Kaolin clay is a gentle mineral powder that mainly benefits the skin by absorbing excess oil and soothing irritation, while internal use requires strict caution.
Here is how kaolin clay affects the twelve major body systems.
1. Integumentary System (Skin, Hair, Nails)
Function: Protects the body and regulates temperature.
Action: Absorbs extra oil and dirt from the skin. It cools redness and cleans pores gently.
Caution: Overuse can dry out sensitive skin.
2. Digestive System (Stomach and Intestines)
Function: Breaks down food and absorbs nutrients.
Action: Historically used to coat the stomach lining and ease mild diarrhea.
Caution: Eating raw clay can cause constipation, block the intestines, or stop nutrient absorption. Drink more than 16oz of water if consuming more than 2 tbsp of clay.
3. Muscular System (Muscles)
Function: Allows body movement.
Action: Can be used in warm clay mud packs to relax sore outer muscles temporarily.
4. Lymphatic System (Fluid Balance)
Function: Clears fluid and fights waste.
Action: Topical masks may help stimulate mild surface circulation.
Caution: Does not detoxify internal organs through the skin.
Caution: Do not apply cold clay to injured or strained muscles without medical advice.
Caution: Eating clay steals important minerals from your body, which can weaken bones over time.
