Today, Alyssa's cut from yesterday was all red and icky.  We put clay and then a bandaid on it at about 9:30am.  By noon it was gross so she took it off and it's improving already

I am so impressed.  I am buying a bunch of clay to do full body clay baths to detox.  I am also thinking "clay" when things happen compared to it used to sit in the back of the cupboard and by the time I thought of it, it was "too late"  (things were gone or gone too far in one instance when dh got and infection and it was cellular by then and needed FAST action). 

We are trying to use it on Alyssa's blackheads and breakouts and so far it's not doing anything but we are still working on it .  I am tryiing to figure out how to get them to take clay internally but so far they are afraid to try

I have been terrible about taking clay internally though I know it would probably help my alelrgies if I did
So glad to hear that Jodi. I know you have had a lot of things coming at you all at once. 
Its easier for me to make a big batch and have it handy to drink. (The texture is a little different that way but im getting better at hiding it in things.)Then I can just throw it in whatever during the day when I remember to. It just works to well for me to forget. For some reason, chocolate makes it disapear completely. I put some in cocoa and I had to retrace my steps to be sure I had added it in.
And for some very odd reason, If I add it to straight lemon juice I actually enjoy it? Very odd because it looks horrible   
Earthslivingclay.com has the internal clay and also a less expensive bath clay. I buy both. I think the bath clay turns out to something like half the cost as the internal clay. I bought it from their current sale at the time so im not so sure. But if you take the clay internally regularly, it takes less over time. Even in the bath.
Something not to miss about clay baths though, is you dont want to stay in to long if you are doing a full strenght clay bath, detox type of bath. I think 20 minutes is the recommended time if I remember off the top of my head.
We do light baths and I cover the metal drain with a plastic lid. Probably not necessary but thats what we do
