Organic silicon for osteoarthritis



Osteoarthritis , we would all like to send you back there in time as much as possible . How can it be done? Choosing the right remedies to keep your joints supple .

In reality we should think of our whole body as an apparatus to keep away from stiffening and training to elasticity, including the brain!

Arthrosis? No thanks

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative disease that affects the joints, with progressive damage to the cartilage and the formation of indiscriminate bone tissue.

This process brings pain and limitation in movements, micro and macro. The affected bone portions are generally the hip and knee joint, the fingers and toes with more or less significant deformations.

It is easily understandable that with the wear of time, with age, osteoarthritis is an appointment that can be marked on everyone's agenda .

So why not take advantage of simple natural tools that allow us to keep our body in good condition and support the time that passes? A bit like we do with the car, with household appliances, we use remedies that can "de-scale" the joints, keep them clean and elastic and then say "arthrosis?" No thanks".

Organic silicon is exactly what can help joints remain efficient, to be taken in advance. Let's see what it is.

Organic silicon? Yes thanks

By organic silicon we mean a mineral present in our organism, in the skeletal apparatus, in the cardiovascular one, in the glandular one and in the tendons, involved in metabolic processes of cell turnover, for the elasticity of the connective tissue, of the venous walls, of the membranes .

Silicon becomes an indispensable element whose consumption by absorption increases more and more with age and if not properly integrated it is insufficient to support the functionality of our structure.

In particular the skeletal apparatus, in the case of silicon deficiency, sees bone weakening, increased porosity, cartilaginous fragility, articular thickening, but also circulatory, weakening of the teeth and hair.

We easily understand the importance of this element and fortunately nature makes it available to us both through nutrition, and through truly valuable supplements.

It is an easily absorbable mineral, it does not present dangers of overdose, indeed it does not manifest side effects or contraindications and therefore we can prevent or delay the appointment with osteoarthritis.

To tell the truth, EFSA and the whole scientific world does not pronounce itself on the real healing virtues of silicon, in fact it is not classified as a medicine, but as a supplement, therefore it can be easily purchased in herbal medicine and in shops that deal with natural products.

Sources of silicon

How can we source silicon? On the market there are specific supplements of organic silicon, to remineralise bone density , to counter osteoarthritis , to elasticize the cartilage and to strengthen hair and nails .

The intake of organic silicon promotes the absorption of vitamin D.

There are interesting shares of silicon in potatoes , onions , oats and whole grains in general, in cauliflower , in fruit peel .

In herbal medicine we can use standardized silicon horsetail, useful in case of osteoporosis, arthrosis. It has diuretic properties and is effective in reducing the presence of uric acid, so it can also be used to prevent the formation of kidney stones, if of that constitution.
