Is it true that oral silicon supplements have shown small or inconsistent effects on bone density in human clinical trials?
Unclear. The retrieved items do not directly report human clinical trials of oral silicon supplements on bone density. One review notes positive associations between dietary silicon intake and bone mineral density, and one laboratory study reports silicon effects on osteoclasts, but neither settles the claim about small or inconsistent trial effects.
