Which Foods Is Silicon Found In?
哪些食物里有硅？
Silicon is a mineral that, like calcium and vitamin D, can help improve the strength of your bones and lower your risk for osteoporosis, according to an article published in the "International Journal of Endocrinology" in 2013. Plant foods tend to contain more silicon than animal foods, so vegetarians often have higher silicon intakes than meat eaters do.
根据2013年发表于《国际内分泌学杂志》的一篇文章的说法：硅是一种矿物质，跟钙和维生素D差不多，可有助于改善骨骼强度，降低骨质疏松的风险。相比动物性饮食，植物性饮食往往含有更多的硅，因此，素食者通常比肉食者吃进更多的硅。
Common Dietary Sources

Red wine, beer, raisins, whole-grain bread, bran cereal, brown rice, green beans and mineral water are some of the more common sources of silicon. Other common sources are barley, oats, whole wheat, nuts, dried fruit, bananas, root vegetables, spinach, seafood and organ meats. Although beans tend to be lower in silicon, red lentils contain a significant amount of this nutrient. Drinking water may also contain some amount of silicon.
