Belonging to the horsetail family, horsetail grows along waterfronts and in wetlands. Also known as horsetail, horsetail is also considered a 'living fossil.' It is known by various names in different regions, such as 'pine grass, bird's tail, or spring grass.' Grown almost everywhere in our country, horsetail resembles rosemary in appearance. This beneficial plant, with its antioxidant properties, increases body resistance and is also effective against autoimmune diseases.
