Mecsek Horsetail Equiseti Herb Premium Natural Herbal Loose Leaves Leaf Tea 50g

Field or common horsetail (Equisetum arvense) is a perennial fern that belongs to the genus Equisetaceae. It grows wild in northern Europe and North and Central America, as well as in other moist places with temperate climates. It has a long, green, densely branched stem that grows from spring to fall. The plant contains numerous beneficial compounds that give it multiple health-promoting effects. Of these, antioxidants and silica stands out. Horsetail not only contains silica, but it is also high in many minerals that support its use as a bone strengthening herb. Silica is fundamentally important in building and maintaining healthy connective tissues, cartilage, muscle, skin, tendons, sheathing, and bone. Horsetail as a natural source of silica promotes the body’s absorption of bone building minerals such as calcium. At Mecsek Tea quality is our highest priority form the leaf to your cup.
