Biomecta

Biomecta contains “Diosmectite” which is natural alumina magnesium silicate clay with a lamellar, non-fibrous crystalline structure that gives it strong adsorbent properties. However, unlike other adsorbents, Diosmectite is not absorbed in the intestine and can adsorb eight times its own weight of water, thereby diminishing free stool water.
