Remarkable Diatomaceous
Earth health benefits through Silica
As previously noted, like most wonderful
natural products, this product requires
an FDA Disclaimer: "This information is not intended
to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
Discussion of Diatomaceous Earth health benefits
is based solely on personal experience and testimony
shared by individual DE users and this company cannot market
or label DE as a human health supplement with
specific medical claims." Having said that, we
look at what consumers say about DE and at evidence
of DE's important cleansing properties and value
as a rich source of Silica.
Diatomaceous Earth (DE)
has been reported to absorb methyl mercury, E. coli,
endotoxins, viruses (including poliovirus), organophosphate
pesticide residues, and drug residues. DE is a
natural organic colon cleanser and detoxifier. This
cleansing and detoxification alone has a myriad
of positive effects in the human body. Mechanisms
are cited on "How DE Works" page. Adding to this
is the widespread deficiency in human dietary sources
of what is called "the most important trace element
in human health" - Silica, and how rich DE is in
this substance, we begin to understand the basis
of the health benefits that so many have attested
to. Only a trace amount of the DE silica is absorbed
into the blood stream, and just that amount is a
substantial gain for the user.
A growing number of people
count beneficial human side effects of Diatomaceous Earth and
SILICA as being nothing short of vital to their
well being and exhibit genuine devotion toward
its use. The only cautionary side effect that we
have found relating to Food Grade DE has to do with
direct inhalation and is essentially the same caution
that is advised when handling baby powder. DE is
a very fine powder.
Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth is 89% Silica.
It was established in the 1940s
that life can't exist without Silica. More recently,
in her book "Water & Salt" Dr. Barbara Hendel
states: "Silica is the most important trace
element in human health." Silica plays
an important role in many bodily functions and has
a direct relationship to mineral absorption.
The average human body holds approximately
seven grams of silica, needing significantly more
silica than even important minerals such as iron.
Most people are, in fact, silica deficient. Among other
things, enough silica in the body is vital enough
for calcium absorbtion to allow calcium supplements to
work. If Silica deficient, as is the case in the
vast majority of us, calcium supplementation can
even be a negative. Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth is
an excellent natural and organic source of silica.
Other Reported Health Benefits of Silica

Here's what consumers have to say about Diatomaceous
Earth:
Lower High Blood Pressure
Of the thousands of people that are using Diatomaceous
Earth, most that have high blood pressure have
reported that it has gone down. It has been so thrilling
to talk to people all over the United States and
have them tell their stories. We are not just talking
a few points - we are talking about LIFE-CHANGING
numbers. Doctors are amazed--customers are amazed.
You will be, too.
Lower High
Cholesterol
According to consumers, just as Diatomaceous
Earth health benefits include lowering blood pressure,
it has also been lowering cholesterol! I have
not talked with one person that has high cholesterol
that has not had lower numbers after taking Diatomaceous
Earth. Most are reporting 40-60 points lower after
only 2 weeks on DE. I know it sounds too good
to be true, but it works!
Just received
this feedback from a user..
"I have been on DE for 6 months now and I just had
my lab work done. My triglycerides have been reduced
from 495 down to 203. I have so much more energy
and my hair and nails are growing so much better.
My husband has had high blood pressure and since
being on the dirt, his BP is now in the normal range.
It has also helped with my varicose veins and I
no longer have any pain from them.."

Osteoporosis, Joints &
Calcium
Osteoporosis is a symptom of the aging
process. As calcium in our body system depletes,
our bones become brittle and weak. Taking only a
calcium supplement cannot correct or stop this threatening
and crippling disease because the body cannot assimilate
and make use of the calcium without the presence
of silica. Evidence suggests that, instead of affecting
healing, supplemental mineral calcium, on the contrary,
accelerates the leaching away of bone calcium and
thus hastens the degenerative process of osteoporosis
and similar diseases that affect the supportive
and connective tissues in the human body. The Silica
found in Diatomaceous Earth enhances calcium absorbtion.
For Osteoporosis
Silica can stop the pain and even restore the body's
self repair process. Osteoporosis symptoms attack
women primarily after menopause but the degenerative
process starts much earlier in their younger days.
More women are dying of fractures caused by osteoporosis
than of cancer of the breast, cervix, and uterus
combined. Silica is responsible
for the depositing of minerals into the bones, especially
calcium. It speeds up the healing of fractures and
also reduces scarring at the site of a fracture.
More and more research evidence shows that through
a transmutation process, silica is turned into calcium
when it is needed. That is why some scientists refer
to silica as a precursor of calcium. Even when calcium
is insufficient, the body can turn silica into calcium
that the bones need.
Natural Weight
Loss
We have been getting hundreds of reports
from all over the United States that DE is helping
people lose weight. Everyone is saying that DE
taken in the morning helps curb their appetite throughout
the day. Just one more reason to take it everyday!
Detox Your Body
Diatomaceous Earth health benefits reported
to inlude detox! According to Kaayla T. Daniel,
PhD, CCN and Galen D. Knight, PhD in their article
"Mad as a Hatter" there is no better product to
detox HEAVY METALS and RADIATION
from your body than with Food Grade Diatomaceous
Earth!
Nature's Internal Cosmetic
In Europe and Asia, Diatomaceous Earth
health benefits are widely recognized to include
use as a health and beauty product for hair, skin,
nails, bones, and joints. They have no FDA.
Tissue Degeneration
Accelerates due to aging when connective tissue
develops an increasing inability to retain moisture
when left unassisted. Silica can help slow the degenerative
process of connective tissue. With silica, vitality
and life, which are often lost as the years accumulate,
can be naturally maintained or even restored to
your skin. Collagen, largely made up of silica,
is the glue that holds us together. If our body
has enough silica glucosaminoglycane, the collagen
will make us look younger. Silica helps with skin
problems and injuries including itching, rashes,
abscesses, boils, acne, callouses, warts, eczemas,
burns, frostbite, benign skin sores, insect bites
and bed sores. If you regularly follow
a silica regimen, your skin will keep its youthful
look. A good silica supplementation program
works far better than other products for maintaining
healthier and longer lasting collagen.
Hair That Grows
Hair is nature's greatest beauty enhancer.
Hair deserves to be pampered. Hair at 90 micrograms
per gram is almost as rich in silica as are healthy
bones, which contain 100 micrograms per gram. Silica
is a major component of hair. Using a good silica
supplement should be part of your ongoing hair care
program for revitalizing hair. Silica helps to prevent
baldness, stimulates healthier hair growth and assures
beautiful shine, luster and strength.
Teeth and Gums
By hardening the enamel, silica prevents cavities
and preserves teeth. Silica also prevents bleeding
gums, gum atrophy, and recession that causes the
loosening of teeth, which could ultimately lead
to tooth loss. Silica effectively fights ulceration
and the decay of bones and teeth and also lessens
inflammation.
Tough As
Nails
Your nail plates are complex protein structures
that grow four to five millimeters per month on
average. With silica supplementation, fragile nails
become normal within a short period of time. Silica
will beautify the appearance of your nails and improve
their hardness, making them shinier and less prone
to breaking.
Restorative
Effects Of Silica
This will be most noticeable on your hair, skin,
nails and teeth. Our skin and hair require silica
essentially for the same purpose as do other tissues.
As we know, the supporting collagen underneath the
skin enhances elasticity and beauty. Collagen owes
that quality to silica, which provides a beautiful
complexion that is more than skin deep.
Pubic Lice (Crabs) and Hair Lice
Dust Diatomaceous Earth on all areas of
the body that are infested with the Lice (Crabs).
Also dust your bedding and rooms you have been in.
More Reported Benefits Of Diatomaceous Earth:
- Silica lowers bad cholesterol
and raises good
- Silica fades age spots
- Silica stimulates metabolism for
higher energy levels
- Diatomaceous Earth has a negative
charge and bacteria has a positive charge. It
is believed that Diatomaceous Earth sweeps bacteria
out of the body by trapping it in its honeycomb
shaped skeletal form.
- Silica supplementation helps repair
and maintain vital lung tissue and protects them
from pollution. By maintaining or restoring the
elasticity of lung tissue, silica reduces inflammation
in bronchitis.
- It acts as a cough decreasing
agent. Silica tones the upper respiratory tract
(nose, pharynx, larynx) and reduces swelling because
of its positive action on the lymphatic system.
- Silica supplementation keeps menopause
free of stress and helps to prevent many unwanted
side effects of menopause
- Silica works with other antioxidants
to prevent premature aging and to preserve youthfulness.
- Silica can help prevent kidney
stones and heal infections of the urinary tract.
It is a natural diuretic which can increase excretion
of urine by 30 percent, thus flushing the water-excreting
system and restoring normal function to these
vital organs.
- The presence of sufficient silica
in the intestines will reduce inflammation of
the intestinal tract. It can cause disinfection
in the case of stomach and intestinal mucus and
ulcers. Silica can prevent or clear up diarrhea
and its opposite, constipation.
- Silica will help normalize hemorrhoidal
tissues.
- In regulating and normalizing
the bowels, silica has a pleasant side effect;
it can alleviate lower back pain, which often
troubles the elderly.
- Silica proves effective with female
discharge, abscesses and ulcers in the genital
area and cervix, as well as mastitis (especially
for breast feeding mothers).
- The intake of silica acts as a
supportive treatment for inflammation of the middle
ear. Because of the beneficial effectiveness on
the lymphatic system, silica can be used for swelling
of the lymph nodes in the throat.
- Has anti-inflammatory disinfecting,
absorbing and odor binding effects.
- Silica can normalize circulation
and regulate high blood pressure (hypertension).
- Silica can decrease vertigo, headache,
tinnitus (buzzing of the ears) and insomnia.
- Silica can help diabetes by promoting
synthesis of elastase inhibitor by the pancreas.
- Silica can help arterial disease
by strengthening the blood vessels. Studies confirm
that with age, silica disappears from the aorta,
the heart's key blood vessel, thus weakening its
critical connective tissue and resulting in a
greater cardiac risk.
- Silica can help prevent Tuberculosis.
- By improving the elasticity of
the joints, silica helps rheumatism.
- Silica has inhibitory effects
on coronary diseases.
- Silica can help avoiding or alleviating
Alzheimer's disease by preventing the body from
absorbing aluminum and may flush out aluminum
from the tissues. Silica can stimulate the immune
system.
USAGE:
Most who use Diatomaceous Earth mixed
with a juice or liquid say that they use one to
two tablespoons daily.
