Horsetail is a weed that looks very much like a fern and can be found all throughout a wide area including Asia, Europe, North America, and the Middle East. The botanical name for it, Equisetum Arvense L. comes from the word equus (Latin for horse) and seta (Latin for bristle). One of the chief ingredients on horsetail extract is silica which is actually the main source of all silicon in the diet. Taking in decent amounts of silicon has been shown to result in increased bone density meaning fewer breaks. Horsetail extract also has flavanoids which act as antioxidants, protecting healthy cells from the damage that can be caused by roaming free radicals.
