Claim:
1. An oral composition capable of binding an aflatoxin comprising: an effective amount of an isolated calcium aluminosilicate clay having an particle size less than 80 microns has a detectable level of OCDD and is free from detectable levels of total tetra-dioxin, total penta-dioxin, and total hexa-dioxin; wherein the detectable levels of total tetra-dioxin are above 0.024 pg/L; the detectable levels of total penta-dioxin are above 0.025 pg/L; and the detectable levels of total hexa-dioxin are above 0.039 pg/L; wherein the detectable level of OCDD is about 0.362 pg/L; wherein an orally consumed effective amount of the isolated calcium aluminosilicate clay composition is useful for mitigating toxic effects of the aflatoxin in a living system at risk for aflatoxicosis.
