Since the legal regulations in place make it difficult for us to mention the full range of health benefits that clay has to offer or to make any health claims, we suggest some books that will easily help you educate yourself about said benefits.
Clay is the most ancient healing remedy and pure substance used by humans and animals since the creation of life on Earth. In ancient texts and parchments, it is said that humans were made out of clay. In science, they have shown that life started in a mixture made of clay and water. These statements show how essential clay is for humans and most living beings on Earth.
This book that we read many years ago is one of the best resources of how to use clay and other natural remedies. The most famous and most experienced pioneer in clay therapy, French Naturopath Raymond Dextreit, is singularly responsible for the modern resurgence of healing clay as a natural medicine art form in the western world. Raymond wrote the landmark handbook called The Healing Power of Clay in 1952!
The 30+ years author's experience with healing clays was coupled with an uncanny ability to observe, document, and correlate clay's physiological action with the principle of natural medicine.
Breakthrough in the art and science of clay therapy would not have been possible without Dextreit's core observations.
The content of this book is very much in tune and relevant to the currency of the times we are all living,. it offers us a reconnection to natural means to look after ourselves, all from the generosity of Mother Nature.
