As far as other anecdotal benefits being reported from taking or applying Sacred Clay the following is a list of what is known so far:
Fungal Overgrowth
The clay has been observed to reduce, but not entirely eliminate, fungal overgrowth in the intestines.
Food Poisoning
Many have found relief from food poisoning or digestive disturbances after ingesting the clay (one tablespoon or more after eating the suspected food).
Poison Oak
All forms of poison oak, ivy, etc. seem to get relief from the application of the clay. It is best to continue to apply the clay until the symptoms have completely disappeared. A clay bath is recommended in addition to a local application of the clay on affected areas. This allows the clay to draw the oils out everywhere rather than concentrate the drawing action on only one spot.
Skin Complaints
Skin rashes and inflammations of a wide variety, insect bites, cuts, bruises, rashes, dry scales, itchy skin, boils, pimples and the like tend to improve quickly with clay poultices over the affected areas one or more times in a day (or overnight, even 24hours, in extreme cases when possible).
Ulcer
At least one gentleman reduced his ulcer 90% in ten days by consuming the sacred clay. (At one point he was getting up 2-3 times a night to spit up acids just so he could sleep. Ulcers are caused by poorly digesting food fermenting in the stomach or intestines. Proper digestive power of the stomach is generally enhanced, and fermenting bacteria reduced, with even a teaspoonful of Sacred Clay in water.
Inch Reduction/Clay Wrap
Clay body wraps have demonstrated exceptional inch-reducing capabilities with repeated application. With several body wraps over the span of a few weeks one woman lost 80 body inches and several dress sizes.
Rashes, Bites & Burns
Use a thick mix of clay and water. Cover affected area about 1/8 to 1/4” thick. Leave on until dry. Reapply if needed to further the healing. For severe burns, see your physician. Most major burn centers have long used clay as a part of their treatment. Sacred Clay helps prevent infections from setting in while providing the amorphous silica required for rapid skin regeneration.
Flesh Wounds and Bruises
Flesh wounds and bruises show near miraculous improvements within a day. One friend cut his eyebrow area to the bone when hitting it on a car window trying to get in out of the rain quickly. The cut bled profusely and began to swell. He applied clay to the area and left it on all night. The next morning I saw him, and I could hardly tell that he had cut his eye. He had no swelling or black eye. There was a thin, 1 inch bloodline where the cut was, and it was hardly noticeable. Within three days the wound was gone leaving only a faint scar. Within two months without further application of the clay, even the scar was not noticeable.
Bone and Muscle Damage
Apply a thick mix of clay and water as soon as possible after injury. Apply clay 1/2 to 1 inch thick and cover. Leave on for 24 hours, change as needed.
Broken Bone
Another friend had fallen and cracked a bone in her shoulder. There was bruising over the whole shoulder, chest and upper arm. She applied a clay poultice for one night (all night) and by morning the bruising was gone. No discoloration was left at all. The pain had lessened by morning and sleep was better than the night before. She continued to take the clay internally along with other herbal remedies. It appeared to accelerate the healing of the bone. (Though it is hard to say how long it may have taken without the clay.) I did notice she was driving again within 4 weeks.
Wrist Pain
Wrap clay around entire area if possible, 1/4 – 1/2 inch thick. Begin with 20 minutes per application, increase to overnight application for three days to three weeks.
Treatment of Internal Organs
To start, use a Sacred Clay compress (dressing saturated with moist clay) applied to cover organ for 20 minutes. Progress to a clay pack for 20 minutes. Extend to 1 hour as tolerance permits.
Chronic headaches . . . . Clay pack applied to nape of the neck for 20 minutes, then applied to the forehead for 20 minutes. Continue to alternate as needed.
Skin Inflammation & Zits
Inflammations of the skin and acne tend to improve within minutes of applying a clay poultice or mask.
Clay Bath/Detox
Clay baths are great for sore muscles, aches and pains, colds and flu, relieving energy overloads from public contact, and a faster whole body detox of chemical pollutants.
Softer Skin & Wrinkles
Skin gets softer and wrinkles will somewhat lessen with a single clay mask, though we have not observed the clay eliminate wrinkles with repeated applications; just improve the texture of the skin. By adding Coconut Oil to the facial mix hydration and softness is further improved thereby reducing the appearance of wrinkles.
Hair and Nails
Strengthening of hair & nails is a common report from the clay intake.
Oil Treatment After Using Sacred Clay

If an area of skin gets too dry from an application of the clay, the application of Organic Sesame or Organic Coconut Oil works wonders to further soften the skin. Dry skin is a sign of toxins in the tissues. As a magnet for toxins, some skin conditions may temporarily get worse before getting better. With repeated use of the Sacred Clay on the skin, toxins will eventually be drawn out sufficiently for the skin to return to normal hydration levels amd the oils may then no longer be necessary.
Sacred Clay Masks

Rubbing a thin layer (1/8th inch or more) on the face and washing off after 10-20 minutes, tends to result in a noticeable softening of the skin. Some have mixed Sacred Clay with Coconut Oil and applied the mixture as a poultice with excellent anti-aging results. The oil prevents the drying out of the clay and has been left on as a facial for as long four hours with exceptional improvements in facial brightness and youthfulness! Well worth a try!
The gentleness of this clay on skin is characteristically different from other clays. Most other clays will dry and cling hard to the skin with its pulling action, resulting in a difficulty in getting it off along with excessive redness afterwards.
Not so with Sacred Clay. The weak van der Waals bonds in Sacred Clay result in an easy removal, very little, if any redness, and a softer, younger looking skin in a matter of minutes.
This clay works exceptionally well in health spas for facials, clay wraps, clay baths, and therapeutically for clay poultices.
Due to the presence of a high amount of silica, the skin regenerating properties stimulated by this clay is beyond remarkable. Read further to learn about other people’s experiences in this area.
Clay Slurries and an Interesting Bonding Action with Toxins

Mixing the Sacred Clay into a slurry (mixed in a bowl with 1 part water and 2 parts clay), and rubbing the clay over the body, is a way to concentrate the detoxifying power of the clay. The entire amount designed for the clay bath can be slurried over the body just prior to getting in the tub. As the clay is dissolved into the tub by the water, the same or better effect (relative to putting all of the clay directly into the water) will be accomplished.
An interesting phenomenon has been noticed at times with clay slurries. After applying the slurry and getting into the water, the clay tends to cling to areas of greatest toxicity more strongly than to other areas (due to the strong magnetic attraction between the Sacred Clay and toxins). The clay can still be easily rubbed off (especially in water), yet some resistance may be felt over an area of greater toxicity.
Wet Clay Works Better
As long as the clay stays wet it continues its drawing action. It is not necessary to wait for the clay to dry to pull toxins out of the skin (typical of other clays). Toxins are pulled out electro-magnetically. This event happens quickly with toxins close to the skin and continues on with more lengthy exposure as the blood brings more toxins to the surface.
Sacred Clay Baths

With documentation from Dorman Cox, Ee Wah Kee, Inc. (article 12)
The recommended detoxifying period for Sacred Clay baths is 2-7 baths each week for 6 weeks, then 1-2 baths (or Shower Slurries) per week, or as desired thereafter.
Quantity of clay for each bath is 1/2 cup of Sacred Clay, or 1/3 cup of Sacred Bath mineral combination. In cases of extreme toxicity, such as from a history of exposure to chemicals, radiation, drugs, alcohol or tobacco, the recommended quantity to be added to a bath can go as high as 4 cups.
The drawing potential of the clay can be increased even further by adding 1-2 tablespoons of Sea Salt (Himalayan, Celtic or Real Salt™) to the bath water. Much more than that can be electrically stimulating, and possibly more energizing than relaxing.
Just prior to getting into the tub, a thick clay slurry (see below) can be applied to areas of special concern, such as on the face or over the liver, to increase the detoxifying potential around those areas.
Applying a thick poultice of the clay to the head, face and neck areas while bathing results in a more direct detoxification of heavy metals and chemical pollutants from the head areas. A general lightness or improvement in mental abilities may be noticed from this procedure.
Absorption of Chlorine in City Water
Sacred Clay in bath water is sure to eliminate the chlorine and other chemicals found in many city water supplies, making for a more healthful and enjoyable soak. It also provides an abundance of useful trace minerals to be taken up by the body directly through the skin (the body’s largest organ).
Absorption of Plastic Contaminants in Bottled Water/Increased Hydration
If it is a chemical or estrogen component derived from plastic, even a 1/8th teaspoon of Sacred Clay will detoxify your drinking water and add vital mineral nutrients. Sacred Clay reduces the surface tension of water making it more easily absorbed, thereby increasing hydration.
Purifying Water of Unknown Quality when Camping or Traveling
If you are camping or traveling internationally and drinking spring water of unknown quality, a small amount of the Sacred Clay can be added to purify the water (including microbes and bacteria) and improve its hydrating effect on your body.
Sacred Clay and Pharmaceutical Drugs

With documentation from Dorman Cox, Ee Wah Kee, Inc. (article 10)
Due to the powerful drawing action of Sacred Clay, it is best not taken internally within 3 hours before or after drug intake if those drugs are required for hormonal or physiological support.
If you are on antidepressant drugs or other drugs that require residual amounts in your system to be effective, it is better to not take the clay at all internally. The clay will tend to absorb the residual amounts of the drug in your system and could result in withdrawal reactions from the drugs.
My Personal Experiences with Taking Sacred Clay Internally

With documentation from Dorman Cox, Ee Wah Kee, Inc. (article 9)
When taking Sacred Clay internally, I have experienced a noticeable amount of strength and endurance as a background feeling. This feeling of support internally seems to be exceptional for clay. I tend to take from 4 to 12 capsules (1 teaspoon to 1 tablespoon) per day, with the greater amount producing the strongest feeling of internal support. This feeling of support seems to endure for the better part of the day. I have also noticed an increased alkalinity in my morning urine from taking the clay.
Given the nature of our society, I personally believe that it is right place, right time for the human race to become aware of Sacred Clay’s healing powers.
The Benefits of Sacred Clay
Saturday, February 6th, 2010By

With documentation from Dorman Cox, Ee Wah Kee, Inc. (article
Exceptionally Rich Silica Content and Silicic Acids
The clay’s rich silica content (approximately 60%) produces an exceptional abundance of mono & orthosilicic acids when the clay is combined with water. Silicic acids are required to make minerals bioavailable. This is true for plant and human alike.
Connection to Mineral Uptake in the Body
Silicic acids have been found to improve the mineral uptake in plants, thereby increasing nutritional content significantly. It is believed that the same action takes place in the human body, making the minerals of the clay bioavailable for assimilation into the bloodstream.
Higher Electrical Charge
Pyrophyllite (Sacred) Clay) has been measured to contain an exceptionally high electrical charge. What I experience when I take it internally is a feeling of being electrically lifted and energized. This translates to a greater attractive pull to draw toxins to itself. In instances of clay baths and clay poultices, it draws toxins from deeper within body organs, muscles and skin than an average clay.
The Possible High Antioxidant and Detoxifying Ability
Some preliminary test results have revealed that Sacred Clay enhances the quality of water when added to it by removing toxins, chemicals, funguses, viruses and bacteria, and possibly by adding additional antioxidant power to the water.
Pyrophyllite clay is known to contain approximately 60% silica of which approximately 85% is a non-crystalline, round, amorphous silica. Amorphous means the silica molecules “hold no structured shape” (as opposed to a solid crystalline matrix like sand). This amorphous construction gives the clay particles an exceptional amount of surface area to attract and hold toxic compounds, thereby increasing its detoxifying powers, and possibly the antioxidant properties.
Here is another personal observation that lends credibility to this hypothesis:
An Interesting Correlation
I was recently given a Dark Field Microscope Live Blood Analysis. The Naturopathic Doctor giving the test commented – in all of her years as a therapist (she is over 70 years old) she had never seen anyone whose antioxidant ability in their blood was as great as what she saw in my blood sample. Now, whether this was due to the clay or the adaptogenic herbs that I take, or something else is uncertain, but there is at least an interesting correlation here.
Still Held Sacred by Many
Thursday, February 4th, 2010By Michael King & Dorman Cox (article 5/5)
Adding to the mystique about this clay, there is an interesting set of magnetic ley lines that intersect at the nearby Crater Lake, and two that are known to intersect on the property itself where the clay is situated. There is a special, quiet peaceful feeling that comes over those that walk the land, growing in intensity in certain locations on the property. The harvesting site for Sacred Clay is situated in an area of the country long revered by the Native American Indians for its high pristine energy and spiritual significance.
