Silica De

Next to oxygen, silicon is the most prevalent element on earth. The mineral silicon makes up 28.9% of the earth's crust, with quartz being the most commonly occurring form. Within the human body, this naturally occurring mineral is found in the form of silica, a natural compound made of silicon and oxygen. All connective tissue cells in the body, nails, hair and skin, contain silica. Silica plays an active role in giving tissues the ability to hold firmness, and strength, and in bone formation and demineralization. Silica molecules enhance the body's ability to increase the water absorption of essential proteins, acting as a binding agent. By binding existing calcium, protein and water molecules together, they help strengthen and revitalize skin, hair, and nails.

Silica is an essential mineral that we are not getting in adequate amounts because of mineral-depleted soils, resulting in a lack of sufficient quantities of silica in the food. As we age, our supply of silica also becomes depleted, resulting in wrinkled, dry skin, dull, lackluster hair and brittle nails.
