The skeletons of many types of sea life and marine organisms are actually made using silica, and therefore it seems to pose no major risks to most species.

Anyway, a good read and so many comments to read through too. For hair, weight loss , face? It works great if you maintain proper hydration. Not sure, if you want to try it, i suggest starting with a very small dose. You really need to concentrate on healing your leaky gut. I know a lot can be done in cases like yours with proper diet. I would consult a naturopathic doctor first.
The title is irritating. Reading through the comments, it looks like no one agrees with you. That might be an indication that you are off-base on this. Also pysillium husk activated charcoal bentonite clay works too. I am into all homeopathic medicines herbs and teas. Can someone please clarify? I have been ingesting DE for many years and like it.
I mix it with some Apple Cider Vinegar first to activate it and then put it in my smoothie. I have no health problems. I am 52 now. I have recommended DE to all my clients too. They have had great results. It is a collagen booster. Great for hair skin nails joints bones and improving digestion. The guy you quoted used no scientific studys or references.
If you look it up on ncmbi you find it lowers cholesterol extremely. Like any supplement its not a one size fit all but I do not know that eventually it will be included in a pharmaceutical.
Anyone have some actual proof or a keyword for a starting point on pubmed? Though it is super effective at pest control and keeping dry foods dry in a completely non-toxic way. Diatomaceous earth is an excellent tool to keep pests off our food and increase its shelf life with no side effects! I do this as part of the Root Cause Protocol which thousands of people worldwide follow with great results.
It took a week after stopping the celery juice for my stomach to come right and after a break I tried it again but same problems arose. I re-tried several times but it was no good. Bought some food grade off amazon, and totally regret it. Not only did it make my stomach ache. I feel awful. I would like to find a way to detox the diatomaceous earth. Bob, I am sincerely sorry that you suffered so much from consuming it without researching what you were taking and knowing to never inhale it.
Without diatomaceous earth the only thing I could use for my arthritis at this point would be immunosuppressants and they would destroy my immune system. Please, please point your ire at the people that deserve it- the ones who told you about it without any of the warnings. It was incredibly irresponsible of them. Eating ground up glass is a sure way to agonisingly kill yourself. Thousands of people, including myself, have taken DE for years, decades even, without having ripped our stomachs and guts to shreds.
DE will add minerals to your body and not cause mineral deficiencies. I believe food grade DE is safe to ingest when used properly and not over used. Start slow, take it for 2 weeks on then 2 weeks off. Inhaling DE is another thing, you want to avoid inhaling it because it can cause lung problems, which is luckily reversible most of the time.

With all due respect, to the Medical Medium, celery is one of the worst produce for pesticides even if after it has been juiced.
I first took Diatomaceous Earth about 5 years ago for several weeks and felt like I had more energy, I even liked the taste and looked forward to my daily drink. However I developed Gastritis while taking it, so I immediately stopped. I imagined my Gerd would of gotten worse anyway and was hoping it was just a coincidence that it happened when it did, so I decided to try it again a couple of months ago.
After 4 or 5 days my stomach started rattling around non stop which is how the Gastritis started last time and I had to stop taking it. I am a retired physician, and a naturopathic doctor too. I have treated GERD caused by helicobacter pylori , including myself. It is tough, and not a single element by itself does the job.. Hyperthermia, with Short Wave seem to be the most powerful part..
DE contains little Boron, so it might be useful, but you might be better with very small dosage, and very gradual increase, to prevent a Herxheimer response. Out of all the different uses, can anyone tell me if this stuff can be used to purify fruit juice by adding to boiling juice, in order to bring out impurities — but of course Not ingested?
I was a huge skeptic of the stuff and thought it was BS for the longest time thanks in part to your article , until i actually tried it and it literally cured my vision problems, my malnutrition issues and much more. I was scared of this substance but after taking it i see now that fear was unfounded. If you dont believe me, put a tbsp of DE in a glass of water and then let it settle for an hour. No matter what, it will always magnetically rearrange itself into the same pattern on the bottom of the glass, a perfectly level torroidal shape.
Ive never seen another substance do such a thing. Im a huge skeptic of pretty much everything woowoo, but this stuff is the real deal, i mean that from my heart. He is a New York Times bestselling author who has published 5 books.

Please keep us updated with more usefull informations. Food grade diatomaceous Earth helps your digestive tract in myriad ways, and has been used successfully for many years by many people.
It is indeed an asset for those with digestive ills. It is not meant to be eaten by humans. My husband tried it and had several serious seizures right afterward- he does have epilepsy due to brain trauma. He did not have a seizure in a long time before this, AND he never had more than one in a day. THis was 3 horrid ones, in a few short hours. He was very incoherant for a few minutes after, which he usually goes back to normal right away.
Just wanted to make sure people knew that it can interfere with meds. OTher than that, I feel great from it. I have three cats that i have used DE for fleas and worms. Two of them do fine on it. The third, has seizures. And she started having seizures before i used it internally for them. She was about two when this happened and had never had seizures before. I put it in their food and today she seized.
I think there are some essential oil and other methods for fleas and worms that i will try instead. If anyone has had luck with something else, please let me know. I am assuming it is mixed in much higher rates then folks are eating it. I can confirm that i get a rash reaction when it touches my skin. Also, my cat has developed a dry patch on her skin where she has a newly formed bald spot from over grooming.
No vet has been able to suggest a verified reason and after multiple pet specific solutions nothing has resulted in an answer to why she developed this habit. This started only when we moved into our latest apartment where the cleaners use D. I know this is simply an assumption but I have a feeling she may be reacting to the D. Perhaps there are multiple types of D.
I am in the process of doing deep cleaning and vacuuming quite often to get this stuff up but boy is it stubborn! It sounds very much as if your cat is allergic to fleas — this causes the cat affected to over-groom in an effort to relieve the itch and irritation they experience from even one flea bite.
I used to work in a well-known UK chemists and beauty shop, selling Mary Quant cosmetics, and every time I opened one of the stock drawers behind my counter there were carpet fleas. Whilst different types of fleas all have their own preference as to the host they most prefer to feast on, all of them will jump on any passing body. Hey guys I am Landon.
I wanted to start this off by saying I am not going to read every comment on this page but just by seeing one I am going to comment as well. Look at his credibility. I understand we can learn over time however knowing he has no credibility or known experience such as tests, experiments, recording, just a big mouth, we should not listen to him.
So much now-adays we have people that made crap up. I am going to continue taking DE food grade. DE can be as small as 3Micrometers all the way to 1millimeter. Absorption of DE in rats was seen to be dependent on size. And the size that they started to absorb was noted once reaching nano-meter size. Seeing that DE can be all the way around 3UM Micrometers and 1micrometer is nanometers, It is obvious that the rats absorbed a good amount of silica with no toxic effects.
And seeing that humans digestive organs are much more complex, we must be able to absorb a good amount of silica from ingesting DE. That being said, more research is needed to understand the full effects of silica that is safe. This is because the effects of more are not known. I took DE for 5 days and developed excruciating headache with nausea and my blood pressure shoot up tremendously.
Did anybody have a similar experience at all? Could be few issues, IF all DE related, most likely-not enough water, or too high dosage, Herxheimer response, or unrelated issues.. Yes it did cause rapid heart palpitations. Kept me up all night. In fact, I think if I had taken more, I would have been in real trouble.
In a couple weeks, it no longer caused the heart palpitations, even when I increased the amount to 1 tsp. For me it definitely was worth taking in the long run. I take this stuff seriously. I just thought mentioning it might lead you in the direction of some answers. The heart response can be intense. I wish you and your health the best. Gotta know your limits. The medical medium does not do any research. He gets his so called information from the spirit realm.
Hence, the term medium. Exactly right. And this is why I refuse to take one iota of advice from him. I swear, do not ever use diatomaceous earth in your house or anywere. It is literally impossible to remove, I tried everything to make it go away it just wont! Especially in clothes and materials of the sort. I am saying this because I feel my lungs have a hard time breathing and my eyes are red all the time. I perform much worse in sports and I feel tired.
This stuff is to be avoided at all cost please do not buy it and do not use it ever!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is not true. I have put DE heavily on bed, floor and carpet. It vacuums up easily. And gives energy. If you are tired, you are detoxing. We used the brown Feed Grade not the human-friendly Food Grade white stuff when one of our cats brought in fleas after playing with hedgehogs. We quickly had ourselves a veritable infestation.
I put DE down everywhere. Carpets, cushions, sofas, curtains, rugs, hard floors, glass table tops we were seeing the little buggers everywhere , and kept an open plastic pot of it next to the bed and next to the sofa. I DO know it completely eradicated the flea problem. We brushed the 3 cats with it a couple of times a week, also put it in their food and water. No fleas, no worms. No bother. Maybe the other poster mixed it with water or similar before putting it on their soft furnishings and carpets?
JI — it sounds more like hayfever than a reaction to DE! Have you seen a doctor to diagnose? Anthony Williams is not a doctor. And he even tells you on his website that everything is for entertainment purposes only. Also, he has no actual clinical evidence to back up any of the statements he has made. So why would you listen to him? I have been vegan for 32 years and I have seen all sorts of flim flam artists come and go. Anthony Williams is one such person. I would never take advice from him.
Especially considering that people have been consuming DE for decades. I want to use it for arthritis. No doctor had been able to help me with my problem. My reaction was huge with just that tiny bit heart palpitations, awake all night but I kept up with that daily in 16oz of water and increasing to 1 tsp. Despite my extreme reaction, and partly because of it, I had a feeling it was doing something I needed done.
And it was. My brain fog cleared and my energy increased. We all have different health situations. And the reason given is that DE can prevent nutrient and mineral absorbtion.
I theorize now that my body was dealing with thickened developed colonies of fungus protected with heavy metals. Nothing I tried before DE and I tried antifungals had the strength to do anything. All I know is DE gave me a piece of my life back and I only took it once a day, for a few weeks, around 6 years ago. Food grade DE is absolutely beneficial to ingest.
This is a perfect example of doing your own research and trials with things. Many millions of Americans are manipulated daily by reading or listening to others opinions instead of researching themselves. Politically, a person may hear 1 thing they like about a candidate and they are ready to vote but had they researched they may find dozens of things they dont agree with.
It promotes alkalinity warding off heartburn that leads to problems. Dont let a misguided article like this put you on a wrong path. Always research because there will always be persons like this one whom write to manipulate. My Dad always used to take Bicarbonate soda. He lived until 95 passed in , was on very little meds.
I take DE — only just started 3 days So far so good. Loose stools that is the only thing, but that feels so good, I was so bound up from taking calcium supplements as I am nearly I recently started taking a tbs of DE food grade for 4 days and I had the worst reaction. My kidneys shut down and I keep getting nauseous whenever I eat so I stopped it completely to figure out what I did wrong. Im 34 and have both candida and parasite issues which is why I started taking it.
My stomach was also making extremely loud noises and diarrhea. The only thing I can come up with is I started out taking too much not realizing how powerful DE is when consumed. Any advice would be appreciated. To the woman who posted this article, I want to say thank you. This article, although clearly controversial and triggering for some has allowed an open discussion on the topic given people a chance to share their experiences both good and bad.
When you say your kidneys shut down, how did you measure this? Did you have any bloodwork done that showed this? If your system is loaded with toxins, parasites, candida, etc. Dose increase intervals can be adjusted according to your response — lots of nasty reactions, stop for 3 days it takes the liver 3 days to detoxify anything that has caused a problem big enough to cause an adverse reaction , then re-start at half the dose you were on when you reacted badly. Pure, non-tap water is the best option I drink bottled spring water.
If you take DE, you will need to increase your water intake. DE is drying. You MUST counteract that by drinking more water. I hope you feel better soon, and I hope this has helped you see that DE was clearly working for you.
Sounds like you started by taking too much too soon rather than gradually increasing your intake. Also, sounds like you were not consuming enough water. I have read of other people who swear by DE who first had a similar experience as you but that was either because they went overboard in the beginning OR the die off of the parasites was causing an intense experience.
You should start with a teaspoon and work your way up with larger doses. You should also drink plenty of water. I tried to reach you Sarah to learn more about reversing cancer but the email address you gave did not go through. I read all the comments and not one person linked any article or study after declaring how much evidence was available. Where are the links? If you have the science in your corner, why has no one posted anything?
You have no business criticizing the author of this article if you have nothing better to offer than your opinion. Waiting on the links.
Not one death ever from this. What should have been explained is that there is Food Grade Safe for humans and animals and commercial grade Used to kill bugs and used in pool filters. I have been using diatomaceous-earth for over a year. I am using it daily instead of the vaccine. Many of my friends that I see regularly got Covid last year. I have not, so far so good. It could just be coincidental, but I doubt it. Axe recommends taking food grade DE internally!
The idea of the harm of inhaling it is nothing but a lie! For years!! I really enjoyed reading the information here. I just bought a bag of DE and will be starting my detox. I have no gall bladder and went through menopause. Seems like I am puffy also either loose stools or diarrhea. I sure pray this helps. I have gained 20 pounds since last year, have itchy black underarms, itchy feet.
I find it great as a detox. I take this on and off for about 2 weeks. Says on the packet you can have it in water or fruit juice first thing in the morning on an empty stomach and wait at least 30 mins before eating food. This sounds very similar to a drug I was put on for osteoporosis.
Alendronic Acid it is called. Several years later I find out out this drug can cause jaw bone death.
