As I’ve said in previous reviews, I’m a HUGE Dr. Mercola Fan. His products are fantastic.<br />What I love most is, the simple ingredients- no harsh chemicals or Additives that you don’t need or want in your system.<br />I recently started taking the silica supplement and am impressed with how fast I saw results. My nails are growing like crazy and are stronger than they’ve ever been. I’ve noticed a visible difference in the strength and growth of my hair, it even seems to be a lot more shinier too, which I love!<br />This is a great supplement for bone/joint health as well.<br />The dosing suggestion is 1 capsule 2x’s a day, and that’s exactly how I’ve taken it, with fantastic results, Dr. Mercola is a brand/name you can trust, and I highly recommend you give these a try!

The only Silica supplement that actually makes my nails grow! And I've tried plenty.

I have been reading research about the many benefits of silica recently, including; healthy hair, skin, & nails, improvements in connective tissue and bone formation, boost to the immune system, faster healing, and improved heart health through more flexible arteries. Silica works synergistically with collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid.<br /><br />I have also read that silica is difficult to obtain from a normal diet. These easy to swallow capsules reportedly provide an easily absorbed form of silica. They seem to be working well for me so far.

My nails, skin and hair are stronger. In the summer time my mosquito bites were healed faster..I find out that I need silica to easy reaction on these bits. And it's now my favorite product for my skin,joints, hair...

I usually took Silica regularly everyday, but I was sick for almost a year and stopped<br />Taking all My vitamins and herbs (big mistake), although I eat mostly plant base , and do not take any meds. I’m a older women.<br />Btw Drs. Really could not find anything wrong, I figured it out myself.<br />That said, my nails are a mess, breaking, and pealing, and my hair is not growing as fast,<br />And I do not think it’s as healthy either.<br /><br />I’m just starting back on my vitamins and Dr. Mercola silica seems ok, but I use to take more then 10mg of silica and saw good results.<br /><br />This says it’s a collagen builder, and the MMST is a living Silica. It might be, but it’s a low<br />Grade Living silica from everything I have read about it.<br />I’ll continue taking this silica, and then double the amount, if I do not see a change just taking one, I’ll be back, and review.<br />I do think this is pricey for the Amount, or is it the name

I honestly don't know if this silica supplement will do all the wonderful things as advertised on the product page. I bought a big, 4 or 5 pound box of diatomaceous earth about 5 years ago and am still working my way through it. It's supposed to contain a high concentration of silica from ancient organisms that died a long time ago. However, I use it mostly in my garden now. Silica is supposed to help a lot with skin, and joint problems and that was the original reason I bought it but now I've found another supplement that works so well (Golden Paste - please google it!) that I stopped using the silica. However, I think Dr. Mercola's Silica Collagen Builder is probably a very good supplement.
