There are some excellent DEs sold that are "food grade" in every way but the certification. It is the cost of testing for certification for "food grade" that makes it so expensive. To be certified every manufactured batch needs to be tested to be certified. So the same company can produce both food grade and non-food grade DE that is the exact same product. I have purchased food grade that is slightly whiter than DE that is equally pure but not certified. I think that can be simply from different producers or batches. DE is mined from ancient fresh water lakes that dried up. There is also marine DE, which has a different mineral profile........... I have used both my food grade and my "regular" DE (pure no additives, no insecticides added, not heat processed, etc) with equal success---------at least I could not tell any difference expect price, and the slight color difference. sol -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
