Summary/Abstract: Physical and chemical characteristics of water infusions of flints are measured and analyzed: рН, the oxidation-reduction potential, the specific electric conductivity, and the content of silicon in the solution. The рН in solutions of water infusions of flints stays within the range of the values of this parameter approved by the normative documents for waters of drinking purposes. The values of oxidation-reduction potentials of water infusions of flints are positive and make from > 300 to < 500 mV, which shouldn’t cause any change in the oxidation-reduction potentials of the internal environment of an organism, and curative properties of these infusions can’t be connected with the Eh parameter. The content of water-soluble mineral connections and of the easily acquired orthosilicon acid in flints is very insignificant; water infusions of flints can’t change the osmotic pressure of biological liquids and be considered as essential sources of silicon for a human body.
