Herb Of The Week - Horsetail

[Guest guest]

Happy Moonday to everyone!

 

The herb of the week this week - November 7th - 13th is

Horsetail (Equisetum arvense).

 

I will post various info about this wonderful herb all week,

and I hope that anyone who has any personal experience with

this plant will not hesitate to post about it too :-D

oh you are letting me cheat! this is one of the next herbs i need to profile

for my correspondance herbalism course. well, i'm sure Ms. Rosemary Gladstar

& Co. has had other things to do in the past SEVEN MONTHS, but I can't

believe it's going on 8 months and I still haven't put together a single

complete homework to submit. the marketing literature says that the longest

it took someone was 6 years to complete the course ... at this rate I will

be making that person look punctual. The problem is that I had to collect

the materials for the first 3-4 lessons at once, so inevitably, I started

working on all FOUR at once so while I've actually gotten a lot done there

isn't a single completed homework. This is so unlike me. I usually am the

first to turn in homework and get my gold star 100%. There are people on

this list who I went to high school with who are probably gloating at the

idea of me being woefully behind and *gasp* a slacker even! The fact that

it's snowing and Mt. Bachelor is rumored to be opening at the end of this

week is not going to help. but I digress. this was supposed to be about

horsetail, wasn't it???

 

you know ... i wish there were a way to post something to the list AND a

group database so that we could have a lovely discussion on each herb and

have the salient points end up in a tidy database that would be easy to

search ... ah well, I guess I know what I'm doing with all the herbal

profile data I collect ... sometime in the next 6 years anyway!

 

After we finish with horsetail, can I tell you what other herbs I still need

to profile for lesson 1??? ; )

Christine,

 

My friend Magda has very

wimpy fine hair that tends to be sparse as well.

As long as she takes dried powdered horsetail in capsule form it is a lot

thicker.

Not only hair strengthening . . . but weak fingernails, as well. Hoping to

herbs.

I read that horsetail was good for treating nail fungus in

The Herb Companion. When a friend told me he had a nail

fungus, I made an infusion of horsetail in olive oil. I

added tea tree and lavender essential oils. He called it a

miracle cure. The nail started looking better the next day.

Within a couple of weeks, it was almost back to normal.

Neal,

Add a few drops of Thyme White to the formula and you

will be really surprised to see what happens.

Hello everyone!

 

 

 

I saw the various postings on horsetail and wanted to share a personal

testimony, if that's alright. I am a psoriasis sufferer and lived with a

combination psoriasis/seborrhea on my scalp and neck over 16 years. I drew

the line when the doctors wanted to inject my scalp with steroids. In the

meantime, I was losing my hair at a tremendous rate and feared I'd be

completely bald by the time I reached 40. I had been working with the Dead

Sea muds, salts & brine for a few years and ran across a testimonial on how

using the mud on the scalp could help to strengthen hair roots. Out of shear

vanity I started mudding my hair. I did a treatment daily for about 6 weeks.

One day I was " checking my scalp " for the huge flakes that would get matted

in my hair and realized I couldn't feel any raised, weeping or " chunky "

areas. I raced to my husband's office and had him double check my scalp - it

was all healed up! We couldn't believe it! I got so ecstatic I called the

National Psoriasis Foundation and told them about it! That was back in

October of 2000. I am still clean today on my scalp and neck. I mud my hair

once a week to maintain healthiness of the scalp. Over the course of time my

hair has gotten stronger, and now at 42 I hardly have any gray hair to speak

of.

 

 

 

We've watched the hair mud aid many clients, friends & family members with

over dry scalp, dandruff, psoriasis, eczema & seborrhea. On average it seems

to take about 6 weeks of treatments. We actually blend various herbs (such

as horsetail), botanical extracts, essential oils, conditioner and vegetable

glycerin into our private custom formula. If you color or bleach your hair -

we've found that a mud treatment 2-3 days prior to a service will allow gray

hair to take color better, blondes last longer and stay truer to color &

perms take faster & last longer, too! No blondes will not turn green! I

allowed my hair to be heavily " chunked " blonde while in school just so I

could find out - the color stayed the same blonde shade up to the last hair

cut 6 months later!

 

 

 

I also saw Neal's post on nail fungus and I've used Dead Sea mud treatments

and got rid of my own nail fungus as well as a few family members. Being a

Master Nail Technician, we aren't able to offer such services to the public,

but nothing keeps us from " sharing testimonials " with clients! )

 

 

 

Hope you all have a fantastic evening! If I didn't have choir practice on

Tuesday nights, I'd love to get in on one of the group chats! Hope you have

a great session tonight!

 

God Bless,

 

Tammy D.

OK, inquiring minds need to know..... how much horsetail, dried?, to

make a cup of tea... I don't think I've even seen horsetail in the whole

foods store in my area. Can't imagine the taste. Has anyone used it?

Check your local healthfood store. Mine has horsetail in tea bags. I am

going to get some!

It tastes pretty bad. Imagine drinking hay.

 

Hello everyone -- I should introduce myself. I joined last week. Years ago I

was in the process of learning about herbal remedies and essential oils and

got side-tracked by a granddaughter. So, now I'm back.

I infuse horsetail and comfrey in olive oil to use in my cuticle cream.

Horsetail is fantastic at strengthening the nail and the comfrey is just as

great at keeping the cuticle healthy.

Dear Madame Mud Cream Queen,

May I ask how you made the scalp mud. Clay, poultice,

masceration, etc. I know someone who has a similar

situtation to what you had, but his is prediodical

with flares.

Yes. It was a toenail fungus. Just his big toe, but pretty

gross looking. (Here's a photo of a similar nail:

I haven't read all the posts and hope I'm not out-of-line here, but could it

have been the lavender and tea tree that worked their magic and not the

horsetail?

Hey you two, I would love to have it too. I have 2 nails that have the

fungus junk and my doctor wouldn't even put me on the lamisil. Said it is

awful stuff and to keep trying with my things I make. Must be pretty rough

on the kidneys and liver or he would have done it. I'm diabetic so that was

probably a big reason why he wouldn't.

Equisetum japonica, aka Joint grass, shave grass, bottle brush, Dutch

rushes, scouring rush, bull pipes, pewterwort, devil's guts, paddock guts..

 

I could not find it at my local HFS under horsetail. I googled and found

these names. I would use 2 Tbsp per quart of water and go from there...just

a guess!

I ordered some from herbalcom.com. I will let you know how it tastes when it

gets here. I love the smell of hay-oat hay, alfalfa, etc. As long as this is
