Gastrointestinal disorders use usually caused by irritants and by harmful and toxic substances as well as pathogens. When the gastrointestinal tract is disturbed by such toxic substances and pathogens, it could result in disorders such as heartburn, reflux and vomiting as well as nausea, abdominal pain, bowel discomfort, diarrhoea and flatulence which may be symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). As a result, the digestive tract cannot function normally and this may lead to physical discomfort.
The advantage of silicolgel exists in the large and highly reactive surface of silicic acid. When taken internally, it forms a protective and soothing coating over the lining of the stomach and intestines. Due to the adsorptive or binding properties of colloidal silicic acid, it physically adsorbs or binds most irritants and harmful and toxic substances as well as pathogens. This renders them harmless so that they can be removed naturally through the intestines and out of the body. Silicic acid can also bind gases and reduce excess acidity. This can reduce flatulence.
- Shake bottle well before every use.
- Take silicolgel at least 1 hour before or after the intake of medicines.
- To treat gastrointestinal disorders, take 1 tablespoonful (15 ml) of silicolgel three times daily, preferably before meals.
- Silicolgel should only be used for children under 12 following medical advice.
- Silicolgel can be taken either undiluted or diluted with water. After acute symptoms ease, treatment with silicolgel can continue for another few days.
- Silicolgel also alleviates similar symptoms in the gastrointestinal tract that may occur due to a change in diet during travel or on holiday.
- If acute symptoms have not reduced after three days, consult a doctor.
- With diarrhoea, it is necessary to replace lost fluids. In chronic disorders, treat for up to 4 weeks.
Shake bottle well before every use.
