Tired skin , without tone, graying …. you need silicon !

This very important mineral is an essential element for skin, hair, nails and cartilage. Over time the silicon levels in our body decrease, especially in conjunction with menopause .

Tissues need elasticity and silicon is an element that stimulates the production of collagen and elastin. When the amount of silicon decreases in our body, calcium, its antagonist element, takes up space and stiffens joint portions, vessels, depositing itself in a disordered way and creating even painful calcifications. This is why silicon is an ally of strong joints . 

Inside the tissues, silicon promotes regeneration, cell metabolism ,

It is therefore important to integrate silicon to keep the skin and the whole organism elastic and toned. Unfortunately our body is not able to absorb it in the form of mineral, and we must therefore take care of the diet with silicon-bearing nutrients, such as oats, barley, rice, green leafy vegetables, algae , or supplement with organic silicon, with a chemical composition different from the mineral silicon and easily absorbed by the human body.

The properties of Silicon

Silicon easily passes through the tissues and reaches deep. It has restorative properties on the fibers of the dermis because it stimulates the fibroblasts.

It has antioxidant properties , counteracts the formation of free radicals, slows down cross-linking and other protein processes responsible for tissue aging.

Silicon also carries out anti-inflammatory and healing actions in cases of insect bites, wounds.

Silicon in aesthetic medicine

Silicon is used in aesthetic medicine , and the magical anti-aging punctures have now been enriched with this natural element which is inoculated in specific areas to rejuvenate the tissues of the face, neck and décolleté.

Horsetail, silicon for our body

Horsetail is a rich supplier of silicon, a powerful remineralizer. We can take it in the form of hydroalcoholic extract, it assists the absorption of calcium, strengthens the tissues, hair, nails and teeth.

It is a useful supplement to be taken with menopause, because it helps to counteract the effect of estrogen drop, prevents osteoporosis .
