Re: Oh Mira! More Research...

Okay, I think I found what I read before. I'm no expert whether any of these things will work. I'm grasping at straws, which any desperate person is likely to do.

On http://216.239.57.104/search?q=cache:vGBAH9sK8tQJ:www.shirleys-wellness-cafe.com/clay.htm+pascalite+clay+metal+toxicity&hl=en&ie=UTF-8

There's something on the page about how clay binds to metals and toxins....

"Technically, the clay first adsorbs toxins (heavy metals, free radicals, pesticides), attracting them to its extensive surface area where they adhere like flies to sticky paper; then it absorbs the toxins, taking them in the way a sponge mops up a kitchen counter mess.

There is an electrical aspect to bentonite’s ability to bind and absorb toxins. According to Yerba Prima, a company based in Ashland, Oregon, which markets Great Plains® Bentonite, the clay’s minerals are negatively charged while toxins tend to be positively charged; hence the clay’s attraction works like a magnet drawing metal shavings. But it’s even more involved than that."

Man, I don't know what to say about using benonite clay. I've heard both wonderful things and bad; so use your own intuition or intellectual judgement as to whether it's right for you.

I just wish that I could really help, just doing a bit of quick research seems horribly inadequate. But it was all I could think of. Sigh! Good luck, Mira.
