Ιππουρίδα

Ιππουρίδα (commonly known as horsetail) is a herbal tincture in vegetable glycerin made from the Equisetum plant. Traditionally, horsetail has been used in herbal medicine for a wide range of purposes thanks to its rich silica content and plant compounds like flavonoids and phenols. The product page explains that this plant has been historically used to support:

• Diuresis & fluid balance (helps with water retention and edema)

• Kidney & bladder health and urinary tract infections

• Urinary incontinence support

• Kidney stones & renal colic

• Inflammation of the urinary system

• Detoxification and tissue repair

• Joint discomfort / rheumatism & arthritis

• Skin conditions like acne, eczema, itching, psoriasis

  Traditional herbal knowledge also notes horsetail’s use as a diuretic, anti-inflammatory, and a nutritive tonic due to its mineral content.
