hi, I joined this forum as my teen recently started meds to control some seizures, my big question is whether I can give her diatomaceous earth! hope everyone is keeping well!
 
Hi Lana --

Not sure it's a good idea to have your teen start any supplement at the same time as he or she starting meds, unless it's one recommended by her doctor. Adding something else to the mix can make it tough to figure how well the meds are doing and whether there are side effects. That aside, diatomaceous earth probably isn't a good idea for either of you. See: https://www.sciencebasedmedicine.org/diatomaceous-earth-no-thank-you/
 
Thanks folks, yeah it's not wise to start a supplement alright, I don't know how to do links but NO WAY was I considering pool filter!!! Think of rock salt and table salt (although there's a poison for you!) So nice of you to take the time to reply, I think I can use the emoji bit so here's a banana doing the dance of my people :banana:
