A natural silica-rich detoxifying agent, Diatomaceous Earth kills parasites and viruses that contribute to illnesses while also helping to clean the blood and build healthy bones. Silica also helps eliminate heavy metals such as aluminium from the body, making it perfect for a deep detox.
Diatomaceous Earth is a naturally occurring siliceous sedimentary mineral compound, made from microscopic fossilised remains of algae-like plants called Diatoms.
Diatoms occur in virtually every environment that contains water. This includes not only oceans, seas, lakes and streams, but also soil. It is believed that 30 million years ago the diatoms built up into deep, chalky deposits of diatomite. The diatoms are mined and ground up to render a powder that looks and feels like talcum powder to us. This powder can have an abrasive feel, similar to pumice powder, and is very light as a result of its high porosity.
There are many benefits of silica. 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. DE is a simple and inexpensive way to get the silica your body needs.
