Diatomaceous earth ingestion

[mr.jay]

I heard that about DE. Ingestion is okay (in moderation).

What about us plate and frame guys? I'm always scraping those things together and making dust. That can't be good. I know malt dust can be harmful....but hop dust? What the, what? Joe Jackson was right. Everything gives you cancer. My mom used to tell me if I ate too many watermelon seeds, they would grow in my stomach. I guess in hindsight... she was right, if "watermelons" were code for "tumors."

DE for Cows

Not sure if this really relates to this, but DE is fed to cows to worm them (an acceptable worm medication for USDA Organic). If it slices up intestinal worms (or whatever it does to them) than I would think that it could do to humans something after repeated consumption.

Hop dust is very dangerous. Full of phyto-estrogens.

Man bra (or Bro') dangerous.

The occasional snort will just lower your libido.

On that I have no comment....
