(NaturalNews) This day and age with air travel so available, more and more people are taking global tours and visiting in person the foreign countries we have read about down through history. For all the glory and adventures, there are also challenges to world travelers. Radiation is an ever present danger in the area of Japan and travelers are exposed to a plethora of strange insect bites and parasites. Add to the list Montezuma's Revenge, also known as Traveler's Diarrhea. Now you can travel with peace of mind and protect yourself with one simple natural solution-Calcium Bentonite Clay.

Calcium Bentonite Clay is an evolved volcanic ash with a high negative ionic charge giving it a very strong drawing and detoxing power. Calcium Bentonite is a Smectite clay referred to as a living clay because of its ability to act as a catalyst with the body. Viruses, molds, bacteria, all hold a positive ionic charge. These bad boys are drawn into the living clay's stronger negative charged infrastructure and carried out of the body.

Traveler's Diarrhea results from a sanitation failure that leads to bacterial contamination of drinking water and food. It occurs during or shortly after travel, most commonly affecting persons traveling from an area of more highly developed hygiene and sanitation infrastructure to a less developed one. It can be caused by bacteria, parasites, or viruses. In approximately 20 percent of those infected, the illness is severe enough to cause bed confinement, and in 10 percent of cases the illness lasts for more than one week. That can wreck a vacation for sure.

Just drinking purified drinking water is not enough protection as the bacteria and parasites are often on the foods and in ice in beverages.

So what is a person to do?

Clay added to nocuous water is known to purify the water. Drinking the alkaline clay water before meals while in a foreign country will protect you from Traveler's Diarrhea. Recommended dosage is one to two ounces of the premixed liquid clay three times a day. All clays are different so be sure to select a clay approved for internal use. For more information see Criteria for Selecting a Quality Healing Clay.

There are documented uses of clay for healing throughout history. Clay is recognized worldwide as a treatment for diarrhea. In China, clay has been used for centuries as a cure for summer diarrhea and cholera. Early French cultures used clay for nutrition and medicinal purposes. They touted the clay's healing effect on gum diseases, ulcers, rashes, dysentery, hemorrhoids, infected wounds, and bites.

During WWI, German physicians offered clay therapy as a solution to food poisoning, dysentery, diarrhea, and battle wound infections that were rampant among troops on both sides, greatly reducing mortality rates.

Russian scientists used clay to protect their bodies from radiation when working with nuclear material. Because it absorbs radiation so well, Bentonite Clay was chosen to dump into the Chernobyl reactors after the meltdown there.

The clay in a dry powder form is easy to carry when traveling and equally easy to mix into the liquid or as a clay mud for topical application for insect bites, sunburns, wounds, rashes, tooth aches and many more ailments. It is a must for every traveler's first-aid kit. It is recommended to continue taking the liquid clay for 21 days after returning home to make sure any parasitic eggs have an opportunity to mature and get carried out of the body. Be sure and put Calcium Bentonite Clay Detox Powder on your packing list and enjoy your trip.
