Work since the 1930s on absorbable mineral and organic silica extracted from herbs like nettle showed irrefutably that organic silica could be described as an essential nutrient for both humans and other animals. In studies during the 1070s, it was found that silica supplementation aided bone and cartilage growth. In 1993, it was reported that treatment with silica could stimulate bone formation. By the 1990s, silica formulations were being used by some pharmaceutical companies on wound and burn dressings because it was recognized that silica healed wounds more quickly and could stabilize burns.
