Re: Diatomaceous earth / kidney question

I wrote the above a long time ago, I too have taken a bunch now (47 straight days at a high amount). If you have taken it for a year, everyday? How much per day? etc...

I took 1 rounded tablespoon with some water 30 min before meals or anytime I ate anything for that matter. I feel like this was excessive. My intestines got alot of irritation and inflammation as evidenced by mucous in stool. However, I don't know whether to blame the DE or a dairy allergy, or possibly candida?

I am just very curious is you've had any problems at all, or are you taking breaks from it occasionally ?

I did like the stuff. Since I took all that DE I began to eat about 1/2 the total amount of food that I used to require and that's NO joke. Just afraid of the new mucous developement, which btw has not stopped and it's been about June 1st when I stopped DE and started going after candida.

Tough to tell I guess what's going on. I do have the right stuff, it's permagaurd chemical codex food grade. A fine white powder.
