- A woman from India eats about one kilo of sand every day
- She started this odd custom when she was ten years old
- At her old age, she is very healthy
An elderly woman from India has declared she eats around one kilo of sand every day, and claims this fact is what has made her stay a very healthy person throughout her entire life, and never go hungry.
Sudama Devi, a mother of four from the village of Kajri Noorpur, tried sand for the first time when she was ten years old as a joke with her friends, but could never stop eating it after that.
Devi claims she "loves sand like sugar" and that even her wedding dinner included sand. "Before marriage my father and my brother arranged sand for me and after marriage my husband Krishan Kumar arranged sand for me,” she proudly says.
Sudama adds that "I never feel sick but without eating sand I do not feel hunger. My economical 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 comments she is the only one in her family to have this curious habit.
