[[Bentonite]] is an absorbent aluminum phylosilicate rock containing mostly montmorillonite. It is formed mainly from volcanic ash. The name comes from the largest known deposit of bentonite clay located in Fort Benton, Wyoming, USA. It is a unique clay due to its ability to produce electronegative charge when hydrated giving it the ability to attract and neutralize toxins which are electropositive. When mixed with water, bentonite rapidly swells open like a highly porous sponge, making the toxins and heavy metal to be drawn in through electrical attraction without leaching away any of its beneficial elements. This phenomenon prevents toxic molecules from passing through the walls of the intestines and entering the bloodstream; instead, they are eliminated from the body through the kidneys.

Based on the above properties, bentonite is an important healing clay. It can be applied on the skin to remove eczema and also applied on the face ([[:File:UNN_Medical_Geology_Fig_15.png|Figure 15]]) and other parts of the body as a cream where it leaves the skin smooth and radiant.<ref>Knishinsky, R., 1998, The Clay Cure.
