Horsetail has a high silicon content (a mineral needed for bone health) and as such has been used to help strengthen bones, hair and nails. It has even been suggested as a possible treatment option for osteoporosis.
Horsetail also provides calcium to the body, as well as several other minerals that the body uses to rebuild injured tissue. And studies have shown that horsetail directly stimulates the production of bone cells, leading to the increased formation of bone tissue.
Its most traditional use, however, is as a diuretic. Professional herbalists recognize that its diuretic properties promote the flow of urine, which may be useful for health problems like urinary tract conditions and kidney stones. In fact, it is so effective at helping eliminate water from the body that it can help increase urination by up to 30%.
In addition, the high silica content in the horsetail herb helps reduce the risk of excessive bleeding and contributes to the building of healthy blood cells. Research has shown that horsetail increases the number of phagocytes, white blood cells that get rid of microorganisms and other foreign substances, which improves the entire immune system.
