Silica is one of those elements whose list of benefits keeps growing as time passes. Silica is the second most prevalent element on earth, behind oxygen. In its crystalline form, silicon (or quartz), is the most abundant element in the earth's crust. When found in plant life, it's called silica. Silica is essential in bones, tendons, skin, cartilage and blood vessels. Silica is even found in the blood itself, and in such critical organs as the liver, heart and lungs.

Silica adds strength and flexibility. It's obvious why strength and flexibility are essential to skin and bones. It's also important to know that silica supports blood vessel health, making it extremely important in supporting heart health. Recent studies have suggested that silica may have a key role in the prevention of osteoporosis and Alzheimer's disease.
Taken orally, silica is easily absorbed via the intestinal wall. It is also rapidly and easily excreted; so regular, daily supplementation is important. Because it is water soluble, it does not "build up" in the body. No studies have found any negative effects of "too much" silica. Unfortunately, natural levels of silica tend to drop with age.
Hair and Nails. Silica helps hair grow thicker and stronger and nails grow faster and harder.

I’ve taken silica for my skin and had good results prior to being obsessed with my hair but I’ve just added back into my vit. regimen.
You can take silica pils or gel(liquid), but the liquid will be absorbed into your body faster. It's usually tasteless and best taken with your multi or vitamin C.
