Horsetail Herbal Tea by Marco Pharma 3oz

Uses
Provides mineral and calcium support.

Key Ingredient
Equisetum arvense (Horsetail)

Suggested Use
Adults
2 to 3 cups daily between or after meals. Use as accompanying remedy intermittently for six months or longer as a nutritional supplement (1 cup daily).
Children
1/2 the adult amount.

Preparation
Simmer (low boiling) 2 tablespoons in one quart or less of pure water for 10 minutes, preferably using a glass or ceramic container. To maximize their efficacy, herbal teas should be consumed plain. However, if strongly desired, natural sweeteners, such as honey, stevia, or Sucanat are highly recommended. We particularly emphasize using pure water for drinking and making tea (avoid the use of tap and distilled water).

Special Comments
Horsetail tea can be beneficial in conjunction with Solidago No.5, Sabal Serrulatum No. 15, Bucco No. 25 and Sambong capsules.

The EQUISETUM herb is rich in silicic acid crystals (10 percent) and also contains potassium, iron, magnesium, manganese, oxalic acid, and malic acid. Silicic acid crystals are the precursor to calcium build-up in the body. When dissociated in liquid (tea), they are easily absorbed by the body, contrary to any calcium tablet.

Cilicea, especially that of EQUISETUM, has a special affinity for the rebuilding of connective tissue. Studies by Dr. Zirkgraf (Germany) concluded that when the organism showed a lack of Cilicea and calcium after tuberculosis diseases, the old school doctors prescribed EQUISETUM tea.

Horsetail Tea is beneficial for kidney function. Individuals who drink distilled water for extended periods of time can develop a mineral imbalance. It should be noted that distillation is an oxidizing process, therefore, distilled water will increase free radical activity in the body which can damage kidney and red blood cells.

The main reasons for avoiding distilled water are: Distillation is an oxidation process, therefore distilled water becomes a free radical. Tests have reported alkalinity up to pH9 in some samples. Long-term consumption can shift the blood into a higher oxidized and alkaline terrain. In this state the blood becomes an ideal host for fungus, viral infections and other pathogens (Prof. Dr. Vincent, France).
