I did a fair amount of reading about clay baths before deciding to try it. I too am skeptical and I certainly wouldn't buy something just because it is advertised on "Even Better Now" or any website for that matter. I decided to give this a try because, number one, it is relatively inexpensive, number two, it is a remedy for general detoxing used by numerous alternative healers, and three, Eric Edney makes very strong claims about the benefits. I fully acknowledge and am aware that, number one, there is no medical proof that this is an effective ALS remedy, and number two, that Edney is a controversial figure in the ALS world.

To me there's a big difference in spending $20,000 to fly off to China and let some quack drill a hole in your head, or spending $5,000 on some charlatan who claims you really have Lyme disease and he can "cure" you, as opposed to investing $40 in a foot bath. I'm determined to try a lot of different things so long as they make some common sense, do not cost a lot of money, and are non-invasive. The clay baths fall in that category for me.

FYI -> I was at a dance competition all weekend, yup, living my new life post-diagnosis.
