It’s definitely important to get minerals into your body

I’m just not sure if eating dirt for 11 years is the best way to go about getting a well balanced diet.

A young Chinese woman is undergoing medical checks in Beijing after reportedly consuming soil for 11 years.

China Central Television reported on Friday that the parents of 18-year-old Baobao brought her from her home in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region to the capital to find out why she enjoyed eating dirt.

During the interview, Baobao estimated she had eaten about three tons of soil since she was first stricken by the urge to eat earth.

The real question is what type of bowel movements would one have after adding so much dirt to their daily diet?

    This is a medical problem based on an iron deficiency. Many pregnant women get the urge to eat dirt because they are lacking iron.

    Do you suppose eating dirt would cause you to shit bricks?!??
