The Elder Herb Shoppe Diatomaceous Earth Capsules 350 Mg - 30, 60 or 120 Count

First a warning label: If you are going to use Diatomaceous Earth (DE) internally, you should really stay well hydrated. There's only so much silica that your body can absorb in a day, so taking too much is counterproductive as you can very well dehydrate yourself. It is safe for both people AND your pets. Which is where we're going to start:

PARASITES: As DE is made up of microscopic particles that consist of silica, it is ideal for use as an anti-parasitic. It is used to remove parasites from livestock and pets, and is also safe enough for people too. The tiny particles rake away at the exoskeleton of parasites, leeching away their moisture until they wither up and are expelled from the body naturally. As a powder, it can be used externally to remove such pests as fleas, ticks, lice, crabs, bedbugs and other nasty external parasites.*

DETOXIFIES: From the extended research Amy and I have done on DE lately, it is easily one of the best detox products on the market today, without all the unfortunate side-effects (diarrhea, gas) of a detox programs. As a matter of fact, we are making DE capsules this weekend and are going to start a detox program ourselves to see how it works.*

From the information we have gathered, DE removes such toxins such as heavy metals, chemicals, pesticides, various forms of viruses and bacteria and is a gentle cleanser of the lower digestive tracts. Some recent studies have shown that it is highly effective with people that have conditions like Leaky Gut Syndrome, Colitis and Crohn's Disease because it helps to remove the irritating factors and tone and heal up the digestive tract. And speaking of toning and healing, on to the next benefit...*

JOINT - CONNECTIVE TISSUE - VEINS/ARTERIES

DE is made up of 85% silica and silica plays a vital role in our bodies. When silica is absorbed into the body it helps to make stronger tendons, cartilage, blood vessels, and bones. Potentially even helping to reverse the effects of osteoporosis. It helps to tone blood vessels and joints by strengthening and tightening the bonds of all the connecting tissue. And speaking of blood vessels, this leads right in to my next topic:*

HELPS LOWER CHOLESTEROL

Because all of those hundreds of billions of DE particles are flowing through our bodies after we have ingested our daily dose, it gets into the blood stream where it kind of acts like a scrub brush for the veins. It scrapes away and latches on to all of those fatty particles that have accumulated in the bloodstream and takes them right out of the body to be expelled, instead of stockpiled.

There's many more health benefits of DE, and this is where you take over and find out whether DE is right for you and your family. Don't be afraid to look at the pros AND the cons when making your decision. Feel free to start a conversation here, or message us direct.
