Diatomaceous Earth

CW Apothecary is a wholesale supplier of 100% Organic Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth. It is a naturally occurring, soft, siliceous sedimentary rock that can be crumbled into a fine white to off-white powder. Depending on the granularity, this powder can have an abrasive feel, similar to pumice powder. Diatomaceous earth consists of the fossilized remains of diatoms, a type of hard-shelled microalgae. It is used as a filtration aid, mild abrasive in products including metal polishes and toothpaste, mechanical insecticide, and a natural ingredient in cosmetics like deodorant.
