I have ordered online a kind of beneficial talc-like substance that is beneficial for both its insect-killing action and killing bacteria and parasites from our guts. This is called a diatomaceous earth which is a skeleton of ancient planktons that are mined for their industrial and health use and turned into powder and it comes in a food grade and non food grade form.
The food grade form can be consumed in carefully measured doses with meals for both humans and livestock and will get rid of harmful bacteria and parasites from digestive tracts and at the same time it would also absorb harmful heavy metals that makes me ill like aluminum for that matter especially for people who uses bare aluminum as their cookware.
These diatoms are like a microscopic shards of glass and because of that it eviscerates bacteria and parasites and in turn kills them. It also have a positive charge that attracts heavy metals and aluminum from our gut and absorbs it to its microscopic honeycomb structure pores where it stores the harmful substances and then we just eliminate it out via our normal bowel movement.
The industrial application of a non-food grade diatomaceous (Meaning "Full of Diatoms") earth are many, like for example its insect-killing application where it sticks to the exoskeleton and joints of the insect where it creates minute pores and perforations which dehydrates the insects thereby killing them. That in turn is useful to utilize as a non-toxic pesticide for plants and vegetables and for home insecticide to eradicate cockroaches, dust mites, and bed bugs from our furnitures and also, a healthy ticks and fleas killer for our pets.
