Replace GMOs, Fluoride, Allergies, Mercury and Chemicals With One Simple and Natural Ingredient!
Diatoms are rarely given any thought. These lowly single-celled creatures are typically found in mass quantity in large bodies of water. When they die, their remains settle to the bottom and become fossilized as time passes. In this process, they become one of mother nature’s most healthful, and beneficial substances, diatomaceous earth.
Diatomaceous earth (DE) has many purposes, including detoxifying the body (both inside and out), protecting pets and livestock from infestation, as well as keeping your yard pest free.
Using DE for Detox-DE can be added to your diet to detox parasites which contribute to food intolerance, nausea, bowel discomfort, pain, itching, asthma, sinus infections, Morgellon’s disease, along with various other reactions that can be quite unpleasant.
DE can also assist in lowering blood pressure as well as contribute the production of collagen improving skin tone, and strengthen tendons and joints.
If you would like to try using it orally you should start with a ½ teaspoon and work your way up to two heaping tablespoons. Mix with 4 ounces of water. Drink immediately, and follow with 8 additional ounces of water. Make sure that you drink plenty of water afterward though as DE can cause constipation.
As the pathogens, and parasites leave your system, you will feel abnormal discomfort and flu-like symptoms. This is normal in the beginning, and these symptoms will disappear within a few days.
