Diatomaceous Earth - Human Use
Diatomaceous Earth is 84% Silicon Dioxide (Silica)
There is no life without Silica !!
In 1939, the Nobel Prize winner for chemistry, Professor Adolf
Butenant, proved that life can not exist without Silica.
In the 2003 book "Water & Salt" Dr. Barbara Hendel states: "Silica
it the most important trace mineral for human health!"
Silica plays an important role in many body functions and has a direct
relationship to mineral absorption. The average human body holds
approximately seven grams of silica, a quantity far exceeding the
figures for other important minerals such as iron.
Lets look at some of the benefits of Silica:*
Lower High Blood Pressure!
Of the thousands of people that are using Diatomaceous Earth, everyone
that has high blood pressure has reported that it has gone down.
It has been so thrilling to talk to people all over the United States
and have them tell their stories. I am not just talking a few
points---I am talking about LIFE-CHANGING numbers. Doctors are
amazed--customers are amazed---You will be too.
Lower high Cholesterol!
Just as Diatomaceous Earth has been lowering blood pressure--it has
also been lowering cholesterol!!. I have not talked with one
person that has high cholesterol that has not had lower numbers after
taking Diatomaceous Earth. Most are reporting 40-60 points lower
after only 2 weeks on DE. I know it sounds too good to be true,
but it works!
My joints feel so much better!!
Osteoporosis is a symptom of the aging process. As calcium in our body
system depletes, our bones become brittle and weak. Taking only a
calcium supplement can not correct or stop this threatening and
crippling disease because the body cannot assimilate and make use of
the calcium without the presence of silica. Evidence suggests that,
instead of affecting healing, supplemental mineral calcium, on the
contrary, accelerates the leaching away of bone calcium and thus
hastens the degenerative process of osteoporosis and similar diseases
that affect the supportive and connective tissues in the human body.
For osteoporosis, silica can stop the pain and even restore the bodies
self repair process. Osteoporosis symptoms attack women primarily after
menopause but the degenerative process starts much earlier in their
younger days. More women are dying of fractures caused by osteoporosis
than of cancer of the breast, cervix, and uterus combined.
Silica is responsible for the depositing of minerals into the bones,
especially calcium. It speeds up the healing of fractures and also
reduces scarring at the site of a fracture. More and more research
evidence shows that through a transmutation process, silica is turned
into calcium when it is needed. That is why some scientists refer to
silica as a precursor of calcium. Even when calcium is insufficient,
the body can turn silica into calcium that the bones need.
Nature's Internal Cosmetic!
In Europe and Asia Diatomaceous Earth is used extensively as a health
and beauty product for hair, skin, nails, bones, and joints. They have
no FDA.
Tissue degeneration accelerates due to aging when connective tissue
develops an increasing inability to retain moisture when left
unassisted. Silica can help slow the degenerative process of connective
tissue. With silica, vitality and life, which are often lost as the
years accumulate, can be naturally maintained or even restored to your
skin. Collagen, largely made up of silica, is the glue that holds us
together. If our body has enough silica glucosaminoglycane, the
collagen will make us look younger. Silica helps with skin problems and
injuries including itching, rashes, abscesses, boils, acne, callouses,
warts, eczemas, burns, frostbite, benign skin sores, insect bites and
bed sores.
If you regularly follow a silica regimen, your skin will keep its young
look. A good silica supplementation program works far better than other
products for maintaining healthier and longer lasting collagen.
Hair That Grows!
Hair is natures greatest beauty enhancer. Hair deserves to be pampered.
Hair at 90 micrograms per gram is almost as rich in silica as are
healthy bones, which contain 100 micrograms per gram. Silica is a major
component of hair. Using a good silica supplement should be part of
your ongoing hair care program for revitalizing hair. Silica helps to
prevent baldness, stimulates healthier hair growth and assures
beautiful shine, luster and strength.
Teeth and Gums!
By hardening the enamel, silica prevents cavities and preserves teeth.
Silica also prevents bleeding gums, gum atrophy, and recession that
causes the loosening of teeth, which could ultimately lead to tooth
loss. Silica effectively fights ulceration and the decay of bones,teeth
and also lessens inflammation.
Tough As Nails!
Your nail plates are complex protein structures that grow four to five
millimeters per month on average. With silica supplementation, fragile
nails become normal within a short period of time. Silica will beautify
the appearance of your nails and improve their hardness, making them
shinier and less prone to breaking.
The restorative effects of silica will be most noticeable on your hair,
skin, nails and teeth. Our skin and hair require silica essentially for
the same purpose as do other tissues. As we know, the supporting
collagen underneath the skin enhances elasticity and beauty. Collagen
owes that quality to silica, which provides a beautiful complexion that
is more than skin deep.
More Benefits!
Silica lowers bad cholesterol and raises good
Silica fades age spots
Silica stimulates metabolism for higher energy levels
Diatomaceous earth has a negative charge and bacteria has a positive
charge. It is believed that diatomaceous earth sweeps bacteria out of
the body by trapping it in it's honeycomb shaped skeletal form.
Silica supplementation helps repair and maintain vital lung tissues and
protects them from pollution. By maintaining or restoring the
elasticity of lung tissues, silica reduces inflammation in bronchitis.
It acts as a cough decreasing agent. Silica tones the upper respiratory
tract (nose, pharynx, larynx) and reduces swelling because of its
positive action on the lymphatic system.
Silica supplementation keeps menopause free of stress and helps to
prevent many unwanted side-effects of menopause
Cancer can not survive in cells that have the correct levels of Silica.
Silica works with other antioxidants to prevent premature aging and to
preserve youthfulness.
Silica can help prevent kidney stones and heal infections of the
urinary tract. It is a natural diuretic which can increase excretion of
urine by 30 percent, thus flushing the water-excreting system and
restoring normal function to these vital organs.
The presence of sufficient silica in the intestines will reduce
inflammation of the intestinal tract. It can cause disinfection in the
case of stomach and intestinal mucus and ulcers. Silica can prevent or
clear up diarrhea and its opposite, constipation.
Silica will help normalize hemorrhoidal tissues.
In regulating and normalizing the bowels, silica has a pleasant side
effect; it can alleviate lower back pain, which often troubles the
elderly.
Silica proves effective with female discharge, abscesses and ulcers in
the genital area and cervix, as well as mastitis (especially for breast
feeding mothers).
The intake of silica acts as a supportive treatment for inflammation of
the middle ear. Because of the beneficial effectiveness on the
lymphatic system, silica can be used for swelling of the lymph nodes in
the throat.
Has anti-inflammatory disinfecting, absorbing and odor binding effects.
Silica can normalize circulation and regulate high blood pressure
(hypertension).
Silica can decrease vertigo, headache, tinnitus (buzzing of the ears)
and insomnia.
Silica can help diabetes by promoting synthesis of elastase inhibitor
by the pancreas.
Silica can help arterial disease by strengthening the blood vessels.
Studies confirm that with age, silica disappears from the aorta, the
heart's key blood vessel thus weakening its critical connective tissue
and resulting in a greater cardiac risk.
Silica can help prevent Tuberculosis.
By improving the elasticity of the joints, silica helps rheumatism.
Silica has inhibitory effects on coronary diseases.
Silica can help in avoiding or alleviating Alzheimers disease by
preventing the body from absorbing aluminum and may flush out aluminum
from the tissues. Silica can stimulate the immune system.
Dosage:
Daily silica needs of humans are 20-30 mg. In Years past, our bodies
would get enough silica from our diet. Unfortunately, many of the foods
we now eat have lost their nutritional value due to soil nutrient
depletion, food processing, and chemicals. Supplemental use of
Perma-Guard Diatomaceous Earth is essential to total body health.
In my studies and searches of the internet, people are taking 1 or 2
heaping tablespoons of Diatomaceous Earth every day. Myself and my
family take 1 heaping tablespoon per day. We mix it with
grapefruit juice. Others are mixing it with water, soda pop, juice, or
whatever liquid they enjoy. Some are even putting DE in protein shakes,
applesauce and yogurt. Perma-Guard Diatomaceous Earth is Food Grade and
very pure. There is no unpleasant taste. Since it will not dissolve,
stirring several times while drinking will prevent settling. Some have
experienced higher energy levels, so it is probably better not to take
it right before sleeping. No worry about getting too much--any excess
silica not needed by the body is automatically eliminated through the
blood stream, kidneys and intestines.

For over 35 years, pure food
grade diatomaceous earth has been fed to chickens and other birds to
help keep their feed from clumping, control parasites, and improve
overall well being.
