Silicon the dietary nutrient
-
.. all the while keeping in mind that the silicon that occurs naturally in foods is a totally different animal than the one that is called a supplement. Ray warned that taking the supplement is akin to consuming powdered glass. Caveat emptor.

The bamboo extract supplement I was taking, 70% silica according to the label, dissolved in water. It even tasted sweet, kinda boosted the flavor of tea when I would add it to tea.

@Hearthfire would thsi work

I call it quits at 3l a day. 1.5l seems reasonable long term lol. Not ideal; 1.5l volvic. Green beans as the preffered dinna tyme veg. Opting for the brown bread pill. Would get my silicon intake to 50mg a day I reckon. On par with the average. But I can't complain.

@sunsunsun the low power AI

Sure, if you prefer tincture form.
I used the Nutricost Bamboo Extract from Amazon.
This: https://a.co/d/00UHkZ7oI think you get more silica/extract overall with the Nutricost.

What about the size of the silicon molecule to reach the cell, as if any " bio extract" from water, vegetable or bread could reach the target / the cell, at the same level !? No matter the state of your metabolism (> 55 yrs)

Hi,
Ultrasil is bamboo silicon. As most plant silicon, the molecule has not the right size to enter the mitochondria. Only 30 % reach the membranes when the molecule has been stabilized. 30% of 6.300 = 189 mg from one liter. I’d rather say 3%, in the best case, here. Why: nothing has been said about the process.
• Silica 63.750 mg
• Silicic acid 6.300 mg => 1/10th
• Elemental silicon 30.750 mg
• Dry bamboo extract 75.000 mg
Advise: You’ll get the same result with the first four leaves from a nettle infusion.
It’s a question of molecule size and stability.
I can develop if interested what you should pay attention to. -
@sunsunsun please verify???????

@alfredoolivas kekw i think thats wrong.
cucumbers are in the silicon sudies tho iirc its like under 5mg per 100g but it is apparently highly bioavailable -
@sunsunsun interesting, still moggy concentrations!
