Horsetail

Horsetail

Horsetail is rich in silica and widely known as an excellent herb for brittle hair and nails. It has been used as a hair rinse to help improve the strength and quality of hair, and applied to the scalp to promote hair growth. Its ability to stimulate collagen makes it useful for skin health. It has anti-inflammatory and diuretic properties, which have been known to benefit the bladder and kidneys, and infections such as cystitis. It has been traditionally used as a bladder tonic, which strengthens the bladder muscles to aid with urinary incontinence in children and adults. Its astringent quality makes if useful to minimize bleeding (internal and external). It also has been shown to increase calcium absorption and traditionally used to help treat osteoporosis and other bone conditions.
