natural herbal remedies Treatment - the letter "A"
1. Apricot
For me, as for the other inhabitants of the middle band, and the northern regions of Russia, it is first of all a treat, eaten fresh short-lived, and in small quantities. Most have to deal with dried apricots - dried apricots. Research has established that 100 grams of dried apricots have on the process of hematopoiesis is the same effect as 40 mg iron and 250 g of fresh beef liver. Even this fact alone testifies to the valuable therapeutic action of apricots on the blood-forming organs.
Kuraga rich potassium salts, sucrose, citric acid, nicotinic, salicylic and other organic acids, contains vitamin C, BB, F, and trace elements - iron, copper, manganese, cobalt. According to the content carotene apricots not inferior egg yolk.
Avicenna considered the most gentle apricot, useful and totally "feminine" fruit. In fact, many centuries verified that it improves hair growth, makes the skin soft fading, and most importantly - prolongs life, increases resistance to the emergence of malignant tumors.
In medical practice, justified the following recipes.
Heart disease. Pour a glass of boiling water 50 g dried apricots, to insist 3-4 hours, drain. Take half cup of infusion per day.
Or, minced 1 teaspoon of seeds pour 1 cup boiling water and stir until the state of emulsion. Drink per day in two or three steps. It is an excellent remedy for a weakened heart.
Blurred vision. Every day, take 1/4 cup of fresh juice, 3 times a day for 1-2 months (until last season).
ATHEROSCLEROSIS. Mince 100 g dried apricots. Take 1 tablespoon of the mass 2-3 times a day. A month later, a break for a couple of weeks and repeat the course several times if necessary.
I should add that Apricot juice is useful in diseases of the kidneys and bladder, anemia, nervous system disorders, calf cramps, low and zero-acidity of gastric juice, intestinal diseases accompanied by putrefaction.
* * *
However, not everyone can take these delicious and sweet fruit with impunity.
Apricots, especially dried apricots are contraindicated for patients with diabetes (in dried apricots to 84% sugar).
Fresh fruits are harmful for acute gastritis with high acidity of gastric juice. Can they badly hurt, and those who suffer from gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcer.
It is advisable to refuse treatment apricots in certain diseases of the liver, pancreatitis.
It should be remembered that contained in apricots provitamin A (carotene) is not absorbed by the thyroid gland at a reduced function. In such cases it is advisable to appoint a sick medical pure vitamin A.
You can not eat apricots on an empty stomach, especially on an empty stomach, as well as after the kebabs, pilaf or other indigestible food. Do not try immediately after the apricot drink cold water - diarrhea opens.
Fans of nuts from the seed should not be forgotten that among the several thousand varieties of apricots, especially wild, there are some seeds that may contain the strongest poison - hydrogen cyanide. A single dose of more than 20 g can cause poisoning.
2. Abraham DRUG
One patient had cirrhosis of the liver accompanied by persistent ascites - abdominal dropsy. Double pumped with 8-10 liters of fluid. They were powerless as medical drugs, diuretics and herbal teas. Abraham rescued. To him for help address only experienced herbalists, highly appreciating his strong laxative and diuretic effect, often irreplaceable when the abdominal dropsy, and strong edema caused by heart failure, sometimes with pleural effusion of lung cancer. Abraham used and heart disease, jaundice, mental, skin and other diseases. Fortunately, the plant does not belong to a well-known, very few people are familiar with it, in any pharmacy can not buy it and do not have any herbalist find, otherwise I would not avoid the frequent handling of the big trouble, because Abraham is very poisonous. Information about it can be found only in very rare reference books. Meanwhile, Abraham distributed throughout the European part of Russia, except for the most northern regions, as well as Ukraine, Belarus, the Caucasus, Western Siberia, Kazakhstan. His solitary white flowers can be seen on the raw places on the water meadows, along rivers, swamps. It occurs infrequently. Anyway, I could not collect it in the desired quantity.

HEART FAILURE. Incomplete teaspoon of herbs pour 150 ml of boiling water, 1 hour, drain. Take 50 ml of infusion 3 times a day. Since Abraham irritating to the stomach and intestines, this infusion is desirable to add 2-3 tablespoons of starch mucus. Heart disease, especially complicated by edema and ascites. 3-4 teaspoons of herbs, pour a glass of boiling water, 1 hour, drain. Take 1-2 tablespoons 2-3 times a day or every other day - set individually, as the majority of patients after taking the infusion appear watery stool, ascites and disappears almost six months. CHRONIC SKIN DISEASE (eczema, itching, pruritus, dermatitis, chronic wounds and ulcers). Dry plant, pound into a powder and take of 0.2 g 3 times a day with water. If you can not weigh, enjoy folk measure - "at the tip of a knife." Trophic ulcer. Crush badly fresh plant, applied to ulcers and bandage. Bandage with grass to change 3-4 times a day. Simultaneously taking 0.2 grams of grass three times a day. During one summer, you can get rid of this seemingly incurable sores. Due to the highly poisonous avranom should be used with caution, strictly dosing, preferably under the supervision of a physician. If poisoning occurs bloody diarrhea and colic, overdose causes convulsions, collapse. Abraham is contraindicated in enterocolitis and colitis in the liquid stool, erosive gastritis, gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcers, irritable bowel syndrome. For those who are behind the wheel: even a slight overdose or duration of treatment may make a person immune to the green part of the spectrum.
3. AMERICAN AGAVE
This indoor plant is often confused with aloe or consider it a kind, even though they belong to completely different families (agave - from the family Amaryllidaceae, and aloe - from the lily family). And the homeland they have different: agave - from South America, and aloe - from South Africa.
At agave, unlike aloe, no tree stem. Lush, green variegated leaves rise directly from the root system, and thorns in her very different. However, people no difference between these plants do not notice, often using the same therapeutic purposes, because the chemical and pharmacological properties have almost identical.
Agave is best known for the fact that in Mexico from its sap doing an illustrious national vodka - tequila. But aloe for these purposes is not necessary. As, however, there are some differences in prescription a number of diseases.
Spondylosis (accumulation of salts in the intervertebral neck). One medium-sized list (to be exact: 50 g) was crushed into mush, pour 200 ml of vodka, insist in a dark place August 10 days, shaking daily. After straining to take 10 to 15 drops 3 times a day before meals. An even greater effect at the same time with this medication will give the daily rubbing of the cervical vertebrae red elderberry tincture of berries or roots cinquefoil.
Ascites. 1 teaspoon of juice squeezed from the leaf, diluted in 0.5 liters of boiled water. Take 1 tablespoon 3 to 4 times a day. Age agave must be at least three years.
Jaundice, liver disease. Air dry the leaves of agave, grind into powder and take 0.2 to 0.5 g 3 times a day with the usual boiled water, but the effect can be enhanced by the infusion of herbs Repeshko or hips,
Sciatica (sciatica). Big leaf cut lengthwise and attach to the sore spot. Some with sensitive skin felt intense heat, even considerable pain, but this is not necessary to be afraid, no it does not cause complications. Reduce the irritation of the skin can be painful place anointed with fresh cottage cheese. This treatment of sciatica is considered one of the best and most reliable.
* * *
Contraindications have agave approximately the same as that of the aloe. But she has another feature. Agave is contraindicated for those planning to have children. The fact that the plant contains substances anordrin and dinordrin suppressing childbearing (but they can be an effective means of contraception).
4. Adonis - Adonis SPRING
The Bashkirs call it yellow snowdrop - its large flowers burning gold on the hot half-naked black hillocks immediately after snowmelt.
Doctors call it heart grass - used mainly for various heart diseases: the relatively light forms of chronic circulatory failure, cardiac neurosis, vegetative dystonia, infectious diseases, occurring with symptoms of weakening of cardiac activity.
Recipes to treat a lot of heart, but almost all of them boil down to one thing: to brew to take no more than 5 6 g per 200 ml of boiling water and take 1, rarely 2 tablespoons 3 times a day.
But there are at Adonis original, virtually unknown abilities. For example, Adonis is effective in drug seizures caused by cocaine. Pretreatment with infusion or tincture Adonis prevents deaths. These drugs also prevent offensive camphor convulsions and spasms caused by picrotoxin. Seizures can be caused by all sorts of reasons and, I think, would not want a simple recipe.
Convulsions. It is necessary to take 1 tablespoon of freshly dried herbs Adonis, pour 1.5 cups of boiling water, cover and insist in a dark place for 2 hours. Strain. Take 1 tablespoon 3 times a day. Infusion daily prepare fresh as it rapidly loses strength and sour.

Myositis. Mark 7 g of dry grass, pour 1 cup boiling water, 1 hour. Drink 1 tablespoon 3 times a day with pain in the muscles (and also in the joints).
* * *
As you can see, a small dose is given everywhere, since medicine is very strong. This does not mean that the disease has to go immediately. Herbal treatment generally takes time and perseverance.

Marshmallow roots contain much mucus and starch, sugar, aspartic acid, phytosterol, phosphates, pectin, vitamins, and flowers - solid essential oil. The main therapeutic effect depends on the presence of marshmallow in it of mucus and pectin. That's why its roots serve as a shroud, emollient, expectorant and anti-inflammatory agent in diseases of the respiratory tract: bronchitis, tracheitis, pneumonia, bronchial asthma.

Oranges are undesirable for pancreatitis, and high blood pressure can not eat them at night.
16. Aralia elata
FRUIT Aral For therapeutic purposes, is used more Manchurian Aralia, bushy, heart-shaped, Aralia Schmidt and some other species. Pharmacologically, they are not much different from each other, except that Schmidt Aralia less toxic compared to the Manchurian Aralia.
Водный настой и спиртовую настойку корней аралии назначают при астенических состояниях, депрессиях, гипотонии, при отдалённых последствиях черепномозговых травм с астеническими проявлениями, при шизофрении с астеноипохондрическим синдромом, неврастении, импотенции, психастении, физической и умственной усталости, постгриппозном арахноидите. Используют аралию в виде отвара корней и листьев приболезнях почек и желудочно кишечного тракта, сахарном диабете, простудных заболеваниях, энурезе.
Готовые препараты и настойки имеются в аптеках.
* * *
Препараты аралии противопоказаны при эпилепсии, гиперкинезах, лихорадочных состояниях.
Нельзя применять их при нарушении сердечной деятельности.
Аралия обладает тонизирующим действием, поэтому исключается при бессоннице, повышенной возбудимости.
Нельзя пользоваться аралией при брадикардии — замедлении сердечных сокращений (менее 60 ударов в минуту).
17. АРАХИС ПОДЗЕМНЫЙ
Любимые в народе земляные орешки тоже находят лечебное применение. В сыром или слегка поджаренном виде они рекомендуются при гемофилии для остановки кровотечений.
Арахис полезен детям, страдающим экссудативным диатезом. Особенно эффективен он при геморрагических диатезах — заболеваниях крови, при которых наблюдаются резкое понижение её свёртываемости и множественными кровоизлияниями.
* * *
Арахис противопоказан при герпесе.
Не следует увлекаться арахисом при тромбозах, тромбофлебитах.
Арахис богат пуринами. Приходится проявлять осторожность при наличии песка в почках, мочевом пузыре и вообще тем, у кого высокая степень риска кристаллургии оксалата кальция в моче.
Очень опасны заплесневевшие орешки — их употребление может свести на нет лечение, вызвав ещё большее кровотечение.
18. АРБУЗ ОБЫКНОВЕННЫЙ
Нет необходимости расхваливать его вкусовые качества, тем более лечебные — при сезонном лечении заболеваний почек, сердечно сосудистой системы, мочекислого диатеза и даже диабета — с учётом назначенной нормы углеводов.
Арбуз быстро восстанавливает антитоксическую функцию печени, очень полезен тем, кто переболел желтухой.
Как можно чаще надо употреблять арбуз при склерозе, подагре, артритах, ревматизме, ожирении.
Арбузные корки активизируют работу микроорганизмов толстого кишечника, лечат дисбактериоз у детей и взрослых.
ВОСПАЛЕНИЕ ТОЛСТОГО КИШЕЧНИКА. Высушенные арбузные корки измельчить, 5 столовых ложек залить 2 стаканами кипятка, закрыть крышкой и настоять до охлаждения. Процедить. Принимать по 0,5 стакана 4 раза в день.
ГЕЛЬМИНТОЗ. Высушить в духовке арбузные семечки, измельчить с помощью мясорубки, смешать с молоком в соотношении 1:10. Принимать в течение дня. Лучше всего выпить сразу 2 стакана между приёмами пищи.
Другой рецепт: свежие арбузные семечки раздавить, но не молоть. 100 г (5 столовых ложек) залить 1 л холодной воды, довести до кипения, прокипятить на медленном огне 45 минут, чтоб едва держать на стадии кипения. Снять с огня, дать остыть. Принимать по 1 стакану 3 раза в день.
Можно и так: 1 столовую ложку семян залить 1 стаканом холодной кипячёной воды, настоять 8 часов (можно поставить настаиваться на ночь). Принимать по 50 мл 3 дня подряд, всякий раз готовя свежий настой. Говорят, действует сильней дынных семечек.
МИГРЕНЬ, ГОЛОВНАЯ БОЛЬ. Медленными глотками, не спеша, выпить 2 стакана арбузного сока. А ко лбу привязать толстую арбузную корку. Боль отступает и долго не возвращается.
ДИАТЕЗ МОЧЕКИСЛЫЙ. Взять 2 столовые ложки измельчённых корок на 0,5 л воды, кипятить на самом слабом огне 5 минут, настоять 2 3 часа, процедить, пить по 0,5 стакана 3 раза в день за полчаса до еды.
ИШЕМИЧЕСКАЯ БОЛЕЗНЬ СЕРДЦА. Выжать сок арбуза, добавить сок 2 яблок (примерно поровну). Принимать ежедневно в период осеннего сезона.
ГЕМОРРОЙ. Тампоны с соком ставить на узлы. Хорошо останавливает кровотечение.
* * *
Рецептов существует великое множество, только у меня их больше пятидесяти — от артрита, аденомы простаты, высокой температуры, желчно каменной болезни, запора, изжоги, отёков, ангины, вегетососудистой дистонии, остеохондроза и т. д. Я привёл в пример лишь некоторые, необходимые для очищения организма от паразитов, поддержки сердца, регулирования обменных процессов в организме, лечения наиболее часто встречающихся болезней.
Вместе с этим нельзя забывать и об обратной стороне. Чаще всего мне приходилось сталкиваться с отравлениями. Существует одно весомое «но»: если в мякоти арбуза имеется хотя бы несколько жёлтых уплотнённых участков, напоминающих желваки, размерами от 0,3 до 2 сантиметров и более, такой арбуз ни в коем случае не должен попадать на стол. Арбуз имеет свойство накапливать в себе селитру, фосфор и другие химикаты. Перекормленный удобрениями и пестицидами для быстрого созревания и долгого хранения, он очень опасен. Даже у здорового человека такой арбуз вызовет тошноту, рвоту, сильные желудочные боли, понос. Ещё более опасен он для детей и почечных больных с хроническим нефрозом, нефритом, пиелонефритом — быстро наступает почечная колика, тяжёлая диспепсия с рвотой, резко ухудшается самочувствие, а у детей обезвоживается организм, появляются судороги.
Арбуз противопоказан при колитах и поносах.
Нельзя прельщаться арбузами больным с сердечнососудистыми заболеваниями с тенденцией задержки жидкости в организме.
Больным атеросклерозом не рекомендуется употреблять арбузное варенье и арбузный мёд.
Арбуз принято подавать на десерт. Здесь необходимо учесть, что переваривается он не в желудке, а в кишечнике, и если перемешается с другой пищей, требующей желудочного переваривания, быстро разлагается и начинает бродить, образуя много газов, что противопоказано больным при метеоризме.
19. АРНИКА ГОРНАЯ
У неё очень много показаний при самых различных заболеваниях, вплоть до онкологии. Используются цветки и корни.
Настойка из цветков обладает сильным кровоостанавливающим действием и особенно эффективна при послеродовых кровотечениях, связанных с эндокринными и воспалительными заболеваниями яичников, при осложнениях после аборта. Полезна такая настойка в восстановительном периоде после кровоизлияния в мозг.
Настойка из корней действует несколько иначе. Её назначают при сердечных ангиоспазмах, атеросклеротическом кардиосклерозе, миокардитах.
Арника находит применение при язве желудка и двенадцатиперстной кишки, бронхите, подагре, хроническом ревматизме, гриппе, эпилепсии, сотрясении мозга. Арнику горную вполне могут заменить другие виды арники: арника Шамиссо и арника густооблиственная.
МАТОЧНЫЕ КРОВОТЕЧЕНИЯ. Кладут 1 столовую ложку цветков на 1 стакан кипятка, закрывают крышкой и настаивают 4 часа. Принимают по 50 мл 3 4 раза в день.
ХОЛЕЦИСТИТ. Стаканом кипятка залить 3 столовые ложки цветков, закрыть крышкой и поставить стакан в кипящую водяную баню. Парить 15 минут, настаивать 45 минут, процедить. Пить по 1 столовой ложке 3 раза в день после еды с молоком.
ЭПИЛЕПСИЯ, БОЛЕЗНИ СЕРДЦА. Мелко нарезать цветы, 1 столовую ложку залить 100 мл водки, настоять 3 4 недели, процедить. Принимать по 30 40 капель 3 раза в день на воде или в травяном настое (в настое синеголовника или борщевика, либо на других назначенных целителем травах — для большей эффективности).
МИГРЕНЬ, ОБИЛЬНЫЕ МЕНСТРУАЦИИ. 2 чайные ложки корней залить 2 стаканами воды, кипятить на малом огне 5 7 минут в открытой посуде, затем, закрыв крышкой, настоять 1 час, процедить. Принимать по 1 столовой ложке 2 раза в день перед едой.
* * *
Арника входит в число ядовитых растений. При передозировке в лучшем случае прошибёт сильный пот и чувствительно проявится упадок сердечной деятельности. Хуже, если появятся ноющие боли в суставах и конечностях, судорожные подёргивания, озноб, одышка, тошнота, рвота, боль в животе. Возможен смертельный исход. Наружное применение (при ушибах, синяках, кровоподтёках, трофических язвах) тоже требует осторожности, так как может привести к острым кожным заболеваниям.
Внутреннее применение арники может вызвать запор.
20. АРОНИЯ ЧЕРНОПЛОДНАЯ ЧЁРНАЯ РЯБИНА
Ягоды чёрной рябины назначаются как лечебное средство при разных патологических нарушениях в свёртывающей системе крови, прежде всего при геморрагических диатезах, капилляротоксикозах, различных кровотечениях, атеросклерозе, сахарном диабете, лучевых поражениях, аллергических состояниях, гломерулонефритах, в комплексной терапии тиреотоксикоза, гипертонии.
Фармацевтическая промышленность, извлекая из ягод необходимые химические вещества, изготавливает из аронии таблетки и настойки. Промышленная обработка, на мой взгляд, лишает аронию целого ряда ценных свойств.
При перечисленных заболеваниях предпочтительно принимать свежий сок из ягод по 50 мл, в некоторых случаях по 100 мл сока за полчаса до еды. Или пользоваться настоем сушёных ягод из расчёта 1 2 столовые ложки на стакан кипятка.
* * *
Следует помнить, что плоды и сок аронии черноплодной противопоказаны при гастритах с высокой кислотностью, при язве желудка и двенадцатиперстной кишки.
Арония противопоказана при повышенной свёртываемости крови, тромбофлебите, варикозном расширении вен. Лечение аронией исключается при гипотонии.
При склонности к запорам подход индивидуальный.
21. АРОННИК ПЯТНИСТЫЙ
