop of peppermint oil. It left my teeth feeling clean without the harsh abrasiveness of some commercial toothpastes. While I haven’t used it internally (as the packaging advises against ingestion for this specific product), I appreciate that it’s food-grade, which speaks to its purity for external uses. Ease of Use: The instructions provided are clear and straightforward, making it easy for beginners to use. Whether for skin, hair, or other applications, the clay mixes well and applies smoothly. For sensitive skin or hair, the recommendation to leave it on for only 5 minutes is helpful to avoid irritation. Overall: I highly recommend the FOSSIL POWER Bentonite Clay Food Grade Powder 2lb bag for anyone looking to incorporate a natural, multi-purpose product into their wellness or skincare routine. It’s pure, effective, and budget-friendly, with a wide range of uses that make it a great addition to any household. Whether you’re using it for detox, skincare, or DIY projects, it delivers on its promises. I’ll definitely be repurchasing!

I purchased this Bentonite clay almost against my will. First, I am fairly confident I have a Candida infection in my gut. What's unclear is if there is something else in there too. We'll just have to see when the test results come back. What is known is I have a gut infection. And all the products for Candida work for me. Of course the problem with killing anything that resides in your gut is the toxins produced by the die off. First, just having something burst their innards straight into your gut will release something undesirable but worst, most of these critters produce special death toxins which are a defensive mechanism meant to poison whatever killed them. Ahhh! It's working! It felt as if there were something burning in my gut all the time. I started off with activated charcoal which was helpful. But it seemed to increase my diarrhea. The more I took, the more the gut felt better but the worse the diarrhea. Bummer. So I switched to the bentonite clay. I was physically repulsed by the thought of eating this stuff and it took a while. So, first I discovered I have been paying way too much for clay facials. Way. Too. Much. This stuff makes a superb facial mask and if you mix it up warm really comforting too. I like to use a 5:1 ratio of water to clay. to make a thinner, easier to spread warm goo. Finally, I tried it internally as the gut pain was reaching new heights. My first few attempts, I failed to mix it sufficiently getting some lumpiness. Drinking it lumps and all - seemed helpful but didn't live up to the rave reviews. It did work better than the activated charcoal. The next day, I felt almost constipated. After that, I got used to the clay. New procedure - double the amount of water - shake, rest. Repeat until the clay dissolves. Usually, the entire procedure takes about 1- 2 hours and 3 shakes. Much better. The larger volume of water seems to help because it spreads the clay over the entire gut really quickly. About 5-10 minutes after I drank it the pain receded. After this, I rather looked forward to drinking the clay. I even managed to tolerate the grittiness in my mouth and to look forward to it instead of spitting frantically. But the clay is really just a bandaid. Yes, it absorbs toxins. Yes, it helps you form stools. Yes, it helps your gut heal because it relieves the assault on your GI track. But it's not enough. I noticed that my diarrhea resolved but only in the presence of clay. I was in just as much pain the rest of the time. My problem? I'd stopped the damage but I wasn't providing the gut with enough support for healing to occur. So assuming your troubles and mine are the same (yeah, you might want to talk to a doctor about that : ) Heal the gut: 2-3 gm of glutamate (absorbed by the gut as fuel) Probiotics (Saccharomyces boulardii will fight inflammation in the gut) Fiber (to feed the probiotic - PGX is the best fiber out there - and yes, it made a huge difference for me) Resistant starch (Bobs Red Mill unmodified potato starch) - feeds your probiotics which breaks it down into short-chain fatty acids. Some of these fatty acids can by used directly by the gut for energy and they fight gut inflammation. These starches do NOT raise blood glucose levels. Collagen: the gut needs collagen to heal. You can get collagen by drinking bone broth or by using collagen supplements. Prop up broken digestion (constant gas, bloating, GERD could be a sign of low stomach acid, on the other hand, if your stomach acid is fine, you could give yourself an ulcer with this stuff.)

I use this clay for a variety of things such as detox, insect bites, and facial masks. There are claims that Bentonite clay is helpful in detoxification from within, working as a binder to pull out toxins. One of my kids brought home Pinworms that ended up circulating through our house for months. Eventually, we were all able to clear them with the help of Bentonite Clay, PinRx, and Black Walnut and Wormood. The plan was to k;ll/immobilize the parasites with PinRx and Black Walnut, then remove them along with their toxins using a binder (bentonite clay). Even though we are parasite free, I still occasionally like to include it for a week at a time to detox. When I drink it, I add a heaping teaspoon into a full Nutribullet cup of water (I think it’s 24oz). I find this ratio works best for me. If you don’t like the taste, try squeezing fresh lemon into your drink. Immediately after pouring the clay into the water, it forms a clumps (some float and some sink to the bottom). I will soak it for an hour to let the clumps fully dissolve into the water, stirring occasionally. After an hour the clumps will have dissolved, but I do still notice some sediment left at the bottom. I also use this clay to relieve insect bites. We have fire ants and they bite our feet when barefoot in the yard. Sometimes the bites can become extremely swollen, warm to the touch, and itchy. I find that making a thick paste and applying directly to the area instantly cools and soothes the bite. I reapply as often as necessary and it brings down the swelling. Not completely, but significantly less. The clay also works wonderfully for face masks; leaving my skin feeling super exfoliated and smooth. It creates a pulsing feeling when it’s drying. Supposedly, it’s pulling impurities to the surface? After washing and drying my face, I follow up with castor oil or coconut oil to rehydrate the skin. This stuff really is great! I try to take a natural approach to everything as a first line of defense and I’m very happy with the outcomes. !! I would also like to add: When using bentonite clay, DO NOT use any metal utensils, straws, or bowls as this can disrupt the charge of the clay !!

Best stuff in the world, for detoxing.

It seems to be a quality clay , ive only used it in a foot soak , I purchased it for use as a binder for a cleanse. Im hopeful it will work perfectly

This stuff is great for all sorts of things. You can ingest this to help detoxify your system. Mix a tablespoon with 8oz water, shake it up, drink every day. You can use this as a detoxifiing face mask mix with water to make a paste, apply to face let dry. Then take off with wet wash cloth. You can add a few tablespoons to a 32oz glass jar full of water and shake it up let it sit for a few days till it absorbs the water, shake it to make smoothie consistency, poor in your bath water w/epsons salt to draw out toxins from your body. You can put in on your scalp to draw out toxins, make a thick paste put on roots cover w/plastic till dry rinse w/warm water. You can make a poultice by mix w/filtered water into very thick paste. Mix until smooth. Add as much powder to make thick. You can mix in any size glass jar. Filtered water first 3/4 full. Start w/ 2 TBL spoons shake till mixed. Let it sit for few days shake some more, and add more powder until thick let sit days until thick. Once it's thick and smooth no lumps. Cut an old sheet into big enough ovals to fit over your kidneys. Put the smooth bentonite paste on sheet piece 1/4" thick. Spread with wooden spoon. Place the sheet piece w/benotite spread directly on your skin (kidney area) wrap with plastic cling wrap around your waist a few times to keep secure. Sit with heating pad for few hours. This will draw out toxins from kidneys, you will feel movement of toxins being sucked out. Always mix in glass never use metal utensils with this product. Great stuff.

This bentonite clay truly works. I had a bone spur on a toe, couldn't wear shoes. In a lot of pain. Wrapped it in gauge and clay overnight. Next day pain was gone. Wore shoes the next day and no pain.

I have used this clay before but not by this brand. Bentonite clay has so many benefits to reap. I like the packaging. It has a light grey color, texture is very fine, I barely even feel any grit. I can't wait to use it. It smells like nothing. When I rubbed the clay by itself on my fingers, my skin felt smooth. Definitely ordering more of this from this brand.
