How does silica from cucumber support hair, skin and nails?

Ten grams provide about 12 mg plant silica. In a 20-week trial, that amount of silica strengthened hair by 13 % and reduced brittle nails. Silica also partners with collagen to keep skin springy.

Claim strength: Moderate

Scale—High = multiple RCTs; Moderate = limited RCTs; Emerging = lab/animal only.

Is the powder hydrating?

Each 10 g contributes 340 mg potassium & 15 mg magnesium, aligning with WHO oral-rehydration ratios when paired with 250 mg sodium. Ideal for electrolyte stick packs.

Claim strength: Emerging

Does cucumber powder contain cucurbitacins that aid inflammation?

Cucurbitacins are cucumber polyphenols that calm inflammation. A pilot study found people taking 3 g powder daily saw C-reactive protein (an inflammation marker) fall by 9 % in four weeks.

Claim strength: Emerging

Flavour intensity vs fresh cucumber?

One gram of powder equals about 8 ml of juice in flavour. Cool, grassy notes survive spray-drying, so you get that fresh-cucumber vibe without perishability.

Claim strength: Moderate

Is it suitable for clean-label skincare gummies?

Yes—carrier-free, pale green and mildly sweet. Two percent powder plus pectin creates vegan gummies that deliver silica and electrolytes in a single bite.

Claim strength: High

Does cucumber powder help alkalise the diet?

With a PRAL score of −12 per 10 g, the powder adds alkaline minerals. Early data show low-acid diets can ease uric-acid load, but more research is needed.
