Answer :

answer:Diatoms are tiny fossils that are basically crystalline silica. Inhaling that stuff can give you cancer. It’s harder than the enamel in your teeth. It has absolutely zero nutritional value. The best thing you could say about it would be that it scours your digestive tract on the way out. It would benefit you much more to just have some whole-grain oats in the morning.
