What is the difference between calcium bentonite and sodium bentonite clay?

Even though Sodium Bentonite and Calcium Bentonite Clay are cousins from the same family genesis, they are different in efficacy and intended uses.

Sodium Bentonite (montmorillonite)’s primary ion is Sodium (Na). It has a much greater swelling capacity than Calcium Bentonite, so it is not typically used/taken internally except for certain conditions (colon cleansing). Sodium bentonite is used extensively in industrial applications.

IMPORTANT: Consult your physician before beginning any supplement, including edible clay. Do not ingest within 2 hrs of taking prescription drugs. If your skin is highly sensitive, do a patch test first. Keep out of reach of children. Don’t inhale powder.
