How many calories is each dirt snack?

Seems the only thing I found is how eating dirt causes all kinds of health issues and it can weirdly become an addiction. The purported benefits are a belief system, similar to people believing keto is better for fat loss. Just giving a random example lol

I luv listening to Frankie goes to Hollywood! But I do think Pink Floyd have more apt songs.

So is the dirt and crushed egg shells you were eating helping to dry out your wet colon?

This brings a whole new meaning to my wife making fun of my health food eating. I haven't tried actual dirt, but she is always saying my organic health food tastes like - dirt.

A few years back Diatomaceous Earth was a big deal going around - for the same reasons. Some people claimed fabulous results from introducing it into their diets. I tried it for a month because I figured I had nothing to lose... (abdominal issues un-diagnosed or resolved despite $$$ tests) so I was grasping at magic beans.) I never noticed any change - positive or negative. But everyone is different. I believe a large contributor to anything working is positive thoughts about it so if you believe it's helping, it may very well help. Even if it isn't the 'dirt' the very idea of it can result in a change in approach to your diet so that you eliminate something else - and that, in and of itself, is the change that showed a positive effect.

there is a drugstore equivalent, I think, and it basically functions as a physical laxative for those that experience hard stools. also works with cats. DE is still a thing out here in SoCal. Try what you want as long as it's not toxic or otherwise detrimental to your health. As for the "Georgia clay-eaters", those folks were found to have a mineral deficiency which was indeed addressed by the trace minerals in the clay they ate. Town was near where we lived and I think it was kaolin they were after.
Wow, there's a whole movie on it now. https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2014/04/02/297881388/the-old-and-mysterious-practice-of-eating-dirt-revealed

Is there a full moon right now? One might suspect that taking into consideration posts made since 1/1. All things in moderation. Yes, that includes LC woe. I hope 2020 is a year of learning for all of us. And, that we each find niches in diet that helps us reach goals we didn’t think possible.
