Why everyone should drink silicon-rich mineral water

Why everyone should drink silicon-rich mineral water

Tap water contains very low levels of dissolved silicon or silicic acid (more often referred to as silica).

Over the last 10 years, different scientific teams  have been looking into the effectiveness of drinking water high in silicon to help remove aluminium from the body. Aluminium is a toxin which has been strongly linked to the development of Alzheimer’s as well as other human diseases including Parkinson’s disease and Multiple Sclerosis. 

 Unfortunately, aluminium is found widely in our environment. We live in the ‘aluminium age’ and our bodies accumulate it over time, especially in our brains.

In  clinical trials has been found, involving both healthy individuals and individuals with disease, is that drinking around a litre of silicon-rich mineral water every day can speed up the removal of toxic aluminium from the body via the kidneys and ultimately urine. In fact, these studies showed that individuals  experienced significant reductions in their body burden of aluminium, including falls of up to 70% in one case, over a 12 week period.

Silicon-rich mineral water help to remove aluminium from the body because they are actually rich in soluble silicon or silicic acid. This form of silicon immediately follows water molecules through the gut wall and into the bloodstream  where it forms a complex with aluminium called an hydroxyaluminosilicate. This form of aluminium can be easily filtered from the blood by the kidney. Hence, silicon-rich mineral waters increase the excretion of aluminium in the urine. 

We encourage everyone to drink more silicon-rich mineral water in their daily lives. What you need to look for is a minimum concentration of over 20 mg/L or 20 ppm written as ‘silica’ on the label.
