Benefits of Living Silica
Living silica, also known as orthosilicic acid or soluble silica, is a form of silicon that is easily absorbed by the body. When added to water, it may offer several potential health benefits:
- Promotes Healthy Skin, Hair, and Nails: Silica is important for the formation of collagen, which is essential for maintaining the health and elasticity of the skin, hair, and nails. Adding silica to water may support the health and appearance of these tissues.
- Supports Bone Health: Silica plays a role in bone formation and mineralization. Consuming silica-rich water may help support bone density and strength, potentially reducing the risk of osteoporosis.
- Joint Health: Silica is believed to support the health of connective tissues, including cartilage and tendons. It may help improve joint flexibility and reduce the risk of conditions like arthritis.
- Cardiovascular Health: Some research suggests that silica may help support cardiovascular health by maintaining the elasticity of blood vessels and reducing the risk of atherosclerosis.
- Detoxification: Silica may aid in the removal of heavy metals and other toxins from the body by binding to them and facilitating their excretion.
- Hair Growth: Silica is thought to support hair growth and thickness by promoting collagen production and strengthening hair follicles.
- Connective Tissue Health: Silica is essential for the health and integrity of various connective tissues in the body, including tendons, ligaments, and the vascular system.
- Improved Hydration: Silica-rich water may enhance hydration and improve the body’s ability to retain moisture at the cellular level.
Living silica, also known as orthosilicic acid or soluble silica, can be obtained from various dietary sources. If you would like to add foods that contain silica into your diet, here are some common sources:
- Whole Grains: Whole grains such as oats, barley, brown rice, and wheat contain silica. Consuming these grains in their whole form rather than refined versions can provide a higher silica content. However, please keep in mind that we are not a proponent of carbohydrates.
- Root Vegetables: Vegetables like potatoes and beets are good sources of silica.
- Leafy Green Vegetables: Green, leafy vegetables like kale, spinach, and lettuce contain silica. Including a variety of these vegetables in your salads or smoothies can contribute to your silica intake.
- Bananas: Bananas are known to be a decent source of silica. Adding bananas to your daily fruit intake can be a tasty way to boost your silica levels.
- Alfalfa Sprouts: Alfalfa sprouts are rich in silica. Consider adding them to salads, sandwiches, or wraps for a nutrient-packed addition.
- Cucumber: Cucumbers have a high water content and are a good source of silica. They make a refreshing and hydrating snack.
- Bell Peppers: Bell peppers, especially the green ones, contain silica. Incorporating them into your meals adds both flavor and nutritional value.
- Herbs: Some herbs, like horsetail, are known to be high in silica. Herbal teas or supplements containing silica-rich herbs may provide additional benefits.
If you choose to consume Living Silica in liquid form, it is essential to ensure that the product is packaged in a brown bottle. This precautionary measure is taken to prevent the contents from being exposed to light. Light exposure, especially sunlight, can potentially degrade and alter the composition of certain substances, including Living Silica. The brown bottle serves as a protective barrier, shielding the contents from harmful light rays and helping maintain the product’s stability and efficacy. Therefore, selecting Living Silica in a brown bottle is a recommended practice to preserve its quality and ensure its optimal performance.
1 tablespoon per day is a recommended serving
It is odorless and tasteless and can be added to water, tea or your beverage of choice. We add it to The Cellulite Cleanse and drink it throughout the day.
