Choline-stabilized orthosilicic acid supplementation as an adjunct to Calcium/Vitamin D3 stimulates markers of bone formation in osteopenic females: a randomized, placebo-controlled trial

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Mounting evidence supports a physiological role for silicon (Si) as orthosilicic acid (OSA, Si(OH)<sub>4</sub>) in bone formation. The effect of oral choline-stabilized orthosilicic acid (ch-OSA) on markers of bone turnov...
