R-SILICIUM (support tendons & cartilage)

Silicium is the second most common element in the world (making up 27%of the Earth’s crust). It is an elementary building block in all rocks and minerals, but it is also an important nutrient for humans and animals. The two main benefits of silicium are skin health and bone health. Focusing on bone health for a moment, it is important to note that silicium is needed to synthesize collagen. It actually has a dual function: it preserves the structure of connective tissue fibers and stimulates cell division for the production of new connective tissues. This means it is very important for the bones, tendons, cartilage, ligaments, as well as other connective tissues.
