Euro Pharma Trica-Sil
Trica-Sil™ is an aqueous extract of Horsetail providing silica through a patented extraction method, filtering out the insoluble parts that are abrasive and harmful. It is entirely soluble and 100% absorbable. Trica-Sil™ provides organic silica, flavonoids, and trace minerals (from the sea), bound to marine lipids. Trica-Sil™ enhances the adherence and absorption of calcium into bone tissue and has a positive effect on collagen metabolism, and supports health hair, skin and nails.

Several clinical studies have proven its effectiveness in supporting healthy bone mineralization.*

The special, high purity silica contained in Trica-Sil™ is significantly more bioavailable than standard horsetail or crystallized mineralsilica. Trica-Sil™ has been recommended by pharmacists and physicians inEurope for over 15 years as a natural medicine to support healthy bonedevelopment as well as healthy hair, skin, and beautiful nails.

The Benefits of Silica
Silica is a crucial trace mineral found in bones and fast growing tissues suchas hair, skin, and nails, which are especially dependent on silica for strengthand resilience. It’s also a major building block of collagen, which helps keepskin supple and blood vessels strong. Additionally, Trica-Sil™ increasescalcium absorption into bones by 50%.



Why is Trica-Sil™ Superior?
A specialized process binds the silica in Trica-Sil™ to marine phospholipids.Phospholipids are natural substances that are found in the skin and cellmembranes. They can be used to help carry nutrients that are usually poorlyabsorbed (such as silica) to the areas of the body where they are neededmost. Combining silica with phospholipids results in a silica that is virtually100% bioavailable, unlike any other silica product on the market.Trica-Sil™ provides proven benefits. It was shown in a scientific study todeliver a 50% increase in bone calcium absorption. In a clinical trial,women using Trica-Sil™ experienced a 15% improvement in bone health.1Physicians in Europe have used Trica-Sil™ to promote bone formation andsupport healthy bone mineralization in the hands, legs, spine, and teeth/jawswith consistently positive results.* Trica-Sil™ is ideal for use with acalcium-containing supplement such as OsteoStrong™.

1. A double-blind placebo-controlled monocentric randomized hospital study over 12 months on65 postmenopausal women evaluated the stimulating effects of bone mineralization by a bionaturalsilica formula. Data unpublished.


How Trica-Sil™ Maximizes Calcium
Trica-Sil™ increases the incorporation of calcium into the bone which supports a healthy balance of calcium retention. The longer you hold on to calcium in your bones, the longer you retain strong, healthy bones.This positive effect can also be extended to all supporting tissues(tendons, hair, teeth, skin and nails, etc).
