Oatstraw is another herb that I have been using in almost every cup of tea that I make. I love the smell of it...it reminds me of driving past a fresh cut hay field! So sweet!As some of you know, I have some dental 'issues' -mm-hmm...and osteoarthritis runs in my family as well so I decided to use this herb as it is a source of calcium and magnesium. Magnesium is necessary for proper calcium absorption so it sounded like a great combination! I don't drink much milk, if I ever find it raw I likely would but for now, this is my drink of choice!
Oatstraw also is high in chromium, which is useful to balance blood-sugar. That's a plus for a sugar-addict like myself!
Oatstraw is also said to be beneficial for nervous disorders, depression, menstrual problems, hair and nails, eczema, etc.
