Highly Soluble, Plant Based Silica for Collagen & Connective Tissue Support
BLOOSIL™ is an innovative plant-based silica derived from bamboo shoots and engineered for superior solubility and bioavailability.
Through advanced processing technology, bamboo-derived silica is transformed into a highly soluble, mesoporous, bioactivated solid form. This optimized structure enables BLOOSIL™ to provide plant-based silicon in a form that is well-suited for intestinal absorption.
Unlike conventional bamboo silica or standard silica excipients, BLOOSIL™ is specifically engineered to maintain silicon in its soluble, absorbable state beyond gastric breakdown. It remains bioavailable throughout intestinal transit, supporting efficient uptake and utilization where absorption primarily occurs.
Collagen is the most abundant structural protein in the body, but its synthesis, stabilization, and proper fiber organization depend in part on the availability of silicon (delivered nutritionally as silica). Silicon functions as a supportive cofactor in connective tissue metabolism and plays a role in maintaining the structural integrity of skin, hair, nails, bones, joints, tendons, and ligaments.
Key Benefits
By delivering bioavailable, plant-based silica, BLOOSIL™ reinforces collagen-focused formulations and supports applications across beauty-from-within, active nutrition, and healthy aging categories.
BLOOSIL™ is manufactured from carefully selected young bamboo using a patented process designed to optimize solubility. The naturally porous architecture of bamboo provides a structurally favorable silica matrix, which is further refined through advanced processing to enhance dissolution characteristics.
Through this structural optimization, bamboo-derived silica is converted into a mesoporous, highly soluble form that supports improved interaction within the intestinal environment. After gastric breakdown, the silicon remains in a soluble, absorbable state throughout intestinal transit—delivering a bioavailable form the body can efficiently utilize.
Compared to conventional plant-based silica sources such as generic bamboo, horsetail, or red algae—materials that are typically unmodified and exhibit limited solubility—BLOOSIL™ demonstrates significantly improved dissolution and absorption potential.
Key Advantages
Bamboo is considered a sustainable raw material due to its rapid growth rate, minimal water requirements, and lack of pesticide dependency. It helps reduce soil erosion, absorbs significant amounts of carbon dioxide, and can be harvested without killing the plant—allowing for natural regeneration. These attributes make bamboo a renewable, eco‑friendly alternative to more resource‑intensive materials.
BLOOSIL™ is sourced exclusively from controlled, certified organic bamboo farms, ensuring traceability, quality, and responsible cultivation. Bamboo is a highly sustainable raw material, growing rapidly with low water requirements and regenerating naturally after harvest without damaging its roots. Its extensive root system helps prevent soil erosion, and its fast growth captures significant carbon dioxide, making BLOOSIL™ a renewable and environmentally responsible source of plant-based silica.
Pre-clinical dissolution data demonstrated that BLOOSIL™ delivers significantly higher soluble silicon compared to standard bamboo silica extract. Over an 8-hour dissolution period at 37°C, BLOOSIL™ released up to 7.0 mg/L of silicon, while regular bamboo silica reached only 1.2 mg/L, showing roughly a 5x increase in bioavailable silicon.
Dissolution kinetics indicate that BLOOSIL™ achieves rapid initial release and maintains superior solubility throughout intestinal transit, attributable to its patented mesoporous, bioactivated structure derived from bamboo. These results highlight BLOOSIL™’s potential to efficiently support bone, joint, and beauty-from-within formulations by delivering silicon in a form readily absorbed by the body.

BLOOSIL™ delivers silica in a highly soluble, mesoporous form that remains stable and available throughout digestion. Once absorbed, silicon acts as a critical cofactor in collagen synthesis by supporting the enzymatic processes responsible for collagen fiber formation and crosslinking.
Bloosil comes in a soluble and mesoporous form which enables the delivery of silicon into the intestine as Orthosilic acid. Orthosilicic acid supports collagen formation by promoting prolyl hydroxylase activity, the enzyme that hydroxylates proline and enables proper the formation of collagen's triple‑helix structure. It also promotes osteoblast maturation, enhancing bone‑forming activity.
By contributing to the structural organization of collagen, elastin, and other connective tissue components, BLOOSIL™ helps reinforce tissue strength, elasticity, and resilience—enhancing the functional benefits of collagen-based formulations across beauty, joint, and bone health applications.
Plant-based silica from bamboo, such as BLOOSIL™, is a highly bioavailable source of silicon that supports bone, joint, and beauty-from-within formulations. Silicon is a key cofactor in collagen synthesis and connective tissue integrity, contributing to bone matrix formation, mineralization, and overall skeletal health. Clinical studies have linked dietary silicon with improved bone mineral density and enhanced collagen cross-linking, whichbenefitsjoint cartilage, skin elasticity, and the structural strength of hair and nails. Bamboo-derived silica’s naturally porous, soluble structure allows efficient intestinal absorption, making it an ideal ingredient for formulations targeting bone support, joint function, and beauty-from-within applications.
