Produktinformationen
Silicon from bamboo extract with zinc capsules by Unimedica contain 117 mg silicon and 3 mg 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 present in many foods, e.g. potatoes, peas, bananas and grapes. In contrast, it is not found in meat and milk. If fruit, cereals and vegetables are largely absent from the daily diet, silicon can also become deficient in the long term.
Silicon deficiency may manifest itself in brittle nails and hair. If a silicon deficiency is present, supplementation may be recommended. The silicon capsules from Unimedica are made from bamboo extract. They are entirely plant-based and natural. Dried bamboo can reach a peak silicon content of up to 46%.
In addition, the silicon capsules from Unimedica 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.
