HORSETAIL Equisetum arvense (POLIKOMPI) Equisteum Family
Common names: Peterwort, snakegrass

HISTORY OF USE
Horsetail is an ancient plant, with fossils found from prehistoric time. It has an herbal tradition of use in China, Russia, parts of Europe, and with North American Indians. It was widely used in Europe as a topical wound healing herb. It is one of the only living genus of the entire class Equisetopsida, There are no close relatives to this herb; the closest group of plants are ferns.
Horsetail  has a long and varied history of medicinal use. In the first century AD, Galen described it as cooling and drying to the body. Culpeper, in the 17th century, described it as a hardening medicine, meaning it reduced inflammation and excess moisture in the body.
Horsetail makes an effective natural diuretic. In modern medicine, a diuretic is usually supplemented by potassium to replace the potassium lost in urine. Horsetail, however, has its own built-in way of helping the body maintain potassium levels. In a normal diet the ratio of potassium to sodium is about 2:1, but in horsetail it is 150:1, which means any potassium lost by its diuretic action is replaced naturally.
In the last century horsetail was used to treat tuberculosis and is now used for conditions where tissue repair to damaged lungs is required. Horsetail is also used to curb excessive menstrual bleeding through its astringent and toning properties.
Russian research conducted in the early 1960s indicates that horsetail effectively removes toxic lead accumulation from the body, echoing the tradition of use as a blood cleanser.

CULINARY USE

Plant material should not be ingested as it is a rough herb and can be tough on the digestive system. Horsetail infusions, however, can be added to soups, stews, smoothies, and the like.

MEDICINAL USE
Silica must be present for the utilization of calcium, so horsetail is essential in mineral uptake considering the herb has an extremely high amount of silica. Good to use when there is an indication of low silica, as exhibited by split ends, hair loss, weak hair, splitting nails, cracked and rigid nails.
Urinary System: In combination with other herbs, horsetail is used in cystitis (bladder infection), and in interstitial cystitis (inflammation of the layer between bladder lining and muscle). Its effectiveness is thought to come from its alkalinizing effect on urine and from the fact that it makes the bladder wall less permeable to bacteria. Horsetail has long been used to alleviate both kidney and bladder stones, having a solvent effect on uric stones. It also helps to heal and tone the wall of the bladder, especially strengthening the bladder sphincter. This makes horsetail very valuable in conditions where frequent urination is due to a weak bladder sphincter. It is often combined to good effect with hydrangea root (Hydrangea arborescens) for men with benign prostate enlargement. It would seem that an herb that increases the need to urinate would be aggravating, whereas in fact the tissue-healing, strengthening and toning actions of horsetail actually improve the condition.Offers healing for urinary tract infections and for bladder problems, and is generally thought of as a urinary tract herb. Also good for short term use for kidney stones. 
Blood cleanser: Removes toxins from blood. 
External use: Horsetail is known as a vulnerary, meaning it increases wound healing, and has been used as a poultice to staunch bleeding. Good as a hair rinse or hair oil.

Quiet, powerful, and very easy to use
Color: Black, Color: Black
Very convenient and stylish milk frother. I use it every day for coffee and matcha — the foam becomes thick in just a few seconds. It works quietly, holds a charge well, and the wireless design with USB charging is very convenient. The handle is lightweight and comfortable to hold. Great value for making café-style drinks at home.

Powerful and good battery life
Color: Black
I’ve been really happy with this rechargeable milk frother. It works great for making cappuccinos, lattes, and even matcha and hot chocolate. The dual spring whisk creates a nice, creamy foam very quickly, much better than I expected for such a compact device. I also like that it’s rechargeable, so I don’t have to constantly buy or replace batteries. The battery life is solid and it holds a charge well. It’s lightweight, easy to handle, and doesn’t take up much space in the kitchen, which makes it perfect for daily use.

I love it because it doesn’t use batteries — you just recharge it and that’s it. Plus, it’s very powerful and works really well. Honestly, I didn’t expect it to be this good. Great option and excellent value for the price.

Good product
Color: Black
Good product I like that it’s rechargeable. The only thing I don’t like is that there’s no power button. You have to press it while in use.
