Has anyone tried Diatomaceous Earth?

Robin,
Currently taking 2 heaping teaspoons in the am in oatmeal in the AM. My husband and I have talked and are in agreement that we are going to start giving it to the dog and our son as well. I can not tell you how much it has improved the lesions and the ones that I knew were not healing bc there was still stuff in there have continued to get smaller even as the infection works it's way out. I only have 1 left that has a pain and the infection is still com'n out, but it is healing and 75% better than it was a week ago! I still do not have any new ones.... Yippie!
XOXO,
Meg

I can not tell you what a blessing everyone has been on this site, THANK YOU! This past week has been great! I still wish I could just get these last 2 completely healed so I could start wearing real clothes again! Soon, I am hoping! XOXO

Just wanted to let you know that I showered with the DE yesterday instead of bathing in it as I usually do. I was fine all day yesterday still healing and itching levels were still low. I woke up this am and could not stop itching again. I could feel the crawling sensation everythere. I got up went into the bathroom thinking ok maybe I got into something that I hadn't touched in a couple weeks and the only thing I did was eat a salad from work no other foods outside my house other than bread from work 1 or 2x's a week, anyway I HAD ALL THE LITTLE MINI MOVING FIBERS ALL OVER ME AT LEAST A DOZEN THAT I COULD SEE. Now usually I could see 1 or two at a time and they would range in size not just small ones. I got into the tub and smothered my entire body in the DE. I look like I dumped a tub of baby powder all over me and then smothered my bed and floor in it. Its almost like my body is purging them all at once! Or if they breed a family hatched like spiders (sorry best way to describe it) so this could mean they multiple in large groups. The DE did ease most of the itching, I dont know if I just knocked them all of while rubbng it on me or if it is smothering them, maybe both. As soon as I finish my a.m. arrands I will be com'n home to take an DE bath.
My hope is that the DE is purging them from my body now that I have been on the internal DE for 9 days. The normal time frame for I Body Cleanser seems to be 2weeks to 6weeks starting with the lving parasites and moving to their eggs that havn't hatched the longer you are on the cleansers. So if there is an incubation time for eggs I could have just hit the first round of previously laid eggs that have hatched. So now I will wait to see if it regulates purging more over the next few days depending on how they breed (or reproduce). Sorry if this seems all wacky in termonology but I'm not sure how else to describe it.
Again no new lesions and still healing so this is the reason why I think my body is purging them, instead of letting them continue to thrive on me. The only thing that contradicts this is that they were moving still and not dead or limp. The only thing I can think of is that they are trying to get away from the DE in my system and work their way out of me before the DE can kill them in me. I will con't to update you today if I can.... Had to do this update quick so please forgive the spelling and other mistakes...
XOXO meg

Robin,
I just bleached my hair a couple days before I started bathing in the DE but I did feel something bigger when I was rinsing out my hair and the under part up tp my ears is shaved. (i have the beckam haircut and the top is a little longer, but I am having my husband check my scalp tomorrow night.) So I haven't seen anything since but I shampoo/con'd with the DE mixed into both. Then I use it before I put my hair porducts in and blow it out/style w/ products, then sprinckle/rub DE all over my hair again finish styling with brush. So since I have been doing this my head hasn't itched at all. I really think the filtered shower head is helping as much as the DE is too, I think they are in the water. I also rub the DE all over my body before applying my body lotion. I know this sounds so extreme but I noticed I am not constantly rubbing and itching at work, which is a bonus. I also don't wake up itching in the middle of the night.
I haven't noticed energy or anyother affects the DE is known for except going #2' but it is not even 2weeks yet so those may just be a bigger bonus later on.
My bf didn't take it internally right away either but she said she is now bc the relief isn't the same. I think it needs to work itself inside out and she was still getting the hard lumps even a couple days after bathing in it. I have not had anything new since the day before I started it internally. I know it seems hard to take but it really isn't, just mix in oatmeal every A.M. I am going to start taking it 2x's a day to see if it helps even more with out such a time gap, your body just spits the excess out.
Not to sound gross but important: My restroom time is a huge improvement I have the correct bowel movements and they are the proper shape, ect. not to get into to much detail. You will see I am sure. I just don't think anyone really stuck out the time it takes for your body to fight this off and recover. Ppl prob. skipped doses and/or didn't maintain a regulated schedule with the DE/water/food,ect. So that the Morg. didn't just reinvade their system.

Hey meg,
i did start taking it today.i put about a tablespoon in oatmeal your right it wasn't bad! did you say its supposed to give us energy.that would be a plus! really doubt your husband will see anything maybe some tiny white things that he will prob say is dandruff! it is very deep on our scalp and has settled in inconspicuosly.thats my deepest belief.

The liquid version of D.E. can be bought at Fresh Fields which has stores located throughout the United States. The company used to be called Bread and Circus and began operations in Boston, I think. They are a health Super Store. Since I've been on antibiotics, I miss it because it cleans everything out. I find it is very helpful to drink every other night in small amounts. It comes in an amber bottle and gets refrigerated. Great at getting rid of parasites in general.

How much are you taking daily and how many times a day? You're just mixing it into a drink?

I've got some here... I just don't know how much to take?

Oh, I see above where you're taking 2 tablespoons, once a day, in the morning in a drink? Is that correct?

How much would you give a pet? Or, would you just sprinkle it on their fur and rub it in?

Hi Kammy:
The Company name is Sonne's Organic Foods, Inc. The product is called Sonne's No. 7. It says "Detoxificant. An adsorbent aid in detoxification and intestinal purification via alimentary canal." The ingredients list mechanically active adsorbent, "Colloidal Bentonite U.S.P Grade containing the active constituent montmorillonite super-refined with demineralized water as vehicle".

It's drinking a form of liquid clay. It tasteless, but it goes down easily and is not unpleasant. It's available in one quart bottles and the directions suggest taking 1 tablespoon for an average adult, with 1 extra teaspoon for each 50 lb. of body weight. A shot glass is an easy way to take it. It's important to eat roughage with it for maximal effect. Drink at least one glass of water between meals to help eliminate acid and toxic waste through the kidneys.

Be near a bathroom until you know how your body will handle this. I really love the stuff. Very inexpensive too. I hope this helps!
