What type of calcium is used ?

Hi... First, Solgar's Oceanic Silica (from Red Algae) only has 200 mg of calcium, which is only 15% of the RDA. The bottle does not state what type or source of that calcium, but does state on the front of the bottle 'Dairy Free'. You could get in touch with Solgar, Inc. 500 Willow Tree Rd., Leonia, NJ 07605 or phone 877-SOL-GAR4 (877-765-4274). Hope this helps you...

does this cause acne or oily skin?

Hi Kekoa, this product contains silica & a small amount of calcium (from red algae), which are minerals, not an oil at all. If you are unsure, maybe check with your Doctor.

Silica on the market is over, when will there be more? It's missing from all the sites I searched.

Derived from oceanic red algae rather than horsetail, which is the silica source for all of the other brands I have used in the past. It is not advised to take horsetail long term because it contains thiaminase, which breaks down the vitamin thiamine (B1). A B1 deficiency has a negative impact on the heart, brain and nervous system. —Solgar has been around a long time, and it has a good reputation. It is located in New Jersey, and the company states that their product ingredients are sourced from the US and that their supplements are manufactured here. —Vegan friendly, using cellulose capsules rather than gelatin. I personally take silica as one of multiple supplements (calcium, magnesium, MK-7, D3, strontium, and boron) which synergistically promote bone health, but silica has many other benefits as well as that, including the following: —It promotes healthy hair, nails and skin. —It promotes healthy teeth. —It promotes healthy tendons and ligaments. —It enhances the immune system. —It supports pancreatic function. —It helps prevent cardiovascular disease by strengthening blood vessels and lowering high blood pressure. —It protects lung tissue. —It helps decrease swelling (edema) in the body. —It helps prevent kidney stones, heal infections in the urinary tract, and it is a natural diuretic. —It helps prevent or heal intestinal inflammation and prevent both diarrhea and constipation. —It helps heal hemorrhoids. —It helps heal infections of all types. —It helps with osteoarthritis and rheumatism. —It helps to strengthen nerve cells and connective tissue in the brain and spinal cord, which helps to prevent memory loss due to age and Alzheimer’s.

If this is made from red algae, does it contain iodine? Iodine should be avoided if you have certain thyroid conditions.

Our Oceanic Silica provides 108mg of Silica from Red Algae. While this formula does not have added Iodine, we do not test the finished product for any naturally occurring Iodine, and therefore we cannot give you an exact amount or confirm its presence. Apologies, Erin M. Solgar
