I seem to have hit a bump with a debate with fellow member on the site, he refuses to respond. Putting an impass to see who won the debate. So I just take the case with the you the public.

Is silica just another form of silicone.

Silica, which is a known cancer agent, is natural form of silicon and silicone is silicon build with organic compounds so it's it's not techincal silica or silicon. Silica by the way is sand but you don't inhale or ingest it so the health risk of cancer is much lower than you expect. Heck you go to the beach and built sand castles with it. Silicone is used in breast implants and products that are used in every day life. There have been concern wherther Silicone is safe. Silicone breast implants were common then banned and back on the market.

Now would you feel comfortable having silicone implants in you if you now know that silicone is just in the same chemical family as silica?

Nah, that'd be like being afraid to throw water on a fire, because it's made of hydrogen and oxygen, both of which are highly flamable.
