The way I use clay is to prepare a very thick viscous hydrated clay magma that has the physical consistency similar to molasses. I put an equivalent of around two tablespoons inside the mouth and use my tongue to swish the clay all around the inside of the mouth including all areas of the teeth and gums and under the tongue. Let is sit there for around 20 -30 minutes, spit it out and gargle with clean water so that you do not swallow the clay as by now, the clay will have picked up toxins, bacteria and negative energies from all over the mouth and tongue and throat areas
