Mesoporosil® Silicium FAQs
Discover our most frequently asked questions on everything Mesoporosil® Silicium
MESOPOROSIL® is a dry powder made from mesoporous silica, designed to release high levels of Silicium. It is suitable for use in beautyceuticals, nutraceuticals, and cosmeceuticals.
The name comes from its structure—mesoporous silica, a micron-sized particle with a porous network.
Silicium promotes healthy aging by building collagen and stimulating connective tissues like skin, hair, nails, joints, and bones.
Yes. Studies have demonstrated bioavailability through EX-VIVO (Ussing), pre-clinical (2021), and clinical (2023) IN-VIVO studies focusing on bone and skin health.
MESOPOROSIL® transforms into OSA (Ortho Silicic Acid) after ingestion—OSA is the only bioavailable form. MESOPOROSIL® offers the same benefits as liquid OSA with added convenience and stability in solid form.
The digestive system transforms the mesoporous silica into OSA. The patented process ensures the powder is soluble and bioavailable.
It’s MESOPOROSIL® enhanced with stabilizers and bulking agents (70/30 ratio) for improved processability in manufacturing.
Triple A = Activated solubility, Absorbed OSA, and Assimilation into plasma. Certified by Eytelia, it confirms solubility, bioavailability, and absorption.
MESOPOROSIL® outperforms traditional SiO₂ in solubility and absorption. Competitor products often add OSA to carriers like maltodextrin or collagen, but MESOPOROSIL® naturally achieves high bioavailability.
To overcome manufacturing issues like dust, flowability, electrostatic charging, and compressibility while preserving Si release.
Yes. All are food and pharma compliant, supported by a regulatory assessment (RA).
Standard SiO₂ is insoluble. MESOPOROSIL® is triple A certified—soluble, absorbable, and bioavailable.
Contains four EFSA/FDA/TGA/Anvisa-approved ingredients. Considered a physical mix of compliant components.
Mineral-based.
Morning (with breakfast) for fastest absorption. A split dose (morning/evening) is also effective.
Tablets & mini-tablets
Hard & soft gel capsules
Sachets/stick packs
Gummies (matrix-dependent)
Powders & premix
Beverages & collagen shots (LQ format)
Subcutaneous injectables (specific protocol)
Toothpaste (with development partner)
100mg (up to 12mg assimilated Silicium)
50mg (with other actives)
100mg (bone health support)30mg of MESOPOROSIL® yields 14mg elemental Silicium, delivering approx. 10mg to the body.
Based on 30 years of clinical experience. 3–6mg/day shows results; 6–12mg/day is optimal.
Shelf life: 24 months (extendable to 36 months with testing)
Stability verified via long-term studies
Reduces wrinkles, improves skin elasticity & firmness
Strengthens nails and hair (gloss, thickness, volume)
Aids bone healing & remineralization
Yes.
Both.
Depends on the country:e.g., SiO₂, Silica, Silicon Dioxide, Hydrated colloidal silica, Triple A silicium.
Yes, requires a Trade Mark License Agreement (TMLA).
No. Approved under EFSA as Silicon Dioxide.
No. Statement available upon request.
Yes. Synergistic with D3, K2, Calcium, etc. Can also enhance solubility of other actives. Consideration needed for antioxidants.
Yes. MESOPOROSIL® LQ format is fully soluble and effective in liquids.
Effective across pH levels. Unlike standard OSA, it is not pH-dependent.
Absorbed in the small intestine (primarily the ileum).
Absorption depends on gut health. Silicium may help improve gut lining integrity. Combining with probiotics or glutamate is recommended.
No specific liver toxicity studies required. MESOPOROSIL® is compliant under the FDA silica monograph umbrella.
