Facial Signs of Silica Deficiency

Have you ever asked yourself why some people develop wrinkles while others seem to have only a few and look a lot younger than their age?

The reason could be hidden in their Silica intake and their body’s ability to absorb this wonderful mineral!

According to David Card, author of the book “Facial diagnosis of cell salt deficiencies,” wrinkles on someone’ s face are a sign of Silica deficiency. This mineral salt plays a very important role in the development of the connective tissue that lies beneath the skin called the dermis.

A silica deficiency is most commonly seen as:

1. Wrinkles in front of and parallel to the ears.

2. Wrinkles around the eyes, called laugh lines and crow’s feet.

3. Sunken eyes in the orbit cavity giving the look of droopy eyelids.

4. Weak nails.

5. Spitting hair ends.

6. Facial acne.

The good news is that in younger people this deficiency can be reversed by supplementing with Silica 6X in cell salt preparation within a few months. The results also will depend on other nutrients intake and the ability of the body to absorb them. Drinking lots of water and have plenty of anti-oxidants (like zinc, vitamin E, C and A) is a also a wonderful way to address premature age of the skin.
