Re: Diatomacious Earth ( DE ) thread :)
I've been taking 4 Tbsp of DE per day for um, 2 weeks now I think? I haven't noticed any changes of any kind, except maybe my nighttime teeth-grinding has been cured Hard to know about that, since I'm asleep when it happens
Wanted to chime in on the gas/bloating thing: The first time I took DE (a year ago) I had a cold/flu when I started taking DE. Got the painful intestinal gas thing. This happened two consecutive days about an hour after taking my DE. I stopped taking it until the illness was completely passed. Started taking DE again and never had any problems with it This time when I started taking DE I didn't have any gastro-intestinal symptoms either. Haven't seen anything suspicious in the potty, for myself or with the kids (the hubby hasn't reported anything either) But since 90% of parasite species are not visible to the naked eye, that doesn't bother me. Another mama here (different DE thread though) said her dogs used to get whipworm infections on a cyclical basis every few months, with very obvious symptoms in their stools (diarrhea). She would medicate them and it would go away only to return later. But since she's been giving them 1-2 Tbsp DE on their food every day, they haven't come down with any whipworm infestations. So I'm feeling pretty confident that DE is effective against parasites, although it's possible there could be some species that are impervious to it. I do wonder about liver flukes and such - ones that take up residence in an organ rather than migrating through the digestive tract where the DE is.

Re: Diatomacious Earth ( DE ) thread :)
hee-hee
eta: i was thinking about the bloating: yeast can fight when its being removed,lol, for lack of a better word, some people refer to them as nests. bloating along with constipation is a sure sign. sometimes if you take something to get things moving right when you notice it happening, you will see the yeast come out in the stools.

Ok I can't help myself, I have to ask... how would you *see* yeast?! It's a microscopic organism, isn't it?

Re: Diatomacious Earth ( DE ) thread :)
it causes there to be a sort of white colored fluff that coats. very distinct. just like the distinct diaper odor of yeast there is an appearance as well.

Re: Diatomacious Earth ( DE ) thread :)
Ok that makes sense. Although it could also just be intestinal mucus, couldn't it?

for me, lol, get it, me, lol...anyway, i found that most of the probiotics we tried made things worse for us. there could be a million reasons that i can now see in hindsight but not one that i could say for a fact. i also tried the garlic route and it also use to make things worse for us. it would even give my oldest hives on her mouth if i successfully snuch it into their food. but now that we are better we eat fresh garlic all the time and in everything. maybe theres something about it that does more harm than good when something in particular is compromised in the body??? who knows. but thank God, He has given us more than one thing to do the same work as garlic. That's what i love most about a large group of women talking natural health. there will always be a ton of suggestions and there is bound to be one that will work. or someone who can tell you why one isnt working |
