Scientific Research

Hollyvo Green Clay is an ancient remedy that now benefits from strong scientific validation. Rich in essential minerals and sourced from Sicilian marine deposits, the clay is naturally processed, sun-dried, and preserved in its purest form—without additives or chemical treatments. Its detoxifying, remineralizing, and protective effects have been confirmed by modern studies, making it a trusted ally for those seeking natural, safe, and effective health support.

 

 

✅ Mineral Composition and Origin

Hollyvo Green Clay is extracted from deposits in southern Sicily, a region renowned for its mineral-rich soils. The clay contains:

• Silicon dioxide (SiO₂) – the primary component (~38%)

• Calcium oxide (CaO) – ~19%, supports bone health and digestion

• Aluminum oxide (Al₂O₃) – contributes to its layered structure

• Magnesium, iron, potassium oxides, and trace elements like zinc, copper, selenium, and manganese

Thanks to this composition, Hollyvo Green Clay serves as a natural source of bioavailable minerals. Its sun-drying process preserves its crystalline structure and natural energy, enhancing its therapeutic potential.

 

🔬 Scientifically Validated Mechanisms of Action

1. Molecular Adsorption

Its layered, porous structure acts like a molecular sponge, binding toxins, heavy metals, bacteria, and viruses, preventing their absorption into the bloodstream and promoting their safe elimination.

2. Ion Exchange and Chelation

Hollyvo clay releases beneficial ions (Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, K⁺) while capturing harmful ions (H⁺, heavy metals, ammonium), helping neutralize excess acidity and detoxify the digestive tract.

3. Remineralization and Cellular Support

It gradually releases vital minerals such as silicon for collagen synthesis, magnesium for nervous system balance, and potassium for cardiovascular and renal function.

📈 Clinical Evidence and Recent Studies

• Irritable Bowel Syndrome treatment
  A 2021 randomized clinical trial demonstrated that smectite (a type of medicinal clay) significantly reduced abdominal pain, bloating, and discomfort in IBS patients compared to placebo.

• Heavy Metal Detoxification
  Laboratory studies have shown green clays to effectively bind heavy metals like lead, cadmium, and mercury, preventing their absorption and promoting elimination.

• Antibacterial effects against resistant pathogens
  Research from Arizona State University revealed that iron-rich clays can destroy harmful bacteria by introducing toxic levels of iron ions inside the bacterial cells—a mechanism that shows potential in fighting antibiotic resistance.

🛡️ Safety, Testing and Quality

Hollyvo Green Clay is:

• Lab-tested for heavy metals, with levels well below EU safety thresholds (e.g., lead < 17.2 mg/kg)

• Free from microbial contamination, due to natural sun-drying and strict quality control

• BDIH/COSMOS certified for natural cosmetics, confirming its purity and safety for both internal and external use
