Does bentonite clay clean THC out of the system?

Answer 1

Actually, yes. Bentonite has been proven effective at removing toxins from the body. Here's the deal; bentonite is composed of numerous microscopic platelets, each with negative charges on the flat surfaces and positive charges on the edges. When properly hydrated, the water molecules cause these platelets to separate into a porous structure containing both negative and positive charges. The swelling caused by this porous structure allows bentonite to absorb substances in the space between the platelets. The ionic charges give bentonite the ability to also adsorb (or bind) toxins and hold them until they are eliminated. What many online troll "experts" will tell you is that bentonite is "unable to remove THC because it travels through the digestive tract, and THC is stored in fat cells." What they fail to realize is that (1) drug tests measure THC metobolites, not THC stored in fat, and (2) hydrated bentonite is also expelled through the kidneys (as are THC metabolites), making it possible for the negatively charged clay to absorb positively charged THC metabolites.
