Ionic Liquid Boron Silica Drops

At Smidge®, we always want to encourage and empower our customers to get their nutrients from real food first. Boron levels in U.S. soils can vary significantly depending on the region. And modern farming and food processing can reduce the silica content in food. Ionic Liquid Boron Silica Drops are a gentle way to supplement in addition to the fresh foods on your plate.

We source our boron from salt flats in desert areas and the silica comes from sand deposits, both in America. We also craft this small-batch supplement in the U.S.

Our minerals are naturally derived from the earth. They're gently cleaned and then blended with deionized water so they disburse. 

Yes. 😊 It’s free of the following common allergens:  milk/casein, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, gluten and soybeans. No artificial colors, flavors, GMOs or preservatives. 

Because there’s no official recommended intake of boron, it’s tough to pinpoint the exact symptoms of boron deficiency.  

Some researchers state that inadequate boron intake may lead to issues with bone development, growth and healing.* 

Symptoms of boron deficiency also align with those of vitamin D deficiency, suggesting that boron may interact with the skeletal system through vitamin D metabolism.* 

At the same time, small doses of boron under the guidance of a qualified healthcare practitioner can be beneficial for health maintenance, even without symptoms of boron deficiencies.* So if you think you may be deficient, or if you’re looking to garner the benefits of the mineral boron, Smidge® is well-absorbed and utilized in the body because it’s natural, so you don’t need much. 😊

You can find boron in many yummy, whole foods, including: 

• Raisins 
• Avocado 
• Brazil nuts 
• Prunes 
• Apricots 
• Beans 
• Legumes 
• Dried fruits 

Look for organic or local sources to ensure the best care is taken to grow these foods and reap the nutritional benefits. 

Approximately 0.38 teaspoons of diatomaceous earth are needed to supply 313 mg of silica, assuming the diatomaceous earth contains 85% silica. 

Our Boron Silica Drops are in total alignment with the Root Cause Protocol (RCP), as boron is a key mineral in Morley Robbins’ program to rebalance key minerals in the body. The silica in this blend enhances the absorption of the boron.* Compared to the protocol’s suggested borax for boron (used as an insect pesticide) or diatomaceous earth for silica (abrasive to the gut), Smidge® is the cleanest, purest and safest way to get your food-grade boron and silica.* It also makes for easy dosing, compared to borax, which is dosed via a scoop that can get messy.  

When a mineral is ionic, it means it has a positive or negative charge and can readily bond with water to be more easily distributed throughout the body. Charged minerals, particularly electrolytes, also help maintain electrical gradients across cell membranes. 

Deionized water — also called DI water, or demineralized water — is water that has had ions removed. Ions are molecules with a positive or negative electrical charge. In water, they appear as dissolved mineral salts. 

We deionize the water in Smidge® Ionic Liquid Boron Silica Drops, so the naturally occurring minerals in the water do not compete with the nutritional value of the boron and silica. 

Distilled water has been boiled to create purified water free of contaminants and impurities, like chlorine and dissolved solids. Deionized (DI) water, like distilled water, is also pure. Where they differ is that deionized water has had all the dissolved mineral particles removed from it. 

Our Ionic Liquid Boron Silica Drops and Morning Magnesium are safe and beneficial to take together, especially since all of the minerals, including the boron in both products, are naturally derived and gentle.* We recommend running it by your healthcare practitioner, as individual boron needs can vary.

Yes. 😊 Smidge® Boron Silica and Deep Ocean Liquid Magnesium help with the absorption of boron and magnesium, as minerals help minerals absorb into the body. Our liquid mineral products are gentle, easy to use, and they can be taken together for maximum absorption and benefit of all minerals.

We tested Smidge® Ionic Liquid Boron Silica Drops for purity. So they’re free of preservatives, including citric acid, polysorbate 80 and potassium sorbate.*
