Yes but it would have to be a very large amount
It could be quite harmful but it depends on how much chalk they ate. I suggest taking them to the doctor just to check that everything is ok.
Well one of the kids I watch ended up eating sidewalk chalk and nothing happened. But if the baby ate an extreme amount, I would suggest taking them to the doctor.
i STRONGLY reccommend seeing a doctor...the consequences are unhealthy
Chalk (calcium carbonate) is one of a few different mild abrasives present in modern toothpastes. Abrasives do help to clean the teeth of food particles and plaque, but most of the cleaning action comes from the brush itself.
The problem likely lies with the chalk itself. A lot of chalk you buy today, especially cheap chalk, is too hard to use on chalkboards with any kind of good result. Try a different brand of chalk, one that is softer.
a place that there is a chalk celebration and they write in chalk everywear iv been in one
Henry I died from eating an excess of eels, which were a delicacy at the time.
One molecule of chalk, which is calcium carbonate (CaCO3), contains one atom of calcium.
Chalk is calcium carbonate - CaCO3. Any chemical compound contain some impurities.
I am not sure why you are eating chalk in the first place. Eating items not usually considered food is called pica. This website is quite good. http://www.metrokc.gov/health/tsp/pica.htm I suggest a visit to a physician to ensure you are not suffering any medical condition which would cause a craving for this unusual substance. If nothing comes to light then some psychological insight might be helpful to help break the habit. http://www.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/684363/2/istockphoto_684363_halloween_candy_w_spider_ring.jpg I would figure that eating the multi colored pill type candy pictured here; would satisfy the chalk eating experience.
If children accidentally ingest small amounts of chalk, they will likely be fine as it is nontoxic. However, it's important to monitor them for any symptoms of stomach discomfort or nausea and contact a doctor if any concerning symptoms arise. Keep chalk and other non-food items out of reach to prevent future incidents.
