    About WOSH
    WOSH is a natural mineral bar made with Kisameet Glacial Clay which is ethically hand sourced near British Columbia’s central coast. WOSH exclusively uses Kisameet Glacial Clay in our products because of its remarkable and scientifically supported healing properties alongside its ability to support and nourish the skin’s natural microbiome.

    Kisameet Glacial Clay was first researched by MIT in the 1940s, ongoing extensive research continues at UBC to further support the clay’s remarkable qualities. It is now recognized by the global scientific and medical community for its unique healing properties. We invite you to read this report from the American Society for Microbiology about Kisameet Clay’s effectiveness against the ESKAPE pathogens.

    “More than 50 years of misuse and overuse of antibiotics has led to a plague of antibiotic resistance that threatens to reduce the efficacy of antimicrobial agents available for the treatment of infections due to resistant organisms. We report the broad-spectrum and potent antibacterial activity of Kisameet clay, a natural clay mineral from British Columbia, Canada, against a group of multidrug-resistant ESKAPE strains”.
