Silica supplement for healthy hair, skin and nails

Collagen is known as nature’s building blocks, and is found throughout our bodies. It can be found in our bones, tendons, ligaments, skin, cornea, cartilage and even blood vessels. Collagen is what keeps our skin looking young, our nails strong and our hair healthy.

Collagen diseases, apart from genetic defects, can largely be attributed to nutritional deficiencies, which affect the formation of collagen. Silicon is essential in the formation of collagen, and recent studies have shown that silicon deficiency affects the concentration of collagen in bones as well as collagen forming enzymes.

Lack of collagen can cause hair loss, brittle nails and loss of elasticity in our skin, resulting in wrinkles. Studies have shown that silicon supplementation can assist in maintaining and even rejuvenating our hair, skin and nails.

Silicon is found naturally as silicon dioxide (silica) in food. Unfortunately there are not many foods that contain silica, so silica supplementation is needed. Comprehenzive Colon and Body Health, have a silica mineral supplement, which also acts as a daily cleanser.

Why is it important to take a daily silica supplement?

 

Unfortunately our bodies do not retain all of the silicon it needs when absorbed through our digestive system. We therefore need to supplement our bodies daily with some form of silicon. Apart from Comprehenzive Colon Cleanz being a mineral supplement, it also assists with cleansing the digestive tract, so that nutrients can be absorbed more efficiently, and waste can be expelled.

 

What is the advantage of cleansing our bodies?

 

Often areas in our digestive tract, such as the colon, can be clogged up with waste. We need nutrients to survive and we get those nutrients from food in our digestive tract. A clogged up colon prevents our bodies functioning effectively to absorb the nutrients we eat, and expel the waste in our systems. This can therefore result in our overall health diminishing, including the health of our hair, skin and nails.

What is the advantage of taking a silica supplement instead of using silica enriched beauty products?

 

Silica enriched beauty products do have advantages, but the bioavailability of the silica is often not very high. This means that the body cannot absorb all of the silica efficiently. A mineral supplement however contains a form of silica, which the body can absorb much more easily than a topical beauty product.

Comprehenzive Colon and Body Health’s silica supplement is also an affordable solution to using expensive beauty products on a daily basis. Their products can be found in a number of pharmacies around South Africa listed here. Alternatively you can buy online through the website.
