сирень.

На фото у тебя сирень обыкновенная, Syringa vulgaris. Май в Валге без неё не май :)

Пахнет она божественно, но польза у неё тоже есть. Хотя тут есть важный нюанс.

Чем полезна сирень

1. В народной медицине

Её использовали веками, особенно цветки и листья:

• Противовоспалительное и обезболивающее — настойку цветков на водке втирали в суставы при артрите, радикулите, подагре. Бабушкин рецепт для спины • Жаропонижающее и потогонное — чай из сушёных цветков пили при простуде, чтобы сбить температуру • Для почек — отвар листьев считался мягким мочегонным • Для кожи — настойкой протирали раны, ушибы, угревую сыпь. Она дезинфицирует 

2. В ароматерапии

Запах сирени реально успокаивает нервную систему. Снимает тревожность, помогает при бессоннице и головной боли. Просто поставить букет в комнату — уже терапия.

3. В кулинарии

Да, её едят! Но только цветки и в малых дозах.

• Сиреневый сахар — перетри цветки с сахаром. Пахнет весной, идеально в чай и выпечку • Сироп и варенье — из цветков варят ароматный сироп для лимонадов и десертов • Засахаренные цветки — для украшения тортов • Мёд — пчёлы её обожают, сиреневый мёд очень душистый Важно: техника безопасности ⚠️

Сирень — не ромашка. Она слабоядовита из-за гликозида сирингина.

Правила:

1. Не есть много. 5-10 цветков в салате — ок. Съесть целый куст — будет отравление 2. Только цветки. Кора, листья, зелёные части — внутрь нельзя. Они горькие и токсичные 3. Убери пестики и тычинки. Горечь и вся гадость в них. Для еды нужны только лепестки 4. Противопоказания: Беременность, кормление, детям до 12 лет, при гломерулонефрите, аменорее. Аллергикам тоже аккуратно 5. Не путай. Есть ядовитая "персидская сирень", Melia azedarach. Но у нас в Эстонии растёт почти всегда безопасная Syringa vulgaris, как у тебя на фото. У неё листья сердцевидные, как на твоём снимке 

Признаки отравления: Тошнота, горечь во рту, головная боль, сыпь. Если переел — много воды и к врачу.

Что можно сделать прямо сейчас

Простейшая настойка для суставов:

1. Набей банку свежими цветками сирени на 2/3 2. Залей водкой до верха 3. Настаивай 3 недели в тёмном месте, иногда встряхивай 4. Процеди. Втирай в больные суставы на ночь 

Внутрь эту настойку пить нельзя! Только наружно.

А для чая просто завари 1 ч.л. сушёных цветков на стакан кипятка. Но не увлекайся — чашка в день максимум.

Так что сирень — это не только красиво и ностальгически. Это ещё и аптечка с грядки. Главное — знать меру.

Будешь делать сиреневый сахар?

а на лугу...

Давай разберем, что из этого майского набора реально можно использовать. Но сразу скажу: пробуй только если на 100% уверен в растении и место чистое, подальше от дорог и собак :)

Пастушья сумка, Capsella bursa-pastoris

Главная звезда народной медицины.

В еду:

• Молодые листья до цветения — самые нежные. Вкус редисочный, с горчинкой. Кидай в салаты, в зелёные щи, в окрошку. В Китае и Корее её вообще специально выращивают как зелень • Семена — можно использовать как приправу вместо горчицы или перца. Размолоть и добавить в соус 

В лечебных целях:

Её прозвали "природным кровоостанавливающим". Трава сужает сосуды и повышает свёртываемость крови. Раньше отвар пили при носовых, маточных кровотечениях. Ещё она мягкое мочегонное.

Важно: Нельзя беременным и при повышенной свёртываемости крови, тромбофлебите. И не пить отвары долго без перерыва.

Одуванчик, Taraxacum officinale

Тут съедобно вообще всё.

В еду:

• Листья — до цветения, пока не горькие. Вымочи 30 мин в солёной воде от горечи и в салат. По витаминам обгоняет шпинат • Цветки — из них варят "одуванчиковый мёд" или варенье. Лепестки можно в салаты для красоты • Корни — осенью их копают, сушат, жарят и делают заменитель кофе. Без кофеина, но с привкусом цикория • Бутоны — маринуют как каперсы 

Польза: Гонит желчь, помогает печени, мочегонное. Витаминов A, C, K — вагон.

Клевер ползучий, Trifolium repens

Белый клевер тоже съедобен.

В еду:

• Листья и молодые цветы — в салат. Вкус нейтральный, гороховый • Сушёные цветки — заваривать как чай. Пахнет мёдом • Муку делали — в голодные годы сушили и мололи в муку для хлеба 

Польза: Отхаркивающее, лёгкое противовоспалительное. В нём есть фитоэстрогены, так что беременным много нельзя.

Сурепка обыкновенная, Barbarea vulgaris

Можно, но осторожно.

В еду: Молодые листья до цветения — в салат или щи. Вкус горчичный, острый. После цветения сильно горчит.

Важно: В больших количествах может быть токсична для печени из-за сапонинов. Так что пару листиков в салат — да, а тазиками есть не стоит. Скоту её много давать нельзя.

Что НЕ надо трогать

Злаки на фото определять сложно, и среди них бывают спорынья и другие неприятные штуки. Их лучше просто не трогать.

Как собирать:

1. Место — минимум 100м от дорог, промзон, свалок. В Валге лучше иди на луг за городом 2. Время — утром, как роса сошла, в сухую погоду 3. Мой хорошо — в траве живут яйца паразитов 

Хочешь простой рецепт? Попробуй весенний салат: горсть молодых листьев одуванчика + горсть листьев пастушьей сумки + 3-4 листика клевера + варёное яйцо + сметана. Вымочи одуванчик 20 мин в солёной воде перед этим.

Если надумаешь что-то заваривать для лечения — сначала к врачу. Травы — это тоже лекарства, с противопоказаниями.

Что попробуешь первым?

Elbow joints are hurting on the night time , but a very strange is on the summer.

 But one day, on the cool weather am all day walked in clothes with long sleeves ,thus night aches are not displayed. After am checked my wardrobe, and put separately all t shirts with short sleeves  .Am describing it, that 1 millions year a human covered with a wool, like a monkey, and remember moves about our grandfathers, without t shirrs, woollen protected from wind, trousers are long, and   shirts with a long sleeves. Knees, elbows are covered always, but sometimes its lead to absurd. When one day on the market I met my friend is 65 y.old grandfather with shorts, Am loudly said, hey Mihailich! You are forgetting  wore trousers, but later he never wore these shorts. And with an elbow joint has been a whole epic, by right hand am not ability to tale from a tree a fruit as higher  for head, inclining taking his, if he was fallen. Doctors are said by TV a cuff weak , and doing a surgery to sew her. And a few times/day my hand popped out from this cuff, and through ache felt , that bones are not on the place.

I realized that joint not hurt, and tried moves, which are before not accessed to me, but not hurt. But if to by left ear to scratch through a spine. Maybe organism self trying restoring are lost functions . Organs are worned out ,  thus he is   a needing building material, like for builder are woods, axe , and for mason are bricks, cement  .And in our case is collagen, is a very benefit for joints and skin of human, when a gelatine selling in every market.

Our small friend stories.

 

A cough for cough is discord.

 If a cough not of cold , as suffering  of   hypertension a what I  must to do? Therapeutist  prescribed pills against cough, and recommending hot milk with soda  and honey, but nothing helping this. Maybe cough reason is in others .

Dry cough in raised pressure or other heart pathologies calling a h ear, answers therapist, by a high category Stepanova. He is not in cold tide, but a having reaction on the remedies components using, as inhibitors, beta blockers as diroton, enap, capoten, enalapril, as metoprorol, egilok, concor. If dosages are lowering, possibly cough will not worry you, but would it affect on pressure lowering?  Thus,  better use modern remedies against pressure with a most soft effect, are not causing dried cough .  Example antagonists of calcium are nimodipin, isradipin, riodipin , nicardipin ,  aren't    provoking cough, lowering pressure till a norm level, and lead in norm carbohydrate metabolism, increasing shortening muscle activity of heart, preventing depression development, and not improving kidneys function. Anti coughing effect having and other remedies for normalization pressure arterial are diuretics, AS WAVILY LOWERING PRESSURE of diuretics explaining for decreasing blood size circulating, and with furosemide  are prescribing by short courses  indapamin, veroshpiron, spironolacton,   arifon .And,  here prescribed panangin with calium, as in diuretic using calium you are loosing. And modern combined remedied against hypertension and not causing cough as ecvator, logimax, tarca, micardis plus. And,   they are new and having prolonging effects, minimal side effects, maximal healing effect. But they are not self using or prescribing, just your doctor will decide it! 

Conservativily cataract not cures.

 On my 80 y.old doctors on the right eye found cataract, prescribed surgery, but endocrinologist  not gives as allow for surgery ,that on 2015 y. in me removed thyroid, that  of oncology sign.

Very ask you explain ,why my surgery not allowed?Am worry about  other eye.

Dear Anna, surgery for cataract extraction is very popular , and put in Russian on the flow, as she is very fast and less injured  and not need in an especially ready answers' by   ophthalmologist, candidate of medical science Amhanitskaja  . And  doing her under local anaesthesia at ambulatory conditions, thus  you will not leave at stationary , restoring time are 2 weeks , but individual cases of pathologies in you. Am not met in my practise with  prohibits by specialist other to a surgery doing. Yes, its of sugar diabetes happening or metabolism hard after surgery on restoring time, and its displaying long and acute, but endocrine pathology in a not affecting on the extraction of cataract. However, we are not received your dates to rate your situation.  But also having and urgent surgeries as emergency for changing lens, when  swollen cataract is a complicated for other systems of eye, as acute glaucoma attack displaying .Here  and in hard cases we are doing surgery, not matter on other disorders surgery is fast, on the short dates.

 And big bonus for these surgeries are limiting not having by age, as on a limiting part  by micro-   instruments    with minimal affecting on an all other organism. Thus,  am not understood are endocrinologist prohibition on the surgery. If a having surgery indications for removing lens, thus a need to do a surgery. Conservatively cataract not curing!
