Everything you need to know about the product: Silica + Biotin
SILICA: NATURAL RESOURCE
Silica is considered a true natural beauty product. Even our ancestors used this natural remedy to alleviate a variety of ailments, such as skin diseases and hair loss. Silica is obtained from the deposition of diatoms in the soil. These microscopic algae are found in all bodies of water on Earth. After the algae die, a thick layer of their non-degradable shells remains as silica. The most important component of this lime-like substance is silicon (a component of silicic acid). This trace element is, alongside oxygen, the most abundant element on Earth and is used by nature whenever connective tissue needs to be built. Plants absorb it from the soil through their roots. Humans can also benefit from this mineral. Along with biotin, silicon supports the formation of strong finger joints, the growth of shiny hair, and the development of firm skin. Silicon is also involved in the formation of bone and cartilage tissue. With increasing age and with an unbalanced diet, the silicon content in the body decreases, and the tone and elasticity of the connective tissue decreases. Therefore, silicon must be ingested through food. Sources of silicon, such as whole grain products and vegetables, should be regularly included in your diet. However, since many vital nutrients are lost through industrial processing of foods, supplementing with silica in the form of capsules or powder is recommended.
LOOK AT THE SOUL'S FINGERS – READ YOUR FINGERNAILS
What the nails show
Age spots are generally harmless. They develop with age. Sometimes they are congenital. However, individual furrows can also indicate skin diseases or rheumatoid arthritis.
White spots or dots often result from minor falls or injuries. They are generally harmless.
Spoon nails: If the nail plate is dented like a spoon and bent upwards at the front, iron deficiency, vitamin C deficiency or a thyroid or metabolic disorder is suspected.
Chipping nail edges: Similar to brittle nails. Also keratinization disorders caused by zinc and vitamin B deficiencies.
Yellow, crumbly nails: Beware, nail fungus. Highly contagious. Must be treated.
Pinhead-sized grooves: Intruders can indicate the onset of psoriasis.
Cross-shaped ridges can indicate an iron or biotin deficiency. They can also indicate poisoning or liver, kidney, or intestinal disorders. If the ridges do not disappear, a doctor should be consulted.
Soft, brittle nails: If not caused by chemicals, nail polish, or nail polish remover, it may be due to a deficiency of biotin, iron, or calcium, or a thyroid dysfunction.
There are many other manifestations. Changes in color and shape that cannot be attributed to other influences should be shown to a doctor. This applies especially to brown-black or yellow-white nail changes, or nail plates that are completely or partially peeling off. Along with the face and hair, fingernails are also an important public feature. They convey feelings such as affection and sympathy to others. Nails play a major role in the impression people make on others. As early as 1844, the Frankfurt neurologist Heinrich Hoffmann described what can be seen on the fingers in his children's book "Struwwelpeter." In rebellion against his parents, Struwwelpeter no longer allows his nails to be cut. Even today, unkempt fingernails are a sign of self-neglect. If someone bites them, it is clear that they have serious problems. Long, polished fingers still symbolize women who do not have to work with their hands. But such things have become so natural to us that we no longer even think about them. We cut, file, or paint our nails without paying much attention to them. Yet it's worth "looking at the soul," because much about the state of our body and soul can be read from our nails.
NAILS: THE “PROTECTIVE ARMOR OF THE FINGERS”
Like hair, nails grow continuously. Nails grow an average of three millimeters per month. Under certain circumstances, they grow faster, for example when recovering from an injury or with an overactive thyroid. Nails therefore clearly indicate a person's physical condition. Like hair, which can also tell us a lot about a person's health, nails are made of a horny substance called keratin. Keratin is produced by the cells of the nail bed, to which the nail is firmly fused. The nail looks like a dense network of hairs that are nourished by small thorns. The underside of the nail plate is slightly fused to the finger, and the nail root extends somewhat deeper into the finger. Not only are the fingertips crisscrossed by numerous nerves and veins, which make the fingers so sensitive and also sensitive to pain, but the nail root and the underside of the nail plate are also closely connected to the circulatory system and the nervous system.
Physical illnesses can impair blood supply and nerve function. This has a visible impact on the fingers, particularly on their growth. Depending on the type of illness, various changes occur in the finger joints. They can alter their shape, color, or stability. Poisoning can leave its mark, as can severe infections, metabolic disorders, or rheumatic diseases. Even emotional trauma can leave its mark.
WHAT DOCTORS SEE
Healthy fingernails appear pink, are undamaged, free of impurities, and grow normally into their nail beds. If you notice changes in your fingers, this doesn't necessarily indicate disease. Heavy smoking, the use of nail polish and nail polish remover, and everyday influences such as minor injuries, contact with chemicals, frequent contact with water, or typing on keyboards can also leave their mark.
A deficiency in certain minerals or vital substances is also a common cause of changes. For example, taking silica and biotin can reduce the risk of calloused fingers. If you notice any changes in your nails, inform your family doctor, dermatologist, or alternative practitioner.
WHAT SPIRITUAL PEOPLE SEE
There is another way to gain information from the fingers. Like the lines on the palm of the hand, fingernail gels also tell spiritual people something about the person in question. Unlike the medical perspective, fingernail gels here don't so much indicate the state of nutritional intake, such as deficiencies, poisoning, mistakes, or illnesses. Rather, they provide spiritual people with information about the state of the experiences a person has had in their life, both mentally and physically. Since nutrition, in the broadest sense, is also an experience that we and our bodies have, medical and spiritual perspectives are not as far apart as one might think. According to this idea, the nerves also reflect fate or an inner program that a person follows. According to this theory, each hand (left or right) and each finger has a specific meaning. Depending on which finger a sign is visible, its meaning can be interpreted. Together with the period over which the fingernail grows, this not only allows one to interpret the past but also to predict the future with pinpoint accuracy, according to "fingernail readers." The left hand represents the unconscious program that people follow, while the right hand represents implementation and action. Here are some examples of interpretation, which, however, can be interpreted differently by each spiritual "nail interpreter."
READ FROM THE PALM
Dimples: Small, inward-facing dimples represent upcoming decisions. Depending on which finger and hand they appear, they represent a decision that must be made within a certain period of time.
Deep transverse grooves: Short-term conflicts that, when repeated, develop into permanent grooves. They represent restructuring and upheaval. Once the grooves have grown, the conflicts become entrenched.
Transverse furrows develop into strong longitudinal furrows. They represent ideas that were not realized.
No grooves: People whose finger joints have neither longitudinal nor transverse grooves lead a life without major conflicts and challenges.
NUTRIENT RECOMMENDATIONS FOR YOUR FINGERNAILS
Silica: The silicon from silicic acid helps against burning fingernails.
Biotin: It strengthens the nails and counteracts burning nails.
Vitamin B complex: A deficiency can lead to brittle nails, so care should be taken to ensure an adequate supply of vitamin B.
Calcium: It can strengthen nails.
Vitamin C: A good supply of vitamin C supports nail health.
Iron: Chronic iron deficiency can lead to weak, flat, or twisted nails, or brittle fingernails.
Zinc: Zinc is important for healthy and strong nails. White spots can be eliminated by taking zinc. Zinc deficiency leads to horizontal wrinkles, known as Beau's lines.
Coenzyme Q10 supports the skin's ability to regenerate. The skin on the hands, in particular, is particularly exposed to solar radiation. As a radical scavenger, Q10 supports the skin's defenses.
Borage is an excellent source of polyunsaturated fatty acids, which are important for the formation of new skin cells.
Krill oil contains important nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids and astaxanthin, which can support nail health. Omega-3 fatty acids help reduce inflammation in the body, which can help prevent brittle and brittle nails. Astaxanthin, in turn, can promote blood circulation and cellular metabolism, which can lead to stronger and healthier nails.
FOR SKIN AND HAIR
A daily intake of silica and biotin makes an important contribution to strengthening nails from within. Silica is a natural product and is extracted from the shells of diatoms. Together with the B vitamin biotin, it provides important building blocks for skin and hair and can thus support beauty from within. Silica is a natural product and is considered a true beauty product from nature. It is extracted from the shell tissue of diatoms and provides us with silicon, which is so valuable for our nails. This supports the body in the formation, growth, and strengthening of nails. Biotin is a water-soluble vitamin that belongs to the B vitamin group. Because it is also involved in hair renewal and supporting skin structure, it is also known as vitamin H (H = skin, hair).
Good to know: Silica + Biotin combines very well with the products in the beauty range. Be patient, as nails grow slowly! Complete nail renewal can take up to six months. We therefore recommend long-term use of Silica + Biotin.

Silica + Biotin – for beautiful skin and shiny hair
Beauty and charisma
Silica + Biotin – for beautiful skin and shiny hair. We've long known: true beauty comes from within. Besides a good character and a friendly temperament, there are, of course, other physical characteristics that are commonly considered attractive: a smooth, radiant complexion, shiny hair, and strong, shimmering fingernails, for example. To keep you looking your best, an adequate supply of the B vitamin biotin and silica is extremely helpful. Brittle and fragile nails, thin and split hair, and dry and gray skin are often symptoms of a biotin deficiency.
Beauty substance biotin aka vitamin H
Biotin, or vitamin H, is a component of many key metabolic enzymes and plays an important role in the renewal of nails, skin, and hair. Because it promotes their healthy growth, it is also called "vitamin H." The trace element silicon, which is abundant in silica, in turn gives your skin's connective tissue firmness and elasticity. With silica and biotin, you're accessing the two "beauty substances" par excellence.
You ask – we answer
What exactly is silica?
Silicais a carefully purified natural product derived from primordial ocean deposits and is considered a true beauty product from within. It is extracted from the shells of diatoms and contains abundant silicon. Silicon is a natural structural element. You can find it virtually anywhere a combination of strength and elasticity is achieved. Your body needs silicon in the connective tissue of skin, bones, cartilage, tendons, and vascular walls.
What exactly is biotin?
Biotinis also called vitamin B7 or popularly vitamin H and is part of the vitamin B complex. This water-soluble vitamin is found in every cell of the body because it is a component of many key metabolic enzymes. Biotin is involved in the synthesis and breakdown of fatty acids and the breakdown of amino acids. It is also a component of an enzyme that plays an important role in glucose metabolism: It ensures that the body always produces enough glucose so that even in a state of hunger there is enough glucose available from the body's own reserves for vital functions. Biotin also enables normal cell growth and is important for the nervous system and psychological functions. Alcohol and cigarette consumption or the use of certain medications (e.g. antibiotics) impair the body's biotin supply. Egg yolk is rich in biotin, whereas the avidin contained in raw egg white prevents the human body from absorbing biotin. Long-term consumption of raw eggs therefore leads to biotin deficiency.
Which foods contain a lot of biotin?
Liver, mushrooms, egg yolk, yeast, soybeans, nuts and oatmeal, among others, provide significant amounts of biotin.
How much biotin does my body need?
The German Nutrition Society (DGE) provides a table outlining the estimated levels of biotin intake depending on age. From the age of 15, the recommendation for both women and men is 30 to 60 µg.
What should I keep in mind when taking Silica + Biotin?
If you follow the recommended dosage, you can take Silica + Biotin long-term. However, pay attention to your body and seek medical advice before taking too much.
