Ok refresh my memory. I've filled a jug with D.E. so I can have a concentrated source of silica water.
It doesn't need refrigeration or does it?- Re: D.E. Water #91053

This is a reply to # 1,474,942Would a product work instead of DE or are there other benefits to DE that a product wouldn't contain? The product is Jarosil. Thanks.

This is a reply to # 1,475,035Interesting product, from what information I can gather about it, it would probably be a reasonable way to get silica. Although it is very expensive. DE is far cheaper, and has many other uses, in the garden, with pets and livestock, etc.
The product is patented so its not possible to get the formula, this means there is no way of knowing (unless you get inside information) as to whether this product could be harmfull or not. Basically you are relying on the manufacturers claims of its bioavailability and effectivness.

I have never seen Jarro-Sil before, but Bio-Sil is stabilized orthosilic acid. I found that if it sits for a year or so that it gels up. The DE reacts with water forming orthosilicic acid. Being that it stays in contact with the water orthosilicic acid remains all the time. So I see no real benefit to pay a lot more for a product like Bio-Sil when the DE and water do the same thing.

http://www.vitadigest.com/ja-biosil.html?gclid=CJ3e84_MrZwCFSYoawodR1iUjwProducts like Jaro-Sil and Bio-Sil will work as well, they are just a lot more expensive. If you do use these products I would still add it to a large container of water and drink it throughout the day.

This is a reply to # 1,474,942It is inorganic (does not decay). I leave mine out of the refrigerator for convenience. I'm on my 58th day of over 100 degree temp; so sometimes I put it in the refrigerator just to have a cold drink. However, I hate to keep opening the door. Ice cubes work.
You only need to make sure that your water is not contaminated by something organic; such as lemon juice or something you think will enhance it. Instead, add those to your glass of the DE water, if you really want to.- Re: D.E. Water GrannyCat

This is a reply to # 1,475,052That's why I made a separate large jug of the D.E. water. I was just letting the D.E. sit in the bottom of my big glass and then refilling the glass each day with more ice and water. However, I wanted to add a slice of real lemon to my glass and that would make the D.E. water glass go sour. This way I can make my lemon water and add some ice, water and silica water from the big jug every morning!

Silica is very poorly absorbed. If you take a big spoonful only a trace will absorb and the rest will just pass through your system. By adding to your water the water chemically reacts with the silica forming orthosilicic acid, which is what the body absorbs and utilizes. Each time you take a drink of the water you will absorb a small amount of the silica. This increases the overall absorption for the day.

If you filled the jug with D.E. did you leave any room for the water?

It does not really matter how much you add since the excess silica that is not dissolved will just settle to the bottom. When you add more water after drinking some the new water will dissolve a little more of the silica. I add a spoonful of silica to a gallon of water, a little over 4 liters, and that lasts years. Although I usually empty it out and start with a new spoonful of silica ever 6 months or so.

This is a reply to # 1,475,487Sorry, let me get this straight. You are saying it doesn't make a difference if you put a teaspoon or a tablespoon in a gallon? Surely the more you put in the more is dissolved which equals a larger quantity in the water. Either way this is so little compared to the recommended 1 tablespoon in a glass of water once or twice a day.
Also what happens if I drink a gallon of water a day, with the one teaspoon? Would I get less silica than if I had drunk the gallon over several days?

Correct.

Actually no. Silica is poorly soluble in water. So you will only dissolve a tiny amount of the silica in to the water. The rest will settle out. When you add some more water it will dissolve a litte more and the excess will settle out. It will not dissolve like sugar or salt.
Either way this is so little compared to the recommended 1 tablespoon in a glass of water once or twice a day.
Yes, but taking a tablespoon just means nearly all the silica will just be expelled rather than absorbed. Great for getting rid of intestinal parasites, but it will not put more silica in to your system.
Also what happens if I drink a gallon of water a day, with the one teaspoon? Would I get less silica than if I had drunk the gallon over several days?No, you will get more silica in your system the more frequently you drink the water. The water will only dissolve a trace of silica. And you can only absorb very small amounts of silica at a time. So drinking the water frequently allows you to absorb a small amout of silica each time you take a drink of the water with the DE dissolved in it.

This is a reply to # 1,475,525Hv I see you posted here taking the tablespoon at once is good for getting rid of intetinal parasites?
Will you please elaborate on this process/procedure to get rid of intestinal parasites.I think that might be the second best use of DE- Re: D.E. Water Hveragerthi

Will you please elaborate on this process/procedure to get rid of intestinal parasites.I think that might be the second best use of DEThis is an old remedy to deworm farm animals. The animals would be fed the diatomaceous earth. The DE is like tiny shards of glass. When insects crawl through it the DE scrapes their waxy coatings off causing them to dehydrate. If they ingest it the DE cuts up their insides. This is why it is used for bug control. For intestinal worms the DE is ingested where it cuts up the worms. Our intestinal walls are stronger and thicker, and protected by a thin fluid mucous so it does not harm our intestines.
The easiest way to take it would be to mix a big spoonful in some water or juice and down it. It will be a little gritty.

This is a reply to # 1,475,713The powder consists of sharp minute particles that literally shred the parasites. I used it as a facial scrub and the particles are so fine you don't feel any scratching or irritation, so it is not dangerous to ingest, but not so good for parasites.
I'm not sure how much to take though, as i just use the de powder in water.- Re: D.E. Water & parasites spudlydoo

This is a reply to # 1,475,719You can take just a spoonfull a day for about 3 days to get rid of parasites. Just mix it with water and drink it down. Its important to make sure you drink plenty of water while your doing this.
I also use it for getting rid of worms in dogs and horses. Its a good supplement for chickens it helps to harden and thick the egg shells, and is a great supplement for them when they are moulting.
I also dust my chickens and dogs with DE powder to kill fleas, flea eggs and mites.
DE is very usefull stuff.

This is a reply to # 1,475,719As a facial scrub? It works as a facial scrub? How very interesting. How do you do this? You know, what you mix it with, ratios, anything youd care to elaborate on. Yeppers, DE is amazing stuff but Ive never heard of this use before. Thanks much.

I just put a bit in a pot and added a bit of olive oil, as that was all i had to hand. I don't really know the ratio. The oil is just so you can spread it over face, so just enough to make a thickish consistency.
just experiment and use different oils.- Re: D.E. Water & parasites Charly

This is a reply to # 1,476,065A few drops of water with about i/2 tsp of DE works well too - let dry on the face (10 - 15 minutes) then rinse. Nice and smooth.

This is a reply to # 1,475,525What if you boil the silica (DE) in water? Would that help it dissolve into the water, so you can absorb more silica into your system?
