Diatomaceous Earth -
6 oz, (Health Herbs)
Safe and nontoxic, Diatomaceous Earth (DE) destroys intestinal parasites physically by injuring them. The shell particles of the DE are sharp enough to cut the parasites but are not harmful to humans and animals. DE is a natural and safe way to kill parasites without chemicals.
What is Diatomaceous Earth?
This is a question that constantly comes up on my radio show. Home & Garden Radio With Michael Crose on Business Talk Radio Network. It all started about 15 years ago when someone called my show and asked about the use of diatomaceous earth (or D.E.) as a natural pesticide. I had heard of D.E. as something we used in our swimming pool filter, but I had no idea what it was made of or what it's uses were. This was soon to change.
It did not take long for people from all over the world were sending me information about this wonderful mineral. Diatomaceous Earth in it's natural state is s soft rock like material consisting of the fossilized remains of little dead microscopic single celled plants of fresh and salt water called diatoms. They look like snowflakes in stone. Billions and billions of these delicate, lacy shells form whole mountains of this lightweight, white to golden colored mineral we now call Diatomaceous Earth. The D.E. that is in use today has been fossilized and preserved for millions of years.
Diatoms live in salt and fresh water, although the D.E. that is used by many organic gardeners for controlling pests and soil conditioning is the fresh water lake bed mined material. It is a golden or tan color.
D.E.'s Many Uses
Diatomaceous Earth is used for many things in many parts of the world. In the west near many of the salt bases D.E. mines it is used in the manufacture of concrete. This salt bases product is also used for the filtering product that many of us use in swimming pools. Before it is sold to the consumer it is crushed then heated to very high temperatures. This make the product very fine and fluffy. It is ideal in this state for filtering water and many other liquids. In it's natural state the fresh water lake bed mined Diatomaceous Earth has many uses that organic gardeners and others who are more inclined to use natural products enjoy. Soil conditioning is one use that is popular as well as using D.E. as a natural form of pest control. In both of these uses the preferred product has been crushed into a fine powder but NOT heated. It is hard to find Diatomaceous Earth in this form but it is worth it as it's effectiveness can not be beat.
Diatomaceous Earth As A Soil Conditioner
Diatomaceous Earth is very effective in breaking up hard pan. conditioning heavy clay soils and amending over-worked land.
In addition D.E. absorbs up to three times it's weight in water. This alone will conserve and better utilize irrigation and require less water.
SUGGESTED USAGE
Take 1 tablespoon daily in juice, water, or tea.
WARNING: Do not inhale product. Dust may cause eye and respiratory irritation. Keep out of reach of children.

Diatomaceous Earth -
6 oz, (Health Herbs)
Diatomaceous Earth is a fossilized deposit of microscopic shells created by one-celled plants called Diatoms. These plants inhabit all the waters of the earth, and serve as the basic food for aquatic life, just as grass is the basic food for land animals. Our Diatomaceous Earth has been designated as food-grade and comes from fresh water sources. Also contains trace minerals.
