Amazing stuff!

The whole grain diet: Indian woman, 92, eats a kilogram of SAND a day for eight decades and amazes doctors with her perfect health.


  • Sudama Devi first ate sand for a bet with friends when she was aged ten.
  • Mother-of-four, from Kajri Noorpur, India, now eats four plates every day.
  • It is surprising she is physically fit and not seriously ill, doctors said.

A 92-year-old Indian woman who admitted she eats a kilogram of sand every day has amazed doctors with her perfect health.
Sudama Devi first ate sand for a bet with friends when she was aged just ten.
But the mother-of-four, from Kajri Noorpur, became addicted to the grit and now eats four plates of it every day

She claims the unusual habit, which saw her eat only sand for dinner following her wedding to husband Krishan Kumar, is the reason she has never had to visit a doctor or be hungry.

Mrs Devi said: 'I eat sand daily, about one kilogram and three or four times in a day.

'My economic condition is not good but I am fond of eating a good and healthy diet. I eat sand but it is not like a food.'

She added that the sand was so good when she tried it as a child she soon tied it in to her routine diet.

She said: 'I had seven sons and three daughters but now I have only three sons and one daughter alive. No one eats sand.

'Before marriage my father and my brother arranged sand for me and after marriage my husband Krishan Kumar arranged sand for me.

'When I came first time (sic) in my husband's home everybody felt surprised to see that a bride eats sand.’

One local from the village described Mrs Devi as 'fully physically fit'.

'She has no disease in her body,' they said. 'Without sand she does not feel hunger.'

It is surprising Mrs Devi has good fitness and does not suffer any serious illnesses, doctors said.

Where do they get the sand?
 
Hunger problem solved give sand to all those narega and manrega people.

Poor people must eat sand. For those who don't want to work just want subsidy.
 
There is a person who eats pieces of glass
 
As a biomedical researcher, I found the stuff amazing. I have not posted it so that certain posters take cheap shot at the lady or her country. People can develop bizarre habits, and amazingly don't get hurt though logic and knowledge suggest otherwise. She is literally surviving while galloping one kilo sand, she must have an amazingly strong digestive system. Sandblasting is used to clean stuff, for sand is extremely abrasive in nature, and this lady's organs are surviving all that abuse for this long.

Is there no sand in India?

I would have thought from the desert area...
it looks like normal sand from pictures. Had it been a delicacy I think they would have mentioned it.

Metogenomics of her gut + her sand supply would be VERY interesting....
 
I am also told that she shits bricks. Needless to say she built her own house out of brick and sand. And all the huffing and puffing by the big bad wolf could not knock it down. They used to call her the sand fairy, now they just call her budiya.
 
Its a rare genetic dis order

I remember once watching Stanleys Super Human on Discovery channel.
Their was a guy who ate multiple light bulbs and Tube lights in front of camera, and incredibly his stomach was able to digest them and he was also able to poop like a normal person
