Councils with honey in folk medicine

Aloe (century, Sabur).

For medicinal purposes, a thickened leaf juice is used. In folk medicine, the juice of fresh aloe leaves mixed with fat and honey in the following proportions is used in the treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis in the following proportions: honey of high-grade bee, especially lime honey, 100 grams of butter, 100% of internal fat, 100% of fresh pork fat, 15 fresh aloe, cocoa powder 100 grams. Take one tablespoon per glass of warm milk in the morning and evening.

Althaea officinalis. Over a thousand years ago Avicenna pointed to the high therapeutic properties of the altea. At present, marshmallows are used for inflammation of the urinary tract and respiratory organs. Tea made from althea flowers (one tablespoon of flowers per glass of water) with honey is taken over a tablespoon several times a day for the treatment of the above diseases.

The Pharmacological Committee of the Scientific Medical Council of the Ministry of Health approved thoracic tea No. 4, which includes: the root of the althea – 2 parts, the leaves of the mother-and-stepmother – 2 parts, oregano – 1 part. It is very good to drink this tea with honey. To a glass of breast tea add a tablespoon of honey, which enhances the therapeutic activity of this tea.

Cowberry – an evergreen shrub of the family of cowberry. For medicinal purposes, mainly leaves of cranberries, which are widely and successfully used in folk medicine in the form of broths with kidney stones, rheumatism and gout. Apply infusion (20 g of cranberry leaves to a glass of water) and tea from cranberry leaves with honey (a tablespoon on a glass of infusion or tea), adding 20 g of honey for each glass of infusion.

The culture fluid of the tea mushroom on honey solution. Numerous observations have shown that the infusion of the tea fungus is a cultural fluid that regulates the activity of the gastrointestinal

tract (suppresses putrefactive pathogenic microflora), increases the protective properties of the body and works well for atherosclerosis, as well as for some other diseases. These data of traditional medicine are confirmed by laboratory studies and clinical observations of many researchers.

For the purpose of prevention, the culture fluid of the tea fungus can be consumed throughout life. A healthy person can drink 2-3 cups of culture fluid of a tea fungus a day, and the patient needs a doctor’s control.

People suffering from chronic diseases of the intestines, liver and bile ducts are advised to lie down on their right side after a reception of the culture liquid of the tea fungus and lie down for about 20 minutes so that the drink, without lingering in the stomach, quickly passes into the intestine. Take a healthy drink should be at least 2 months, being all the time under medical supervision.

In diseases of the stomach with high acidity, the culture liquid should be consumed with alkalis (soda, magnesia) or with alkaline mineral waters (Borjom, Slavic or Smirnovka). Shakaryan and Danieloz believe that the activity of the culture liquid is directly dependent on the sugar content in the nutrient medium: in the presence of 10% sugar, its activity is twice as high as at 5%.

The culture liquid is very useful for children, and it can be recommended instead of carbonated water, kvass, sietro, etc. Given that honey bees have good nutritional and therapeutic properties, it is recommended to add it to the culture fluid of the tea fungus.

Experiments showed that the most pleasant and useful drink was honey culture liquid, which contained 5% honey, 5% sugar and was enriched with vitamins C and B1.

A culture fluid containing 5% honey and 5% sugar has stronger bactericidal properties against the intestinal microbes than the culture liquid made from a single sugar (10%). However, it should be noted that high concentrations of honey suppress the growth and vital activity of the tea fungus.

Seven-eight-day vitaminized honey liquid of a tea fungus can be bottled, carefully corked and stored in a home refrigerator or in a cellar.
