    •Silica supplementation helps repair and maintain vital lung tissue and protects them from pollution. By maintaining or restoring the elasticity of lung tissue, silica reduces inflammation in bronchitis.
    •It acts as a cough decreasing agent. Silica tones the upper respiratory tract (nose, pharynx, larynx) and reduces swelling because of its positive action on the lymphatic system.

    i thought it caused a pnemoconiosis called silicosis! go figure(go google)!!:laugh: :wink:
    edited , to ask the difference between above mentioned panacea and clean washed sand!!not being sarcastic ,am just curious!!

    I used it once to treat fleas in my house. Honestly, it doesn't seem like something I'd want to ingest.

    According to Wikipedia, you can just eat cat litter!

    Mmm I'll sprinkle it into my salad for an burst of extra freshness.

    I use it to destroy the exoskeletons of pest insects so that they die a slow death from desiccation. But I guess you could eat it if you're worried about weevils in your food.
