French green clay (Montmorillonite) is quarry mined from naturally
occurring deposits in France and is untreated, with a beautiful light green
color and soft texture and is sometimes called sea clay. It is
by far one of the most effective and most used mineral skin clays found in the
world. Green clay owes its coloration to two very important factors: iron oxide
and decomposed plant matter and is made up of: montmorillonite, as well as
dolomite, magnesium, calcium, potassium, manganese, phosphorus, zinc, aluminum,
silicon, copper, selenium, and cobalt- all alkalizing to the blood and tissues and
foundational in the production of other elements through nuclear
transformations or biological transformations.
The natural green tones found in this luxurious clay are from the
very cycles of life that the earth uses to regenerate herself. Unlike other
clays where key elements work in symbiosis off of each other, French green clay
contains several elements which act as their own "body," meaning that each
element is responsible for working the outer epidermis in its own way and in
dispensing their biological constituents as best as possible.
Contrary to popular belief, not all French green clay originates
in France. At one time, all of the world's supply was mined in France. As this
clay became more popular, similar deposits were found in Wyoming, Montana,
China, and other European countries. These varieties are all marketed under the
moniker "French green clay."
French green clay has enormous absorbent powers
due to the constitution of its micro molecules. It literally "drinks" oils,
toxic substances, and impurities from your skin. Its toning action stimulates
the skin. French green clay is great for helping to clear occasional skin
blemishes. It is
a common ingredient in many skincare products providing a natural exfoliant
that helps remove dead skin cells, stimulate cell regeneration, and helps
remove impurities and blemishes from the skin helping the skin to look clearer.
Use it daily on trouble spots, or weekly as part of a complete
facial treatment.
Many
people use French Green Clay in products such as masks or in
scrubs to help pull impurities from skin, exfoliate the skin and tighten pores.
Is drinking green clay recommended?
Drinking green clay is recommended in the
case where you have an extremely high level of toxins. It is however very
important that you drink more water sometime after you have taken green clay.
This is to avoid cases of constipation that come in the case where the clay
absorbs too much water from your system.
What are the health benefits of eating/drinking green clay?
Generally, ingesting clay will cleanse and
detoxify your body. The negative charge of French green clay ions explains its
ability to attract the positively charged toxins. The minerals are in very
small or colloidal particles. They are extremely fine-grained and
thin-layered...more so than any of the other clay minerals. The layers contain
ions that are very loosely, bound to one another...and, easily exchangeable. Not
only will acidic toxins, like graphene iron oxide stick to its outside surface;
but, numerous toxic elements and organic matter will enter the space between
the layers.
As it goes through your system, the clay collects all the parasites, viruses,
bad bacteria and other toxins including graphene (the only known supplement
that can) and drives them out of the body regenerating the organs to function
at its optimal level.
It has also been
known to help those with skin ailments (such as eczema and acne), diarrhea,
constipation, anemia, chronic infections, exposure to pesticides, insecticides
(and other, acidic, toxins), arthritis, acid reflux, infertility, liver disease,
obesity, hair loss, heavy-metal poisoning, and diabetes.
According to Dr. Robert O. Young, a research
scientist at the pH Miracle Center, states, " montmorillonite clay has the
ability to neutralize dietary, metabolic, respiratory, environmental acids
found in the blood and interstitial fluids and protect the body cells from
biological transformation leading to the creation of bacteria, yeast and/or
mold. The beautiful thing about the green clay is that it can
adsorb and then absorbs micro and nano particulates and their toxins or acids
over 100 times it own mass."
