About this episode

Jared St. Clair explores the importance of silica for health, particularly in collagen production and bone strength.

In this Mighty Minerals episode, Jared takes a deep dive into silica's role in collagen production, connective tissue health, bone strength, cardiovascular wellness, and healthy aging. He explains why modern diets may provide less silica than previous generations, how aging can affect silica status, and why form matters when it comes to bioavailability. Jared also discusses common food sources, the impact of soil depletion and food processing, the relationship between silica and aluminum exposure, and the differences between bamboo silica, horsetail, and orthosilicic acid.
