Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth is a STAPLE for my personal dogs AND rescue dogs.
Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth (FGDE) is silica and minerals.
You only increase your amount of silica in the bloodstream and body with food and kill parasites because hydrochloric acid (in the stomach) can break down bone and teeth. This breaks down silica and when the parasites come to dinner they get swift death.
Plus, we feed it to our animals in food and they prosper while all the parasites are destroyed.
You only absorb approximately 2% of the silica. So that leaves the vast majority still in the digestive system.
If you take FGDE alone you will absorb some silica but the body is designed to get more nutrition from going through stomach acid to get the most out of everything.
This acid breaks it all down to a much more absorbable state. Normally we would get the silica in food and water but all farm soil is devoid of minerals now and water is treated.
