Why is the silicon in field horsetail valued, and who might be interested in this product?

Silicon is a trace element that is involved in the formation of connective tissue and is part of the structure of hair and nails. Field horsetail is one of the few plants with a notable natural content of silicon compounds, which is what makes it a traditional choice in European herbal practice.

It is important to understand that a horsetail infusion is not a concentrate or an extract. It is a classic herbal form in which silicon and other plant substances are present in the form in which they occur in the plant itself. This format is chosen by those who prefer to get plant components through a familiar warm infusion rather than through capsules or tablets.

The product may be of interest to people who consciously diversify their diet with plant components — especially at times of year when they want to add something from traditional herbs to their menu. It is often seen as a seasonal addition to the diet rather than a permanent one.

FARMGRUPP Põldosi is a herbal raw material for infusion, not a medicine. The product is not intended to treat or prevent diseases. Field horsetail is not recommended during pregnancy and breastfeeding. If you take medicines or have a chronic disease, consult a specialist before use.
