I've been taking Diatomaceous Earth (DE)
For over a year now and I won't stop! I have never felt better (57) in many years. My blood work is great, lower cholesterol, lower blood pressure, better bowel movements and Arthritis in knee and shoulder are gone plus I lost 16 lbs! Maybe you people are taking different DE than I am. I always get it from http://www.DEfoodgrade.com
and I know they only sell food grade DE, which is the only kind anyone should take. If you want a bonus...I know it is a natural ant and spider killer! Love the stuff.
