An abundant mineral in the earth’s crust, silicea has a profound cleansing effect on the body. Silicea helps the body to expel or root out congestions and irritants, and eliminate non-functional matter. Silicea is used to help push foreign objects to the surface (think splinters), and is also useful for blocked tear ducts and salivary glands. Silicea may also be helpful when trying to manage conditions such as boils and abscesses.
