Silica is the same material found in Quartz, and it\u2019s essentially porous sand.<\/p>\n<p>Eating one packet may not kill you, but the side effects that come with that one packet aren\u2019t worth it. As soon as you empty the packet into your mouth, the moisture is absorbed from every part of your mouth and tongue. If there is still moisture left in your throat, that will be absorbed as you swallow.<\/p>\n<p>Everything will feel incredibly dry, and from there you may suffer from dry eyes, sore throat, and an upset stomach. <\/p>\n<p>How quickly you recover depends on how much you eat, and a visit to your doctor definitely wouldn\u2019t hurt.<\/p>\n<p>You shouldn\u2019t try to eat silica gel.
