My sister married a guy who has a PHD.  in Oceanography , but most actively works in geology.  He 's a rock doctor.  Anyhow, he went to the a health food store to get something for exema and they offered him some dirt capsules, high quality bacteria filled dirt that is.  The logic behind this new trend is that your body needs good bacteria and where better to find bacteria than soil.  The real story here.  is that a geologist is eating dirt.  I will let you know if he leaves his wife for a boulder or something.

The following is a Product Description of Primal Defense  ie dirt in a capsule.
