bentonite-What is bentonite clay used for?
It is generally OK to apply bentonite clay on your skin and hair as long as you do not get any allergic reaction. Therefore, before applying on a large part of your face or skin, apply only a little bit first. As the U. S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) does not regulate the production and labeling of cosmetics, it is difficult to say how the products that contain bentonite clay will turn out after their use. Therefore, you need to try them out by yourself.There are two reports of bentonite clay causing low potassium levels (hypokalemia)—one in a cat and the other one in a girl after oral consumption. But the side effects can be attributed to the intake of excessive quantities of bentonite clay.
