It's my first week and I do feel better...definitely knocked down the Blood Pressure - haven't got the energy boost as some people have but think it will take a little time only 5 days in.

One thing it does do is clears you right out - if you have Colon issues or a Tapeworm think it would be homerun for those issues. All in all think its good stuff and supposedly lowers your Cholesterol - keep in mind its dirt & tastes like it but am up to 3 tablespoons a day - just chase it with water and you should be good.

"Benefits of Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth"


"Diatomaceous earth is a sedimentary rock that can easily turn into a white powder when crumbled. It is primarily made up of skeletal structures from under water plant forms also known as fossils. It is a combination of minerals such as iron, magnesium and calcium and can be used for maintaining optimum physical well-being. It has shown many nutritional and anti-fungal benefits in both humans and animals alike.
Lowers Bad Cholesterol

Low density lipoprotein, also known as LDL is bad cholesterol and bad cholesterol is most often consumed through diets that are high in trans fat such as fried foods, cookies and pastries. It is a wax-like build up that clogs arteries and can cause potentially life-threatening disorders such as heart attacks. According to the Detox Specialist, diatomaceous earth is able to lower high cholesterol through the blood. It is also capable of elevating good cholesterol levels the body needs to stay healthy."

Dear BABYBULL24,

A flag and a star because ATS is quiet tonight and I found your post amusing. I had never heard that such a thing is good for your cholesterol, I will now have to investigate it.

So you have willpower?

I envy you.

Just found out I have pre diabetes, have to go to a class....ick.....


Now all I can do is eat carbs and sugar like the world will end if I don't.

Why is it when I hear "stop doing that!" My brain says. "NO!!!!!! You must never stop doing that, you must do it more!!!!"

It's not that kind of dirt.

I've fed it to my dogs periodically for parasites, and if they catch fleas or ticks, it's safe to rub it into their fur to kill the unwanted bugs.

You have to be very careful that they don't breathe in the dust, or get it in their eyes. It's very irritating to lungs and eyes.

It's very drying on the skin too, so they need a good skin conditioning bath after a while (olive oil), and I don't feed it to them all the time - it gives them gas.

Farmers feed it to their animals, so around here I get a huge bag for $40.
I've heard it's good for people too, but with the gasiness the dogs get

I remembered the possible side effect.
It can also kill off your good gut bugs. Stuff needed for proper digestion.

If you're eating the earth, you need to also eat probiotics and prebiotics.
I think you can get some of the good digestive bacteria you need by eating cheese, yoghurt, and fermented foods.
Eat a few hours apart from when you eat the earth.

The earth seems like it would hide well in soups, stews, gravies, smoothies......
