For a long time I have been drawn to using clay – especially calcium Bentonite. Recently, I decided to start ingesting this clay and started eating a teaspoon per day in smoothies. The next morning after eating the clay I felt much clearer than usual! Usually I suffer from allergies and they make me feel sort of foggy in the morning – but that morning I felt great! I have since continued eating the clay and it has been almost a week. Since then my allergies have greatly decreased and I have much more energy. – D.J.H.
Allergy Relief
Warning!! Bentonite Clay has side effects!! IT CURED MY HAY FEVER!!!
It’s really refreshing to have positive side effects from a health product, unlike the negative ones we get from pharmaceuticals. Like using Bentonite clay, only to find out my 30 years of suffering from Hay Fever is now a thing of the past. I added Bentonite clay as a detox and when spring came around I noticed no runny nose, no sneezing nothing. The TV told me we had a really bad day coming up, but when it arrived I again noticed nothing again! When I searched for “Bentonite Clay allergies” I found this site, and it confirmed exactly what I was experiencing. As a child I went to every allergy expert in the country!
I went to the doctor’s office weekly to take injections of allergens in order for my system to be more accustomed to them, but it didn’t work, those so called experts know nothing! All I needed was a bit if dirt in my diet, I wish I knew this 30 years ago, it would have prevented 30 years of suffering! I’m also glad I’m no longer contributing any more money to big phama’s antihistamine scam!!!
Thanks for getting the information out there, its vitally important people get this information. -Jimbo C. or James C.
Allergies & Sinus Infection
After one month, my skin feels luxurious and looks better than it has in at least a decade. My inflammation has calmed. My allergic rashes from food and environment have been reduced by at least 50%. My sinuses are clear and I’m breathing easily despite my allergy season kicking into high gear. – Carol B
13 year Illness Gone After A Month On Clay I am turning 25 in just a few days and have been taking the clay internally three times a day for a month now. I have been sick on and off for 13 years and the traditional doctors could never find a cure for me. I had just accepted that I had a sickly body and a weak immune system. I had bald spots and began fainting at the age of 12, then at 20 I became nauseous all of the time. When I graduated from college, I was so sick that I needed to take some time off before obtaining my masters degree. I began researching different ways to detoxify my body. I started getting colonics, bought an infrared sauna, and eating raw food. But it was only when I started drinking a living clay Calcium Bentonite clay that I started feeling like a normal human being for the first time in 13 years!!! After 3 weeks, I had an energy surge. I started wanting to do things I hadn’t wanted to do in a long, long time…simple things like take a hike with my family. This clay has given me back my passion to live my life to the fullest. Before the clay, I was sick, exhausted, and depressed. Now, I feel alive! People are even saying how good my skin looks! Like I have a glow!! I will, without a doubt, be a lifelong customer. Anytime I have any questions, I just call Perry A. and she answers my calls directly and with such kindness and grace. This clay truly saved my life. – Stephanie D.
Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Chemo Relief for 2 year old
Calcium Bentonite Clay has helped my 2 yr. grandson recover more quickly from the toxic effects of chemo he’s given for ALL – acute lymphoblastic leukemia. His parents put a thick coat (1/4″) of clay mud on the bottoms of his feet, covered with plastic wrap and then with socks. They would leave it on 20-30 minutes at a time; 3-4 times per day. Sometimes same day as the chemo, sometimes later after the med cleared his body – depending on the med. They have also given him liquid clay at times via his nasogastric-tube to help with detox. There has been no sign of cancer since the initial diagnosis 18 months ago. He is the only child at this particular hospital to have lived through this far in the treatment and I believe it is, in part, due to the clay. My grandson and daughter-in-law have used supplements, whole food and have lots of prayer support since the diagnosis, that I believe are also key to how well he’s done. -Karen H.
Ankylosing Spondilitis (chronic inflammation of the joints in the spine)
My ankylosing spondilitis has affected my life, general well-being and quality of life since the age of 12. However, it was not diagnosed until I was at the age of 30. The symptoms that I have experienced, is pain and stiffness in the back, all the way up to the neck, general tiredness and problems with the colon. An Icelandic doctor confirmed that the tummy problems were related to the Ankylosing Spondilitis and that Candida were somehow linked to the onset of the disease. For many years I had painkillers and various anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for breakfast, lunch and dinner, or so it felt. Until one day I had had enough. That was the year 2006. From that time I have been looking for something as an alternative to these dangerous products from the pharmaceutical industry. And I have tried almost anything, but nothing really worked until I tried the clay. I use roughly one teaspoon dissolved in water in the morning and at nighttime, as well as drinking a freshly squeezed fruit or vegetable juice at lunch. The difference is vast! A feeling of well-being is something I have not experienced before (as far as I can remember), along with my colon problems having completely disappeared. Everybody complements me on how well I look and ask how I do it. I have not tried the clay poultice, as the clay is only sold in a tiny glass jars in one place in Iceland, each jar weighing 50 grams or 1.76 oz. This is an obstacle in using the clay here in Iceland. I can’t wait to buy in bulk so that I can try the bath and poultices. I want to tell everybody about the clay and I want everyone I know to use it. I know first hand that the clay works, even for me, and that people will want to buy it when word gets out. -S’lveig H.
Hey all I started using clay in March of ’08 mainly cause I have been “sick” for about 7 years and no real reason could be found as I was researching I discovered all sorts of nasty things like mercury toxicity, yeast and parasites I must say this clay has given me back my energy, my zest for life and oh yeah I have lost some weight also I noticed I don’t have to dye my hair as much not nearly as grey so I would recommend this clay for every one – spider veins in my legs are diminishing and the huge varicose one down the back of my leg is getting smaller so….. drink up, it is all good!!!
Hey guys I also have chronic fatigue which causes the immune system to malfunction. My lymph nodes have been chronically enlarged for years. Since taking the clay the ones in my groins and armpits have gone down and the ones in my neck are reduced halleujah!!!!!!!!!! It has been 8 years and it is wonderful. -Patsy K.
Cirrhosis of the Liver
My 60 year old clean living husband had been diagnosed with Hep C and Cirrhosis of the liver. He only had 5 percent of his liver left. The Dr. told him to home and put his affairs together because he had 6 months to live. A friend told him about the clay and started him on a regimen of building up from 3 ounces of liquid clay 3 times a day to 1 cup clay 3 times a day and made him wear a poultice over his liver every night and bath every day. He did this for 3 months and he felt so much better. The Dr wanted to make him quit the clay because his liver enzymes count was going through the roof. He listened to his body and kept drinking the clay. By 6 months 30 percent of his liver grew back, he was no longer yellow, his urination problem gone, white blood cell count good, back to work full time and happy. At a year and a half his liver had grown back to 55%. His Hep C has improved too. – Wendy M.
Clay for Carbuncle
I’m new to clay but I LOVE CLAY!!! I was recently introduced to clay as a result of getting a carbuncle on my thigh. A friend went to the health food store for me and they told her to have me place the clay mask on the carbuncle with a bandage. I had to change bandages frequently because the clay was drawing out the infection rapidly. I read horror stories about people who were left with huge scars and holes in their bodies from the carbuncles, but thanks to clay…I hardly have a scar and I’m spreading the word about clay. – Khrystil B.
Crohn’s Disease
The clays I’ve had the best luck with for my Crohn’s thus far are any type safe for internal use that SWELL. Now I wouldn’t say this to any crohnnies out there who have stricturing in their gut, as the potential for a partial or total blockage is high. These clays work for me as I no longer have any stricturing after a surgery 8 years ago that removed a foot of strictured small intestine & cecum. Currently, I’ve had problems confined to the large intestine that respond quite well to clays. I believe they do a great job to remove all the excess water, mucus, and bacteria in the gut.
I hope this post helps any of you newcomers to the list with digestive issues. I’m thrilled to have found a natural product that helps to control some of the difficult symptoms of this disease. -Mike Y.
Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Relief from Liver Poultices
I wanted to share how much doing liver poultices every day has been helping me. I’ve been diagnosed with several health conditions including fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, sarcoidosis and heavy metal toxicity. One of my main symptoms is severe food allergies and mal-absorption of nutrients. I started taking daily clay baths and foot soaks and drinking liquid clay internally and immediately felt much better. I’ve also noticed a big benefit from doing liver poultices on a regular basis. As soon as I start putting the clay on my liver I can feel my body relax significantly and something just “unwinds” internally. It’s a very interesting feeling. I usually have to go the restroom within 5 minutes of putting the clay on and I feel lighter and happier and more relaxed in general after doing a half hour to two hour poultice. I finally started to gain some much need weight and have been feeling more relaxed overall since I added the poultice to my clay regimen. If I feel irritated or out of sorts about something putting a liver poultice on immediately helps improve my mood. It’s great! — Audrey W.
Fibromyalgia, Candida, Sciatic, Arthritis and Gum Disease
I had been dealing with a Sciatic pain for 5 years. I couldn’t sit or stand for more than 20 minutes and the doctor only gave me Gabapentin as a treatment-it seemed that this did nothing for me. I had developed pain from head to toe and everywhere in between, I had Candida in my intestines, I’m arthritic and the dentist just said there is so much inflammation in my body that I’m developing early gum disease. I was also so fatigued that I would have to lower my arms after every 2 or 3 curls when doing my hair, I couldn’t mow my lawn anymore, household chores were unbearable and even lifting 2 or 3 plates was too much for me. I could barely work for 5 years.
At the end of this 5 year period the doctor finally decided to say “you have Fibromyalgia”—this also brings Chronic Fatigue with it. She also tried to give me Steroids and Amitriptyline, which I read can make you suicidal. I refused the medication.
And the end of June 2012. I was in Central Market, as I walked through the aisles an employee was standing facing me as though she had no assignment other than to wait for me to arrive. The Holy Spirit told me ask for help with my medical issues. I was so desperate and fearful of my medical and financial future that I poured the list of all my ailments on her. She took me to the shelf, showed me a jar of clay and said, “My husband and I drink this daily-this will change your life”. She also suggested that I bathe in it. I began drinking it that evening. I drank 2 ounces 4 times a day all week and took one bath in it that week. My symptoms began to leave me. I began to get better right away. Within the first couple of weeks the sciatic pain wasn’t bothering me. The all over pain began to go away. I could curl my hair all over and never have to put my arms down. I was mowing my lawn again and completing my daily household chores with ease. I had just been to the dentist that June of 2012 and was told to come back in Sept. for my first gum disease treatment. I had already begun to use the clay to brush my teeth and I packed it under my gums every night. At my Sept. appt. for my first gum treatment the hygienist said, with wide stretched eyes, “it’s gone”. I told her about the clay and she immediately began to write it down.
I’ve been working full time again, since July 2012, drinking and bathing in my clay and sharing this blessing with everyone who will listen. God puts people in our path’s as we walk so the visit to the market was for me to be blessed by this clay and to share that blessing with others. Friends continue to tell me of Fibromyalgia relief, an eye healing, burn healing, 2 straightened hammer toes and more. I will continue to spread the word. — Faye H.
Foot Fungus
Last month I got fungus/athlete’s foot between a couple of my toes (feet get wet and the area doesn’t dry…called it jungle rot when i was in basic training). I used an over the counter treatment first two days but it continued to hurt and not heal up. So on the third day I tried the clay and the pain was gone immediately and the sore healed within 24 hours. Great stuff!!- Julie B.
Gall Bladder Distress
A few nights ago, I ate more greasy food than I should have. I had my gall bladder removed several years, and the doctor told me to go easy on fried foods. It’s not usually a problem, since I eat very little fried foods. When I overdo the greasy foods (which has only happened a few times!) I can hardly move for the horrible abdominal pain. Well, after the success with my husband and his gastric distress, as soon as I began to feel discomfort in my lower abdominal region, I decided to try a swig of the clay solution, too, and very shortly, no more discomfort! – Jo Ann A.
Ganglion Cysts
I am so impressed with this clay. I had two Ganglion Cysts on my left foot. One the size of a walnut…the other about the size of a marble. Why I let them get so large???…Just didn’t know what to do. I did see a foot doctor, who gave me the diagnosis. Didn’t want surgery or to have them drained. Read about clay online. I have been drinking clay for almost 2 months. Both Cysts are completely gone. Taa Daa…Completely thrilled !!! – Angela J.
Genital Herpes
I was diagnosed with genital herpes one year ago and went on the usual bout of prescriptions. Every now and then, as predicted, I get a break out, not as bad as the first. A friend of mine — who is the one I credit to turning me on to your products and a genital herpes sufferer as well, recommended that I put the clay mask directly on the sore and leave it on. I had been using Zovirax cream– which was not helping by the way. I put it directly on the sore at night and went to bed with it on. The next day, it was completely gone. And this has happened twice. – Julia B.
Gluten Intolerance
Our 13 year old is intolerance to gluten. She takes a teaspoon of the clay mask. On a recent holiday she ate some before every gluten containing meal. And it really helped. Now we are home, she is still gluten free but if she has a little bit of gluten then she has a little clay usually prior to eating it and every night she has a bit before bed. It definitely works though…enough time has passed to see that the revolting behavior patterns are not apparent after gluten consumption.
For a 13 year old, she really impresses me, with how she takes the clay daily. Clay really has turned our lives around. The change to our family is massive. I can’t thank you enough. – Lucy D.
Guillaine-Barre Syndrome
I started using your clay powder a few years back when a good friend from Florida gave me some for Christmas. It has changed my well-being a lot, I was diagnosed with Guillaine-Barre Syndrome just prior to using it and I personally believe that it has helped me thru that situation. I believe that I had a good amount of toxins in my body which needed to be removed before I could start the healing process. I , along with my Wife Beth have owned and operated a business in which I believe I have been subjected to all sorts of chemicals and such. I became very ill with the Guillaine-Barre and My family and I wanted to get thru this and still maintain my health. I was ingesting the clay daily, taking a clay bath 2x’s a month and I believe that by doing these things along with drinking high PH water , also the higher PH clay that I have been on the right track with getting a handle on this situation. I want to say Thank You.
Thru-out this event I had met many people in aquatic therapy and turned them on to the clay. I hope you don’t mind , it’s not too often that I come across a product that can change our lives, yours does. My wife works at Community Support Program facility , a couple weeks ago, of the clients had passed away and the staff were very discouraged by this, one staff member had broken out with what appeared to be hives from the stress of the situation, going to the hospital they gave her medication and said it would have to run its course, I suggested applying the clay wash and clay moisturizer that I had been given by you folks with my last order, she applied it as directed and within 24 hours it helped significantly. She too is now a customer of yours. I will continue to tell everyone this product, it’s the best wellness product I have ever used and again, THANK YOU. – Scott J.
H Pylori
We have gotten rid of the Pylori Bacteria……and the only thing we have found is the clay that would get rid of it other than antibiotics (and not sure if the antibiotics always work)……and we avoid the antibiotic. It took 2 large doses of the clay, one dose a day. For adults and children adult size, we used 1/3 cup of hydrated clay, all in one setting. For the little ones (our grandson was right at 2 years old and about 26 pounds), we used 2 tablespoons of the hydrated clay. If you prefer the liquid, just dilute the hydrated clay with good water and let sit long enough to make the liquid. We had to dose the whole family all the same time, for the little ones, you can mix it in yogurt or something that they would like. I have found that when the little ones “need” the clay …they gladly eat it in whatever you put it in. That has been our experience. Love my clay!!! – Dee E.
Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease
My son, Lani, was just home from Bates College, for a few days, to heal from Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease. I gave him the clay to consume internally, morning and at bedtime, to apply to the itchy rashes (all over his body), and to soak in a warm tub. He had a miraculous turnaround in just 3 days. He was cleared by the school nurse this afternoon, so is back practicing with the football team. His rashes and the itching responded to the clay immediately. He has also used the clay to clear up his acne with great success. We have a sample of the clay face and body scrub, which we like, so have ordered some for myself, my 21-year-old daughter, Jamie, and for my son, Lani. Thank you for such great and useful products! Deb E.
Hammer Toes
I had a toe nail fungus and soaked both feet 3-5 x a week in your clay and then cut down the amount to maybe 1 or 2 x a week. A small hospital plastic basin with Berkey filtered water to cover my feet with a 1/2 cup dry mixed clay with 8oz filtered berkey water, mixed in my magic bullet and added to the water in my basin. Then gradually added more hot water. I changed the water maybe once a week. I heated the water each time in a separate tea kettle and kept the soak water hot. I soaked my feet for 30-40 minutes.
I commented to my husband that I thought my hammertoes looked straighter as he had noticed them before also. I would not have thought anymore about it except I was listening to a past show where you said someone else had mentioned it also. I doubt you would get a podiatrist to agree but it sounds like we may “be on to something” helpful. – Joy C.
Horrendous Sore Throat
I was visiting friends in San Francisco and had brought along a gift of the clay for the family. On the third morning, I awoke with the most horrendous razored throat I’d had since college. I could barely swallow and couldn’t eat. Usually, I would take echinacea and gargle with peroxide for about 5 days and, if caught in time, the cold (or flu) would stay in check. Unfortunately, I didn’t have these with me and my host didn’t have them either. What they did have was the clay! I borrowed a tablespoon back, swirled it into a glass of warm water then gargled. Even before I spit out the first round, the pain was gone … from misery to pain-free within seconds! I gargled a few more times then proceeded to have breakfast and a very fun rest of my vacation. – Claudia C.
Hyperthyroidism and Clay
I have hyPERthyroidism and I DO THINK CLAY HAS HELPED. My alternative doctor (real MD alt. Dr) said metals end up settling in the thyroid and prevent the beneficial minerals from being absorbed by/into the body; difficult to remove even with detoxing. I have noticed a difference in my symptoms since taking the clay. I don’t have the pressure in my throat or /Thyroid storms’ that I used to have and the ‘tension heat’ in my body, and I don’t have – fly off the handle reactions as I used to. I feel a little more even or balanced.
I only wish the clay had an effect on low adrenals. Can’t take stimulating adaptogens – doesn’t help the hyper stuff.
Be very careful when looking up ‘THYROID’ in any health book or talking to a doctor/health practitioner; don’t go near iodine if you have hyPERthyroidism; it’s like hi-octane in a horse ‘n’ buggy. The professional geniuses tend to clump all thyroid conditions into one fix; IODINE; good for HyPO not HyPER. -Kathy E.
Hyperthyroidism- Graves Disease
My GP (General Practitioner Dr) told me I would have to face 6 months of iron injections in the butt to deal with my anemia and then my thyroid was Graves disease and they would have to kill it and I would be on meds for the rest of my life. My GP said I had done so much for myself with this clay that he would like to put it to the test. I was to report every Monday at the same time for blood work and we would monitor it. Inside of 4 weeks I was no longer anemic nor was I hyper thyroid. The Dr’s told me that thyroids never heal themselves……. To this day I continue to drink the clay but only 5 oz 3 times a day. Truly a life saver and a blessing. It is amazing when used properly.
I find people do not stay on it long enough nor do they take large enough doses. One of the biggest mistakes is they stir it instead of shaking it. At the first sign of a bit of discomfort they stop using it. I get asked a lot if the clay just sits in your colon…..well I tell ya after 6 colonoscopies in 4 months if the Dr’s saw clay I would have known about it, instead they saw unexplainable healing. – Marg L.
Hypothyroid & Sleep
I started taking clay in March of 2010. I am hypothyroid, and take snythroid medication. I took my clay 4 hours away from the meds, while on the detox dose twice a day. And two hours away from my supplements. Now, that I am done with the detox I only take the clay at bedtime. I take two ounces every night at 8:15 p.m. I am sleeping much better since I started the clay. Drink plenty of water every day, this is what pushes the toxins through your system. If you don’t drink a lot of water, like 8 glasses a day, you may get bound up from the old fecal matter it pulls out. My sister did this too and she now drinks all the water and is feeling mighty fine. – Diane W. Ingrown Toenail and Infection.
I have been using the clay for about 4 years now, and I keep finding great uses for it. I love using it as a face mask and drinking it and I also use it for pain. I have been fighting ingrown toe nails for years, going months with infections that nothing seems to help. I have tried all kinds of essential oils and ointments, but the first time I used the clay, from my clay mask jar on my toe, I was not sure what really helped. This last time after going through the whole process again of essential oils and ointments, I used the clay on my toe and put plastic wrap on it over night. The next morning, pain and redness were gone. I was so happy since I wanted to dance at my sons wedding that week end. I will continue use the clay as often as I need and hope to find other uses for it. – Mary Lou S.
Intertrigo Rash Relief
I live in a very warm and humid environment and this summer I began developing an irritation under my breasts. The skin was very red and would range in feeling from itching to burning. This condition is known as “Intertrigo”, which develops from the chafing of warm moist skin. (Especially in areas where you sweat and have skin on skin contact. ie under my breasts.)
Before I even did any research on this condition I went straight to my special clay, (which I always have on hand and has been such a blessing for so many other issues, burns, injuries etc.) I applied a thin, yet liberal amount to the red area. I instantly felt a nice cooling effect from the clay. I left it on for about 20 minutes. I repeated this the next day and when rinsing the clay off on Day 2, the Intertrigo was practically gone! I am so thankful for the quick and natural healing and relief the cay gave me. And next time it tries to manifest, I’ll know exactly what to do. Thank you . – Clover H.
(These pictures were taken on Day 1 and Day 2.)
Lump Infection on Foot
I had a lump on the ball of my foot. I had had a tumor removed from there 15 years earlier. This area was raised or swollen and slightly irritating. Sometimes not always. Usually I noticed discomfort. Then I decided I was going to apply clay. I put the clay on and covered with plastic to keep on my foot. Soon, a couple of hours there was the worse odor and the dog kept sniffing my foot. I checked the area and didn’t see anything unusual and I left the plastic on. I could feel relief. When the smell and a little drainage was over the area was clean and no longer bothersome. This really worked… – Janet M.
Lyme’s
While walking in the woods, I was bitten by a black legged deer tick, and after pulling it out and going to the doctor, I was confirmed to have Lymes. I again, filled that swollen hole and bull’s eye rash with the clay mud. I was tested a few week’s later, and I am negative for Lymes! It soon reduced the bull’s eye, and the swelling and took the pain away. – Linda W.
Lyme’s Disease
Clay has been a life saver for me. I was dying from undiagnosed Lyme’s Disease, low/slow thyroid, gall stones, tooth and gum infections…I am healed and getting better every day.
It all started in 2007. I started feeling bad and kept going downhill. I started feeling cold all the time, hair falling, body temp 94 in the a.m. I was constantly sick and felt like I was a dead woman walking. Finally in June, 2010, my Doctor decided to have me tested for Lyme’s Disease. I tested positive. He put me on doxycycline for 3 weeks. I did not get better, I got worse! Believe me when I say I tried everything. Then I found out about clay and talked to Perry A~.
The bottom line, less than a month on this Life Saving Clay and I feel like a brand new person. My gums have cleared up and all my problems have gone away. I drank, Clay 2 ounces 2 times a day, ate clay cookies, took 5 foot soaks for 30 minutes in one month plus 1 clay bath. (I put a liquid clay mix of 1 part Clay to 6 parts of warm water in rubber boots up to my ankles and massaged coconut oil on feet afterwards.) The healing began WELL BEFORE a month. So, LESS than a month, I feel well again and I am well on my way to a FULL recovery!! -Jae C.
Lyme’s Disease- Chronic
It’s just fabulous for anyone but especially for Chronic Lyme Disease, the root of all of my health issues. People with Lyme Disease and co-infections (Borellia, Babesia, Bartinella, and Mycoplasma in my case) absolutely need to rid the body of the spirochete die-off but also parasites, heavy metals and toxicities that contribute to the total body burden. Whether by pharmaceutical or natural antibiotics, (my personal protocol includes immune support products from my brilliant father and highly antimicrobial therapeutic-grade essential oils, specifically YoungLiving – also found in nature.) once destroyed, the dead spirochetes must be removed from the body or will become neurotoxins. This is done in many ways but very simply, painlessly, and effectively with clay. I bath in it regularly and take it internally to cleanse my body of all the nasty bugs and toxins. I must say, God knows what He is doing. In His very creation, He gave us all we need to heal and maintain health naturally. I give Him all the glory. – Carla S.
Lyme’s Disease-Night Sweats
When I get night sweats from Lyme disease – I get up and drink an oz. or 2 of liquid clay in water – it always helps cut the fever, then I can sleep. – Coya S.
MRSA Infection
I had a mosquito bite on the back of my right leg that I scratched and got infected with what the doctor claimed as a granular staph infection. Since it was granular the 2 bouts of antibiotics had no effect on the wound. It was still necropsying so I knew I needed to find something that would pull the infection out of the wound topically. The infection was now what I believe to be MRSA. I searched the internet and eventually came upon your website among others that described the healing powers of the living clays. I ordered the bentonite clay and started applying a wet paste of the clay the first week of December in 2011. There was a noticeable change of the wound within 2 days. It was not as red and “angry” as it had been prior to the clay. I would mix the clay with distilled water and apply it directly over the wound and cover it with part of a collard green leaf (I found it worked better than cellophane wrap) and wrapped the area of my leg with an ace bandage. I would change the dressing 3 times a day for the first two weeks and then reduced it back to 2 times a day after that. By mid-January (approx. 7 weeks) the “infection” was cleared. The wound is still healing from the whole that it left in my leg, but at least the necropsying has stopped and the underlying tissue is healing. In all, it has taken about 3 months to get to this point. The clay was very soothing to the area of the wound. The pain associated with the infection was pretty bad and within 3 weeks the soreness had subsided. I know that it sounds like a long time but with the depth of the wound and the infection involved, it certainly was faster and less evasive than the alternative of various antibiotics and possible skin grafting that I was told was to be expected.
Both of my children who are in the medical field, one is a doctor of osteopathy and the other a nurse, along with the dermatologist I originally saw for the infection, wanted me to continue with the antibiotics. This would have involved months of this medication that obviously was not affecting the site at all but was upsetting everything else in my system. I knew that for me this was not an option. I know there are more organic ways of healing our organic bodies so that is why I went on the search.
I am glad to say that I won out on all levels! The wound is healing and I did not have to sacrifice my bank account and relative health to achieve this outcome. If you’re an outdoors person like me, this is a product that is a must for your “medicine cabinet”!
The pictures I included are of what the wound looked like when I started using the clay (#1) along with what the clay actually was pulling out (#2) and what the site looks like as of a week ago (#3). Thank you for spreading the word on such a wonderful, natural product! – Connie M.
MRSA Infection-Boil
I used thick clay poultices 3 times a day for my 50 cent size MRSA infection/boil. I got immediate relief from the pain and the swelling that was past my wrist. I have not needed to take any ibuprophin since, I was taking 800mg every 4-6 hrs. I am reluctantly taking the antibiotics but feel that it was the clay that prompted my speedy healing. I still have a rather large boil but it is now draining. I am so excited about the clay!! Why are the Drs not using it? I am planning on telling as many people as I can about it! Now I am putting a bath tub in my back yard for mud baths!! Thanks again and feel free to use my testimonial. – Denise

prostate – Decrease in PSA Blood Work
About 18 months ago, a co-worker had to have his prostate removed. At his one year check up things looked clean but he still had to have blood work accomplished every 3 months. In January of this year, he approached me and said even though he didn’t have a prostate anymore, his PSA was climbing. I asked how could this be and he said the doctors told him the cancer seems to collect in the area where the prostate used to be which is seen by the elevated PSA count. I immediately gave him my supply of hydrated clay and told him to start drinking 4 oz in the morning and at night (boy did I miss my clay, but it was worth it). Two weeks later he went back for more blood work and his PSA was down and in the green. – Dan R.
Puncture Wound Infection – Dog Bite
On Thanksgiving my husband stepped on a sleeping dog and got three to the bone puncture bites. The first day we soaked it in an iodine and Dead Sea Salt solution. By the second day it didn’t look good and his other toes and top of his foot were red, hot and puffy so I knew he had an infection. So I made him stick his foot in a baggie of clay changing it several times a day along with iodine dressings in between. Then I made him sleep with it packed. By the first morning of this the redness was gone and he said it didn’t hurt. By day five it was completely healed. He was amazed. No pain No infection no and no $500 ER co-pay.
I am a former critical care nurse and I have seen patients with infections that the strongest antibiotics couldn’t heal. After seeing all the iatrogenic conditions that modern medicine causes and doing FDA drug trial studies, I stay as far away from these drugs as I can. The clay is incredible. I am trying to get a relative to use it in a chronic MRSA wound that is costing him pieces of his lower leg yearly from debridement it has never healed and the doctors say it never will. I know the clay would work. Thank you again. – Rosemarie C.
Sarcoidosis Complications Helped
I have been using the clay internally and externally. I applied a clay poultice to my liver and kidney area and have had no more pain. Recent blood work has proven it effective as all of my liver and kidney numbers are back to normal and I experience no pain. I have had a good report lately but need to be more consistent with applying the clay to my chest at night to completely rid my body of this MAC infection (Mycobacterium avium complex) and that will reduce the forming of nodules common in Sarcoidosis. – Carla S.
Scarcoma – Post Surgery Swellin
I am post surgery, major sarcoma resection of a 6 inch tumor in my thigh. This only grew within a few months despite radiation. I am now 3 months after the surgery and the swelling was immense even with a drain for one month. I am young, and do move around, use a rebounder and did everything to reduce the swelling. My PT was measuring my thigh each week. After taking 3 clay baths, 2 cups each bath for 20 minutes, within one week or so, my swelling has reduced by 3/4 inch. This is amazing. Swelling does not absorb into the lymphatic’s that quick. I believe it was the clay baths that reduced the swelling in my thigh. – Lisa K.
Staph Infections Begins to Cleared in 1 day with Clay
Thank you so much for your product. I am only 48 years old, but I have several degenerative diseases, including arthritis and bone degeneration. Only 2 months ago, my entire PELVIS caved in, and I had an emergency hip replacement and my hip was “glued” back together. I was only in hospital for four days. Upon return home, I was heavily medicated and was not using common sense. I began to clean and work around the house. I developed HUGE pressure blisters on my legs from the knee down, and the blisters were the size of paper plates (I only weigh 90 pounds and am 5 feet 4 inches). My right leg re-collapsed into my pelvis one inch! Anyway, I just have to live with one leg shorter than the other. After the blisters popped, I got STAPH!!! (I already had a “small patch of it’ when they released me, but it spread. My entire legs were filled with puss, ooze, blood. It got to the point where they almost had to amputate my legs. I got the clay, and within 1 day, 1 day, 1 day, my legs began to clear up. I know Jesus is involved in this miraculous healing, too, and I am sure that this is the clay used in the manna and the clay Jesus used to heal the blind man (John). I had faith that it would work. It is so soothing and wonderful. I put it on my legs in the bathtub, soak them for 15 minutes, and then shower them off. I then use the clay on my legs, and I just reapply every 8 hours or so. I am nearly healed, and my legs have been saved!!!!!!! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU -MONIQUE B.
Swelling Lymph Glands
About 3 months ago I noticed swelling in my arm pits. My wife, Carol thought this could possibly be a reaction to something in my diet, but it is always hard to track down the source. We normally take at least 2 clay baths a week to maintain our health, as well as drinking the clay daily. I started in ingesting the clay twice daily rather than once a day. I increased the clay baths to once daily, and we began applying a clay pack to my armpits at night. I used the Glad Press and Seal to hold the clay in place during the night. This worked very well! Within about 5 days the swelling went away, and so far, it has not reappeared. I feel the clay stimulated the lymphatic system and addressed the toxic overload. Yea for Clay! -Chuck R.
Takayasis Arteritis in Remission with Clay
My daughter-in-law has been on clay now for 2 months! She has a rare disease called Takayasis Arteritis. Her arteries are inflamed and brittle all over her body. She has been declared in remission after 1 mo on the clay and we are praying for continued remission. Thank you for the great help you give, it is such a blessing! – Jane A.
Thirteen Year Illness Gone After a Month on Clay
I am turning 25 in just a few days and have been taking the clay internally three times a day for a month now. I have been sick on and off for 13 years and the traditional doctors could never find a cure for me. I had just accepted that I had a sickly body and a weak immune system. I had bald spots and began fainting at the age of 12, then at 20 I became nauseous all of the time. When I graduated from college, I was so sick that I needed to take some time off before obtaining my masters degree. I began researching different ways to detoxify my body. I started getting colonics, bought an infrared sauna, and eating raw food. But it was only when I started drinking a liquid clay Calcium Bentonite clay that I started feeling like a normal human being for the first time in 13 years!!! After 3 weeks, I had an energy surge. I started wanting to do things I hadn’t wanted to do in a long, long time…simple things like take a hike with my family. This clay has given me back my passion to live my life to the fullest. Before the clay, I was sick, exhausted, and depressed. Now, I feel alive! People are even saying how good my skin looks! Like I have a glow!! I will, without a doubt, be a lifelong customer. Anytime I have any questions, I just call Perry A. and she answers my calls directly and with such kindness and grace. This clay truly saved my life. – Stephanie D.
Toenail Fungus Gone
I’ve known about and used calcium bentonite clay for several years. I haven’t been consistent, and yet I’ve experienced amazing results. Recently, I decided to begin a consistent program using Living Clay, consisting of 2 ounces of Liquid Clay taken internally twice a day, and at least one clay bath a week. My main objective was to gain and maintain a balanced, healthy body, and to work on ridding myself of warts and moles in particular. The other problem I knew I wanted to work on was the yellow fungus on my toes. Both my big toes had a yellow tint to the nail bed, and the toenails were rough and uneven.
About a week ago, just before my clay bath, I decided I would start taking care of the fungus by soaking my feet in a concentrated clay mixture. I poured the clay into a plastic container large enough to get one foot at a time in and had everything ready. I don’t really examine my feet that often, so I was very surprised to see that instead of the dingy, yellow discoloration I’d noticed weeks before, the nails were nice and smooth, the nail bed was a rosy pink and my toes looked healthier than they ever had! This, just from using the clay consistently! This stuff just keeps producing amazing results, and my body keeps getting better and better and better!
Thank you Mother Earth, for this wonderful substance – Phillip M.
Urinary Track Infection
I have discovered a good reason to stay on the clay. I wasn’t using it and I developed a Urinary Tract Infection. OMG, it was the worst I ever had. I went to the Dr. (not too bright). She put me on seven days of antibiotic. Which I took like a lemming. (A small animal that follows others no matter where it leads.) She also gave me something to control my uncontrollable urination. After seven days I still had extreme burning and pain. I called her and she put me on more, stronger antibiotic. Well six days into this and I knew I wasn’t burning as bad but that I was not cured and I was not asking for more antibiotic. So I woke early one morning and applied hydrated clay “a large blob” to my urethra. I went back to bed, because I had stinging when I was just laying there. I dosed off and woke up with the stinging practically gone. I took a shower and applied more clay, and left it on all day. I didn’t urinate for a couple of hours BUT when I did it was the darkest, the smelliest stuff I ever knew. To sniff a bottle of pure ammonia would be an understatement. I knew then I was going to be ok. So I left the clay on, I think just leaving the clay to do its work is the best thing you can do. Last night before going to bed I applied more hydrated clay and awoke this morning with a full bladder and no pain. Prior to this I had been leaking at night. This a.m. the color was very dark but did not smell. I took a shower and applied more clay and I am awaiting the outcome of that. I will keep the clay on as long as I feel the need because I think I will know when I am cleaned out.
I had a foot problem and I left it on there and in fact wrapped it airtight and it got better. I hope this will help someone and also give you the motivation to keep the clay on/in/around the problem. -Janet M.
Urinary Tract Infection – Reoccurring
I have suffered from recurring urinary tract infections for several years. I have had so many that they usually go straight to the kidney and are resistant to the antibiotics that are used to treat it since I have used them so much and have developed a tolerance to them. I have undergone a cystoscopy to be sure there are no abnormalities that would cause this and all was normal. To completely rid myself of infection I have had to use Cipro for twice as long as the usual treatment, sometimes longer. Leviquin was to be the next drug to try. In January, at Mayo Clinic, I saw an urologist and was put on Cipro as a preventative, taking one to two pills after intercourse since the infections invariably occur at these times. Needless to say, this has been a problem in my marriage not to mention the frequency of infection and all that goes along with that. Recently, I had the bright idea to try an experiment….:-) You can probably guess what I did….. Since most often the cultures show Ecoli, I can assume it is caused by bacteria that enters the urethra during intercourse regardless of how much I wash or clean myself before and after. So, after intercourse, I applied a little of the clay mask to the point of entry for this bacteria. Yep, you guessed it! No need for antibiotic and no infection. This has been fabulous! – Anonymous
Vertigo Relief
I am 56 years old, and usually am never sick, and have never had vertigo before. I was too sick to do a detox bath right away–though I knew that would help immensely. I just could not get it ready. So I did drink a dose of clay in some juice. Then I put a clay mask on my face, neck and feet. I left this on for about an hour. This helped enough that I was then able to mix up the clay (2 cups of dry clay), and take a detox bath for 15-20 minutes. That evening I did another clay mask on my face only. I then did another clay bath a few days later. I think being more aggressive with the baths and masks (face and feet) would really see quicker results, possibly a bath a day or more a day. But I did get immediate relief from the vertigo, enough after the mask that I was able to ready the bath. And the bath was a big help. No more dizziness just more feeling weak. We thank God for this clay every day! We keep the Living Clay book handy for ready use and reference. -Patty E.
Wife’s Fibromyalgia
First thing I would like to say is “THANK YOU” for making your this clay available to the world…!!! As you know, over a year ago Linda got fed up with mainstream medicine continuously feeding her drugs, drugs, and more drugs in what was an attempt to control (not CURE) her Fibromyalgia. After hearing you speak on the Power Hour she decided to take charge of her own life by giving up ALL her meds over night (cold turkey) and turn to the living clay. Knowing how things work (or don’t work) when it comes to the FDA, you could only say it might help. What an under statement…!!! Today, Linda has lost almost 60 pounds (without exercising) and for the past month or so has been mowing our lawn (as well as my mother’s) and is basically a new person. I am not saying she is cured but the truth is, I haven’t seen her this physical in 15 plus years…she even went out and bought a bicycle to ride…thank you both again for giving me my wife back!!! -Dan R.
Yeast Infection
I have been prone to yeast infections my whole life, especially in hot weather. Well I received my first yeast infection and I took a clay bath then made a paste and applied to the Urethra area and drank 2 oz twice a day and the itch and pain was gone when I woke up. I have never received relief like that with any medication and I have not had a yeast infection since. – Adriana V.
