Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth 5 lb.

Nature's Wisdom's Diatomaceous Earth is extremely pure. Maintaining a consistent diatom shape and avoiding unwanted sediment are crucial. The diatom's shape must be tubular with holes on the walls. It must be from a freshwater source, as diatoms in saltwater form a more fragile shell. Saltwater deposits contain a mix of diatom species, resulting in inconsistent shapes and sediments, rendering them unusable for our products. Out of 600 deposits in the US, only 4 are considered "food grade." Other "food grade" deposits may still contain higher amounts of sediment and clay, making them less effective. We have analyzed many other "food grade" deposits and are satisfied that we obtain the highest quality Diatomaceous Earth for our products from the purest freshwater source.

Diatomaceous Earth (DE) is not an earth; it is the fossilized remains of microscopic shells created by one-celled plants called diatoms. Our 100% Freshwater Diatomaceous Earth contains absolutely no additives or fillers, and it is mined in the USA, specifically in Nevada. This pure white food-grade Diatomaceous Earth has been in the ground for hundreds of years and does not expire.

Our Diatomaceous Earth is professionally packaged in stainless steel machinery on a dedicated line, ensuring a high-quality and sealed air-tight product. This Diatomaceous Earth can be used to refill our 1 and 3 lb. jars, providing a convenient and reliable source for our customers.
