2-pack value set: Silicon from bamboo extract with zinc - 117 mg silicon per daily dose (1 capsule) - 2 x 60 capsules - from Unimedica

Unimedica silicon-from-bamboo-extract capsules with zinc contain 117 mg of silicon and 3 mg of zinc per capsule.

Silicon is a trace element that naturally occurs in the body, for example in connective tissue, the skin and the bones. It is also found in many foods, such as potatoes, peas, bananas and grapes. It is not present in meat and dairy products. If fruit, cereals and vegetables are almost entirely absent from the daily diet, silicon may eventually be lacking too.

Silicon deficiency can manifest, among other things, as brittle nails and hair. If a silicon deficiency is present, supplementary intake may be advisable. Unimedica's silicon capsules are produced from bamboo extract. They are purely plant‑based and natural. Dried bamboo can reach a peak silicon content of up to 46%.

The Unimedica silicon capsules also contain zinc. Zinc is an essential trace element. The body cannot produce it and can hardly store it. Zinc helps to maintain normal hair, skin and nails, is important for the immune system and is involved in many vital processes and functions in the body. It also supports vision and the acid‑base balance.
