.5 oz. Dried, Chopped
Horsetail is an ancient plant dated back to approximately 350 million years ago. Due to its unique expression, common names also include scouring rush, bottle brush, and shavegrass.
Equisetum arvense is considered a nutritious herb and is usually decocted as tea and infused into herbal vinegars and tonics.
Not to be confused with cat-tail, it is possibly the most significant source of silica among plants, in fact the herb can be used for polishing metal and is known as "scouring rush".
Traditional uses include it as an ingredient in shampoos, skincare products, and in dietary supplements. Its high silica content also makes it a supportive herb for bone health, wound healing, and nail strengthening!
To prepare as tea, pour 8 oz boiling water over 2 tsp of herb. Cover and Steep for 5-10 minutes, strain, serve and enjoy!
