I have a new natural health obsession lately... clay.
Strange as it sounds, this oh-so-natural product of the earth also possesses amazing healing qualities.
Just the other week, I shared how clay has become a go-to item in my natural medicine cabinet (along with 8 ways that our family uses it). Whether you use it for cuts and scrapes, burns, detoxifying, insect stings and bites, stomach ailments, or any other number of ways, it is a very handy item to have on hand for first aid and for health in general.
Earlier this year, I shared my new favorite toothpaste, Earthpaste. You guessed it. It's made of clay! It sounds a little different, but don't knock it until you've tried it, or at least read some of my thoughts on it.
If you've been interested in trying out clay for yourself, or my wild ramblings about eating dirt have intrigued you at the very least, you'll love this giveaway from Remond Trading Company!
As part of our Fall Giveaway Week, we have 3 introductory clay packages to give away. Here's what they include:
10 oz jar of powdered clay
This loose, powdered Bentonite clay can be used for clay baths, for liquifying (so that you can drink it), or to make into a paste for any other purpose.
1 tube of Facial Mud
This tube of hydrated clay is the perfect consistency to apply as a facial mask, for toning, shrinking pores, and removing toxins and impurities.
1 tube of First Aid clay
Ready-to-use clay for all your first aid needs- I use mine for burns, scrapes, cuts, stings, bites, rashes, infections and more.
1 bottle of Stomach Health clay capsules
These capsules can be taken for most kinds of digestive distress, like heartburn or reflux, upset stomach, diarrhea, among other things.
1 tube of Peppermint Earthpaste
The clay-based toothpaste that our family has grown to love. Free of sodium lauryl sulfate, fluoride, glycerin, artificial coloring or foaming agents.
Total value? About $50! You'll also receive some other samples of Redmond products, as well as information to help you learn more about them and how to use them.
Would you like to be entered to win one of these Redmond Clay packages?

Thanks for this helpful post. I would be interested in trying the basic redmond clay as we have four children and live in the deep south which means.... fire ant bites. From what I read in your blog it looks like maybe the clay would help to take the sting out of the bites. :) Thanks again for the blog
I'm having problems with my teeth, so i'd love to try the toothpaste!

Oh yay! I've been wanting to try clay for my face since reading your article! And I'm a klutz, so the boo-boo paste would come in handy, too. LOL
Hi Steph,
A friend (Lola) had suggested I check out your site a few months ago, and I'm so enthralled with everything you write about! Now I need to go back through the archives....!!!! After moving to a small little North American town after living in Africa...it's fabulous to find 'like-minded friends'...even if they're in cyberspace ; ) Very excited to try this clay...I have children who frequently need soothing creams to heal 'boo-boos.'
Question : If I am pregnant, may I still consume clay in any form? Or bathe in it?
So many things I would love to try--we just tried Earthpaste and love it...well, if I could get my husband to actually try it-he has having a tough time getting past the appearance! I would love to try the 1st aid paste-with small children we are always getting scrapes!
I have the earthpaste and LOVE it! I really want to try the capsules of the first aid paste!
You can e-mail customer service at Redmond Trading Company and they will give you generous samples of their earthpaste. I did and am now trying their earthpaste...so far love it!
I would love to win the earth paste. I have been contemplating making my own but haven't made the jump to purchase the ingredients and after your raving reviews would love to test it out!
Also, we go to India for a month each year and I would love to take some clay along to see if it helps with the tummy situations!
This would be awesome!
I have been wanting to try this toothpaste and this clay! Heres to hoping I am a winner! :)
I finally tried Earthpaste and I do like it. I'd love to try the first aid cream and the stomach capsules.
