Silicon balance in human volunteers; a pilot study to establish the variance in silicon excretion versus intake

BACKGROUND: Accumulating evidence suggests a role for silicon in optimal connective tissue health. Further proof of its importance/essentiality may be provided by studies involving imposed depletion followed by (29)Si challenge to estimate metabolic balance. Prior to conducting these expensive studi...
