Do You Know The Relationship of Silica Has With The Body?

November 6, 2015 By Corey B

Silica is a compound of Silicon and oxygen. It is generally what we commonly refer to as sand found all over the earth. Reports about silica being a possible essential element came more than thirty years ago. Some people even say that there is no life without silica due to the very important role it plays in the human body.

It has been discovered that an average person takes in about 20 to 60 milligrams of the important mineral silica daily and it contributes to 0.05 percent of our body weight. Silica helps in cellular regeneration activity and stimulation of the systematic detoxification pathway aiding in the removal of metabolic waste.

Silica is abundantly found in fruits, vegetables, and grains like bananas, rice, breakfast cereals, bread, pasta, green beans, mango, pumpkin, carrots, oats, honey and oranges. It is very essential for bone and cartilage growth. It prevents the bones from injuries, helps with arthritis, bone growth, and strengthens the connective tissues thus preventing swelling of joints. Since silica helps the body to absorb calcium, it helps in healing skeletal diseases and building strong bones and teeth indirectly due to the fact that calcium is absorbed in the body by the aid of silica. Studies have even shown that people who have broken bones tend to heal quicker under high levels of silica in their bodies compared to calcium.

Silica helps the body in maintaining the balance of two minerals magnesium and calcium which helps in hormonal balance. Therefore, Silica prevents osteoporosis which is the cause of hormonal imbalance in the body.

Silica has an impact on every cell and gland in our bodies. Both the central nervous system and the cardiovascular system which entirely relies on magnesium and calcium have their balance in the body achieved by silica. It has been discovered that people who never have heart diseases always have fourteen times more of the silica in their bodies compared to those people who regularly have heart problems.

Regular consumption of silica helps in the improvement of kidney functioning, preventing kidney problems, the good health of the urinary tract and the kidney stones. It controls the action of the kidneys by regulating the amount of water and potassium released from the body. Low potassium in turn can have negative effects on the functioning of the heart.

Silica helps in the rebuilding and maintaining of the stomach and the digestive tract. It also eliminates aluminum from the body which is the cause of Alzheimer’s disease. Silica maintains the health of our skin tissue since it is a major component of the collagen. A good intake of it helps prevent the thinning of hair. It also takes nutrients to the nails thus feeding the nails with nutrients ensuring they become strong and healthy.

 

Diatomaceous Earth

 

Diatomaceous Earth is about 84% silicon dioxide. When it is taken into the body, it attracts bacteria, protozoa, viruses, fungi and toxins and absorbs them. It is also very hard and this hardness helps in scrubbing the intestinal walls as it moves through them thus cleaning them. A small amount of it is absorbed into the blood as silica which enhances our immune system making our body organs including the skin to function properly.
