    Description and habitat

     

    • Perennial plant of wet clay-siliceous marshy soils
    • Fertile stems appearing in early spring with an oblong sporangiferous spike

    • At the nodes are inserted whorled leaves of reduced size

     

    History and tradition

     

    • Primitive plant whose ancestors proliferated in the primary or Paleozoic era (600-300 million years before our era) in the form of very tall trees
    • Very abrasive, it was used to polish metals and wood
    • The Latin name Equisetum comes from the Latin equus (horse) and seta (silk)
    • The vernacular name of "horsetail" also has a Latin origin, asperella means "harsh" (in reference to the silica of the stems which made it possible to scour or polish)
    • Some old works (Kervran) would have shown that organic silicon is superior to calcium for the consolidation of fractures

    Properties

     

    Plant properties

     

    • Remineralising (silica)
    • Diuretic (potassium salts, flavonoids , phenolic acids ), urinary elimination of flavonoid metabolites and hydroxycinnamic acid derivatives [3]
    • Improved connective tissue resistance, healing (organosoluble silicon), would stimulate osteoblasts [4] , [5] , [6] , [7]
    • Anti-inflammatory and analgesic by hydro-alcoholic extract [8]
    • Hemostatic
    • Phenolic derivatives ( onitin and onitin-9-O-glucoside ) and flavonoids ( apigenin , luteolin , kaempferol-3-O-glucoside ), quercetin-3-O-glucoside ) are hepatoprotective and anti-oxidants [9]
    • Immunomodulating [10]
    • Slow and progressive decrease in hypergammaglobulinemia
    • The methanolic extract shows antidiabetic activity in rats [11] , [12]
    • Antioxidant, lowers blood insulin and leptin levels after a fatty meal [13]
    • Antiproliferative [14]
    • Growth inhibitor and apoptosis inducer on human leukemia cells U937 [15]
    • Protective effect against the mutagenic power of cyclophosphamide [16]
      • Antifungal activity in plant protection: horsetail manure (in decoction, then the juice is left to ferment in the open air, see nettle ) sprayed on the foliage of other plants is a preventive treatment against cryptogamic diseases (to be applied regularly to spring)

     

    Bud properties

     

    Properties of essential oil

     

    • Antimicrobial ( Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella enteritidis, Aspergillus niger, Candida albicans )

     

    Directions

     

    Indications of the whole plant (phytotherapy)

     

    • Remineralizing, usable in the consolidation of fractures (+++), bone fragility, post-menopausal osteoporosis, cramps and spasmophilia
    • It is also used in osteoarthritis as a basic treatment (in micronized powder), in tendonitis and abarticular rheumatism
    • Improves the resistance and flexibility of connective tissue, appendages (nails and hair), healing
    • Basic action in polyarthritis and hypergammaglobulinaemic diseases (in TM or liquid forms)
    • Renal inflammation, drainer in bacteriuria
    • Hemostatic
    • Cramps
    • In cosmetology: prevention of wrinkles, stretch marks, cellulite, hair loss

     

    Indications of the bud (gemmotherapy)

    Regulations

     

     

    Possible side effects and precautions for use

     

    • Anti-thiamine activity [18]
    • A described case of liver toxicity [19]
      • Horsetail extracts are not hepatotoxic in rats [20]
      • Horsetail is on the contrary hepatoprotective [21] , [22]
    • Contraindicated in end-stage renal failure with dialysis
    • Due to its diuretic properties, horsetail can theoretically induce a hypokalaemic effect, avoid in case of concomitant intake of a hypokalaemic diuretic
    • In vitro studies have shown a weak inhibition of cytochromes p450 by methanolic extracts (CYP2B6, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP1A2) [23] , the inhibition of CYP3A4 seems weak in vivo [24]
    • Contraindicated in progressive cancers (??)
    • Neither cytotoxic nor mutagenic [16]
