DE is totally organic and safe. It is taken from fresh water deposits and is
the purest form available.
Diatomaceous Earth is mother nature’s product with no harm to the
environment, pets or to people. Diatomaceous Earth is not actually an “earth”
but it is the fossilized remains of microscopic shells created by one celled
plants called DIATOMS.
As you will see, there are many uses for Diatomaceous
Earth, but to me the most exciting is
Human Use.
Read about the many
other things Diatomaceous Earth can be used for, and you will soon see why we
feel every house in the world should have a container of Diatomaceous Earth
within easy reach of all.
When Diatomaceous Earth is taken into the
body it is working 3 different ways:
1st: As you can see from the picture of Diatomaceous Earth – (magnified
7000 times) – it looks like a cylinder full of holes–kind of like Rice Chex
Cereal. This cylinder has a very strong negative charge. As these millions of
cylinders move through the stomach and digestive tract, they attract and absorb
bacteria, fungi, protozoa, viruses, endotoxins, pesticide and drug residues,
E-Coli, and heavy metals. These are trapped inside the cylinder and passed out
of the body. In addition, any larger parasites that happen to be in the stomach
of digestive tract are “cut up” and killed by the sharp edges of the
Diatomaceous Earth. All of these activities result in a much healthier body with
less sickness. We often hear the phrase “I just feel better” with our
Diatomaceous Earth users. This better feeling comes from all the “junk” being
removed from the body and by giving our immune system the “jump start” it needs.
2nd: Diatomaceous Earth is very hard. On the harness scale where diamonds
are a 9, Diatomaceous Earth is a 7. This is very important, because as those
millions of tiny hard and sharp Diatomaceous Earth cylinders pass through the
small and large intestines, they “scrub” the walls. After only a few months of
taking Diatomaceous Earth, the intestine wall is no longer coated with mucus and
molds but CLEAN!! The advantages of this are several:
Regular bowel movements (This is the #1 comment everyone makes about DE)
Healthier Colon. This is especially important as we get older. A clean healthy colon keeps
away polyps, cancers, and ulcers. Today, many are spending thousands of dollars
to get colonics to do the same thing as Diatomaceous Earth does.
Many users report increased energy and needing less sleep. This is a result of all
the food and nutrients that are taken in being better absorbed into the blood
stream. With a coated colon–many nutrients never get absorbed.
3rd: A small amount of Diatomaceous Earth
gets absorbed into the blood stream as silica. One of the benefits of Silica is
that it helps to destroy bad fats. Everyone that we know that is taking
Diatomaceous Earth has lowered their cholesterol by 40-50 points. Everyone is
also amazed at how their high blood pressure goes down. Go to the page on “Human
Use” and review all of the benefits of silica to the body.
Sore joints and ligaments feel better
Skin clears up (acne-age spots-psoriasis)
Hair and nails are stronger and grow faster
Stronger teeth and gums
Healthier respiratory tract–less coughing
Menopause has less symptoms
Healthier urinary tract
Coronary Artery Disease
The benefits of silica are many. In today’s grains, there is actually a shortage of silica.
Years ago, the silica found in our foodstuffs was adequate, but with today’s
hybrids and depleted soils, only about 1/3 of the silica needed is supplied in
our food.
Diatomaceous Earth is a simple and inexpensive way to get the silica
your body needs.
