This ain't spam, and I'm not selling anything at all. I'm not really even recommending diatomaceous earth, either. I know nothing of brands. All I know is that if one takes it internally, it must be food grade.

I've read a bit over the years about folks using food grade diatomaceous earth for insect control in home and garden. Read also that you can feed to dogs and yourself for intestinal parasite control. Read that it helps arthritis, and other things. As for the human stuff it helps, I figured it was just a bunch of internet dodo birds who were experiencing placebo effect, or were more likely just lying. Like, they either believed in the product and wanted others to try it but had no ailments of their own to experiment on, or they were simply trying to sell their own product by masquerading as a satisfied customer.

I am a bit overweight, and I sleep on the floor. The sleeping on the floor bit has lasted for a year, and won't change for another 4 months, for various reasons. Past experience has shown me that a couple of days of sleeping on a proper mattress on a proper bed will cause me to start having the very same pain as I do now, so it hardly matters. Have been living with morning back for 10 years.

Anyways, whenever I wake up in the morning, my back will hurt terribly. The sensation feels like if I try raising up by bending at the waist, my spine will crack. The sensation is deceptive, I know, but that is what it feels like, nonetheless. I always have to very gingerly roll over onto my side, and gradually raise my self off the floor. Even after my gentle doctor-recommended exercises, it will be a good hour before the pain recedes well enough for me to do household chores.

Well, on a whim the other morning, I decided to start taking some of the food grade diatomaceous earth I bought for pest control. I started taking it to rid myself of any possible intestinal parasites, NOT to get rid of back pain. As I said, I figured all the claims of pain relief were bunk. I even figured the parasite thing was dodgy, but worth a try. Well, I mixed a tablespoon of it with hersheys unsweetened cocoa powder, xylitol, water, and some coconut oil in the blender. The drink mixture was pleasing, and I had one more that night.

When I woke up the very next day, the pain I was used to having in my back was almost non-existent. This was a totally unexpected thing. I tried, and found that I could get myself out of bed like a regular person. The only thing that resembled pain that was in my back was muscle stiffness, and I suppose everyone has that.

I smiled all day.

Made more drink mix yesterday, taking a total of two tablespoons of diatomaceous earth. Woke up just a while ago to the same thing: no real back pain. Just some normal muscle stiffness. I could have LEPT out of the bed, if I weren't a good 40 lbs. overweight. (I'm a chick, so 40 lbs is a lot.) This is only the second day.

I suppose I will keep taking it for 30 days or so. This may not be wise, because it has aluminum in it. But, the silica is supposed to bind to the aluminum and take it out of your system, or something like that. I expect global catastrophe within the next 20 years or so anyways, so what the hell. I just hope this new development isn't just a flash in the pan.


I just had to share. Thanks, guys. :-)
