OLIMP SKRZYP PLUS ®
contains a natural extract from field horsetail, supplemented by a
complex of vitamins indispensable for good hair and nail growth and the
correct functioning of hair, skin and nails.
Why is field horsetail so precious?
Field horsetail is a rich source of extraordinary pro-health
substances. It contains valuable flavonoids, saponins, mineral
compounds, organic acids, plant sterols, and especially silica which is
soluble and easily absorbed. Quite recently it has also been regarded
as a "beauty element". Silicon is present in nearly every tissue of our
body, having control over the work and development of cells.
How does field horsetail improve the skin
condition?
The silicon contained in field horsetail oversees the
maintenance of the correct moisture level in connective tissue, thanks
to which it gives the skin elasticity, flexibility and a healthy look
and it also protects the skin from the formation of wrinkles. The
results of numerous tests also suggest that silicon is efficient in
preventing hair from turning grey, in hardening, cracking and splitting
nails, and in increasing immunity to mycosis and bacterial infections.
Can field horsetail aid in the functioning of
the circulatory system?
Yes, it can. This is thanks to the wealth of mineral compounds
and numerous biologically active substances contained in this plant.
Silicon, present in horsetail, maintains the elasticity of blood
vessels and prevents fat compounds from being deposited in these
vessels. The activity of this element is additionally supported by the
presence of flavonoids, which prevent leakage from blood vessels and
prevent harmful transformations of fat in the circulation of
blood.
Which additional pro-health properties does
field horsetail demonstrate?
Thanks to its complex and rich composition, field horsetail
also plays an important role in the smooth operation of the digestive
track. What is more, it speeds up wound healing and prevents vessels
from rupturing. Silicates contained in horsetail block the
crystallization of minerals and prevent them from being deposited in
urinary tracts. Silicon also plays an essential part in the process of
mineralization of the skeleton, preventing decalcification.
