Is Clay Drinking For Ulcerative Colitis A Good Long Term Aid?
I've got ulcerative colitis for 5 years now and am still struggling to find the right balance between diet, meds and supplements. I have recently tried drinking clay+water and it really helped. I wonder whether I can adopt this as a long-term aid. Is there any medical risk associated with drinking clay everyday?
