Our Gut Scrub 100% Diatomaceous Earth (DE) is a food grade fossil shell powder made up of a natural mix of minerals rich in silica, calcium, magnesium, zinc and iron. Mixed into water, juice, or a smoothie, DE powder can be used as a natural binder for detoxification.  When consumed, Diatomaceous Earth is thought to act like a gentle abrasive, moving through the digestive system and potentially binding to toxins, heavy metals, and other impurities, helping the body eliminate them through regular bowel movements or coffee enemas. As well as aiding in digestion, DE also supports hair, skin, and nail health due to its silica content, and may also help reduce bloating.
