My asthma was worse in the morning so I would drink it with breaksfast. I think bed time and an empty stomach is what I have read is most effective though.
I noticed that when I took it I would get a lot of drainage from my nose/throat then everything would clear out and I would feel great and breathe so much better.
As long as I stayed away from my really big triggers I didn't need my inhaler or benadryl. Like if the dr's office forgot and put me in a room that had been used all day with latex gloves I would react. But if I had minimal contact, the clay worked. If I forgot or didn't take the clay for the weekend I would be back on the inhaler everyday even without being near my main triggers.

And with the red/tghtness with facials, from experience only some clays do that to me, the one I use now doesn't do that all.
And I wouldn't drink any clay that had an odor or taste.

THANK YOU! I think I may get some at least for dh to try, if not, some for my self too!

General question to anyone out there, does the clay clog drains and such over time if you use it to bathe in and wash your face?
