I took diatomaceous earth for 5 years for parasites and had no ill effects. I was typically taking a heaped tablespoons twice a day with meals. You need to take it with a decent amount of water but other than that it's a nice gentle supplement and did not interfere with my kidneys. I do feel that there is a lot of scaremongering about natural supplements and that you can either choose to succumb to this fear or trust your inner guidance on what feels right for you. I have always done the latter!
It was becoming thin and would tear and bruise very easily. The first couple days of taking a teaspoon had my stomach feeling rough. But after a week that was completely gone. I think it was clearing out my colon. My bowel moment has been so much better. But the greatest thing is my skin no longer tears and the bruising is gone... I am amazed. My energy is alot better and also my sleep.... wish I would have been taking this years ago... I tell everyone I know what it has done for me.
