keep your hand at your heart and close your eyes and say that the thing i am eating is good for my future and your heart reply you "NO" .

It is sure that people who are eating slated pencil surely have calcium and nutrients deficiency and other medical problems, such as lead exposure. Immediately purchase calcium tablets or Tab Calcium sandose for women and chew them like slate pencil.

Slate pencils are made from a type of sedimentary rock known as Shale, which is composed of mud that is a mixture of clay minerals (kaolinite, montmorillonite and illite) and small quantities of other minerals especially quartz and calcite. The ratio of clay to the other minerals gives the shale its colour. Shale from which slate pencils are made, are light gray in colour. Slate pencils in some regions are made from soft Soapstone, which is a metamorphic rock, composed dominantly of talc. Your eating them shows that you have a condition called PICA. It usually occurs in a person who has a mineral deficiency. Since the main ingredient in slate pencils is either clay or talc, they tend to reduce ones appetite, and more seriously reduce the absorption of iron in your body and make a person anemic. I have personally experienced this and so can tell with a certain degree of certainity. I used to eat slate pencils at the rate of a box per day(20 pieces), and finally after a while I was diagnosed with Iron deficiency anemia. My haemoglobin levels dropped to half the normal range. I would advise you to visit a doctor as soon as possible and get ur CBC test done. Do stop eating slate pencils before it is too late. correct whatever mineral deficiency you have and once that is corrected the craving to eat slate pencils will automatically vanish and until then please exert ur will power and stop eating those slate pencils. Gud luck and stay strong.

not eating
Yes, eating slate pencil (pica) is very harmful. I have been consuming slate-pencils for the past 1 year now. I eat as many as 40-50 slate-pencils per day at a stretch for about 2 -3 weeks. After that, I tend to stop eating slate-pencils for a day or two at most. During this past 1 year, I observed that my haemoglobin levels have dropped drastically, I have begun to experience bouts of dizziness for a minute or two once in a month. Eating slate-pencils has lowered my appetite for regular food to some extent. I have stomach cramps occassionally. All this is nothing compared to a kind of dazed feeling I experience in one part of my brain - especially the left brain. I feel dazed, as though something horrible is happening inside my head without my control. I feel as though it is the end of the world and that I may go insane. It was at this point that I began to try and understand the effects of slate-eating. As a child (4 yrs. old) during play, I used to eat slate-pencils and stopped that when my parents scolded me. By then the damage was done - because I loved the taste of it. It was at this point that I was found to be having calcium deficiency. Almost 33 yrs later, I resorted to eating slate-pencils again out of severe depression resulting from financial losses,marital disputes - and my mother-in-law's bid at damanging my reputation. I have since been unable to resist slate-pencil eating. But, after I began experiencing abnormal pains, dizziness, blank mind etc., I have started efforts to curb this habit but am unable to break this habit. I know that the root cause is depression but my love for my young kids is what making me rething and change my habits. I hope I will come a winner.
