				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>What is Diatomaceous Earth?</h1>
<p><a href="http://www.whatissilica.com"><img class="size-full wp-image-216 alignleft" title="diatomaceous-earth-in-home" src="http://www.whatissilica.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/diatomaceous-earth-in-home.jpg" alt="" width="263" height="175" /></a>Also called diatomite, diatomaceous earth is a natural sedimentary rock made from fossilized remains of hard-shelled algae called diatoms. It can easily be crumbled into a white powder. Particles of diatomaceous earth average in size between ten to two hundred micrometers. It is quite light, has an abrasive feel similar to pumice, and is highly porous. Diatomaceous earth contains about 90% silica, 4% alumina, and around 2% iron oxide.</p>
<h1></h1>
<h1>Health Benefits of Diatomaceous Earth</h1>
<p>Diatomaceous earth contains fifteen natural minerals, which are good for the body, especially the skin, nails, and hair. With its mildly abrasive properties, diatomaceous earth acts as a “sweeper” to rid the body of mucus, molds and other impurities on the intestinal wall, thus cleansing the digestive tract. Silica also helps rid the body of intestinal worms and parasites more effectively than other types of de-wormers.</p>
<p>Although the human body contains high amounts of silica during youth, the level tends to deplete rapidly as the individual ages. Food-grade silica is water-soluble and easily excreted. Therefore it is important to replace it daily using diatomaceous earth.</p>
<p>Other benefits of the silica include lower cholesterol and blood pressure, relief from arthritis, regular digestive functions, and increased energy. Moreover, diatomaceous earth helps rid the body of trace metals, which may be harmful, including mercury from seafood and heavy metal contamination from cookware or utensils. These various benefits of the compound provides a boost to the body’s immune system.</p>
<p>Note that when utilizing diatomaceous earth for cleansing your body, it is important to strictly consume only food-grade diatomaceous earth, which is safe and free of any harmful impurities.</p>
<h1>Nature and Benefits of Silalive Silica Supplement</h1>
<p>Silalive is a silica supplement derived from diatomaceous earth in powder form. The particles comprising the powder have been micronized and rendered highly soluble in liquid, thus enabling it to penetrate cells easily. As a result of this unique process, Silalive is able to cleanse and detoxify your body of impurities extremely effectively, eliminating bacteria, parasites, fats, metals, and other toxins. This cleansing enables it to prevent diseases and blood poisoning, making it your best defense against environmental pollution.</p>
<p>Silalive also helps your body absorb important nutrients from your diet or other beneficial nutritional supplements. Consequently, you will enjoy higher levels of energy and immunity. Furthermore, Silalive prevents the multiplication of harmful cells and helps repair damaged cells and tissues to maintain their healthy condition.</p>
<p>Silalive is 100% natural and works well with other medications or supplements. It is safe for pregnant women, although lower dosages are recommended. It has no known side effects.</p>
<h1>How to Use Silalive Silica Supplement</h1>
<p>The suggested daily dosage is one to two tablespoons in two cups of water. This relatively large amount of fluid enables you to immediately experience Silalive’s amazing effects. Silalive is tasteless and odorless, so you can even mix it in your favorite beverage. Individual conditions vary, so you should give Silalive adequate time to do its job. Typically benefits should be observed after about 10-14 days of continuous use.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2><span id="more-1"></span>All Natural Silica Mineral</h2>
<p>Research of silica as an essential mineral has lead to the element being inked to many functions within the human body. These include:</p>
<p>• Greater calcium absorption leading to stronger bones<br />
• Support of connective tissues such as the muscles, ligaments, and joints<br />
• Stronger teeth and healthier gums<br />
• Removal of plaque on artery and vein walls, creating more elastic and healthier cardiovascular system<br />
• Gastrointestinal support when the tissues lining the GI tract are weakened or damaged<br />
• Promotes strong and healthy skin, hair, and nails<br />
• Stimulation of tissue regrowth essential to wound healing<br />
• Aids in elimination of aluminum which has been sited as a carcinogenic and is the third most common element found on the planet</p>
<p>Research has shown that humans are born with silica as one of the most plentiful elements within the tissue and cells of the body. A common theory is that it is in direct correlation to the production of collagen within the body. Collagen is the most abundant protein found in mammals, a lack of collagen can be seen as the effects of aging on the body. The symptoms include:</p>
<p>• Joint deterioration or pain<br />
• Osteoporosis, or brittle bones<br />
• Atherosclerosis, hardening of the arteries<br />
• Organ or tissue atrophy<br />
• Dry, wrinkled skin<br />
• Difficulty with digestion<br />
• Tooth or gum disorders</p>
<p>The level of silica has been reported to decrease as the body ages and becomes less able to absorb this essential mineral. The natural decline results in a more rapid manifestation of age related problems.</p>
<p>Silica can be found in foods such as onions, whole grains, green leafy vegetables, and rice. Unfortunately, the average diet is lacking in these foods in the appropriate proportions which results in a more rapid decline of silica levels in the body. The lower silica in turn leads to the body becoming more susceptible to infection and general poor health or age related appearance.</p>
<p>With the combination of limited food sources and poor menu selections, it makes it important to find a reliable natural silica mineral supplement. By keeping a higher level of silica in the body a number of health related issues can be prevented.</p>
<p>When considering a natural supplement it is always important to speak with a health care provider to prevent dangerous interactions with medications or possible health complications</p>
