Dietary Lithium, Silicon, and Boron
-
Lithium, silicon, and boron are trace elements that may play significant roles in human health. They are not classified as essential nutrients but have been studied for their potential health benefits. Multiple mechanistic findings suggest that small exposures can produce measurable biological effects.

idk about "small exposure" cuz silicon in diets can be 50mg per day just from food

Your AI is different than my AI. My AI indicates that 30mg is typical.
The question is whether people are seeing improvements in their hair skin and nails after they supplement. Do you think that would be a fair test?
In animals, not having enough silicon in the diet has stunted growth.
Silicon as an essential trace element in animal nutrition (1986)
The graph from the paper suggests that adequate silicon my be especially important for aortas (including human aortas?).
