Using an appropriate amount of sterile gauze, rod the clay into a joint (a controversial cigarette-like contrivance) about the size of the pain rider's small finger. 3." - James Green, The Herbal Medicine-Maker's Handbook (Get the book.)

"John's Wort Make a paste with bentonite clay and St. John's wort oil and smear it on a bee sting to draw out the venom. You can find bentonite clay at many health food stores.
