Geophagia (pronounced /dÊiÉËfeÉȘdÊÉ, -dÊiÉ/) (also known as geophagy (pronounced /dÊiËÉfÉdÊi/)) is the practice of eating earth or soil-like substrates such as clay or chalk. It occurs in non-human animals where it may be a normal or abnormal behaviour, and also in humans, most often in rural or preindustrial societies among children and pregnantwomen. Human geophagia may be related to pica, an eating disorder in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) characterized by abnormal cravings for non-nutritive items.
Humans
Anthropological and historical evidence
Some researchers believe that humans first ate soil in Africa:
Geophagia is nearly universal around the world in tribal and traditional rural societies (although apparently it has not been documented in Japan and Korea). In the ancient world, several writers noted the use of geophagia. Pliny is said to have noted the use of soil on Lemnos, an island of Greece, and the use of the soils from this island was noted until the 14th century. The textbook of Hippocrates (460â377 BCE) mentions geophagia, and the famous medical textbook called De Medicina edited by A Cornelius Celsus (14â37 CE) seems to link anaemia to geophagia.

I Tried Eating Dirt So You Don't Have To
Geophagia -- eating dirt -- is a gastronomic oddity that has transcended time and cultures throughout human history. A little studied field, geophagia and its cravings could have physiological significance. Research has found that the consumed clay can chelate (leach) away potentially toxic metals like lead and mercury and other organic toxins produced by plants, but can also take away essential metals like zinc and iron. Clay also contains minerals, so could act like a "multivitamin".
So many websites offer "edible" dirt and clay, even though clay (also known as kaoline) was banned from pharmaceutical products by the FDA in 2003.
So, with all that in mind, I decided to try out what eating clay would be like. Let's just say, I wouldn't give it any Michelin stars, but it wasn't super offen...
