Guest guest Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 Hi, I'm not sure about which company ships to Japan, but wanted to post that I got 2 lbs for $17. . . I could have purchased a larger quantity for about the same, but figured 2 pounds would be enough for now. I found some web sites charging $50 for 9 oz!!! Bargains can be found. I purchased from the following website (possibly they can ship overseas if you call them): http://www.wolfcreekranch.net/products.html#DE Diatomaceous earth Could someone please advise where they purchase a reasonably priced, good quality brand of diatomaceous earth on the internet.

Guest guest Posted June 16, 2008 Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 Okay, I'm not Dan, but will mentioned I ordered diatomaceous earth and it arrived today. From what I read it gets rid of parasites by putting tiny little cuts in their bodies and killing them. I've been using parasital herbs for about a month and have noticed a bit of strings occasionally, so I think the diatomaceous earth may also help and will find out after I take it. I tried about 1/2 teaspoon earlier and am still alive (lol!) so I'll take more tomorrow on an empty stomach.

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 Trying to order diatomaceous earth and neem oil from Golden Harvest Organics. Their phone line is always busy and they do not answer e-mails. My question is, has anyone ever ordered from them? And has anyone ever used their DE for human use? I want to try Neem oil and DE but need a good safe source to order from. I have parasites and yeast unknown in humans, dx by DNA testing.

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 Hi Kim, I think that because diatomaceous earth is basically an inorganic substance I have seen no references to it's use in cooking or baking. Most mix it with some sort of liquid to disguise the taste though I just mix it with purified water, a bit of red desert clay, and some psyllium powder. Most don't take more than one or two TBS a day. Here is something I found on the wolfcreekranch website: quote: People are always asking me, how to take diatomaceous earth. There is NO one perfect way to take DE. I KNOW you are already disappointed with this fact, as you were hoping there was ONLY ONE " Perfect " way to take it. (Sorry 'bout that) Everyone's' preferences are different. Some people take 1 heaping tsp. in a glass of water prior to each meal, 3x/day and swear by DE's wonderful health benefits keeping acne away, clean clear skin, better sleep, more energy, stronger hair and nails. Others take a heaping tablespoon just before bedtime, figuring it's best to take it away from food because of its detox benefits. Others take it in the morning in their juice. Still others put it in their protein drink, smoothies, morning coffee, etc. Whether you take DE once/day or 3x/day, everyone reports effectiveness and better health.(end quote) I'm not ruling out, however, the possibility that SOMEONE on the list has tried cooking or baking with it :-) Best, Dee -- In Coconut Oil , " mom2gymbrat " <km.thyroid@...> wrote: > > I purchased some Diatomaceous Earth primarily for a safe way to keep my pets worm free. > > I am excited to be reading all of the health benefits for humans as well. > > How else can this be taken?

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 It's my understanding, as I read this a couple of years ago from a reliable source, that the use of DE in commercial bake mixes (muffins, pancakes, cakes, etc.) is quite common. Apparently it's used to prevent live bugs from being in the flour. Since reading about that, I've made it a practice to mix a few TBS of DE in every bag of flour I bring into the house, and I've not had those little, brown bugs that can be found in flour ever since. Also, since beginning to take DE regularly, a few months ago, I've also started adding it to everything I bake. My breads and such are turning out just fine, and I like the fact that when I eat those baked goods, I can cut back a bit on the DE that I drink. While mixing it in water, juice and broths is fine, it's not great, but I can't even tell it's in my baked items.

Guest guest Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 Probably not much in flour since people still get worms.

Guest guest Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 Be sure you're using Food Grade DE, not the one used for pools and outdoor uses. DE is good for natural pest control and I've read it can be good for killing internal parasites, but I think I read you should use caution with long-term use as it may cause stomach problems. DE is also an inhalation hazard, so be sure not to breathe it in, it can damage your lungs. I would search earthclinic.com and curezone.com for more information. > > I purchased some Diatomaceous Earth primarily for a safe way to keep my pets worm free. > > I am excited to be reading all of the health benefits for humans as well. > > How else can this be taken?

Guest guest Posted October 23, 2010 Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 Does this rid your pets of ALL worm types? How much do you give per pound of weight? How fast does it work?

Guest guest Posted October 24, 2010 Report Share Posted October 24, 2010 I and a friend have both used DE for pest control/ It works fairly quickly. She put a tsp of it in her cats food each day. A week later no more parasites. It kills all types of parasites. Now she uses it on a regular basis. I take it myself in various ways to add minerals and keep form having any parasitic problems. I also mix a spoonful in any bulk grains or flour or oatmeal I purchase. It keeps the critters out and therefore preserves the shelf life. Just make sure you use Food Grade. We had a problem with fleas starting up. I put a mask on and sprinkeled it on the carpets, in the bed, on the furniture and them took a broom and swept it around to get it into the fibers. I also spread some on the bare floors and around the baseboards. I left it down for about three weeks. Then it got vacuumed up. It worked well. I did this again about a month later for about a week to make sure I got any that may have been missed. It really works great. On farms it is used a lot in animal feed. Keeps the parasites away, adds minerals and there are fewer flys etc in the dung.

Guest guest Posted October 24, 2010 Report Share Posted October 24, 2010 Personally, I hated DE. I bought some years ago and dusted the whole house with it [with 5 rooms of carpet] after my cats were reacting to fleas in the Summer. It nearly destroyed my vacuum cleaner and my cats never liked it at all - in food, on them, or any other way. I finally found a good way to minimize flea problems on them by feeding them nothing but raw meats, raw eggs, raw fish, etc. Lately I don't have to apply flea chemicals to them and they seem naturally flea resistant.

Guest guest Posted October 24, 2010 Report Share Posted October 24, 2010 I was going to start a kennel and have found that I can't handle it alone so I have a LOT of dogs that would cost a fortune to raw feed. I may switch over when I get some of my dogs pared down. Sylvia On Sun, Oct 24, 2010 at 8:43 AM, ph R. <cubbycat@...> wrote: > Personally, I hated DE.

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2010 Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 joe, would you mind expanding a little on the raw food for your cats? what types of meat... how do you address possible contamination... must the meat be organic thanks elaine > > Personally, I hated DE.

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2010 Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 I also feed my pets only raw meat, bone and organs, have done so for three years now. I learned all I needed to know (and it's really quite simple, no need to over-think it as many do) at the " RawCat and RawChat " . They're friendly, quite patient groups, and the moderators are extremely knowledgeable. Like Joe's cats, mine no longer suffer from fleas since beginning raw. Organic meat is preferred, grass fed, organic being the best, but for most, that's simply not affordable or available, so grocery store meat works fine. For cats, raw feeding is a bit trickier than with dogs, so do spend a bit of time at the RawCat Group to learn about the difficulties you may face, as well as the need for Omegas and Taurine, etc. Truly, though it's not always easy to transition a cat to raw, the results are well worth it. By the way, as to expense...feeding raw can be quite a bit less expensive than feeding premium cat foods. In the meantime, until you switch your cats to raw, or if you don't switch them, please know that even the very cheapest canned cat food is better for your cats than even the most expensive, " premium " dry, kibble foods, and whatever you do, don't feed that semi-moist stuff. It's horrible, quite damaging to the health. (Sorry about this being off-topic, but the question was asked, and I'm very passionate about raw feeding.)

Guest guest Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 I feed my cats natural pork, Cornish game hen with bones, organic chicken, turkey, whole beaten eggs, coconut oil, organs, and wild salmon. I try to buy natural stuff but may resort to commercial if it's all that's available. Commercial meats are IMO far better than feeding them canned or dry foods.
