We haven't researched this or tested this product but hope to, and will only stock it if it is true.
If they are marketting this then it is certainly scientifically and economically viable and there is nothing to say that it is not already available in some countries or that other brands have not brought out something similar.

thats very interesting indeed still wouldn't trust it myself especially with the babies, don't get me wrong i have nothing against sand an have used it for yrs now with never any problem but would never put my babies on it till there big enough even if it did dissolve
