Question:
Is using bentonite detox safe while pregnant?
Answers:
Generally speaking, detoxification methods purge the body and cause a weakening of the whole system in the process. Pregnancy is NOT the time to do this. As was previously mentioned, detoxification should be done post-partum, upon cessation of breast feeding.
If you are feeling "toxic" during pregnancy the best solution is to increase anti-oxidants in your diet (blueberries, spinach, tea, etc.) and increase water intake. Water will naturally flush your system in a safe and non-stressful way, and the antioxidants will assist with cleaning up the waste.
