silica which is a mineral needed in your body for the building of collagen for
your bones and connective tissue. It is also required for good healthy skin,
fingernails, and hair. Silicon is needed for calcium absorption in the
beginning phase of bone formation. Silicon also benefits your cardiovascular
system and is required to keep your arteries flexible.
The mineral silicon also reduces the effects of
aluminum on your body, thus helps in prevention of Alzheimer's disease and
