Larch: types, properties, use, contraindications, recipes. Agaric Brazilian and its antitumor effect

Thank you

Larch- one of the most common plants in Russia, so it is not surprising that even our ancestors used this tree, enriched with trace elements and biologically active substances, to treat many diseases. The benefits and uses of larch in folk medicine will be discussed in this article.

plant description

Larch is a woody monoecious plant from the Pine family. This tree is considered the only deciduous tree among all the variety of conifers.

Under favorable conditions, the height of larch can reach 40 meters or more. This is a long-lived tree, the age of which can vary between 300 - 600 years and even more (larches are registered, whose age is 800 years).

Larch grows quickly, withstands low temperatures and can grow in permafrost conditions. In addition, this plant is distinguished by smoke and gas resistance.

What does a larch coniferous tree look like?

Larch is a tall, beautiful coniferous tree that loses its needles for the winter.

The young tree has a clear cone-shaped crown, while the old tree has a wide open crown. Under the condition of sparse plantings, the crown will be sprawling, but in closed spaces it will be highly raised and relatively narrow.

Male spikelets, which have a rounded ovoid shape, have a yellowish tint, and female cones are reddish-pink or green.

Annual needles shed in autumn are soft and narrowly linear, turning light green in spring and golden yellow in autumn. The length of the needles reaches 1.5 - 4.5 cm (it all depends on the breed of larch).

Small cones of larch can be round, ovoid or almost cylindrical. Cones ripen in early spring, and the seeds from them spill out in early spring or summer next year, while empty cones can decorate trees for several more years. Cones fall in autumn.

Seeds retain germination for one or two (rarely three or four) years. It should be noted that the seeds that have fallen from lonely standing trees are practically dissimilar.

The bark of a tree trunk can be dark or light (depending on the type of larch).

Where does it grow?

The habitat of larch has spread from forests mixed type located in Western and Northern Europe, and up to the Carpathians in the east. In Russia, this tree can most often be found in Siberia and the Far East.

Larch is an extremely light-loving and undemanding tree to the soil, which not only does not renew itself in shading, but also does not grow.

This tree can be found in moss swamps, on dry or, on the contrary, waterlogged soils, as well as in permafrost conditions. Only in such unfavorable conditions, this tree is most often characterized by short stature and stuntedness.

Fertile soil for larch should be sufficiently moist and well drained.

How to distinguish larch from pine?

• Larch sheds foliage and needles for the winter. Pine is an evergreen coniferous tree that can change shades of needles depending on the season.
• Larch has soft needles 1.5 - 4.5 cm long, while it is spirally located on the shoots and collected in bunches of 20 - 40 pieces. Same length pine needles is 5 cm, it is located along the entire trunk in a spiral and collected in bunches of two.
• Larch has a thicker trunk, which can reach 1.8 meters in diameter. Pine cannot boast such a powerful trunk.
• The larch is crowned with a more transparent crown, and the pine is thick and fluffy.
• Larch lives up to 600 years, and pine up to 350.
• Larch bark (especially on young trees) is much lighter than pine bark, but in older specimens this difference becomes less noticeable.
• Small cones of larch have a very elegant round shape, and they are covered with velvety hairs. In winter, it is the cones that are the only decoration of this tree. Pine cones have a classic cone shape. With the advent of spring, the opened pine cones fall off.

Larch varieties

There are about 20 varieties of larch, while outwardly they are very similar. But still, in folk medicine, three types of larch are mainly used: European, Dahurian and Siberian. The listed species differ mainly in quantity, consistency, as well as pubescence and crown shape.

European larch (common)

This type of larch, which is also called common larch, is the largest, since its height can reach 50 m (mostly such specimens grow in the Alps) with a trunk diameter of 2 m. In our climatic conditions The height of this tree is about 25 m.

The crown of common larch has a conical shape, while its side shoots are hanging. The buds of this tree are distinguished by the presence of a large number of shiny outer scales of a reddish-brown hue (scales with ciliated edges are arranged spirally on the bud).

The needles of European larch are tender and non-thorny. This tree blooms, starting from 15 - 20 years, while the flowers appear in May (flowers are concentrated in small spikelets of yellow or reddish color).

Brown cones, up to 4 cm long, have an ovoid-conical shape and consist of 6 (and sometimes 8) rows of slightly convex scales. I must say that the common larch cones ripen in the fall, and this happens in the year the tree blooms, but they open only in the early spring of the next year. Those cones that are left without seeds can remain on the tree for several years. Young cones turn bright red or pinkish in spring, thus resembling small roses. Mature cones have a brownish tinge.

The leaves of European larch, collected in bundles, mainly 30-40 pieces, are of unequal length.

Anthelmintic
Pour 100 g of larch resin with 600 ml of alcohol and leave for 20 days, then strain the tincture and take 10 drops (it is also recommended to dilute the product in 100 ml of water) twice - three times a day.

Young shoots, like buds, are collected in early spring, when the covering scales are still tightly pressed to the bud itself. But the blossoming kidneys are not used in traditional medicine.

Resin (resin), which includes essential oil and rosin, is extracted by cutting during the growing season.

The bark is carefully removed from the felled trees.

How to dry larch?

Needles, buds and young shoots are recommended to be used fresh (accordingly, the shelf life of such raw materials is short). If necessary, both shoots and buds are dried in the open air or in a warm room, the temperature in which does not exceed 25 degrees. When storing branches at room temperature, vitamins are destroyed after two to three days.

But the bark should be heat treated before use (for example, boiled or steamed in a water bath), then dried at room temperature (this drying method will help get rid of pests and microorganisms contained in the bark). Such raw materials can be stored for a long time.

The needles are stored in a cold place (it is possible under the snow), which will help to keep the vitamins in full for two to three months.

Treatment with larch

Needles (leaves)

This part of the larch is used to prepare infusions, tinctures and decoctions, indicated for bleeding gums, coughs, weakened immunity, toothache, scurvy, colds and exhaustion, and all thanks to the large amount of vitamin C contained in the needles.

So, two teaspoons of chopped fresh pine needles are poured into a glass of milk, after which they are simmered over low heat for no more than 7 minutes, while the container should be tightly closed with a lid. Strained broth is drunk three tablespoons three times a day, 30 minutes before eating.

Needles will help get rid of bad breath and periodontal disease, for which it is enough to chew it (by the way, this part of larch has a pleasant sour taste).

Also, larch leaves are used to make a fortified drink, which not only quenches thirst, but also prevents the development of many diseases.

Needles are one of the components dietary salads, which have not only benefits, but also high taste.

Interesting fact! The indigenous population of Yakutia has long used larch needles (or rather larch broth prepared from the inner layer of tree bark) instead of bread. Such a white and very juicy cambial layer of bark was boiled in water, after which they were eaten, previously diluted with sour milk.

Branches (shoots)

I would like to note right away that branches and shoots are not quite identical concepts: for example, a shoot is only an annual part of a branch, and besides, it is on the shoot that buds form.

Young fresh larch branches are used as an effective analgesic for gout, rheumatism, and joint damage of various etiologies.

Larch shoots are used in the treatment of cough, chronic bronchitis (especially if the disease is accompanied by purulent sputum), flatulence, urolithiasis and helminthic invasions.

Baths with the addition of infusion from fresh branches of the plant are indicated for the elimination of joint pain and neurological diseases.

larch bark

Larch bark has proven itself in the treatment of prostate adenoma and prostatitis, diarrhea, heart failure, cysts, skin cancer, diseases of the oral cavity. The fact is that the bark is a source of both medical and food pectin, not to mention other useful substances.

As an external agent, larch bark preparations are indicated for abscesses and festering wounds, trophic ulcers and hemorrhoids.

According to the results of studies conducted by American scientists, it was found that larch bark contains a large number of arabinogalactan - an extract that perfectly enhances and strengthens the immune system.

With the help of infusions from the bark, you can speed up the healing of a hernia, get rid of diarrhea and intestinal infections, normalize the menstrual cycle, especially if the latter is characterized by the fact that menstruation is not only plentiful, but also painful.

Bark powder accelerates the ripening of boils.

Our ancestors used a decoction of the bark as an expectorant, diuretic, laxative and emetic.

Fruits (cones)

The fruits of the plant in the form of small cones are finally formed in the period from September to October. The fruits contain seeds that fall out after the scales open during the process of full ripening.

Mostly larch fruits are part of multicomponent folk remedies, the use of which is indicated for coughs, nervous and heart diseases, and colds.

In addition, green cones collected in May are used to make honey, used in the treatment of asthma. gastrointestinal diseases, physical as well as mental exhaustion.

To prepare a kilo pine honey you will need 80 green cones, which are placed in an enamel bowl, poured with a liter of water and boiled for an hour (the readiness of the cones is indicated by the fact that they can be easily pierced with a fork). Next, the warm broth is filtered, after which 1 kg of sugar is added to it. Honey is put on fire again (sugar should be completely dissolved). In order for honey not to become sugary, it is necessary to add a small amount of honey to it. citric acid. Honey removed from the fire is stored in a dark and cool place, and in a hermetically sealed container. Honey is taken one tablespoon three times a day, washed down with water.

larch buds

Larch buds in the form of infusions and decoctions are used for:

• respiratory diseases;
• diseases of the cardiovascular system;
• rheumatism;
• diseases of the lungs and kidneys.

Larch buds are often used in combination with other medicinal plants, being part of the so-called "breast collections".

The larch sponge is rightfully considered a long-liver, since its age can reach 70 years. But "adult" specimens are not used in traditional medicine, as they are overgrown with a fairly thick woody shell, moreover chemical composition the inside of the fungus undergoes changes over time.

Mushroom round shape, whose weight can be both 30 and 50 kg, has a strong shell, inside which contains a whitish pulp used for medicinal purposes.

A sponge is collected in spring, early summer or autumn, cut down with an ax or knocked off a tree with a stick. The collected raw materials are dried in warm and well-ventilated rooms (ovens can be used).

The use of larch sponge

The composition of the larch sponge includes lipid substances, organic acids, resins, fatty oils, due to which this part of the larch is used in folk medicine as a sedative, mild sleeping pill, hemostatic, anti-inflammatory, antifungal, diuretic and laxative.

Larch sponge is used in the treatment of:

• the debilitating sweating that tuberculosis patients often suffer from;
• infectious diseases;
• kidney diseases;
• neuralgia;
• violations of the functions of the liver, pancreas and gallbladder;
• bronchitis;
• colds;
• ulcers;
• asthma;
• hemoptysis;
• festering wounds.

The action of the larch sponge:

• elimination of temperature;
• easier breathing;
• promotion defensive forces organism;
• stimulation of the central nervous system;
• increased estrogen activity;
• improved metabolism;
• restoration of the activity of enzyme systems;
• regulation of the activity of the cardiovascular system;
• removal of inflammation;
• increased activity of anticancer drugs;
• tumor growth retardation.

Larch Slimming Sponge

According to the results of studies conducted by Japanese doctors, it was found that preparations based on larch sponge restore impaired liver functions through the breakdown of fats. In the course of research, scientists isolated the most useful polysaccharide from the fruiting body, which they called lanofil. This substance helps to normalize the production of enzymes by the liver, which are necessary to restore impaired metabolism, and this naturally leads to the loss of extra pounds.

In addition, larch sponge contributes to weight lossbecause it contains special resinous substances that have a pronounced irritating effect directly on the intestinal mucosa. Simply put, the mushroom acts on the principle of the strongest laxative.

Important! This method of losing weight should be treated with extreme caution, because valuable vitamins will be excreted from the body with loose stools, nutrients and minerals, which can lead to dysbacteriosis. In addition, a sharp loss of fluid can provoke disturbances in the work of many organs and body systems. Therefore, if a decision is made to resort to the help of a larch sponge, it is necessary:

• consult a doctor first;
• do not exceed the prescribed dosage;
• carefully monitor the reaction of the body to the larch sponge.

Agaricus tincture
1 tsp dry chopped mushroom is poured into a glass hot water. The agent is infused for 8 hours, then filtered and taken in a third of a glass three times a day.

Contraindications to the use of larch chaga

• bowel disease;
• Pathology of the liver;
• Individual intolerance;
• Pregnancy;
• lactation period;
• Children, adolescents, and the elderly.

Side effects

• General weakness;
• Diarrhea.

Resin (resin) of larch

For medical purposes, in folk medicine, the resin (or resin) of larch, obtained by tapping, is widely used. Resinous secretions are extracted from natural cracks, as well as frost holes or artificial cuts, while, as a rule, hardened resin is extracted (the resin maturation process can take several years).

Hardened secretions (sometimes with remnants of bark or wood) are collected and boiled, for which the raw material is placed in bags of any loose fabric, after which it is immersed in a container of water (a load is first hung from the bag, which prevents it from floating up). In the process of heating, the resin melts, floating to the surface, while mechanical impurities remain in the paper bag at the very bottom. After the boiler has cooled, the resin that has hardened and floated to the surface is removed from the tank, rolled into briquettes, formed into sticks or pieces of any other shape.

The resin of this tree consists of essential oil and rosin (solid resin), almost entirely composed of abietic acid.

Even Kamchadals, Evenks and Mansi used larch resin to improve digestion, quench thirst and cleanse the mouth.

Today, larch resin as an external irritant and distraction is indicated for such diseases:

• gout;
• neuralgia.

Ointments based on larch resin, which has an antimicrobial effect, are used for:

• inflammation of the respiratory tract;

In the treatment of hemorrhoids, the resin softens and is used in the form of a candle.

In the treatment of cough, bronchitis, pulmonary tuberculosis and other lung diseases, the resin is recommended for inhalation.

Larch resin helps to restore the composition of tooth enamel, strengthen gums and tooth roots. Such "chewing gum" will protect teeth from bacteria that cause the development of periodontal disease and caries.

In case of inflammation of the gums and acute toothache, larch resin in the form of a plate is applied to a diseased tooth or gum. The pain goes away in 3-5 minutes.

Larch resin in the form of chewing gum is indicated for gastritis, duodenitis and other diseases of the digestive tract.

Important! It has been proven that larch resin protects the human body from the negative effects of smog, exhaust gases, paint fumes, gasoline and tobacco smoke for up to four hours. To do this, it is enough to chew the resin for 15 minutes. To date, a similar analogue of personal protection against the listed factors in traditional medicine does not exist!

Before use, you should consult with a specialist.

For medicinal purposes, the fruit of agaricus is used. It is harvested in early summer or spring. Due to the fact that the mushroom in question is poisonous, it must be cut with gloves.

Means based on a larch sponge are used in combination with other drugs during chemotherapy, in the treatment of diabetes, lung diseases, tuberculosis (for a tuberculosis patient, the fungus provides a decrease in debilitating sweating).

A decoction of the mushroom is used for dysfunction thyroid gland, to get rid of helminths, rejuvenation, oncological ailments.

The use of larch sponge in traditional medicine

There are many different recipes for preparing decoctions, infusions based on a larch sponge. Consider the most popular of them.

Agaricus infusion, which has a laxative effect

Cut the mushroom into small pieces with a knife. Place one teaspoon of raw materials in a ceramic or glass container, add water that has just boiled (250 ml) there. Place the composition in a warm place for 8-10 hours (you can cook it in a thermos). After straining, drink the remedy in a warm form, 1/3 cup a day with meals.

Contraindications

Carefully it is necessary to apply means on the basis of a larch sponge to persons having hypersensitivity. Do not use them during pregnancy, breastfeeding, children under 12 years of age.

MUSHROOM AGARIK BRAZILIAN. Properties of Agaricus.

Agaricus Brazilian- a valuable medicinal mushroom, discovered relatively recently and for its medicinal properties introduced into the elite of pharmaceutical mycology.

Story

It is known that in 1917 the mushroom was discovered by the naturalist biologist, American W.A.Murill, who named it after him.

Later, in 1965, two Americans, W. Jay Sinden of the University of Pennsylvania and Dr. E.D. Lambert from Lambert Laboratories noted the fact that in the Brazilian region near the city of Sao Paolo, where people often ate Brazilian agaric, cases of oncological and immune diseases met extremely rarely.

After the publication of their research report, an ethnic Japanese research biologist, Ferumoto, took samples of the fungus and traveled with them to Japan. He showed the fungus at the Iwaide Fungology Institute in Mie Prefecture, founded by Dr. Inosuke Inwade, a professor at Tokyo University and Mie University. For the first time in history, after much trial and error, spores were cultured and grown from samples, followed by artificial cultivation of mushrooms.

This mushroom was called Piedade by the Brazilians themselves, in honor of the area in which it was found. Other popular names: "Sun Mushroom" - a solar mushroom and Cogumelo do Sol, which translates from Portuguese as "Mushroom of God." In some countries, the fungus has become known as Royal Sun Agaricus (Royal Sun Agaricus).

"Mushroom Princess" is a translation of Himematsutake, the Japanese name given by researchers at the Iwade Institute. Only in 1967 the Belgian scientist Dr. Heinemann (Heinemann) accurately identified the fungus by scientific name Agaricus blazei Murill (AVM). The Iwade Institute of Mycology has become a leader in the study of Brazilian Agaricus in Japan.

In 1970, Shoji Shibata, a professor in the Department of Pharmacology at the University of Tokyo, and Dr. Ikegawa, a physician from the Japanese National Cancer Center, began to study Brazilian Agaric together. Together they presented the results to the Japan Pharmacological Association, the Japan Cancer Association and other organizations. These studies were mainly aimed at studying the antitumor properties of beta-glucans found in Brazil agarica.

At the "39th Meeting of the Japan Academy of Cancer Control" held in 1980, this mushroom was first introduced by professors Hitoshi Ito, Keishiro Shimura and Sensuke Naruse, members of the mushroom research group at Mie University Graduate School of Medicine. Were introduced science articles, showing that α-glucan, found in Brazilian agaric, is an effective agent against malignant tumors various bodies. It can be said that at this time an extensive research began medicinal properties mushroom and Agaric production in Japan and China. Currently, the Japanese and Chinese consume 90% of all Agarik produced. There are many books, TV specials, Internet sites dedicated to Brazilian agaric. One book, called "Magic Food Against Cancer", has already been reprinted 63 times. Since April 2002, in Japan and China, Coca-Cola has been releasing a "mushroom" cola containing Brazilian agaric.

Raw materials

The mushroom is grown in China on special plantations in special climatic conditions. After harvesting the grown crop, the mushrooms are cleaned and dried under certain conditions in the so-called. luophilic drying, when all moisture from the fruiting body is carefully removed. After that, the dried mushroom is crushed and those substances that are needed are extracted - extraction is performed, as a result of which only 10% of the original weight remains (standard 10: 1, where 1 kg of extract is obtained from 10 kg of dried mushrooms).

The fact is that simply ground powder does not have the healing properties that for which Agarik became famous. In order for the drug to be easily digestible and, accordingly, potent, it is necessary to carry out a number of chemical and physical procedures in the conditions of pharmaceutical production. This production must comply with the global GMP (Good Manufacturing of Practical) standard - a very strict pharmaceutical standard - it takes into account everything, every little thing, such as the number of bacteria per one cubic meter, wall coverings, modern equipment, and most importantly - you need a constantly high quality of raw materials. The produced extract is packed in a sealed package that excludes the influence of moisture and light and is sterilized.

What diseases can Brazilian Agaric be used for?

Treatment and prevention

oncological diseases (malignant tumors);

benign tumors;

Use as an additional tool before and after chemotherapy and radiation therapy;

Treatment and prevention of liver damage of any nature:

viral hepatitis B, C, D, J, the initial stages of cirrhosis, fatty degeneration, hepatosis, etc.;

Successful treatment of allergies and skin diseases;

Treatment for weakened or impaired immunity;

Treatment and prevention of high incidence of infectious diseases, including colds and flu;

Treatment of persons subjected to physical or emotional stress;

It is an antioxidant and helps to destroy peroxide radicals;

Used by athletes to restore and strengthen muscles;

It is highly effective against atherosclerosis and lowers cholesterol;

Protects from the effects of radiation;

What is the basis for the highly effective action of Brazilian Agaricus in various diseases?

The main component of Brazilian Agaric is a family of sugar molecules (also called polysaccharides) called beta-glucans (hereinafter referred to as glucan). One of the most important beta-glucans is the well-known -D-glucan.

Glucan is a unique compound, first discovered in mushrooms about 30 years ago, and has been studied in many institutions around the world. - glucans play the same important role in immunology, as penicillin is in the world of antibiotics.

In the process of using β-glucans, no toxicity or side effects were detected.

Glucan has been studied for 36 years. by the most important property-glucan is that it is an important immune activator. It increases nonspecific and specific immunity. This is done by defining and activating immune cells, primarily macrophages, T-killers, T-helpers and NK cells.

The cell membranes of these lymphocytes have specific receptors for α-glucan. When β-glucan attaches to the receptor, lymphocytes are activated to identify and kill invading pathogens. -glucan stimulates the production of cytokines: interferon and interleukins to accelerate defense by activating T-cells (T-killers and T-helpers), NK cells and other cells of the immune system. In addition, β-glucan can set in motion the release of tumor necrosis factor (TNF), a potent protective protein and superoxide, which induces human blood cells, such as monocytes, to wage chemical warfare against aggressors.

Very important is that -glucan stimulates the production of immune cells in the bone marrow.

The mechanism of action is described in more detail below.

In addition to the described -glucans, Agaric contains a large number of active ingredients:

Agaric contains pyroglutamates, which give an equally important and strong effect- blocking the circulatory system of the tumor (see below);

Agaric also contains steroids that directly affect carcinoma cells and inhibit tumor growth. Steroids derived from Brazilian agaric have antitumor activity, which is especially important for cancer prevention. These hormones should not be confused with steroids taken by athletes to improve performance.

Provitamin D3, a precursor to vitamin D, has no anticancer activity on its own. But studies have shown that a new synthetic steroid, biosynthesized from provitamin D3, also inhibits the spread of carcinoma cells. Even if carcinoma cells have begun to form in the body, the tumor develops much more slowly.

Brazilian mushroom contains 3.6% lipids, of which 26.8% are neutral lipids and 73.2% are phospholipids. That is, the main part of the lipids of the fungus are phospholipids. The lipid can be broken down into linoleic, palmitic, oleic, and palmitoleic acids, all of which are active against cancer. Researchers at the University of Tokyo found that Brazilian agaric contains essential fatty acid, linoleic. This acid is known for its anti-mutagenic properties. They also found antimicrobial substances in agaric.

1. Oncology (treatment of malignant tumors)

Brazilian Agaric is one of the most famous and powerful anticancer mushrooms. And although it began to be studied later than shiitake, maitake or reishi, but after receiving pronounced results in therapy different types tumors, his anti-cancer properties have been studied in many laboratories around the world.

His high efficiency in the treatment of malignant tumors, multiple mechanisms of action on the tumor are explained. Therapy with Brazilian Agaricus extract and other anticancer mushrooms is currently one of the most promising in relation to other methods of treatment.

See the mechanism of action below.

2. Benign tumors

Agaricus extract shows serious activity in therapy benign neoplasms: polyps, adenomas, fibroadenomas, papillomas, myomas, etc. The mechanism of action is similar to that in the treatment of malignant tumors.

3. Viral hepatitis

Brazilian Agaricus extract has been used for many years in complex therapy viral hepatitis B and C. Without directly affecting the virus, its active ingredients restore damaged tissues and liver functions: normal synthesis of bile and enzymes is restored, while reducing the pathological values ​​of aminotransferases. When using Agaric extract, the clinical symptoms of the disease disappear. Research and practical experience showed a stable result of therapy - the preservation of biochemical parameters for a long time after the end of treatment.

4. Stimulation of hematopoiesis

When using a number of chemotherapeutic drugs, with chronic blood loss and anemia, the question arises of fast recovery cellular composition blood - erythrocytes and leukocytes. Agaricus polysaccharides have proven to be an effective and safe agent that stimulates the formation of hematopoietic cells - their reproduction and maturation is accelerated.

5. Diabetes and its prevention

Our therapeutic observations indicate the efficacy of Brazilian Agaricus extract in diabetes and complications caused by it.

Agaricus glucans are less effective in diabetes than Maitake or Shiitake glucans, but in some cases the addition of Agaricus to the general therapeutic regimen led to a positive result. Its various glucans are capable of lowering elevated level blood glucose, which favorably affects the entire complex therapy.

6. Allergic diseases

Agarik is necessarily included in allergy therapy, because. it has the ability to inhibit the mechanism of manifestation of allergies - it inhibits the release mast cells histamine, a substance that causes reddening of the skin. In the treatment of allergies, it is possible to combine it with Reishi mushroom extract - a well-known anti-allergic agent in the East.

7. Chronic fatigue syndrome

Agaric has been shown to be useful in the prevention and treatment of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS). In patients with CFS, there is a deficiency of natural killer activity and a low level of T-lymphocytes. The action of Agarik on these lymphocytes and the mechanisms of increasing their level in the blood are described above.

8. Immunodeficiency

In addition to the effect on cellular immunity described above (macrophages, cytotoxic lymphocytes and natural killers), Agaricus extract has the ability to increase the activity of lymphocytes - T-helpers. It is these cells that are affected by the HIV virus. The use of Agarik allows you to achieve softening clinical picture HIV patients and achieve long-term remission of the disease.

9. Skin problems/wound healing

The effect of Agaricus on the skin is that it promotes skin rejuvenation and wound healing. In addition to this -1,3-D-glucan agarica can be rubbed into certain types of skin tumors.

What is the mechanism of action of Brazilian Agaricus in the treatment of cancer?

Three such mechanisms are currently known:

A. The first mechanism- characteristic of many medicinal mushrooms and consists in the fact that Agaricus polysaccharides - mainly -1,3-1,6 D-glucans, are able to activate the "sleeping" human antitumor immune system.

It is known that in a cancer patient the cells that make up antitumor surveillance - macrophages, natural killers and cytotoxic T-lymphocytes - are in an inactive state. These inactive lymphocytes have a low rate of maturation, and young cells are unable to complete work. They have a short lifespan, during which they do not have time to fulfill their function. Thus, even when normal amount macrophages, NK cells and CTLs, the tumor node can develop without encountering obstacles from the body.

Agaricus glucans are unique in that they do a triple job:

Accelerate the rate of maturation of lymphocytes;

Increase the life span of lymphocytes;

Activate their antitumor functions;

As a result of activation, lymphocytes acquire the ability to actively detect and, if detected, destroy tumor cells. Each cell occupies its own clear niche in the antitumor surveillance of the body:

A macrophage is a very large lymphocyte, a “big eater”, having found a malignant cell, swallows it, digests it, but not all of it - those parts of the tumor cell that can serve for further recognition of the same cells are thrown out by it. These sites are subsequently transferred to other antitumor cells.

Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) is a "mobile arsenal", a cell that can destroy any stranger. She has at her disposal high-precision and diverse weapons, which she uses upon recognizing an alien agent. When approaching a tumor cell, the CTL checks its surface marks - antigens, and if it has doubts about the goodness of the cell, it destroys it. To do this, it attaches to the tumor cell - it comes into full contact, so that its substances do not damage neighboring, "good" cells and throws out polymer proteins - the so-called. perforins, which are quickly integrated into the outer shell of the cell and form large holes through which water and salts freely pass. Osmotic pressure falls in the cage and she dies. But some cells are able to survive from such an attack, so the CTL has more powerful weapons in stock - "granzymes". These substances penetrate after perforins and completely destroy the nucleus of the tumor cell, after which its 100% death occurs.

Natural killer - a lymphocyte, the mechanism of action of which is similar to that of CTL - the same perforins and granzymes are used. But, unlike CTL, it uses other, yet unknown to science, mechanisms for detecting malignant cells. The fact is that tumor cells have their own defense mechanisms - in some cases they can drop antigens from their surface shell - marks that can give them away. In this case, the CTL is powerless - it will simply pass by. It just needs a natural killer that bypasses such tricks cancer cell and recognizes it and destroys it anyway.

There are many important intermediate links in the antitumor surveillance system, without which this mechanism cannot work. So, there are a large number of substances that transmit information from a cell to a cell; substances that trigger the reproduction mechanisms of macrophages, CTLs and natural killers; substances that promote the activation of these cells. These substances are called cytokines. The balanced work of the entire immunity depends on the amount of these substances. So, Agarik's -glucans stimulate the release of these substances when they are not enough for real work.

B. Second mechanism is rare in medicinal mushrooms (for example, Maitake still has it) - this is the ability to block the development of the circulatory system of the tumor. The fact is that the tumor cannot increase in size by more than 2 mm if it does not receive nutrients from the blood. To do this, she releases a substance - vascular growth factor which causes the body to germinate a tumor blood vessels by which she gets everything necessary food and gets rid of the products of its metabolism. These vessels are imperfect, often fail, but the tumor receives new ones in return. Agaricus substances (pyroglutamates and ergosterols) block tumor secretion vascular factors growth and as a result - a gradual cessation of tumor nutrition and its subsequent "shrinkage".

IN . Third mechanism is that Agaricus glucans help antitumor lymphocytes - Macrophages, Cytotoxic T-lymphocytes and natural killers to penetrate into the tumor node and fight not only at the border of the tumor, but also inside. This mechanism dramatically increases the overall effectiveness of anticancer therapy.

Fungotherapy. Mushroom treatment.

The life cycle of agaricus is about 75 years. However healing power have young, white, not yet hardened mushrooms. Collect them from spring to mid-summer. Then they are cleaned of the remaining bark and other excess impurities. Then dry in a well-ventilated area.

Let's figure out how the larch sponge mushroom agaricus is useful, we will study the medicinal properties, and cook from it healing remedies.

What is the value of larch sponge?

Agaricus larch is valuable for its composition. It contains useful organic acids, essential oils and mineral salts. It contains phytosterols, resinous substances, the polysaccharide lafinol. As well as mineral salts, glucose, vitamins and minerals.

Larch sponge has been used to treat ailments since ancient times. More than a thousand years ago, the legendary healer Ibn Sina mentioned her. Until now, the mushroom is used for stomach ulcers, jaundice, asthma. Agaricus-based products are used as a sedative for nervous diseases, as well as to reduce hemoptysis.

It is useful to take an infusion, a decoction for tuberculosis (to eliminate debilitating night sweats), Graves' disease. The mushroom is effective in diabetes, neuralgia. It is used in the treatment of certain cancers. Larch sponge is useful for constipation, as it has a laxative effect. It is also well known for its hemostatic properties.

Indications for the use of Agaricus

Medicines prepared from the fungus are recommended for weight loss, in violation of metabolic processes, for the treatment of helminthiasis, chronic and viral hepatitis. The fungus generally has the most positive effect on the liver, it is used to treat diseases of this organ. More, I will tell you about it a little later.

Traditional medicine recommends using a larch sponge for the treatment of acute, chronic bronchitis, pleurisy, inflammatory diseases lungs, tuberculosis, fever. Infusion, decoction of the fungus is used in the complex treatment of dysbacteriosis, neurasthenia, used to destroy pathogenic flora in the body.

Treatment of liver diseases

The medicinal properties of the larch sponge are used for various liver diseases. This is due to the fact that the fungus contains the active substance lanofil. This substance activates the liver, helps it break down fats more efficiently, getting rid of them. As a result of such exposure, the disturbed metabolism is restored.

It must be said that no famous drug cannot regulate the process of splitting fats as efficiently as the agaricus mushroom can do. Therefore, drugs based on the fungus are used to treat fatty liver.

Specialists traditional medicine it is recommended to use the mushroom as an additional remedy in the treatment of hepatitis B and C, cirrhosis of the liver, and some malignant tumors. Due to its medicinal properties, the fungus is used to treat the biliary tract, as it contributes to the destruction of the pathogenic microflora in them.

How to prepare medicinal products?

Infusion

To prepare an infusion from a larch sponge, grind it sharp knife. Then put 1 tsp. raw materials into a small glass, ceramic dishes, add a glass of boiled water only. Wrap with something warm, such as a heated towel, or place between pillows. You need to wait 8 hours until the product is well infused. It is even better to prepare the infusion in a thermos. Now strain, drink warm, a third of a glass three times a day.

In this form, the larch sponge is used as a laxative and also as a sedative. If you take the infusion before going to bed, it will have a slight hypnotic effect.

Quick infusion

If necessary, you can prepare the infusion faster. To do this, chop the mushroom as small as possible. Pour 1 tsp. in a mug, add a third of a glass of boiling water. But you still have to insist at least 4 hours. Then strain, drink 1 tbsp. l. along with food.

Decoction

To prepare a decoction, pour 1 tbsp. l. chopped mushroom, add one and a half cups of purified soft water, boil, then cook over very low heat for half an hour. Then leave covered for another 4 hours. Strain the finished broth, drink 1 tbsp. l. 3 to 4 times a day. Use the decoction in the treatment of the liver, as well as in other ailments listed above.

Important!

Before using larch sponge in treatment, do not forget to consult your doctor. The fact is that the mushroom is poisonous and its improper use can lead to negative consequences and complications. And yet - in no case do not use this mushroom during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Be healthy!

Name in Latin: Laricis fungus

Synonyms: larch sponge, larch tinder, agaric, white tinder

Description

Agaricus is the king of all medicines. Such an expression can be found in ancient manuscripts devoted to healing. The meaning of this phrase is largely relevant today.

Agaricus grows in the northeastern regions of the European part of Russia, but most of all it can be found beyond the Urals - in Siberia and the Far East. The mushroom has an enviable longevity: it can reach the age of 75 years, while growing up to 10 kilograms in weight and 30 centimeters in length.

In order to obtain medicinal raw materials, it is necessary to collect young mushrooms. They are distinguished from the old ones by their small size and more light color, inside they should be white, loose and soft. Older mushrooms, on the other hand, are hard as wood, and their insides can be painted.

Agaricus harvesting season begins in spring and lasts until mid-summer. Mushrooms can be knocked down from trees using a strong stick, or separated with an axe. Harvested mushrooms should be cleaned of debris and hard bark, and then dried and stored in a well-ventilated room.

Chemical composition

The medicinal value of Agaricus is provided by the high content, and minerals. Among the acids that Larch sponge is rich in are malic, fumaric, citric, agaricic, eburicolic, ricinolic. In the dried raw material is found great amount useful - their specific gravity increases as the fungus grows, they can be up to 80%. The larch sponge also contains glucose, phytosterols and polysaccharides.

Application and history of use

Records of the miraculous properties of Agaricus are found in historical evidence from the most ancient times. For thousands of years, this mushroom has been called the "elixir of life" and has been used to treat a variety of ailments.

The famous physician Avicenna mentioned the larch sponge in his writings, recommending it for various ailments. There is also a legend about the Hellenic king Mithridates, who from childhood took a special potion based on Agaricus, which protects against poisoning. When Mithridates was defeated in one of the battles, he took strong poison in order to die and not be captured by enemies - but did not get the desired result, so strong protection from poisons he managed to gain thanks to a larch sponge.

The ancient Greeks highly valued Agaricus - "the king of all medicines", buying large quantities of it in their overseas voyages, because this mushroom did not grow in their country. They paid for it in pure silver, giving it as much as dried mushrooms weighed.

Agaricus export

From pre-revolutionary Russia, Agaricus was actively exported to Europe and Asia. IN modern Russia Agaricus is also actively exported to Europe and Asia. Its properties were appreciated by both Arab and European physicians. As an antidote, it was also used by one of the most famous poisoners - the French Queen Catherine de Medici.

Russian experience in the use of larch sponge

Russian doctors also did not bypass the larch sponge with their attention. They were treated for respiratory diseases - consumption, asthma, as well as stomach ulcers, diabetes and jaundice. Perhaps Yermak would not have returned from a campaign in Siberia if the local doctor had not given him the infusion of Agaricus when the ataman fell ill from severe consumption - at that time it was almost the only available cure for such a disease.

Powder from Agaricus was also used as baby powder. The healing properties of the larch sponge have long been used to treat wounds, including during military campaigns. In Rus', a method for making special “pulp” was known: mushrooms were boiled in a special way and divided into fibers, resulting in an excellent dressing material that perfectly absorbed blood and ensured the speedy healing of injuries. This cotton-like substance was taken with them by warriors who went to battle. Later, “tinder wool” was obtained in a similar way, which was used during the Second World War in Soviet hospitals.

The use of Agaricus in the treatment of diseases of the respiratory system

From ancient times to this day, Agaricus has been used as effective remedy for the treatment of various respiratory diseases. It has a healing effect on pneumonia, acute and chronic bronchitis, pleurisy, tuberculosis. Larch sponge, infused with water, helps to cope with excessive sweating, which affects patients with fever and tuberculosis.

The use of Agaricus in the treatment of gastrointestinal diseases and hormonal disorders

In case of liver diseases, Agaricus exhibits healing properties due to the content of lanofil in it. This polysaccharide stimulates the liver, promotes faster breakdown of fats and their removal from the body, eventually normalizing the metabolism and establishing the correct fermentation process in the liver. Therefore, preparations with Agaricus are recommended for the most various violations in the work of the liver, with cirrhosis, chronic and viral hepatitis B and C, for the treatment of helminthiasis and tumors. Agaricus is useful for the biliary tract, as it helps to cope with pathogenic microorganisms. The larch sponge also shows important medicinal effects in the fight against Graves' disease, and can make life easier for patients with diabetes. Agaricus is very useful for constipation - it is a natural remedy with an excellent laxative effect.

Decoctions and infusions of Agaricus are often part of programs for the treatment of dysbacteriosis. Their positive action is known for neuralgia and neurasthenia. Agaricus exhibits its sedative properties and has a mild hypnotic effect.

The use of Agaricus in oncology

In oncological diseases, Agaricus is prescribed during radio- and chemotherapy. Its ability to remove toxins and poisons from the body helps prevent unwanted effects from radiation and reduces the side effects of taking strong chemical drugs.

It is also known that Agaricus exhibits antiviral activity, helps to destroy pathogenic microflora in the lungs, biliary tract and liver, has diuretic action. Means based on this fungus often become assistants in the treatment of hyperthyroidism. Both hemostatic and wound-healing properties of Agaricus find their application. And in the recommendations oriental medicine Agaricus is recommended as a means of rejuvenating the body, helping to push back and reverse the aging process.

Agaricus side effects and contraindications

Good afternoon, dear Yulia Evgenievna.

I drank the Agaricus tincture very easily, two courses in a row. After that, she drank a course of red fly agaric tincture.

Good day, Faina!
There is no mysticism. Odors are emitted by specific substances, or substrates, or organs that communicate with external environment. Let's remember them - sweat, urine, vaginal discharge, nasal discharge with purulent rhinitis, sputum, saliva. Most often there is a smell from the mouth, which is felt by others.
Its causes are spoiled teeth, tonsils with purulent plugs, poor digestion of food in the stomach. You may be suffering from severe constipation. Then both the skin and the lungs are forced to connect to the removal of toxins (indole, skatole, which have extremely unpleasant odors). The same happens when high levels urea.
In any case, each of these conditions must be treated.
But your clothes don't smell, so the discharge smells. And probably vaginal.
It is necessary to treat cervicitis. In any of listed case The smell does not mask, but eliminates Aromatherapy. Start by ingesting the emulsion obtained by mixing aroma oil with hot water. Then sweat glands and skin pores begin to release esters with the appropriate aroma. For example:
1. - 3 drops, hot drinking water - 100.0 ml.
Mix and beat with a mixer. Drink three times a day, 30 minutes before meals.
You can take another with a strong and pleasant aroma -,,,,, etc.
1.1. Add spices to food - ginger, cinnamon, vanilla.
2. Conduct a course of detoxification and bile excretion.

1 tbsp chopped mushroom pour 300.0 ml of water and cook at a minimum boil for 20 minutes. Insist 3 hours, strain. Drink 2 tbsp. 4 times a day, 20 minutes before meals. Course - 2 months.
3. In case of cervicitis.
Pasta Enteros gel.
It has absorbent and anti-inflammatory properties.
It is enough to treat the vagina in a circle three times a day.
But your very first actions are an appointment with the dentist and ENT for the diagnosis and sanitation of teeth and oral cavity.
GOOD LUCK, Faina!

Good afternoon
I have toenail fungus and often have warts. IN Lately on the skin itchy irritations with exfoliation of the skin. Still itches in the auricles and after the toilet, for the most part, it burns the skin near the anus.
I watched the lecture "..." on YouTube, he says that all these are lower fungal formations and they need to be treated with higher fungal ones, for example, Ogarik.
And what do you advise?

Hello, Alexander!
The activity of "...", of course, inspires respect. With all this, it is necessary to prove the invasion of fungi by Candida white, black, or aspergillus) - it is necessary. It is possible that you have another skin disease; and anal itching is a sign of hemorrhoids, or pinworm infestation.
Address to the dermatovenereologist, he will make scrapings. In addition, it is important to find out the degree of human papillomavirus infection. It is precisely manifested by warts - PCR to the DNA of this virus.
If candidiasis and HPV are confirmed, put the tincture:
1. Thuja western tincture.
- 30.0 g of chopped needles insist in 100.0 ml of vodka for 10-12 days. Strain, use externally.
For oral administration - 10 drops with water, twice a day, for 2-3 weeks.
And, in general, higher mushrooms, for example, red fly agaric, have the strongest antifungal properties - when used externally in a diluted form.
Agaricus does not differ as such, or does not have an evidence base.
It was interesting, Alexander, thanks!
But I would like to help you - see you!

Hello Anastasia!

You write that a microadenoma has been diagnosed. So, you need to remove it, because it can stimulate the synthesis of androgens in the adrenal glands. Androgens automatically increase blood sugar levels. If microadenoma and Cushing's disease are rejected, Cushing's syndrome (adrenal androgenism) remains. But then other androgens are needed - DHEAS, 17-OH-progesterone, cortisol, androstenedione. With an increase in even one of these hormones, antiandrogen therapy is needed. Then she will reduce hirsutism, lower sugar levels.

2 tbsp mixture pour 500.0 ml of cold drinking water for an hour, then bring to a boil. Simmer over low heat or boiling water bath, covered, 15 minutes.

Cool, strain, squeeze and add to 500.0 ml.

Drink 200.0 ml in the morning, on an empty stomach; and 100.0 ml 3 more times a day, 30 minutes before meals. Course - 2 months.

Good day, Natalia!

I will give you the strongest herbs. BUT without willpower, physical activity and diet, they can not do!

1 tsp powdered (flour) mushroom pour 150.0 boiling water; insist in heat for 5 minutes, stir vigorously and drink without leaving a residue.

Drink with an acute feeling of hunger.

1.1. Main reception.

1 tbsp chopped mushroom Agaricus pour 300.0 ml of water and cook at a minimum boil for 20 minutes. Insist 3 hours, strain. Drink 1-2 tbsp. 4 times a day. Course - 2 months.

3. After a bowel movement, for half a day the blood seems to be in the rectum, it burns, it disappears in the evening, not hemorrhoids.

Once a week I fast for a day, what can I drink on an empty stomach to restore it?

Good afternoon

We would like to thank you for your interest in the site, Vasily. If in the section "Encyclopedia" you read about the roots of Rosehip and find out that such effects as the disappearance of wen are not described in it. However, if he removed them (according to his wife), it was due to choleretic effects. We have already discussed this with you.

Discomfort in the rectum, in the absence of blood stasis, may be caused by constipation, but you do not write about it.

I think the cleaner will suit you. But it is possible that others natural remedies with strong choleretic effects will be even more effective. For example, Stone Oil or Agaricus!

The best way to soothe the stomach is a diet, regular intake of warm food in small volumes, warm heating pad on the epigastric region, the general calm mood.

2.0 g of dry grass pour 100.0 ml of 60% alcohol, leave for 7 days, strain and drink 10-12 drops 3 times a day, before meals, in 1 tbsp. water. Course - 1 month, break 14 days and repeat if necessary. Celandine is moderately poisonous, do not exceed the dose!

Keep me posted, Vasily, GOOD LUCK!

Hello, dear Hope!

I am happy to answer your question! Agaricus certainly helps with hyperhidrosis of any origin. But it would be more correct to find out its causes - chronic intoxication, perhaps even tuberculosis; vegetative vascular dystonia, menopause, etc.

I would be happy to help with this if you indicate your age, weight and height, and what worsens the quality of your life.

For now, here's the recipe:

10.0 grams of chopped mushroom pour 400.0 ml of vodka for 2 weeks. Drink 1 tbsp. 3 times a day, 30 minutes before meals.

Course - 3 weeks, break 2 weeks and repeat.

The same tincture should be used topically, rubbing into axillary areas after shower.

Baths with hyssp medicinal will also help:

Hello Irina!

This is a sore subject for many! Herbal collections can be made as much as you like, and the basis should always be laxatives, bile-diuretic, deceitful herbs (swelling in the stomach, reducing hunger) and herbs that improve the speed of digestion and all energy processes. Therefore, it is easiest to lose weight on iodine-containing herbs. But everyone suffering from edema and overweight should urgently check their thyroid gland. Very often, it "slows down", which is manifested by increased TSH and reduced hormones T4 and T3.

But only a certain diet and competent diet will really help to lose weight. physical exercise. You can trust trained specialists - a nutritionist and a trainer. After all, we don’t have anyone more precious than ourselves!).

Today, many people use the so-called Paleoprotocol. The diet is quite physiological and is tolerated easily and without stress. If there is no time for a coach, you can just jump rope!

Your scheme, Irina:

1 tbsp chopped mushroom pour 300.0 ml of water and cook at a minimum boil for 20 minutes. Insist 3 hours, strain. Drink 2-3 tbsp. 4 times a day.

But you can choose the amount yourself, according to choleretic effects and stool! For example, drink 30.0 ml or even 40.0 ml Course - 2 months.

2.1. Actually collecting herbs.

Grind grass and fruits evenly to 2-3 mm, roots to 3-5 mm. - at the beginning mechanically to small pieces, then on a coffee grinder; mix evenly.

Herbs without a dose should be taken in tablespoons.

1 tbsp mixture with a slide, pour 400.0 ml of cold drinking water for an hour, then bring to a boil. Simmer over low heat or boiling water bath, covered, 15 minutes.

Cool, strain, squeeze and add to 400.0 ml.

Drink 100.0 ml 4 times a day, 30 minutes before meals. Course - 2 months.

With wishes of success and good mood, all the best!

Good afternoon I am 51 years old. I have a 22 year old triad of asthma, allergies and nasal polyps. I have year-round allergies, which doctors don’t know about, it’s clear that it’s for drugs with aspirin. For the last 2 years I haven’t taken pills at all. Asthma is in remission, but polyps have tortured me. During these years, she made 18 operations. The last one was a year and 9 months ago. And now, they are again preparing for the operation. I don't want to do it, but I WANT to breathe. I washed my nose with salt water, dripped Mumiyo and thuja oil. I am allergic to celandine. There are also stones in the gallbladder (4-2 small and 2 of 2.4 mm each), they also say that they need to be removed. I suffer from heartburn, there is no gastritis, but there is esophagitis. Advise what you can drink so that polyps stop growing. Thank you.

Hello!

You can try, but the risk of causing allergies is high. Therefore, always test for any new remedy, especially grass. But I would bet on food. More precisely, its absence. If you want to ruff the question radically, I advise therapeutic fasting. As a rule, it is very conducive to the resorption of benign tumors. If this is not possible, an elimination diet. Read about it, accept it or don't accept it. BUT, in any case, completely rethink your table.

1. Agaricus, long

1 st. l. chopped mushroom pour 300.0 ml of water and cook at a minimum boil for 20 minutes. Infuse for 3 hours, strain. Drink 1-2 tbsp. 4 times a day. The course is 2 months.

2. Collection of herbs for oral administration

Grind grass and fruits evenly to 2-3 mm, roots to 3-5 mm. - at the beginning mechanically to small pieces, then on a coffee grinder; mix evenly. Take herbs without indicating the dose in tablespoons.

2 tbsp mixture, pour 500.0 ml of cold drinking water overnight, and bring to a boil in the morning. Simmer over low heat or boiling water bath, covered, 5 minutes. Remove and insist hour. Strain, squeeze, top up to 500.0 ml. Drink 200.0 ml in the morning on an empty stomach; and 100.0 before lunch and dinner. Course from 2 months.

Hypericum perforatum oil

25.0 gr. herbs pour 250.0 olive or linseed oil, simmer in a boiling water bath for 1 hour and insist for 2 hours, tightly wrapped. Strain, store in a dark cool place.

Drink 1 tsp. in a reclining position - after each meal.

3.1. Let's try Stone oil - for washing with a solution of 1.0 gr. / 1.0 liter. Rinse daily using at least 70.0 ml of a well-filtered solution. Course - 1-2 weeks.

3.2. Second phase

Alpine cyclamen tuber juice. Before use, extract the juice, combine 1:2:1 with kalanchoe juice and Aloe. Drip 2-3 drops into each nostril 3-4 times a day. Course - 2 weeks.

Prepare a decoction from a small amount of one herb and water, soak a natural cloth in the decoction and fix for an hour in the middle of the inner side of the forearm. The absence of redness, swelling, itching is an invitation to safe use and vice versa.

SUCCESS, Tatyana and getting rid of the problem!

See you!
