The role of silica in human physiology is essential. It is among the 12 major components of our organism that contains about 7g or it (that is, the double over iron). Our silica daily need is quite high: 20 to 30 mg per day. Diet influences directly the satisfaction of this need. The consumption of too refined products and our too low natural reserves explain that we are so easily in a deficiency condition.
Horsetail is one of the oldest plants on our planet, though its chemistry is certainly of the most complex and richest that can be found in the Plant kingdom. Our laboratories have naturally selected it as one of the major elements of the composition of its products. Actually, the high silica content of Horsetail makes of it an exceptional plant of choice.
In addition to some number of organic components (flavonoids, saponosids and glucids), 15 mineral elements (metalloids adn metals) are most often present as oxides in Horsetail. As regards silica (SiO2), it is in a soluble form and deserves to be cited on its own: a rigouroulsly conducted study has allowed to show its distinguishly positive role in the reconstitution of bone tissues. Is also contributes in a decisive manner to the health of phaneres (nails, hair), to the one of teeth (particularly for enamel), as well as to the maintenance of the qualities of skin elasticity and strength. According to some authors, it would constitue a major defence mean of the organism against external agressions and degenerative processes.
No chemical handling is used to obtain Horsetail silica. Nebulization occurs at the end of the aqueous extraction process, assuring a maximal conservation of the horsetail active principles, and consequently of its original properties.
