Re: Toxic Heavy Metals in Food Grade DE?

Hi, Hveragerthi

Thank you very much for your reply.

If I may, I have follow up questions:

First, if I understand your post correctly (yr previous post to Surely), I'd better take a spoonful at one time to kill parasites? How do you compare FPP with other parasite remedies (Humaworms, Clarkia ...)in terms of its efficacy?

Second, I see silicone dioxide as excipient in many pills and I've been avoiding those, thinking silicone dioxide is like sand. But I guess I don't have to worry too much, because stomach acid will convert as much as possible and the left over will be peed out of the body? Am I right?

Third, where do you order your "pure" FPP from? All food grade DEs I found are NOT "pure silica" but contains:

Lead 50.0005 ppm
Aluminum 11000.1100ppm
Nickel 2.330.000233ppm
Cadmium 10.0001ppm
Mercury 20.0002ppm

(Maybe I don't understand these figures correctly - I just want to make sure.)


Thank you so very much in advance and really want to try this.

Sincerely, Aurora

PS. I just started reading all yr old posts on various subjects and I already learned a lot!
