Herbs instead of pills

What diseases will herbs help with and how to properly prepare a medicinal infusion?

• 

Most of us are cautious about medicines, but have nothing against herbs: after all, this is healing by the forces of nature itself. In some cases (not always!) Herbal medicine is preferable to other means, and it is better to start treatment with it, and if the effect is insufficient, connect the medications recommended by the doctor.
WE DO NOT COOL!
Frozen in anticipation of the bus and feel that you are about to peel off? Especially for such cases, brew tea in a thermos to strengthen the tea, which will help stop a viral infection that develops due to hypothermia. Recipe This healing infusion was developed by Vitaly Vasilievich Karavaev, the creator of the well-known wellness system.
• Take equally mint leaves, eucalyptus, linden and calendula flowers, marjoram, St. John's wort and thyme, mix everything. Brew in a thermos 4−5 tbsp. tablespoons of herbal mixture with 1 liter of boiling water, leave for 1-2 hours, strain. If desired, honey, currant or raspberry jam can be added to a warm infusion.
APPEARED Cough?
At first, it is always dry, or, as doctors say, unproductive: no matter how you cough, it does not become easier, because it is almost impossible to cough. The mucous membranes are dehydrated, sputum is not produced. In a similar situation it will bring relief infusionwhich softens the cough.
• Combine St. John's wort with linden and chamomile flowers (2: 2: 1). Pour 4 tbsp. tablespoons of the mixture with 1 liter of boiling water, let it brew for half an hour in a thermos, strain. Drink 2-3 cups of this herbal tea during the day (preferably an hour before meals). The steam rising above the cup is also healing, so it’s good for them to breathe. You can pour the drink into a teapot, insert a funnel made of cardboard into its spout and draw in a little (but not scorching!) Hot steam.
SICK THROAT?
As a rule, these are signs of pharyngitis and tonsillitis. It will help to collect from lemon balm medicinal and peppermint, taken equally. These herbs soothe the inflamed mucosa and have the effect of slight freezing - relieve pain, almost like a local anesthetic.
• Pour 1 tbsp. teaspoon of herbal mixture with a glass of boiling water, leave for 10 minutes, add honey to taste and drink in small sips to soothe the pain.
VOICE VILLAGE?
Keep in mind: a husky person should not talk. Even in a whisper! Making a quiet sound, the vocal cords with inflammation of the mucous membrane of the larynx (laryngitis) are strained with such force as if you were screaming, and as a result you can lose your voice altogether. So keep communication with others to a minimum until the voice is restored. Gargling is also undesirable. Anyway, not a drop will fall into the larynx with inflamed vocal cords: at the time of the procedure, the epiglottis tightly covers it. In addition, the sounds made during rinsing, like whispers, irritate the swollen mucous membrane and require effort from the vocal cords, for which peace is the best medicine.
• Brew chamomile, sage, linden blossom (individually or taken equally) and drink on health, like regular tea, to relieve sore throat.
KIDNEY HELP
To speed up recovery from cystitis and pyelonephritis, brew infusions of juniper berries, currant leaves, birch, bone and orthosiphon (kidney tea), horsetail grass, oregano, St. John's wort, peppermint, thyme (aka thyme), blue cornflower flowers burdock root. These plants have a diuretic effect, activate the kidneys, disinfect the pelvis and bladder, prevent the formation of stones (such a danger with pyelonephritis and cystitis increases due to changes in the acid-base balance - the pH of the urine) and wash out the "sand" that has settled here. The pharmacy sells ready-made kidney fees, and if you wish, you can make them yourself.
• Mix 10 g each of the birch leaves and the grass of coltsfoot, as well as 20 g of the grass of horsetail and chamomile flowers. Pour 2 tbsp. tablespoons of the collected collection of 0.5 liters of boiling water, insist half an hour, strain. Take half a glass 3 times a day for 15-20 minutes before eating.
• Brew lingonberry tea at the rate of 1 dessert spoon of chopped lingonberry leaf per 1.5 cups of boiling water. You can add to the same 1 teaspoon of a sheet of strawberries and currants. Insist in a teapot for an hour, drink during the day in 3 doses before meals.
IF THE TOOTH IS SICK
As a rule, toothache begins at the most inopportune moment. If you cannot get to the dentist for some reason, use folk remedies. But at the first opportunity, contact the clinic: the pain can return even with a vengeance.
• Pour 1 tbsp.a spoonful of sage herb with a glass of boiling water, let it brew for half an hour, strain. Rinse your mouth with the resulting infusion. By analogy, you can prepare infusions with chamomile flowers, plantain leaves, thyme grass. They have anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects. But for rinsing, use a slightly warm infusion - hot intensifies the pain. For the same reason, do not try to warm the sore spot with a heating pad or compress!
