Abstract

With the change of dietary structure and the improvement of health awareness of Chinese residents, the public's attention to silicon content in food and drinking water is also increasing. Studies show that silicon has important functions for human health, and drinking water is the most common and safest way for human body to ingest silicon. In particular, it is particularly important to ingest silicon in metasilicic mineral water. In this paper, the existing forms of silicon in nature and the relationship between silicon and human health are studied in order to provide help and reference for the detection of silicon content in food and drinking water and the quality evaluation of mineral water.
