  1. ``Diatomaceous Earth: The "Silver Bullet"''

    ``Natural diatomaceous earth (DE for short) is the
    remains of microscopic one-celled plants (phytoplankton)
    called diatoms that lived in the oceans that once covered
    the western part of the United States and other parts of
    the world.''

    Basically, diatomaceous earth combats pathogens by slicing
    small organisms into shreds.

    I would be interested to know if this has been tried in
    humans - or (somewhat similarly) whether bentonite or
    activated charcoal have been so tested.

    Incidentally - I presume it underwent extensive safety
    testing in humans - before it was used in many brands of
    toothpaste - so I'm thinking more theraputic utility than
    safety in my question.
