Silica

[ladychoong]

I know there have been past threads on silica but is there anyone taking it right now and what form?

I recently purchased 10grams of tabashir from here:

I'm looking into Eidon ionic silica since it's in liquid form so if anyone has had any positive results with this please do spill.

I'm trying to acheive smoother skin number one and shinier hair

I just started taking Silica last week. So I have nothing to report just yet. I'm taking Vitamin Shoppe brand. I heard about Silica from Nadege on her Relaxed Hair blog. She's had good results regarding her skin and nails. I hope to improve my paper thin nails!!

i'm gonna check her blog, i'm sure results will be coming your way soon, so keep me posted lol
BTW what form is your silica in?

ladychoong,
I have not heard of the 2 brands you have listed in your post.
I've been taking silica powder from More than Alive for about a year now. Prior to then I took a liquid form from Positive Power Nutritionals called Super Silica. TBH, I take so many different supplements and things that support each other internally I cannot isolate the effects of this one product like I can with some of my other supplements. However, from a biological perspective this is something I will continue to take if for no other reason than the mineral/ elemental simularities between the human makeup and the silica taken from the earth. I do have strong nails, shiny hair, whiter eyes, and less joint pain/ noise than a year before.
HTH

I take bamboo silica...

 

[ladychoong]

nymane how has it been working for you?

 

[nymane]

I can't really isolate the results of the bamboo silica because I also take MSM 1,000mg, Gelatin 600mg & multivitamins that include 2500mcg of Biotin. <---I've been taking these consistently for 4 months (almost 5 months)

I also do cardio for an hour 3-4x a week lol sorry....but I will say something's boosting my growth because I'm only 11 weeks post and I've been on my HHJ for 2 years and it's never come in so quickly.

ETA: ...but in general bamboo extract is one of the richest sources of silica so it's very concentrated.
