How does field horsetail improve the skin condition?
The silicon contained in field horsetail oversees the maintenance of the correct moisture level in connective tissue, thanks to which it gives the skin elasticity, flexibility and a healthy look and it also protects the skin from the formation of wrinkles. The results of numerous tests also suggest that silicon is efficient in preventing hair from turning grey, in hardening, cracking and splitting nails, and in increasing immunity to mycosis and bacterial infections.
Can field horsetail aid in the functioning of the circulatory system?
Yes, it can. This is thanks to the wealth of mineral compounds and numerous biologically active substances contained in this plant. Silicon, present in horsetail, maintains the elasticity of blood vessels and prevents fat compounds from being deposited in these vessels. The activity of this element is additionally supported by the presence of flavonoids, which prevent leakage from blood vessels and prevent harmful transformations of fat in the circulation of blood.
