About Silicea Gastrointestinal Gel
Silicea Gastrointestinal Gel...the emergency relief in your medicine cabinet!
Silicea Gastrointestinal Gel contains high concentrations of silica which consequently forms large molecular complexes having a great ability to bind with other compounds.
In effect, the molecular complexes act as a sponge and can therefore attract pathogens and other toxins which are thus absorbed and excreted naturally allowing the gastrointestinal tract to recover and not be subjected to further trauma.
The Gel's composition is purely mineral and does not contain any chemical preservatives and is thus also suitable for children.

What Causes IBS?
There are a number of factors which are thought to contribute to the development of IBS. These include:
Diet - food intolerances, allergies and a diet poor in fibre are believed to cause IBS.
Stress - Stress can not only aggravate the symptoms of IBS but they are also believed to be potential triggers for the start of it.
Psychological Factors - Anxiety and/or depression can often give rise to IBS in persons affected by these conditions.
Neurological Disorder of the Intestinal System - IBS can often be due to a malfunction in the communication between the intestine's neural system and its muscles. Normal intestinal stimuli are misinterpreted as pain stimuli and consequently, abdominal pain can start shortly after eating a meal.
