OstroVit Horsetail Extract - valuable supplement to the daily diet Horsetail - Equisetum arvense L. - perennial plant belonging to the Equisetaceae family, resembling a small fir tree in appearance. It is a perennial plant that can be found throughout Europe, both in damp thickets and on farmlands. In gardens, it is considered a weed; however, it is valued in herbal medicine because the green, fertile shoots of field horsetail contain numerous organic compounds and bioactive substances, including silica. When bending the stem of horsetail, you can hear a characteristic sound, which is related to the presence of valuable silica in the plant, i.e. a chemical compound that occurs naturally in nature, also in the human body. Silica is used as an ingredient in dietary supplements and also as a component in cosmetics intended for care of hair, face and nails.
