Great video once again. CautionHorsetail green stalks should not be eaten raw. They contain thiaminase, an enzyme that destroys thiamine or vitamin B1 stores in the body. This is especially problematic for grazing horses that seem to love it. Cooking or drying the plant destroys this enzyme.Be careful not to gather horsetail in areas where water drains from agriculture or industry. Inorganic nitrogen compounds are absorbed into the plant and create less toxic alkaloids from them including nicotine and acanatine, which are harmful to the body.

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. I was aware of the thiaminase activity and am glad to learn that cooking or drying it will inactivate the enzyme. Since B1, Thiamine operates our Breathing Function in the Lower Brainstem it has a vital function. Dr Derek Lonsdale discovered the deficiency in newborns causing infantile apnea (SIDS) and had a Permit from the FDA to import high doses up to 2,700 mg to shock their bodies into assimilating it. Horsetail has great value in helping heal bone breaks. Someone I know was advised to supplement with it after a shattered ankle and the Surgeon was astounded about how quickly it healed. When his patient said, we'll I... he said I don't want to hear anymore...

[@TheMakoyou]

Horsetail is also eaten by the Japanese, but it is amazing that it is eaten raw without lye. horsetail contains alkaloids, so maybe it is not a good idea to recommend it to others. In Japan we boil it in baking soda to remove the alkaloids. Maybe people think Japanese only eat Sushi, but we eat a lot of plants with toxins. The most poisonous one is konnyaku, a kind of potato. It contains calcium oxalate, which is highly toxic. That's why we always boil it in lime. We also eat bracken, which contains ptahkiloside, so we always boil it in baking soda, and the Japanese apricot called Ume, which contains hydrocyanic acid. So it must be soaked in sake to remove the poison. Many plants that sprout in spring have toxins in them, so it is best not to recommend them to uninformed people.

raw horse tail is only use internally in the spring when the branches are turned up. when the plant matures it can develop thiaminase which destroys thiamine ( vitamin B1 ) stored in the body ,cooking can render thiaminase safe for consumption acording to Janice J.Schofield in the book "discovering wild plants" any how i enjoyed your presentation on horse tail very much, thanks !

[@gomezaddams6470]

@@coffeebeforemascara the ones he was eating we're fine to just eat right there at that time. I think eating them everyday or often say as often as you would eat lettuce is when it starts leaching other vitamins one time isn't going to hurt you in small amounts. Notice he did say try it in small amounts at first till you know how your body reacts that's for all sorts of different reasons. If you know where there's a bunch bring them home and peel them and treat them as you would asparagus sauteed Lamb with garlic do whatever you would do normally with asparagus. If you just want to try a couple raw I'm sure that would be fine unless you're allergic or? I wish I had a safe clean place to pick them. There's nothing left in my state which is amazing because we used to be one of the greenest states in the world now it's just one big giant condominium. Everything's polluted everything sprayed with Roundup the sides of the roads are sprayed with Roundup because the people in the mcmansions like the look of nothing rather than green or yellow. I went to a park that seem to be fairly clean as far as chemicals and every single flower had a dead pollinator in it they had just sprayed Roundup pellets all over the ground the day or two before I am super sensitive to pesticides and herbicides because I was saturated as a younger person way too much so I have to stay away from it and to see all those dead pollinators was really scary I'm talking thousands it's just so sad they drive along the side of the freeway with the compressor truck pouring out Roundup at the rate of a garden hose.

i worked in ecological inventory here in canada in the temperate coastal old growth forest, and spent a year doing the same in britain. i can tell you that the wild boggy places in britain are so similar to the coastal zone, minus of course the giant trees and complex understory, which are long removed. bilberry for example is a dead ringer for our blue huckleberry, but its miniature, and the similarities in the mosses and lichen is so obvious. it would be amazing to have a time machine and go back to see the old growth forest of britain, the complexity would have been mindblowing. but britain is still one of the most beautiful places ive been, especially now in spring with the may trees flowering, break my heart!

Well done! That was simply the best presentation I've seen on horsetail yet! I tell my clients to be wary of commercial horsetail preparations because of the potential that they've been picked in polluted areas or harvested when too mature, making the mineral content too high to be safe. I'm so glad to hear you mentioned these possible drawbacks. A third is that when incorrectly dried, it tends to molder easily, ironic considering it's also an antifungal medicine. But gathered and prepared according to your excellent directions, a wonderful ally.

@@helendennis7662 Hi Helen, I did some reading about biodynamics and their use of various preparations for garden plants. You can find out more about that method if you do a Google search under biodynamics. One was horsetail tea. I gathered a big handful of horsetail in May (found it growing along a creek) and cut it up into pieces a few inches long, put into an old pot with water to cover and let it simmer for a couple of hours. This extracts the silica out of the plant matter. Then let stand overnight in the same pot. Brought back to a simmer in the morning, let cool and then strained out the plant matter. The liquid I put into a spray bottle and sprayed all over my plants, top and bottom sides from the ground to their tops so that they are covered. I only sprayed once on young plants. It really seemed to help them grow and my tomato plants are huge! I'm making more horsetail tea to use on my Fall garden when the plants are about 4 to 6 inches high.

(Valuable information). I have a question, I had put Horsetail in my calcium tea recipe along with oatstraw, stinging nettle, and comfrey when I have it on hand - I would like a recipe that I can use as an herbal calcium, to make sure I am getting enough calcium in the diet. I haven't overdone it yet and don't intend to, now that I have this good intel :) If I made up other batches, removed the Horsetail and maybe added Raspberry Leaf or Dandelion or something else and used them 2 months on - two months off - would this be an answer ? Or any better suggestion... I have extended family that have been requesting something to take the place of the calcium supplements they buy and ingest - I am hoping a gift of an organic herbal tea they can get into their routine might be a good way to let them enjoy the power of the plant. I will also be tincturing up some for convenience - Your video couldn't have been more timely ! Thank you in advance for any counsel ! P.S. If a horse's tail is inverted it looks remarkably like this plant - clever naming by those who must have had a closer relationship to horses then most do today - lol.

I’m so excited, I finally found some horsetail, after looking all over the property I found some mullein last year, I knew I’ve seen horsetail before, but not sure where. You might think I found it by the creek out back but it came up right next to the garage :)

But don't imitate him and eat it raw, because it contains alkaloids. In Japan, it is always boiled with baking soda. Plants are often thought of as healthy, but many plants are poisonous. Even potatoes have been modified to remove the poison so that they can be eaten.

Hi, horsetail contains the enzyme thiaminase, which degrades vitamin B1. Vitamin B1 is amongst others crucial for the nervous system. Cattle can show severe central nervous system symptoms and may die due to vitamin B1 degradation due to horsetail.

Thank you for sharing this information. I have seen both kinds of Horsetail and wondered if they are the same plant.

Are you saying that even with severe bone loss that I should not use this for more than 2 months of the year. Thanks for the video. I love learning about plant life.

Yes, as the minerals can build up and cause issues with kidney stones. This can be offer with other herbs, and is not the case for everyone, but it's well worth knowing. My recommendation is to take periodic breaks from it and work with other herbs in the off times.

I absolutely love this subject and admire people who can identify plants which are good food or medicinal. ... my problem is that plants can look very very similar ....how on earth can you be 100% sure ... It scares me to think I could eat something that could poison you ... how do you get to that point where you are so sure ?
