About Nature’s Sunshine Horsetail

Horsetail (Equisetum arvense) stands as one of nature’s most remarkable plants, earning recognition as the richest natural source of silica available in the plant kingdom. This ancient fern has thrived on Earth for over 300 million years, developing unique properties that have made it valuable for traditional health practices across cultures. Nature’s Sunshine Horsetail captures the full potential of this extraordinary plant in an easy-to-take capsule form.

Each serving of Nature’s Sunshine Horsetail provides 720mg of carefully sourced horsetail stem and strobilus. The plant’s hollow, jointed stems naturally concentrate silica and other beneficial compounds, making it an ideal choice for those seeking natural structural support. Scientific research has confirmed that horsetail can contain up to 25% silica by dry weight—a concentration unmatched by any other known plant.

The Science Behind Silica

Silica, composed of silicon and oxygen, plays a vital role in maintaining the structural integrity of various tissues throughout your body. This essential mineral is naturally present in connective tissues, including those that support healthy hair, skin, nails, and bones. As we age, our body’s natural silica levels may decline, making dietary sources increasingly important for maintaining optimal wellness.

Research has shown that silica supports collagen synthesis, which is fundamental to maintaining healthy, elastic skin and strong hair and nails. Additionally, silica contributes to the normal formation and maintenance of bone and cartilage tissue, working alongside calcium and other minerals to support your body’s structural framework.

Traditional Uses and Modern Applications

Horsetail has been valued in traditional herbal practices for thousands of years. Ancient Greek and Roman civilizations recognized its beneficial properties, and it has remained a trusted botanical throughout history. Traditional herbalists have used horsetail to support healthy skin, promote strong hair and nails, and maintain overall structural wellness.

Modern scientific understanding has validated many of these traditional uses. Studies suggest that horsetail’s high silica content, combined with naturally occurring antioxidants like flavonoids and quercetin, may help support the body’s natural processes for maintaining healthy connective tissues. The plant also contains beneficial compounds including sterols and saponins that contribute to its overall health-supporting properties.
