Equisetum hyemale
Primitive vascular plant used by Native Americans and Europeans for silica-rich tissue strengthening.
Equisetum hyemale, commonly known as scouring rush, is a primitive vascular plant traditionally used by Native Americans and Europeans for its high silica content to support bone, connective tissue, and wound healing. Modern applications include use as a silica supplement for bone density, hair, and nail health, as well as a mild diuretic. Key active compounds include silica, equisetine, flavonoids, and saponins, with evidence level C indicating limited clinical data.
The primary mechanism is attributed to its high bioavailable silica content, which is thought to promote collagen synthesis and bone mineralization by providing orthosilicic acid, a form of silicon that enhances osteoblast activity. Flavonoids and saponins contribute to mild diuretic effects via increased renal blood flow and inhibition of sodium reabsorption. Alkaloids may have mild anti-inflammatory actions, but overall mechanisms are not fully elucidated in human studies.
