PICA is extremely dangerous, i was suffering frm it last past 10 yrs. I was consuming slate pencils and sometimes chalk. Never was able to sum up the courage to go and talk to the doctor coz i was ashamed of this habit. After i got married i cudnt eat slate pencils nymore still there was no change in my health. I was underweight, lacked immunity and lost almost half of my hair. The first thing i did, was go and do a blood check.i did cbc test and my haemoglobin was only 7.2. normal range is 13 for women. So went to the doctor. Doc prescribed me iron tablets for 2 months. I also took deworming medicine zentle easily available in all medical stores.within a week of taking iron tabs my craving started to vanish and in one month all craving was gone. I started gaining weight and my immunity strengthened and my hair started growing and looking healthy. After my iron tabs wer finished i started taking multi vitamins for 3 months and i have never been happier. My cravings are all but totally gone. I make sure my iron levels are gud and exercise regularly. My overall health is superb now.
Lastly jus want to say that its never to late to stop something which is bad for your health. PICA is like an addiction like alcohol, drugs and u shd take it seriously.

Hi, this is a disorder caused mainly by iron deficiency and is called PICA. Please consult a doctor. I have been into this for more than 20 yrs and have gotten rid of it after treatment. If you don't treat yourself now, your iron content will keep decreasing leading to Fatal results.

I also eat slate pencils past 9 years.When i didnot eat more food,water and vegies i had lots of rashes on my face and body.And also i felt lezy like i dont have much enery for anything.So if u have a addiction of eating pencils then you should maintain your diet properly.
