Horsetail (Skrzyp) Silicon Detox Decoction
The speaker positions this as a home remedy grounded in Exley’s scientific advocacy. He explains that thermal mineral waters high in silicon work on the same principle, but horsetail provides an accessible alternative. The preparation method is critical; people who casually steep horsetail as a quick tea get only a diuretic effect and miss the silicon. By incorporating ground dried horsetail into long-cooked dishes, families can integrate the detox without a medicinal-feeling regimen. The speaker also notes that the decoction can be used externally in the garden, suggesting its silicon content is ample. The vitamin B1 warning underlines that this is not a trivial supplement but an intervention that alters nutrient balance.
Silicon from horsetail chelates aluminum ions in the body, forming a complex that is excreted renally. The prolonged boiling breaks down plant matrices to free up orthosilicic acid, the bioavailable form. Professor Exley’s research indicates silicon effectively sequesters aluminum, reducing its deposition in brain and other tissues.
The speaker and his household regularly use ground dried horsetail in soups; he states it changes neither taste nor smell, only texture if not ground finely.
skrzyp musi być gotowany co najmniej pół godziny najlepiej pokroić to drobno i gotować pół godziny inny sposób to zasuszyć skrzyp i zemleć i wrzucamy tak na przykład łyżkę stołową na dwie osoby dorosłe do zupy
