Findings

This lab study found that bentonite clay paste can bind to RNA viruses like SARS-CoV-2 when applied to skin, potentially offering antiviral protection. The researchers suggest it could be an alternative to alcohol-based hand sanitizers, with the added benefit of not stripping your skin or disrupting healthy skin bacteria.
