Antibacterial clay for possible relief from antibiotic-resistant superbugs,
bridges the gap between native healing and science.
Healing Clay
For centuries, indigenous cultures have used ingredients from the earth to heal ailments. While our hearts want to believe in this possibility, science struggles to find tangible proof of success for many natural remedies. Through diligence and scientific method, one particular healing clay from a volcanic deposit near Crater Lake, Oregon, is breaking down those barriers. With the emergence of antibiotic resistant human pathogens, this clay might prove to be of substantial global importance.
The antibacterial components and chemical reactions in this clay are still being researched and discovered, but to date it has proven effective through laboratory research and anecdotal evidence to help a number of maladies caused by bacteria and other blights.
People who have applied the clay topically have reported positive results with numerous and various skin ailments.
Whereas the clay has proven to be effective against a broad range of pathogenic bacteria in laboratory experiments, it has not yet undergone FDA approved clinical trials and has not received FDA approval. Development and application of this clay is in the experimental and investigatory stages only. We are asking you to experiment with the clay at your own risk and responsibility, and to carefully observe and describe to us (1) the external skin condition or other external medical condition on which you used the clay, (2) your method of experimental treatment, including your method of application, frequency of application and the amount of clay you used at each application, and (3) any results of your experimental treatment, both positive and negative. The acidic nature of the clay system may lead to a reddening of the skin. Usually an application of the clay is soothing, but sometimes it may cause a burning sensation, especially when applied to fresh cuts. Some users have reported that application of the clay leads to swelling. It is as yet unclear if swelling is a part of the healing process, or if it is a side effect of applying the clay to certain conditions. We ask you to use your intuition to decide on the frequency and method of application. The clay is not intended or recommended for internal use, ingestion or contact with your eyes.
