Dreamweed root application. Beneficial properties of honeydew, methods of using roots, dry and fresh herbs

Among the wild medicinal plants growing in forests, parks, fields and meadows, there are not very tall herbs with light umbrella-shaped flowers. They belong to the genus “Snyt”, family “Umbrella”.

The Greek name of the genus is Aegopadium. The genus has only 7 varieties.

People call its varieties “goat’s leg” (this is the nickname for the common goat), edible grass, angelica, yaglitsa, yaglitsa, swamp damselfish, rustle, snitka and snitya, delilnik.


The grass can be found in meadows, fields, parks and forests

Appearance

All varieties of dream have the following common characteristics:

  • The stems of the tree are straight. They rise in height to a maximum of 1.5 meters. The stems themselves are green, smooth, and have empty tubes inside.
  • Leaves. The lower leaves have long petioles, and the upper ones have short petioles. All petioles have 3 leaves. The leaves themselves are oblong-ovate in shape, with sawtooth edges and pointed towards the end.
  • The inflorescences are thin rays that form umbels and umbels at the ends of the stems. There are 20-30 rays. Flowers from 10-20 pieces. The diameter of the umbrellas is 10-15 mm. Only the topmost inflorescence bears fruit, the lateral ones are barren.
  • The flowers come in small white and light pink shades. Consist of 5 fragrant petals. There are five stamens and one pistil. Blooms at the end of June.
  • The fruits are two-seeds, oblong in shape, brown in color. Flattened on both sides. They reach 3-4 mm in length. Ripen in August.
  • The roots are long, horizontal, and have abundant buds, which facilitates rapid propagation of the grass.

It can be distinguished from other Umbelliferae by its leaves; they are not small, oblong in shape, jagged at the edges and with a sharp end.

Tiny flowers of the dream are very fragrant and come in white or light pink.

The roots of the grass are bunch-shaped, which is why the grass spreads so quickly

Where does it grow

Gooseberry is a perennial plant with pronounced eutrophic qualities.

Therefore it grows:

  • Only on fertile lands with a high content of humus and minerals.
  • On enriched fresh loam or sandstone with herbs such as oxalis, oxalis and fern.
  • In the forests under the trees.
  • As a weed in parks and garden areas, vegetable gardens.
  • It grows primarily in full sun, but can survive in partial shade.

You can meet this genus of plants:

  • In Europe: from Norway to Corsica and from the Netherlands to the Ural Mountains.
  • In Asia: from Turkey and Transcaucasia to the countries of Central Asia.

Thus, gooseberry grows in almost all regions of Russia.


Forming large thickets, the Snot has spread almost everywhere

Method of making spices

Flowers are used both in medical practice and in cooking. For both the first and second applications, the raw materials are mainly leaves and trunks. But the underground part is also used.

To make spices from the aerial parts:

  1. Flowers are cut off during flowering.
  2. The collected raw materials are dried under the sun in an open room, then placed in an oven at a temperature of 25 to 30 °C.
  3. Dried mushrooms should be stored in tightly sealed glass containers. Store for 1 to 2 years.

Dream flowers are used both in cooking and in medicine, prepare them in advance, after drying them

Sniti leaves and trunks are used for various purposes, but so that they are always at hand, fresh greens are dried and stored for 2 years

The peeled roots of the tree are dried only in dark rooms with good ventilation.

The underground part is collected after the cherry blossoms have faded:

  1. The roots are dug up, shaken off soil and dirt, and washed under cool, clean water.
  2. They are also dried in a draft, but when drying the roots, do not allow the roots to come into contact with direct sunlight.
  3. After drying, the raw materials are collected and placed in wooden boxes or fabric bags.
  4. In this form, they can be stored, like leaves and stems, for 1 to 2 years.

At home

  • Sapling is a honey-bearing herb. 1 hectare of land brings up to 240 kg of honey.
  • It is also a valuable forage plant, although animals do not like it very much for its specific aroma.
  • Dyes are made from sap, which can be used to dye fabrics. Gives yellow and green color.


Snot - honey-bearing grass

Growing

Everyone has a two-pronged attitude towards the plant: some praise it very much for its benefits and beauty, others hate it because it is very difficult to completely remove it from the garden. This is due to the fact that the moth reproduces easily and quickly. In addition, the plant is unpretentious and can survive in different conditions.

So, to plant a dream you need:

  • Plant pieces of rhizome. To do this, you need to divide the roots of the tree into parts and dig them into the ground.
  • In order to prevent it from growing throughout the garden, many advise planting it in plastic or iron containers with holes in the bottom. Or surround it with slate or a border.
  • The main thing is to pick the flower umbrellas in time, which form seeds and fly throughout the entire territory.


The honeydew is bred by dividing the roots; it takes root well and multiplies quickly

How to get rid

Dryweed spreads by both seeds and roots. Due to the fact that there are about 6 thousand buds on the roots of the tree, which form shoots, it multiplies quickly and occupies the entire nearby territory. It can be found by chance in any garden. Those who specifically plant squash have no idea what kind of plant they have allowed into their garden. In order to get rid of dreams, which is not an easy task, you need to take a set of measures.

One of the most effective measures for removing borer is chemical solutions sprayed with a spray bottle. They need to be sprayed only if there are no plants nearby. From the interfloral area, the fungus must be removed by applying the solution with a brush to the leaves of the fungus.

After the leaves turn yellow, the stems are removed. When destroying snot, the main rule is to remove it all throughout the entire territory.


The use of herbicides will be a more effective way to control borer

It is known that Prokhor Isidorovich Moshnin, one of the most revered Orthodox saints, who led the life of a hermit, treated this plant very well. He had been using snot for three years.

Due to its nutritional value and benefits, as well as the ability to reproduce quickly, the spruce tree was used during the Great Patriotic War. In 1942–1943, during the spring and summer, catering workers specially traveled outside the city to collect and prepare dyaglitsa for the winter.

According to some data, the life expectancy of the snotty bird is more than 50 years.


During the Great Patriotic War, gooseberry was widely used in public catering.

The bushes attract bees and animals. The characteristic smell is pleasant to humans, but is not at all perceived by some pets, for example, pigs, while cattle enjoy the greenery of the plant.

Spreading

In the European zone of Russia, as well as in the East, the squirrel is found everywhere. The territory of Transcaucasia, Southern Siberia, Central Asia - the squirrel is densely and widely distributed. The European continent is inhabited by grass from Norway to the territory of Corsica.

Thickets of the plant can form among deciduous and coniferous trees, on the edges of forests and among log houses. It also grows among bushes, in ravines, and parks. An important condition is fertile, well-moistened soil, which can be either chernozem or with admixtures of clay. Common borer can infest gardens and vegetable plots.

The plant loves light, but normally tolerates the dense shadow formed among deciduous trees and bushes in the summer. Often, a plant such as common borer is adjacent to fern, sorrel, and oxalis.

Morphological characteristics

Perennial herb is characterized by the ability to form dense thickets. Moreover, all the grass has one common rhizome, from which numerous shoots arise. This is caused by the presence of a large number of buds on the underground part. Below is a description of all parts of the common dream plant.

  • Roots. The creeping rhizome of the gooseberry is located horizontally and can reach about ten meters in length.
  • Stems. Erect, tubular in shape, weakly branching upward. The plant reaches a height of about 1 m. The surface of the plant stems can be covered with faint furrows.
  • Leaves. The basal, double-trifoliate leaves of the honeydew sit on long petioles. The leaf blade, sometimes reaching 30 cm in length, has an ovoid shape. The width of the leaf blade is about 15 cm. On the shoots of the tree, the complex leaves are placed alternately. The edge of the plate is sharp-toothed. The upper side is bare, the lower side is covered with villi. The upper leaves are smaller, sitting on shortened petioles with a wide sheath.
  • Flowers. They form complex umbrella inflorescences, consisting of small umbrellas not exceeding 1.5 cm in diameter. The central umbrella is fruit-bearing, its white flowers are slightly larger than the others. Umbrellas placed on the sides are barren. The plant blooms in the first half of summer and lasts about a month.
  • Fruit. Small, elongated. This is an achene, up to 4 mm long. The surface is ribbed, the achene is slightly flattened laterally, the color is brown. The ripening of the fruits of the dream is observed in the month of August.

The plant propagates equally effectively by seeds and parts. Seeds of the common nymph have a high ascending ability.

Blank

The harvesting period for pine grass begins at the end of April and can last until August if the grass is mowed in a timely manner. There is an opinion among herbalists that the greatest medicinal value is inherent in young grass - leafy, non-flowering shoots growing in a shaded place.

  • Collection. Young thickets of the plant are mowed with a scythe after the dew has dried.
  • Preparation. They sort through the shoots of the tree for spoiled parts, as well as the presence of plant impurities.
  • Drying. The beveled plant is laid out in a thin layer in a shaded place or hung. It is important to ensure adequate ventilation, which will ensure high-quality and quick drying of the shoots. If necessary, the drying material is dried in a dryer at 40 °C.
  • Storage. Dried herb is packed in linen or paper bags and stored with good ventilation for up to one year.

Less commonly, traditional medicine prepares and uses the underground part of the plant - the rhizomes.

  • Collection. After fruiting is complete - at the end of August, the plant is dug up. The roots are carefully shaken off the ground.
  • Preparation. The underground part of the plant is washed with plenty of running water and sorted for damaged roots. Dry from water in the open air. Grind the rhizomes into smaller pieces.
  • Drying. Place the roots in a warm attic or in a shaded area outdoors. Dry, turning thoroughly.
  • Storage. Completely dry rhizomes of the common gooseberry are placed in paper bags and stored in a well-ventilated area for a year.

The smell of the harvested underground and above-ground parts of the plant is not very pronounced, so batches of the harvested plant do not need to be put aside in a separate place, as is done with essential oil raw materials.

It is important not to confuse

The danger of the harvesting process lies in the possibility of confusing the herb with useless or even poisonous other herbs. The following tips will help you correctly navigate and distinguish impurities that are similar in appearance:

  • hemlock - the rhizomes of the herb resemble celery root in smell;
  • hemlock - all parts of the plant have a smell similar to that of a mouse;
  • dog parsley- the underside of the leaves is bare and smells like garlic.

A characteristic feature of all possible impurities is larger sizes. The common moth does not exceed a meter in height; its poisonous counterparts often exceed this figure. Also, the stems and leaves of twin plants may have purple impurities in color - on the stems, leaves, petioles, while the common gooseberry is green.

Composition of raw materials

According to scientists, the common mushroom has the highest nutritional properties. The plant composition has some similarities with the composition of human blood, which significantly increases the beneficial properties of dreamweed for the human body.
The plant contains unusual substances.

The unique chemical composition of common honey makes it a valuable plant used in folk medicine. Official medicine does not have the proper evidence base for the active use of the plant in the treatment of specific pathologies. All developments of drugs based on dreamy are at the research stage.

Medicinal properties of common dream

The benefits of common dream allow the plant to be used for the treatment of many ailments, their prevention, and for the general health of the human body.

Pharmacological effects

The pharmacological properties of the plant are determined by the chemical compounds contained in the above-ground and underground parts of the herb. She is credited with the ability to comprehensively maintain health through special actions.

  • Anti-inflammatory. The plant is able to relieve inflammatory processes localized in the gastrointestinal tract (pancreatitis, gastritis, colitis) and more. Beneficial substances stop the production of inflammatory mediators in soft tissues, joints, vascular walls, and muscles, allowing the use of common sedum for the treatment of arthritis and polyarthritis, arthrosis, gout, myositis, sciatica, and neuralgia.
  • Sedative. Essential oil of dream helps to normalize the processes of inhibition and excitation in the brain. Thanks to this, sleep has a calming effect, but does not cause drowsiness. The positive effect is the patient's ability to better concentrate his attention. This allows the plant to be used as a means of supporting the nervous system during increased emotional and physical stress.
  • General strengthening. Fresh honey saturates the body with vitamins, microelements, and amino acids. This leads to normalization of the production of necessary enzymes in all tissues - participants in energy exchange and redox reactions. This influence optimizes the functioning of all tissues and organs, allowing the body to remain young longer. The plant helps to tone up and restore the body after long-term illnesses and loss of strength.
  • Antiscorbutic. Chestnut contains 100 mg of ascorbic acid per 100 g of raw material. This indicates the high antioxidant abilities of the plant, as well as its properties to prevent the development of scurvy. In addition, the immunomodulatory effect of vitamin C allows it to be used for colds, flu, and for their prevention during the off-season period.
  • Antitumor. It contains substances that are independently capable of eliminating atypical cells, and by interacting with each other, they enhance each other’s effectiveness against malignant diseases. In oncology, the plant reduces the likelihood of developing metastases, helps reduce pain, slows tumor growth, and supports the body after radiation and chemotherapy.
  • Painkiller. It manifests itself due to the relief of the inflammatory process. Pain in joints, muscles, ligaments, when used, goes away much faster.
  • Antibacterial. It effectively eliminates a variety of pathological organisms upon contact with them (bacteria and fungi). This allows it to be used to treat dysbacteriosis, fungal diseases of internal organs and skin. The bactericidal properties of honeydew work well for erysipelas, bedsores, trophic ulcers and wounds characterized by infection. Healers prepare effective drugs against nail fungus from the dream.
  • Astringent. Dryweed promotes granulation of damaged epithelium, covering it with a thin protective film. This reduces the release of exudate from weeping wounds and ulcers.
  • Detoxifying. It is associated with the content of antioxidants and neutralizers of free radicals that appear in the body during the processing of energy carriers or harmful substances. The detoxifying properties of dream also include the ability to activate the natural process of eliminating toxins of bacterial origin with the help of immune cells. Dream preparations remove salt deposits from the body.
  • Diuretic. Associated with improved blood supply to the kidneys and the antispasmodic effect of the plant. Sleeping helps eliminate edema of cardiac and renal origin.
  • Choleretic. The plant enhances the formation and excretion of bile. Relieves spasm of the bile ducts. Normalizing the composition of bile helps prevent the formation of gallstones, and activating the separation of bile helps eliminate flakes or small stones in the gallbladder. The herb helps overcome cholecystitis, prevent cholelithiasis and dyskinesia of the gallbladder ducts.
  • Antihypoxic. It manifests itself due to the vasoprotective properties of dream. The plant normalizes the permeability of vascular walls and their tone, thereby improving central and peripheral blood flow. Normalizing the rheological properties of blood (antiplatelet effect), reducing the content of fatty compounds in it ensures the unhindered movement of blood through the veins and arteries.
  • Healing. Provided with a disinfecting and regenerating effect from the use of honey, as well as a combination of these effects with an astringent effect. Additional stimulation of regenerative processes is provided by the content of carotene, which clearly demonstrates its positive properties regarding the condition of the skin.
  • Hepatoprotective. It lies in the ability of dream to activate the process of restoration of hepatocytes. The plant regulates lipid metabolism, which means it prevents fatty degeneration of liver cells. Improving metabolism in all tissues of the body allows the herb to be used as part of weight loss preparations.

In addition, honey contains a complex of substances that gently irritate the intestinal walls and also improve the flow of bile and digestive juices. They normalize the process of digesting food and transporting the food bolus through the gastrointestinal tract (GIT).

Thanks to sleep, the motility of the entire tract is normalized, and waste elimination becomes regular. The plant is used to relieve constipation caused by enzymatic deficiency or inadequate absorption of food. As you can see, treating any pathological condition with herbs will result in a comprehensive improvement in health for the patient.

Features of therapy

Traditional medicine uses common weed to treat many ailments. In this case, different parts of the plant are used against specific diseases.

  • Dried grass (leaves, shoots). Used for poultices and compresses for joint pain. A decoction of the herb helps improve blood formation. The drugs are used in the complex treatment of diseases of the cardiovascular system, as well as hypertension. Remedies prepared from herbs can be used for the prevention and treatment of diabetes, atherosclerosis, and vascular thrombosis. Infusions from the plant help cope with allergic reactions that appear on the skin, as well as diseases of an infectious and inflammatory nature.
  • Fresh grass. Used internally to improve digestion and stimulate urine production, respectively, eliminating constipation and swelling. Fresh leaves are rich in iron and are therefore used to treat anemia. They are also added to food for vitamin deficiency and hypovitaminosis.
  • Rhizomes. In the form of baths, they have a sedative effect and normalize the patient’s emotional state. Decoctions and ointments are often prepared from the roots for the treatment of dermato- and onychomycosis.

In folk medicine, the medicinal properties of the common dream are used in pediatrics - for the weakness of the child, disturbances in the functioning of the immune system, and hematopoiesis. In Abkhazia, honeydew is used to eliminate atopic dermatitis.

Interestingly, this plant is not characterized by any side effects. Even the laxative and diuretic effect of the common sourweed manifests itself so mildly that it does not bring any discomfort to the patient.

Contraindications to sleep include only individual hypersensitivity reactions. Given the wide distribution of the plant, such reactions occur extremely rarely. According to doctors, moderate consumption of the plant, even during pregnancy, will be beneficial. Naturally, before using the herb, the expectant mother should obtain the approval of her doctor.

According to scientific research, the herb contains natural pesticides that have antibacterial properties. If vegetables are topped with grass, they will last longer.

Description: There are several varieties: common, broad-leaved, Kashmir. For medicinal purposes, common weed is often used.

Perennial herbaceous plant of the celery family. From Latin it is translated as (podagraria) gout, a herb that is used to treat gout and rheumatism.

Habitat: usually forest edges, shrubs, meadows with coniferous-deciduous moist soil. The moth is easy to spot by the low-growing carpet thickets. It is found in the European part of Russia, throughout Ukraine, eastern Europe, Siberia, and Asia.

The height of the bush is up to 1 m. The root is long and branched, on which seeds and buds are located. Thanks to its creeping roots, it quickly fills all the space on the site.

The erect stem is almost bare, with small fibers, branched closer to the top.

The leaves are round, lanceolate, pointed at the end, up to 30 cm long, located on long petioles. On the underside the leaf blade is slightly pubescent.

Complex umbrella-like inflorescence with up to 30 branches. Each umbrella-shaped branch consists of small white flowers.

Collection and preparation of common gooseberry

For treatment, the above-ground part is used: stem, leaves, flowers, shoots. The root also has medicinal properties, but is rarely used. The surface part is collected during the flowering period, or even before flowering begins, when the stem and leaves are very young. During the flowering period, it is necessary to choose only fresh, separately picked leaves. Before flowering, the plant is still young and the entire upper part of the stem is torn off.

In the summer, during the harvesting period, squash can easily be confused with carrots.

Main feature: characteristic smell and shape of the leaves. 3 branches diverge from the central stem, and each branch has 3 leaves. This proportion is maintained throughout the entire period of existence.

Dry the collected plant in the shade, in a dry and well-ventilated place. If using electric drying, the temperature should not exceed 50 degrees.

It is necessary to select a flat horizontal surface and spread the grass on paper in one layer.

Dry collection is stored in paper bags or glass jars for no more than a year. If the honey is not completely dry, it may begin to deteriorate in a glass container. It is recommended to ventilate regularly.

The root for harvesting is dug up at the end of summer, washed well under running water, cut into pieces if necessary and also dried, protected from direct rays of the sun.

Common gooseberry (Aegopodium podagraria L) has long been used in Rus' as a food, vitamin, melliferous, medicinal, and fodder herbaceous plant. In spring, its first sprouts were especially important for enriching the diet. There was even a phrase in Rus' “if only I could live to die.”

The first mention of honeydew as a food plant dates back to the 12th century. During his lifetime, the great righteous man, and now canonized Saint Seraphim of Sarov, at one time spent three months in continuous fasting and prayer, feeding only on sleep, and it is not surprising that he called it “food”. So, he told one Diveyevo sister: “I prepared food for myself from snitka. Do you know Snitka? I tore it up and put it in a pot, pour a little water in it, and it turns out to be a nice dish. For the winter, I dried the snitka and ate that alone, and the brethren were surprised at what I ate. And I ate snitka...” In the language of our ancestors, the word “sneat” was related to the word “food” and meant tasty food, food. Snitka, shnit, Yaglitsa, Dyaglitsa are other nicknames for this common herb.

Plant of the umbrella family (Umbelliferae), or celery family - Apiaceae. The Latin name of the genus is derived from two Greek words “aegos” - goat and “podion” - leg. The plant received it for the shape of its petals, reminiscent of a goat's hoof print. Since in the past, gout was used as a remedy for rheumatism and gout, this is where its scientific name, podagraria, apparently came from.

Gooseberry is one of the most common weeds. It very quickly occupies unturfed land near houses and garden plots. The rhizome of the plant is horizontal, creeping. This plant multiplies quickly and is very difficult to eradicate, so it is considered to be a malicious weed. It’s a pity, because it’s not her fault, but our misfortune, that we haven’t learned to understand and use whining for our own good. In the spring, like no other, it begins to grow rapidly, despite the fact that its young leaves and soft, tender stems could be used with great health benefits. After all, all dishes made from honeydew are very healthy, and in early spring they could successfully compensate for the lack of vitamins in the body.

The moth is shade-tolerant. But where there is little light, it does not throw out flowering stems, and the thicket will consist entirely of leaves. The grass spreads there only with the help of rhizomes - long, thin, branched. Such rhizomes are called stolons. Rosettes of leaves emerge from their buds, and roots emerge from the nodes.

This is an undeservedly forgotten wild food and medicinal plant - widespread in the Non-Black Earth Region. It grows throughout Europe, Central Asia, the Caucasus, Western and Eastern Siberia, and has valuable nutritional and medicinal properties. The moth is still used as food. Soups, okroshkas, salads, botvinya, cabbage soup are prepared from snyti greens; caviar, mashed potatoes, meatballs, casseroles, and omelettes are made.
