Time-tested recipes of traditional medicine. The use of folk remedies is explained by their availability, effectiveness and ease of use. We hope that the recipes we have collected will help you with treatment and prevention.
Hello everyone!
Recently, I have very often come across information that everything can be cured with drugs.
That they are much more effective than pills, and that modern medicine does not understand anything about this.
What to look for salvation from various diseases is necessary in the recipes of traditional healers, in old books on traditional medicine, where herbs are one of the main components of any remedy.
Many people really think that herbal treatment is simple and very beneficial.
I do not quite agree with such a philistine statement, and therefore decided to write this post on how to be treated with herbs correctly and safely.
In this article, you will learn:
How to be treated with herbs correctly and safely - the secrets of phyto-therapy
I graduated from the Medical University, Faculty of Pharmacy.
And one of the most important and difficult subjects that we studied on the course was pharmacognosy - the science of medicinal plants.
We studied this subject for five years, and it was more difficult to pass an exam or get a credit in it than in any chemistry or pharmacology.
How we learned these herbs, only those who studied there know.
We not only memorized the names of plants and their area of application, but also worked with a microscope, did chemical reactions, determining the chemical composition of raw materials and its structure, examined the roots and leaves in a section, sketched all this, memorized and crammed.
In the spring, we went to the procurement of medicinal raw materials, analyzed it using modern research methods and, of course, studied its full application.
I still remember a huge table, filled with Petri dishes with dry medicinal raw materials, somewhere whole, somewhere crushed.
From this abundance, it was necessary to choose what they would call you and prove that it was exactly that collection or that plant, by physical and chemical means.
Therefore, I can with great confidence refute the false statement that medicinal plants are the lot of knowledge of herbalist grandmothers or traditional healers. Official medicine knows no less, but even more about how to treat them and how to do it correctly.
It’s even hard for me to imagine how much the latest research is carried out annually for medicinal plants, this science never stands still.
In the conditions of modern ecology, plants change their composition, which means that their field of application may change or new contraindications appear, and the latest technologies allow discovering new medicinal properties of known or unfamiliar plants.
Therefore, you should not rely so much on old folk remedies, but it is best to buy a modern reference book of medicinal plants, which will indicate their chemical composition, medicinal properties and methods of application, as well as contraindications, and be sure to use them correctly.
Treatment with medicinal herbs - important rules and tips
To begin with, I would like to voice several features of herbal treatment that few people pay attention to:
- Well, firstly, I want to say right away that medicinal herbs do not work miracles, and it is impossible to cure all existing diseases with them!
If you hear somewhere a story about how a person completely healed himself with an infusion of oats or chamomile flowers from cancer in the fourth stage, consider that a miracle of healing just happened to him, for the most part, thanks to his faith in himself, in God, in life, into this medicinal plant, or maybe he was doing something else that you don't know about.
Try herbal remedies for muscular dystrophy, ALS, multiple sclerosis, meningitis ...
- Herbal treatments are not as safe as many believe.
Medicinal raw materials can cause severe allergies, poisoning, start pathological processes in the body, negatively affect the development of the fetus in pregnant women, potency in men, and much more.
Therefore, before drinking any "harmless" herb, be sure to familiarize yourself with the possible side effects that it can give and its contraindications for use.
Especially dangerous are illiterately compiled medicinal fees, herbs collected in ecologically polluted areas, as well as taking herbs simultaneously with medications.
Always remember what time we live in, and plants, like people, absorb everything from the environment.
- A number of medicinal herbs have a strictly defined safe dosage.
Roughly speaking, there are herbs that, in excess of the dosage, turn into poison.
- Medicinal herbs contain "harmful chemicals"
Well, I already hinted at this in paragraph 2, in medicinal raw materials, in addition to useful microelements, there are harmful ones (salts of heavy metals). Especially they abound in those that gathered along the auto and railway roads and in other environmentally unfavorable places.
- Medicinal herbs should not be consumed for a long time.
Some herbs are addictive, others, with prolonged use, depress the nervous system, cause an overdose, which is accompanied by negative consequences, so the course of herbal treatment is individual.
For example, mint tea, with constant use, greatly lowers blood pressure, "safe" chamomile, with prolonged use, disrupts the absorption of iron, wormwood can provoke a violation of the nervous system, call out convulsions and fainting.
Therefore, "healing" with herbs from one disease, you can easily acquire another.
How to properly and safely be treated with herbs?
So, remember the basic rules - how to be treated with herbs:
- In order for the herb to retain all the useful components, it is very important to collect it according to all the rules.
Taking into account the place of collection, the time of collection, as well as the conditions of its preparation and drying. How to do it correctly, you can read in any good reference book of medicinal plants.
It is best to collect herbs yourself, observing all the rules for harvesting, drying and storage.
Or buy medicinal herbs from time-tested manufacturers, and in specialized pharmacies, where you will be provided with all product quality certificates, including documents for its radiological control.
I do not advise anyone to buy herbs in the markets from unknown people, no one knows exactly what may be in them, where they were collected!
- You need to brew in a glass container in a water bath.
It is important to follow this rule because plants are able to interact with various chemical components and accumulate them in themselves, therefore boiling in metal, plastic containers can be dangerous.
- In order to prepare an effective medicine from medicinal herbs, certain rules must be followed.
Medicinal raw materials are usually used in the form of aqueous infusions and decoctions or alcoholic tinctures.
The infusion is prepared from soft plant materials (flowers, leaves, herbs), decoctions from hard plant materials (roots, bark, dry fruits)
Usually infusions and decoctions are prepared in a ratio of 1:10
- How to prepare a medicinal infusion?
We prepare raw materials, take 1 tablespoon of dry chopped herbs. Fill with a glass of hot water and boil in a water bath for 15 minutes. Then remove from heat and refrigerate for 45 minutes. We filter.
- How to prepare a decoction of herbs?
Cooking raw materials, 1 tbsp. l for 1 glass of water, fill with hot water and boil in a water bath for 30 minutes. Remove from heat and refrigerate for 10 minutes. We filter it hot.
The only exception is that which is prepared according to special rules.
It is not necessary to increase or decrease the boiling and infusion time.
This is the optimal ratio in which all the active substances leave the medicinal raw material in an infusion or decoction, do not change, do not inactivate, but act with optimal benefits for the body.
The strained infusion or broth is brought to 100 ml with water and taken in the indicated dosage.
The shelf life of aqueous infusions and decoctions is no more than three days in the refrigerator
- How to prepare an alcoholic herbal tincture?
Medicinal crushed raw materials are poured with 70% alcohol in a ratio of 1:10, infused for 30 days in a dark cool place, hermetically sealed, then filtered and stored in a cool dark place for up to 6 months.
- It is necessary to take infusions and decoctions while observing the indicated dosage.
- When treating with herbs, they should not be consumed simultaneously with medications, alcohol, fatty and spicy foods.
Are the herbs in sachets good for you?
I have a twofold attitude towards them.
On the one hand, it is convenient, but on the other hand, the technology for preparing infusions and decoctions is completely violated.
And if you take into account that they are made like tea in bags (low-quality raw materials after sifting), it is better to buy herbs in bulk for treatment.
Well, and also, I would like to voice such a moment as to be treated with herbs correctly.
When you come across a recommendation for herbal treatment or herbal recipe, before you start using it, open a good reference book of medicinal plants (which contains the full chemical composition, structure, properties, etc.) and read:
- composition and contraindications of this medicinal raw material,
- pay attention to its dosage,
- component compatibility
- methods of application.
And only after that, make a decision whether to use this fee or not.
Some herbs today are credited with such incredible effects that you are amazed !!!
Therefore, before you believe in another myth that some kind of herb or collection can cure, for example, alcoholism, read the official research, look at its chemical composition, that there is something in this herb that can really help solve this problem and draw your own conclusions.
Well, and finally, I really love medicinal products, I collect and prepare them myself.
I always have at home, thyme, mint, oregano and many others.
I am convinced that when used correctly, for certain diseases, they can have an effective therapeutic and cosmetological effect, restore strength and energy.
Therefore, be sure to use medicinal herbs, but do it right, and then, herbal medicine will bring you and your body real benefits.

In folk medicine, the practice of using herbal remedies for the treatment of various diseases is of great importance. Herbalists and traditional healers over the centuries have accumulated knowledge and experience, systematized the use of plants in traditional medicine, thanks to which modern people can apply it in their lives. Let's discuss how you can improve your health with knowledge of the healing properties of plants and herbs in your arsenal.
Plants in traditional medicine - classification and their application
Plants in folk medicine play a significant role. However, it should be understood that this concept is very broad. Plants include trees, shrubs, and grasses. However, when it comes to herbs, we do not mean trees and shrubs, we mean the herbaceous creations of nature.
Herbs in folk medicine are herbaceous plants such as mint, thyme, St. John's wort. Shrubs include rose hips, black currants, viburnum. Trees are perennial representatives of the plant world with a solid trunk and branches branching from it. Examples of trees used in traditional medicine are pine, cedar, linden.
If we talk about herbs, then almost all of their parts are used as medicinal raw materials in folk medical practice - underground (roots), aboveground (leaves and inflorescences). The aboveground part is also called simply "grass", including everything that the plant has above the ground. The use of shrubs most often means the use of the fruits of these plants. When it comes to trees, in folk medicine there are recipes for making decoctions and infusions from tree bark, buds and cones of conifers, fruits (for example, walnuts) and flowers (for example, linden). Each part of the plant contains something useful and valuable for human health.
Use in traditional medicine
When preparing the bark, its boiling is often used, since only it can extract useful substances into water (decoction). It usually lasts up to 30 minutes. It is also possible long-term soaking in alcohol or vodka (tincture, alcoholic infusion). Its duration is approximately 10-14 days. If you first turn the bark into powder, then it will be easier to extract non-useful components from it. Here, pouring boiling water over it with waiting until it cools down (infusion) can also come to the rescue. When cooking in a thermos - up to 8 hours. Extraction of medicinal substances not only into water, but also into oil (oil extract) can also be used.
For cooking raw materials, simple boiling is used, when parts of plants are poured with water and boiled or cooking in a water bath. In this case, the raw material is exposed to less temperature influences. The simplest water bath is a container with water floating on the surface of water poured into another container (larger in diameter).
Let's now look at a few examples or recipes for the use of trees, shrubs and herbs in traditional medicine.
Trees in folk medicine
Conifers have a powerful healing power. The needles have such a rich vitamin and mineral composition, as well as a high content of essential oils, phytoncides and mucus, that knowledgeable people do not neglect this gift of nature.
Needles for colds and SARS
This recipe comes from Siberia. You need to take 100 g of needles, wash it and pour boiling water (1 l). Put on fire, as soon as the liquid begins to boil, remove from the stove. Cover the pan with a lid, wrap with a towel. Leave the broth in this form for an hour, then strain. You need to drink coniferous broth 100 ml 4 times a day. For greater effect and flavor, you can put a couple of spoons of honey in it.
Pine buds for unproductive cough
50 grams of raw materials (pine buds) are boiled for 20 minutes over low heat in half a liter of milk. After removing the container from the heat, insist for 1 hour. After adding a little honey, milk broth is drunk often and little by little throughout the day.
Pine cones - protection against stroke
To put the vessels in order and avoid a stroke, a tincture is prepared from mature pine cones. To do this, take 12 cones, wash, pour in alcohol (0.5 liters), close the container tightly and remove it to infuse for 2 weeks. Next, the infusion must be filtered. Drink 5 ml every day after breakfast.
Shrubs in traditional medicine
It is not for nothing that the fruits of various shrubs are used in folk medicine - they are able not only to have a general strengthening effect on the body, but also to save a person from numerous diseases.
Rosehip for hypertension and edema
It is very easy to make a rosehip broth - a liter of boiling water is poured into an enamel pan, washed rosehip fruits (100 g) are put there. Put it all on a water bath and turn on the fire. Boil the fruit for at least 20 minutes, and then pour everything into a thermos for infusion. After an hour and a half, the broth can be drunk. Dosage regimen - 100 ml three times a day. The duration of the course is 14-21 days.
Kalina for sore throat and gums
Viburnum juice is a cure for many diseases. Fresh, it is used for angina, stomatitis and other inflammatory processes in the mouth. To get fresh viburnum juice, the washed berries are ground through a fine sieve and filtered, separating the cake and drupe. The juice is used to lubricate the gums, wounds and mouth ulcers. With angina, it is diluted 1: 1 with water and gargled as often as possible.
The use of herbs in traditional medicine
Water decoctions, alcohol infusions and medicinal teas are usually prepared from herbs. Often they are used in folk medicine for the preparation of oil extracts, which are then used both externally and internally. Consider a few herbal recipes.
Peppermint for vomiting and nausea
Mint tea can help treat nausea and vomiting. Mint leaves (1 tablespoon) are boiled in a water bath in a glass of water for 10 minutes. After removing it from the heat, pour it into a thermos and let it settle. When vomiting, drink in small sips every 15 minutes. For nausea - 40 ml every 3 hours.
Thyme for insomnia and migraines
Thyme herb (1 tablespoon) should be brewed in a thermos with half a liter of boiling water. Close and leave for 1 hour. The filtered water infusion is drunk before bedtime. The dosage is 80-100 ml. For headaches, take this remedy in the morning and evening.
Thanks to the centuries-old experience of folk healing, the use of plants, in particular, the use of herbs in folk medicine, is possible for the benefit of people in our time. The plant world that surrounds us contains a huge potential, which, perhaps, will soon open up in full force, which will make it possible for humanity to completely abandon chemical and synthetic medicines.

Herbal medicine does not give results instantly, but its regular and correct use makes it possible to cope with the disease without reducing immunity. The words of the founder of "pharmaceutical biology", spoken in 1909 by Alexander Chirkh, are appropriate here. He wrote: "When-medicine-thoroughly-spoils-its-stomach-by-using-drugs-chemical-synthesis-it-will-return-to-the-most-ancient-remedies-of-mankind-medicinal-plants-and-drugs." So the use of plants is the future of modern medicine.

(dosage not specified), which is given to drink alcoholics. The remedy is
relieves the desire for alcohol.
Note: various measures are currently being taken in the country
fight against alcoholism. It is necessary to check any means and among them

inside a strong decoction of ash bark. Cooking recipe and dosage are not

doses, without the norm, instead of tea and water, a decoction of herbs. 2 months later
the unbearable pains stopped. Before that, the pains were just terrible, urine with
blood. The doctors said that the kidneys were disintegrating. Gradually, complete
cure.
Note: yellow bedstraw is very valuable in folk medicine
plant. I know of cases of severe hemorrhoids that have been cured
only by the fact that the patients drank without the norm an infusion (tea) of bedstraw herb. V
my time was suggested to the technologist V.A. Shevelev to prepare
galenic preparation from this plant and compare it with tincture of steel,
used for hemorrhoids. Raw bedstraw is much easier to obtain and
cheaper than the raw materials of steel, which grows only in the south of the ussr. It is possible that
the activity of the bedstraw is higher than that of the steel. Very helpful
recommend even the usual tincture or bedstraw herb for home
preparation of infusion. It will undoubtedly be a wonderful gastrointestinal
means with a wide range of action. The plant is completely harmless, in
everyday life is widely used for various skin diseases, for baths,
the infusion is drunk with furunculosis, as "blood-purifying".
