Knowing what’s in the food you eat, the beverages you consume, and the supplements you take is critical to your health and wellness. A clear understanding of product ingredients can help you make informed choices as you strive for proper nutrition while also staying away from ingredients that may negatively affect your health. When it comes to supplements, especially, consumers should be extra vigilant in choosing safe products from manufacturers who are transparent about their manufacturing and quality testing.
What Is Silicon Dioxide in Supplements?
Silicon dioxide is a naturally occurring compound found in minerals and certain plants. The food industry, as well as the supplement industry, commonly uses silicon dioxide in products as an anti-caking agent to prevent clumping. The compound is generally considered safe as long as it is manufactured correctly and used in appropriate amounts. Studies show that silicon dioxide has a low toxicity, even when consumed in large amounts. It is also poorly absorbed, meaning that the body doesn’t absorb much of the compound when present.
Despite the recognized safety of silicon dioxide in food and supplement products, many consumers prefer products without artificial ingredients and fillers, instead choosing products with natural, whole ingredients.
Some common supplement fillers that consumers should watch for include:
- Microcrystalline cellulose: used for stabilization and volume in product manufacturing
- Magnesium stearate: a flow agent used to help prevent sticking
- Potassium sorbate: used for preservation
- Maltodextrin: a binder that also serves as a sweetener
- Carrageenan: makes products easier to mix
While these fillers are generally considered safe, they are often linked to sensitivities and potentially harmful side effects.
Why ASEA Redox Is Formulated Without Silicon Dioxide
While silicon dioxide is generally considered safe in supplements, we chose to formulate ASEA Redox without silicon dioxide. Ultimately, silicon dioxide is unnecessary to the formulation and purpose of ASEA Redox.
The philosophy behind ASEA Redox is to use clean, simple ingredients combined with patented technology to support cellular communication. In order to achieve this, ASEA maintains a focus on quality and safety throughout the entire manufacturing process. With human energy, vitality, and well-being as our ultimate goal, ASEA reviews and tests each product every step of the way, including enlisting a third-party laboratory to confirm absolute quality.
Redox vs Traditional Supplements: Purity That Goes Beyond The Label
While most ordinary dietary supplements provide nutrients that the body doesn’t synthesize, the biological deficiencies caused by aging and cellular breakdown go deeper than just nutrition. As stress, diet, air quality, and other environmental factors cause cellular breakdown over time, the body’s naturally supplied balance of redox signaling molecules is compromised, creating a need for supplemental redox molecules like those found in ASEA Redox.
Some of the key benefits of ASEA Redox include:
- Support of cellular health and normal immune function
- Maintenance of healthy circulation and vascular function
- Support of mental clarity and reduction of oxidative stress
- Maintenance of healthy energy and mood signaling
- Support of digestive enzyme activity and nutrient uptake
Unlike traditional supplements, ASEA Redox relies on pure, natural ingredients that support the body. However, the power of ASEA Redox extends beyond its label, thanks to the redox signaling molecules that help support improved cell communication and enhanced health.
