Organic silica is one of the most important essential trace elements for our body, as it is involved in countless regenerative processes through the production of repairing collagen and elastin. For this reason, an adequate concentration of this compound in the body is synonymous with good health and well-being.
Organic silica is present in bones, teeth, tendons, cartilage, muscles, nails, hair and blood vessels and a lack of it can cause various problems from the age of 35 onwards, as the assimilation of this compound through food is drastically reduced, making it necessary to provide an extra dose of organic silica to maintain cellular function at optimum levels.
What are the benefits of organic silica supplementation?
Anti-ageing benefits
Keeps skin young, hair strong and nails healthy.
Organic silica protects the skin, hair and nails against the signs of ageing, thus delaying their appearance:
- Improves skin radiance.
- Prevents wrinkles and sagging by providing elasticity and strength.
- Gives vitality to the hair.
- Prevents hair loss.
- Protects against brittle nails.
Improve the health of your bones, muscles and joints.
Over the years we lose bone density, cartilage in the joints and elasticity in tendons and ligaments. In addition, muscle mass decreases. This accelerates the onset of osteoporosis, osteoarthritis and other joint and muscle complaints.
Organic silica stimulates the formation of bone and collagen, which is why it has been shown to be effective for:
- Prevent and protect against osteoporosis.
- Accelerate the healing of bone fractures.
- Maintaining joint flexibility and slowing cartilage deterioration.
- Promote muscle and tendon recovery.
Maintains the health of the nervous system.
Silica is needed to prevent detrimental changes in the brain, especially under conditions of low calcium intake, high aluminium intake and/or inadequate thyroid function.
In this way, silica intake may be of importance in some ageing and disease processes affecting the brain as it acts as a neuroprotectant. This property is mainly associated with the reduction of aluminium levels in the brain.
The benefits of organic silica for athletes.
If we manage to maintain sufficient levels of silica in our organism, we will achieve greater elasticity in our tissues and joints, so that muscle recovery after any type of sport will be faster and more effective.
- Increases joint elasticity.
- Combats tired legs, providing relief and decongestion.
- Muscle recovery.
How is organic silica taken?
Bearing in mind that the tendency of our organism is that, little by little, the levels of organic silica are reduced, in some people it may be advisable to take an additional amount, either through a diet rich in this element, or through specific supplements.
Foods rich in organic silica
- Fruits: apple, orange, kiwi, mango, strawberries, sultanas and banana.
- Vegetables: raw cabbage, carrots, lettuce, onions, cucumber, pumpkin, green beans or green beans.
- Protein: chicken, salmon, eggs.
