I got my questions answered in another thread.

1) is there ever a time or illness in which de isn't to be taken? [COLOR="rgb(255, 0, 255)"]Not that I've found.[/COLOR]
2) does it give you the runs or make you throw up as you detox/cleanse? [COLOR="rgb(255, 0, 255)"]No. We have not had any problems[/COLOR]
3) does it help the immune system in general? [COLOR="rgb(255, 0, 255)"]Yes[/COLOR]
4) I see talk of getting rid of food allergic, do you need to take it daily for this? [COLOR="rgb(255, 0, 255)"]DE doesn't cure allergies[/COLOR]
5) I saw mention of not taking during respiratory symptoms, can a child who has (probable) asthma be ok to take it as long as they don't have an attack or flare up at the time. Why can't it be taken during respiratory symptoms? Is it the dustiness?it's ok to take with a cold/whatever. It's not great to inhale ever.


We took DE for 30 days. I got rid of headaches, TMJ symptoms, constipation, mood issues.
Dd1 got rid of mood issues and constipation.
Dd2 got Rid of constipation
Dh got rid of constipation and SAD.
We ran out and were off it for three weeks. In those three weeks I got massive headaches and mood swings. Also constipation and tmj symptoms. Dd1 and dd2 had big feelings!! They also caught a stomach virus but I'm not sure DE would've prevented that.

We've been back on it for a week. Lowered mood issues, constipation is gone for everyone. My tmj symptoms are gone. We feel way way better on it.
