Goose fat in cosmetology.

The scope of application of goose fat is quite extensive: the product was used to treat colds, alleviate the patient's condition with severe, loss of strength, etc. Goose fat was also used in cooking and cosmetology.

Composition and properties

The first mentions of domestic geese can be found even in the Bible. People raised birds and used the meat for food, feathers for making pillows and feather beds, and the fat was stored for medicinal purposes.

The medicinal product was obtained as follows: the fat layers were cut into small pieces, placed in an enamel bowl (in a bowl), and then a pan of water was placed on a very low heat, and a bowl of fat was placed on top. Gradually the dishes heated up and the fat melted out. This method was called “wet melting.”

When melted, the fat is somewhat similar to olive oil. Until it hardens, it is easy to mix with the necessary components to use for various purposes (external and internal use). After hardening, goose fat becomes solid and each time the need arises to use the product, you must carefully separate the required amount with a knife or spoon. You can melt the medicinal product in a water bath.

The benefits of fat

Many minerals, vitamins and polyunsaturated fatty acids contained in goose fat help improve your well-being. It is not for nothing that in ancient times people used goose fat to treat many ailments.

So, weakened people were given a little fat dissolved in milk to drink in order to strengthen them and get rid of them. Ingesting a small amount of the medicinal product helped improve the functioning of the digestive organs. And nowadays, goose fat is widely used in folk medicine to get rid of many diseases.

It is necessary to regularly consume fat for people suffering from asthenia and. Goose fat is also useful for those people who lead an active lifestyle and get tired quickly. The only people who should not drink this product are people who are prone to obesity and if their blood levels are elevated.

The main advantage of this product is that the fat can withstand high-temperature treatment and does not lose its properties, and is completely absorbed without harm to the functioning of the blood vessel and heart.

In Rus', people often used goose fat as practically the only remedy to help cure colds and relieve colds. Interestingly, in Korea people believe that the product can defeat cancer. It’s hard to say whether this is true, but it’s quite possible to test for yourself how animal fat works. If you get drunk easily and you have a feast coming up, before going on a visit, take 1 tsp. fat You can eat and drink a lot (of course, within reasonable limits), and you won’t feel heavy.

All components are in equal proportions. Stir, heat and add 1 tsp. mixture into a glass with warm milk. You need to drink this delicious medicine morning and evening.

MirSovetov suggests familiarizing yourself with popular recipes for using the medicinal product:

Application in cosmetology

Cosmetologists know that goose fat is a powerful tool in the fight against rashes and dry skin.

Here are some effective recipes:

  • Cracked lips are a common problem during the cold season. To keep your lips always tender and soft, prepare the following cream: grind dry rose petals (20 pcs.) into powder, add 1 tbsp. l. fat, stir. Use the cream daily before bed;
  • for dry skin: camphor oil (2.5 g) mixed with goose fat (25 g), applied to the face, left for 20 minutes, rinsed with water;
  • for dry hair: fat melted in a water bath is thoroughly rubbed into the hair roots for 5 minutes and left for 30 minutes. Wash off first with shampoo, then you need to use hair conditioner and rinse your curls with water and lemon juice.

How to choose a quality product?

Where can you buy fat? They don't sell it in stores, so you'll have to go to your local market. When choosing a product, pay attention to appearance and aroma. It shouldn't smell like burning. The color of quality goose fat is light or slightly golden.

If you cannot find a medicinal product, MirSovetov recommends making the medicine yourself. For this you will need a goose carcass. When cutting, be careful so that the insides (spleen) remain intact. Otherwise, the fat, like meat, will be bitter.

The fat should be cut off from the meat, washed and placed in an enamel colander. Place in a saucepan with water. It will take at least 8 hours to burn the fat, but the result of a long wait is quite justified.

During the process of rendering fat, make sure that there is always water in the pan and add a fresh portion from time to time.

The finished product must be poured into a glass container with a wide neck and left to cool completely. Or repeat exactly as our great-grandmothers did: pour the melted fat into glass cups, wait until it hardens completely, carefully remove the contents, put them in a plastic bag.

Store goose fat in the refrigerator on the bottom shelf or place the container in the pantry. That's it, use the finished product as needed and be healthy!

The times when unofficial medicine was extremely popular, unfortunately, have sunk into oblivion. Today, if people have any illness, it is easier for them to go to the nearest pharmacy and buy a medication. Many simply do not trust folk remedies, being afraid to use them.

But the medicines from the people are the medicines with which our ancestors were treated. The pharmaceutical industry was not always so developed; at one time it did not exist at all. Plants, oils, water, fat - this is what helped in the fight against pathologies, and quite successfully. In addition, it is common knowledge that our grandparents were sick much less than us.

Many people believe that alternative medicine drugs are ineffective and even useless. However, there are also many adherents of alternative treatment. They definitely know about the benefits of goose fat. This bird has been bred since ancient times. In some nations she was even deified.

As confirmation of this, there is a legend according to which it was geese that saved Rome. When the enemy tried to enter the city, the geese made a noise and thereby woke up the residents. They woke up before the guard dogs. Of course, now few people dare to use a bird as an alarm. But you should not refuse to use goose fat for medicinal purposes.

Previously, people used fat to treat various pathologies, in particular diseases of the skin and respiratory system. In addition, the bird was bred for meat, and the down was used to make blankets and pillows. As for the fat, it was first melted and then placed for storage in special containers. Later it was used not only for preparing dishes, it was, and still is, an integral component of medicines. And that's why.

This product retains its properties when stored in cold conditions for up to 3 years.

Strain through cheesecloth or a fine sieve, pour into a glass jar of appropriate volume, cool to room temperature, cover with parchment, tie and put in the refrigerator.

You can easily prepare lard for medicinal and cosmetic needs yourself.

In children's therapy, goose lard is mainly used for bronchopulmonary diseases, but there are some nuances: alcohol-containing components should be excluded from formulations for internal use, and products with a strong taste and smell should be replaced with more gentle ones, since babies do not want to eat either onions or garlic.

  • Colds with cough and poor immunity. Pour some water into a saucepan, bring to a boil, place a colander with lemon on top, cover with a lid so that as little steam escapes as possible.

Goose fat in cooking

You already know how beneficial Goose fat is for the human body and how it can be used to cure many diseases. Earlier it was said that goose fat is used not only for the manufacture of all kinds of medicines, but is also actively used in cooking.

Residents of France most often use a component such as goose fat in their kitchen as a base for sauces, pates, baking and frying (sautéing vegetables).

You can buy goose fat in a pharmacy, store, market, or make it yourself. The fat should have a golden-white color; if you see brown spots in it, this may mean that the product is expired or was spoiled during the cooking process.

Fat is most often sold in metal or glass jars, from where it is very easy to remove it with a spoon. At temperatures above 30 degrees, fat begins to take on a liquid form, so it must be stored at a temperature of no more than 24 degrees. Despite this, fat does not lose its beneficial properties when heated.

Cooking with goose fat is healthy because it does not contain artificial ingredients. It also has a pleasant subtle aroma and spicy taste.

But you shouldn’t overuse it either, because goose fat contains the same amount of lipids as vegetable oil, and, therefore, you will gain the same amount of calories. Don't forget that all fats can cause excess weight!
