Horsetail is a urinary astringent. It tones the muscles of the urinary tract and reduces spasms. The herb has a long history of use for controlling incontinence. To make an infusion use two teaspoons of the dried herb per cup of water. Horsetail is a wild weed that grows along stream banks. If gathered in the wild, the area must be pristine, to avoid ingesting toxins. The herb promotes the healing of inflamed tissues.
