MoreAfter taking 1 tsp of Perma-Guard food grade DE for three consecutive days, I suffer lower back pain, increased blood pressure, fast pulse and increased body temperature.
I think it was due to DE entered into my blood stream via my leaky gut. I am concerned about the damage to my internal organs, especially the kidneys which are very delicate. I don’t think these were Herx reaction. According to Wise Traditions (a publication of The Weston A. Price Foundation: quote “… individuals suffering from perforations of the alimentary tract (such as bleeding ulcers, colitis, leaky gut syndrome, and advanced lupus) always should exercise caution and use diatomaceous earth only under the care of a doctor or other health practitioner.”
Should I do a kidney cleanse as well as Liver Flush to get rid of the DE even though I am so ill now? I would appreciate any advice.

I really do not think the DE had anything to do with this. The increased blood pressure and pulse could be from the pain. Lower back pain and fever could be from a kidney stone trying to pass.

If you search their name on this site you will find posts I did previously on them and their false propaganda. What they don't seem to realize is that DE is silica, which we also get from drinking mineral water and by eating plants. So do they also recommend avoiding mineral water and fibers in these cases?

It sounds still like a possible kidney stone. If the pain is in the kidney area as opposed to the lower spine then I would say even more likely. But you did not mention exactly where the pain is. If it is in the kidney ares then I recommend nettle leaf and magnesium malate, which both dissolve the most common forms of kidney stones.

This is a reply to # 1,660,803Yes, I agree silicon is essential to good health. But silicon in the form of DE is very sharp and that is why it kills parasites. Can it damage the kidney filters and cause pain as well? My pain is around the kidney areas. I also feel some pain when I pee. Yes, I have kidney stones before and not sure they are gone now (I drink magnesium citrate everyday, which is supposed to dissolve kidney stones.) I took Stone Free yesterday (a hebal formula for kidney stones and gallbalder stones)which could trigger the movement of kidney stones. But I have taken Stone Free many times before and never have any problem.
I also found in the internet today some people actually used DE to heal their leaky guts with some success.
Could it be just healing crisis as per the following website? But note this website is selling DE. http://freshwaterorganics.com/detox1.html
Quote “Since it appears to pass inertly through the digestive tract, releasing only a few trace minerals, decide for yourself what dose works well, bearing in mind that taking large amounts may have some very uncomfortable effects. "DEtox "-ing one's system too quickly might not allow enough time for one's metabolism to re-balance, creating discomfort known as a "healing crisis". This discomfort may be nothing more than inflammation caused by a reawakening immune system as it detoxifies and begins to attack previously unadressed chronic infections."
Thank you for link to Liver Cleanse, which I think will not help in this case.
BTW, I feel better now after stop taking DE yesterday, though I still have flu like symptoms.
Thanks
