Product Overview
Horsetail extract 10:1 is a concentrated extract of Equisetum arvense aerial stems, one of the plant kingdom’s best-known silica sources. Horsetail is a fixture of the beauty-from-within category – hair, skin and nail formulas – and of traditional urinary-tract botanical blends. The 10:1 extract ratio concentrates the dried herb tenfold. VeraVita Bio supplies the bulk powder for capsule and tablet manufacturers.

How It Works
- Composition – horsetail stems accumulate silica in the form of hydrated silicic acid and silicates, along with flavonoids and saponins; the 10:1 ratio concentrates the whole-herb constituents.
- Formulation role – dosed as the botanical silica contributor in HSN (hair-skin-nail) stacks; quantitative silicon content varies by batch and should be confirmed for label maths.
- Botanical identity – Equisetum arvense (field horsetail) is the accepted food-supplement species; other Equisetum species are toxic look-alikes, so identity testing matters.
- Hair/skin/nail claims for finished products are the brand owner’s responsibility under local rules.
Typical Applications
- Hair, skin and nail (HSN) beauty-from-within capsules
- Collagen-companion botanical formulas
- Urinary-tract traditional botanical blends
- Herbal tea and instant-powder formats
- Single-botanical standardised capsules
