I wish I had time for a longer review but while re-ordering I saw that this product only had one and thought I should add a word. This clay has changed my life. I am a 30-year-old woman who has had worsening fibromyalgia-type symptoms over the past five years (joint pain and stiffness, worse in the morning). I read about this clay about four months ago and tried it -- I could feel a big difference in less than a week! Now, I sleep like a baby, my aches and pains are all but gone and I feel like a teenager again! Try it!!

Update: It's important to drink lots of water when taking this product. I had a period where I got busy and too-little-water + clay = constipation. Reading reviews elsewhere, I learned that this can happen and that psyllium husk (metamucil) capsules are a recommended adjunct to the supplement. I've been taking them with the clay plus water and it's solved the problem.

I ordered this product after reading about it on the internet. This company I ordered from sent a lot of additional info about the product and some free samples. I was amazed at the wonderful service. This type of service is hard to come by these days. Proud to be among the daily "clay eaters".

So far, I'm liking this product.I believe that the detoxing aspect of this product is going to help me with my fibromyalgia. I do have more energy. I'm not down and out on the sofa by 2 or 3 in the afternoon like I was before. I started out taking the powder three times a week for a couple weeks, then increased to everyday. I've had no problems with it at all. No constipation...but, I do drink lots of water. Water is essential, if not to keep the constipation at bay then for the detox. The powder is not designed to do all the work. We have to do our part.

HELP FOR PICA!!!!

I'm preggers with my 7th child and during my 3rd pregnancy and in each after (including this one)I developed a craving to eat dirt. My OB told me it was Pica- which is a desire to eat non-food substances . If you look up the definition anywhere it usually mentions Pica to be a mental disorder. That really makes me angry considering that alot of pregnant women have Pica. Maybe our bodies are starving to death for the minerals in this clay ! I've found that it is very common in other contries for pregnant women to eat dirt to get their mineral supplements(instead of a pill). This stuff has been a life saver for me !
* I should mention I have no mental disorder and I have no desire to eat dirt when I'm not pregnant .

A review above mentioned drinking enough water with this to prevent constapation, I also wanted to caution that, One should drink plenty of water with ANY mineral supplement to prevent kidney stones as they are excess mineral deposites. I want to stress that I'm not saying the risk is increased with this product in general but, with ANY mineal supplement or vitamin.

This expensive product is almost identical to other products. If you're using this on a regular basis, I'd suggest you look into these other products: Azomite, and a general calcium montmorrilonite clay ("CM clay").

Compare the contents of them, and you'll see they're almost identical. Azomite has a special name, as does Terramin, and they are organic, but CM clay is found deep in the earth and is the product of volcanic magma. There's nothing else in it by definition.

Here are the data sheets for Azomite and Terramin, which you can use to compare what's actually in them. Some elements are given as percent (%) and some are given as "parts per." Terramin has 3 percentage points more iron, for instance, but they're both mostly silica dioxide (>55%).
Please see the links in the comments section, as amazon censors them for some reason. (They aren't links to buy anything...)

Here's general information on CM clay, and also details how to make clay magma:

I've found that there are sites that sell calcium Montmorrilonite clay in bulk, and it's fractions of the cost of this. If you search for "green clays" online, you'll find the site. They sell in bulk, 15 pounds for $55, and it comes in a 2 pounds bucket.

This is a good product, but the fancy packaging and the exorbitant price can really keep you from taking it as often as you might need to. You might want to check out the actual data sheets on them and see that they're mostly the same thing. Try various ones and find the option that is best for you.

Well, I believe that it's working; I read in the internet that this supplement was a good antioxidant, but the reason that I purchased it was because I was suffering from an injury to the palm of my hand. The trauma was due to a fall that may have generated the growth of a cyst which most likely may be benign, further indicating that it could be operated, suctioned, medicated with no guarantees or take the supplement that is the calcium mentmorillonite clay (Terramin,) recommended to be taken in small doses (half a teaspoon in 8 ounces of water in an empty stomach once a day.) Before taking it I could not support my weight when leaning on the palm of my hand, I realize that it has been only 30 days, I'll see how the next 30 days plays out...I am well over 50 years old, play racquetball three times a week and feel great.
