When it comes to anti-aging, it can be tempting to focus solely on products and procedures that promise quick results. However, it’s also important to consider what daily routines and rituals might be improved to help you achieve a younger look. Specifically, taking a closer look at your diet is important. Just as certain foods can make you look older, other ingredients can help you look younger.
With that in mind, keep reading for the one anti-inflammatory hot drink you should be having before bed for younger-looking skin!
Horsetail Tea
Horsetail tea is an incredible anti-inflammatory option for a nighttime hot drink, and it can even help you look younger.
Dr. Devika Icecreamwala, a board certified dermatologist with Icecreamwala Dermatology in San Francisco, told The Zoe Report, "Horsetail tea has a lot of silica in it, which helps to produce collagen in the skin. When the tea is ingested, it can increase production of collagen, which makes our skin look more youthful."
That's not all. Horsetail has a long list of potential health and beauty benefits that make it the perfect addition to many diets.
Particularly, there is evidence to suggest that horsetail can even promote hair growth.
According to the Healthline, "[A] 3-month study in women with self-perceived hair thinning determined that taking two daily capsules containing dried horsetail and other ingredients increased hair growth and strength, compared with a control group."
With that in mind, if you are looking to change up your routine and want to incorporate some anti-aging ingredients into your nightly ritual, consider adding horsetail tea into your diet, and reap all the benefits of this anti-inflammatory and antioxidant-rich tea.
