"Ahh... syok!" We're all familiar with the refreshing feeling of taking a sip of natural mineral water.

But did you know that beyond quenching your thirst, natural mineral water contains minerals like silica that offer various health benefits?

For instance, silica is crucial for the production of collagen, the protein that provides structure, strength, and elasticity to our skin, hair, nails, and connective tissues¹. We are all born with high levels of silica, but as we age, these levels decline.

This is why it's essential to replenish our silica intake to support our body's natural processes, particularly for maintaining healthy, youthful skin².

In fact, silica stimulates the production of fibroblasts, making it a natural collagen booster¹!

Fibroblasts keep our skin firm and smooth. Moreover, silica helps stabilise collagen fibres, enhancing their strength and flexibility. This improves the skin's overall structure and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles¹.

Without enough silica, collagen production decreases, and the quality of collagen deteriorates, leading to sagging and wrinkles.

In case you didn't know, Spritzer Natural Mineral Water naturally contains a rich source of silica, giving you a refreshing unique 'Siliqa' experience with every sip
