Green clay has health benefits that no one knows about.
Strange, because it has been used for thousands of years to treat many health problems.
It is effective both for treating indigestion and for calming an insect bite.
Green clay is completely natural and is made from volcanic ash.
It is also found under the name montmorillonite.
Here are 10 uses of green clay that everyone should know about. Watch:
For soft, voluminous hair, mix 2-3 tablespoons of clay with as much filtered water or apple cider vinegar.
Apply this clay mixture as a mask on damp hair and leave on for 5 min. Then rinse thoroughly with clean water.
If you mix the clay with water, I recommend rinsing with apple cider vinegar diluted in water to prevent your hair from being too dry.
Green clay tightens and tones the skin. These absorbent properties allow it to remove excess sebum and impurities from the skin.
To make this mask, mix 2 to 3 tablespoons of clay with as much water or apple cider vinegar.
Apply the mixture in a thick and even layer on the face, and let it dry for about 10-15 min.
The skin on your face will pull and you will feel a slight tingling on your face. All that remains is to rinse with lukewarm water.
After tonight, remember to put on this homemade moisturizer to avoid drying out your skin.
For best results, do this mask once or twice a week. Check out the trick here.
Add 1-2 cups of clay to your bath water and enjoy your bath for about 20 min.
As you relax in the bath, the green clay will draw out toxins from your skin.
Thanks to its electromagnetic properties, small pieces of clay can stick to a particular area of the body where toxins are more present.
If clay remains on your skin after rinsing, simply use a washcloth to remove it.
Green clay is very effective in absorbing moisture in the armpits.
It works just as well as antiperspirant deodorants except it's not harmful to your health.
In addition, it eliminates odors without causing irritation. It is therefore particularly recommended for people with sensitive skin.
To apply it, nothing could be simpler! Take a little green clay on your fingertips and apply directly under the armpits.
Remember to apply it on still dry skin that has not yet sweated.
Know that it also has a deodorizing action, but you can add a few drops of lavender essential oil to perfume this homemade deodorant.
Green clay also has little-known benefits for the teeth, especially to remineralize them.
In addition to removing toxins from the mouth, it leaves behind minerals that strengthen teeth.
For your teeth to enjoy these benefits, use this very effective homemade clay toothpaste.
Mix green clay and water to a paste-like consistency.
Then apply this paste to the burn or cut you just got.
Wrap everything in plastic wrap or damp gauze to prevent the dough from drying out too quickly.
Change dressings every two hours if needed.
Mix 1 teaspoon of green clay in a large glass of water.
Soak the clay in water for at least 30 min, then drink.
Precautions:do not put more clay than the recommended amount, because too thick a mixture can cause constipation.
It is also recommended to drink a second glass with just water so that the clay goes down well.
It is also recognized that green clay has the power to fight viruses, pesticides and heavy metals in our body.
To extract these toxins from the body, consume 1/2 teaspoon of green clay mixed in a large glass of water.
Of course, we advise you to consult your doctor if the symptoms persist.
Green clay is also very effective in treating skin conditions such as insect bites or even chickenpox.
To do this, mix a small amount of clay and water and apply to the affected area.
Let it dry on the skin until it flakes off. Rinse off the residue with clean water.
Headaches, allergic reactions, fatigue, stuffy nose or any other ailments are very often due to an accumulation of toxins in the internal organs.
To purify yourself from the inside, add 1 teaspoon of green clay in a smoothie for example.
You can also add it to any other type of food you like.
In any case, remember to hydrate yourself well after ingesting it so that the clay can pass quickly through your digestive system.
However, a clay water cure is not recommended if:
- high blood pressure
- constipation
- hernia
- taking medication
- if you are pregnant
- if you are a child
Before ingesting green clay, talk to your doctor.
For internal use , green clay can be used for:
- stomach aches
- indigestion
- acid reflux
- constipation
- diarrhea
- heartburn
- pH balance (green clay is very alkalizing)
And for external use for:
- bruises
- bee stings
- insect bites
- burns
- cuts
- hair care
- skin care
Green clay is composed mainly of negative ions.
On the contrary, the toxins and heavy metals present in the body are made up of positive ions.
Therefore, green clay works like a magnet that attracts toxins to eliminate them from the body.
