What does silica do in the body?

A 2016 study by Sao Paulo University, Brazil reported that silica helps form the building blocks of collagen, an important protein found in your skin, blood, cartilage, muscles and ligaments. 

Collagen is needed to keep skin springy and elastic, and provide crucial protection and structure to your organs and joints.

Silica Benefits for the Skin

Like we said, silica is necessary for collagen production to improve skin elasticity. To dig a little deeper, it stimulates fibroblasts which releases collagen type 1 - the type that minimises fine lines in youthful skin

Is silica mineral good for you?

There are many studies that show the presence of silica helps the body use calcium. As we get older, our silica levels decline, and our bones weaken. 

There is plenty of evidence that silica is vital to bone health and preventing fractures as we age

Teeth and gums get a boost from silica, too..

What does silica do to hair?

Silica doesn't promote hair growth, but it does strengthen hair and prevent thinning. 

It does this by delivering essential nutrients to your hair follicles. 

As a bonus, it can also benefit your skin and nails. 

Be sure to speak with your doctor before trying silica for hair loss.

Is silica good for anti aging?

Maintaining sufficient silica levels means we can keep up collagen production as well, helping reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines by keeping our skin plump and firm.

What are the symptoms of lack of silica?

Lack of silica

In the absence of silica, runny nose or mucus and phlegm might occur. 

Prolonged silica deficiency causes delayed bone growth, atrophy of many organs, premature aging of skin, nails and hair and loss of tissue elasticity

Is it better to take silica or collagen?

While collagen provides the framework for our bones, silica strengthens these bonds and makes them more mobile. 

Silica is required for both building and then absorbing collagen, helping to glue collagen together.

When should I take silica?

Collagen production naturally slows from around the age of 25 (we know, so young!). 

So we recommend that those with 'normal' skin types should start to supplement their silica levels from around their late 20s. (Although it's never too late to start.)

Who should take silica supplements?

Silica is vital to bone growth and density, and works with calcium and magnesium to give bones both hardness and flexibility. 

Silica increases bone calcium absorption, even in those with osteoporosis due to aging.

Why do I need Silica?

Silica is the most plenteous and potent mineral in our body, more abundant even than more well know minerals such as calcium and Iron.

Silica is an essential mineral and is used by every single cell and every internal gland within our bodies..

Although Silica can be derived from various types of foods including green vegetables and strawberries, our ability to uptake silica from food declines rapidly with age.
