I think less is known about silica's role in iron and Mn regulation, it surely affects aluminium levels, and hmm okay I can see copper..
All plant cell walls contain silica. They absorb it from ground once the crystals are 1-3 nanometer in size, no bigger (bigger and unusually shaped crystals from synthetic silica can be toxic to liver et…

Silica important in removing excess aluminium. People with Alzheimer are known to have higher Al levels, and low whole plants in their diets.
I guess it can have some indirect effect on iron and Mn, via copper levels.
