Eidon Liquid Silica Mineral Concentrate - Silica Supplement for Hair, Skin, and Nails, Supplement Drops to Support Collagen Production & Hair Loss for Women & Men, Helps Manage Calcium - 2 oz, 2 Pack

If your doctor is telling you to take calcium to get your bones healthy, think about getting another opinion, because that's not what bones are made of (bones have 20% calcium, and MOST of us get enough in our diets). Then research the the Phrase "strong bones need silica", and you will begin to understand our bones need minerals ALL THE TIME, not just calcium. Then read "The Calcium Lie 2" (Robert Thompson) and you will begin to understand that most of us need much more mineral supplementation that we get. This product has 375mg of silica in a tablespoon, which I am taking every other day. WHY? For me, it's all about Bone health. I am working hard to keep my MINERALS in balance, and in order. Now 375mg of silica a day is alot, and this much should rebuild bone (you need other minerals and vitamins here, let me be very clear about that). Minerals matter! I recently read that "vitamins are like little maids and butlers that scurry about turning on and off the lights, adjusting the shades, etc., but minerals were the building's foundation, the walls, the electricity (the infrastructure). According to Dr. Thompson, "Our BONES a like a "bank" that holds minerals the body needs. If we aren't making constant deposits, the body's demands (withdrawals) will render our bones brittle, thin, and our health a mess". Start thinking in terms of MINERALS that use vitamins, not the other way around. Fight to get the minerals you need--elderly people are said to have between 5 and 15 percent of their required minerals--no WONDER they have no energy--minerals are literally the "sparks" of life. Some believe that minerals ARE good health; and the reading I've done backs it up. So...I'm playing a little catch up. I'm trying to get a good macro and micro mineral BALANCE (the mineral RATIOS MATTER A LOT), and this is not simple. I am taking a lot of supplements and trying to keep up with my trace mineral elements (micro). Silica is a trace mineral element, but it is huge in bone building. My understanding is you need greater than 30-40mg for rebuilding bone. I take this every other day (I also take Eidon's Multiminerals, which has MOST, but not ALL the trace elements). When you take one mineral; another is depleted; there are synergistic and antagonistic relationships at work (quite complex). I'm a huge fan of topical magnesium; however, I just learned today that too much magnesium stops silica from entering the cells, and that is obviously not what I want. So, if you take this supplement; understand there is a cost in terms of another mineral or element in your body. Minerals have synergies, and antagonists: Cola drinks, nicotine, alchohol are antagonists to silica. But silica pushes ALUMINUM out of the cells (this can help Alzheimer's patients), so it is something to think about. My point is: minerals have to be in balance, this is needed for bone health, but there is a cost for supplementing at this level. Understand that before you jump on a particular mineral so that you don't create a cascading effect of mineral depletion. It is freally complex. The article about bone health can be found by searching on "Strong Bones Need Silica". There are excellent case studies where bone is being rebuilt (you read that correctly). Don't let anyone tell you it's normal for adults to have thinning bones. Your bones are thinner because your body is demanding minerals from them faster than you can put them in. (you can correct it). Bone health: silica, magnesium, copper, D3, K2, boron, calcium (we usually get quite enough in our diets), and major and trace elements.

I love it. Neutral taste. Lasts enough without getting bad.

fantastic product for thickening your hair. Don’t need all the other gummies. This one makes your hair grow much faster than the other stuff and cost less.

good quality - but too pricey

I've been very satisfied with the product and the seller. I've been using it for over 3 years. I feel the product has been effective in helping my skin, hair and nails. I like that it is a tasteless liquid in a small dose; one tablespoon.

This product is a most have! I bought initially because I came a cross reading of all the benefits using silica along with collagen acting like a bond agent to improve the effects on collagen in your hair, skin and nails. I'm 49 and recently I was shredding a lot, also I had barely no hair on my sides due to I pulled at very young age and never grew back so used to part my hair in the middle to cover both sides. Started to using it and like 2 weeks later a noticed a BIG difference. My hair is growing 💗 So I got stock with it, haven't stop ever since! Then I noticed that my daughter (17) was having the same problem, she started college, work plus poor care of her hair I thought was causing the problem until things got out off control. It was so bad that I got really worry thinking that she was getting bold. It was hair every where and everytime she washed I ended up with an exaggerated amount of hair on the hair stopper that I have in the shower. So I say "what the heck, why not" and gave her silica. It was hard trying to convinced her to drink it because she is like a baby when it comes to medicine, now is something that she takes every day faithfully! Sometimes with juice, water or just plain. Believe me when I say it's odorless, colorless and tasteless. A week later shredding stopped. Silica restored, fixed or whatever you want to call it. I recommended whenever I go. Some pictures show my sides and you can see hair growing; the other is to show you that's what I get from the shower after she washed her hair.

Great

I LOVED this product after using 3/4 of the Bottle I started seeing hair growth and my nails were amazing! And it was SO affordable!! I would recommend this any day UNTIL they changed it. I dropped two star because when I bought it a month ago I got 18 oz for $20 now you can get 2 20z bottles so 4 oz for double the price!!! $37. When a company changes a product and price that much in a month’s time I can’t and won’t support it. Going shopping somewhere else. It’s too bad I really liked using the liquid.
