Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth
What is Diatomaceous Powder?
Diatomaceous earth is made from the fossilized remains of tiny, aquatic organisms called diatoms. Their skeletons are made of a natural substance called silica. Over a long period of time, diatoms accumulated in the sediment of rivers, streams, lakes, and oceans. Caltron’s Diatomaceous Earth (DE) powder Food Grade addresses a broad spectrum of harmful toxins entering the body including: Bacteria, Parasities, Fungi, Protozoa, Viruses (including poliovirus), Endotoxins, Pesticide and drug residues E-Coli, Heavy Metals (including methyl mercury), Proteinaceous toxins produced by some intestinal infections. Many harmful things entering the body have a positive charge. Silica is a semi-conductive mineral which when warmed by body heat becomes negatively charged and gives off electrons. These negatively charged mineral ions and/or individual shells attract bad microbes, free radicals, positively charged waste and other harmful things. Acting as magnets, the negatively charged shells and/or ions attract and absorb positive things that are small enough to go through the holes. Add a sugar molecule and you can trap toxins into the porous food-grade DE particle which is then excreted safely out of the body. Because of the strong charge, each shell can absorb a large number of positively charged substances, whether they be chemical or in the form of bacteria or viruses. They pass on through the stomach and intestine, taking these harmful substances out of the body.
