Today, there are more than 200 species of a plant called jaundice, but only two of them have medicinal properties - gray (or sprawling) and leftkoy. It should be noted that these two types are almost identical in their properties and application.

Jaundice, which is popularly called the core, or saved herb, occupies a leading position among herbs used in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, both in folk and traditional medicine. The properties of this plant, the forms of its use, indications and contraindications will be discussed further.

The height of gray jaundice, which is a biennial plant, is about 30 - 90 cm. This type of jaundice has a grayish color due to short, pressed hairs. It grows on rocky and grassy slopes, along roadsides, in dry meadows, and also in pine forests. Jaundice gray is the strongest cardiac glycoside, due to which it is used to normalize cardiac activity and in the treatment of such diseases:

  • angina;
  • arrhythmia;
  • dropsy of cardiac origin;
  • hypertension;
  • atherosclerosis.
In medicine, the aerial part of the plant is used - grass and seeds. The levkoin icterus is an annual plant that differs from gray icterus in pale yellow petals, the length of which does not exceed 5 mm. Plant height can reach 120 cm.

This type of jaundice grows in meadows and edges, in riverine sands, as well as along roads and in fields. Jaundice levokoy, like sprawling, is used as a heart remedy. In addition, it is part of drugs designed to eliminate convulsive cough.

Since ancient times, jaundice has been considered a potent heart remedy that will not only quickly relieve heart pain, but also improve mood, normalize sleep and calm nerves.

The effect of jaundice on the human body:

  • improvement of cardiac activity;
  • normalization and strengthening of the functioning of the heart muscle;
  • slowing of the heart rate;
  • expansion of peripheral blood vessels;
  • reduction of congestion;
  • normalization of the central nervous system;
  • mood improvement;
  • sleep normalization.
Diseases in which jaundice is indicated:
  • heart defects;
  • myocarditis;
  • acute and chronic heart failure;
  • bronchial asthma;
  • phlebeurysm;
  • thrombophlebitis;
  • cardiosclerosis;
  • angina;
  • ischemia;
  • hypertension;
  • arrhythmia;
  • kidney failure;
  • pulmonary tuberculosis;
  • headache;
  • insomnia;
  • neuroses;
  • dyspnea;
  • dropsy of cardiac origin.
Jaundice juice is used in the manufacture of the drug Cardiovalen, which is widely used in the treatment of heart disease. It should be noted that jaundice is not accumulated by the human body, as a result of which it is not addictive, like, for example, valerian. This allows you to take its preparations for a long time, especially if the plant is part of the fees. Jaundice has a fairly strong biological activity - therefore, it is necessary to use drugs that include this plant very carefully, observing the dosages prescribed by the doctor.

jaundice herb

As a medicinal raw material, the aerial dried parts of the jaundice, which are single branched stems with leaves and flowers, are mainly used. Jaundice grass has a peculiar aroma and a very bitter taste. It has an antihelminthic, expectorant and anticonvulsant effect, therefore it is used in the treatment of cough, pulmonary tuberculosis, bronchitis.

jaundice seeds

The seeds of the plant are used as a wound healing agent, which is indicated for difficult-to-heal wounds, scurvy, and aching bones. Jaundice is collected during the flowering period, that is, from May to June, while the seeds of the plant ripen in June and July. In this case, one should take into account the fact that during the period of full blooming of flowers, the activity of medicinal raw materials decreases. When collecting raw materials, the aerial part is cut off, without the lower stem, after which it is immediately dried in the fresh air, in a dryer (at a temperature of 40 - 60 degrees) or in the attic.

Attention! Wetting of raw materials is unacceptable.

After drying, the grass is necessarily cleaned of impurities and dust. Dried raw materials are stored in a darkened and well-ventilated room, no more than a year. At the same time, after six months of storage, the medicinal properties of the plant decrease. To store the herb, hermetically sealed cardboard boxes or paper bags are used. The herb and seeds of both types of jaundice contain thirteen cardiac glycosides, the most active of which are erizimin and ericordin.

Erysimin action:

  • slow heart rate;
  • increased systole;
  • diastole lengthening;
  • normalization of blood circulation.
Action of ericordin:
  • lowering blood pressure;
  • increase in the intensity of coronary blood flow;
  • normalization of cardiac activity.
The action of cardiac glycosides in general:
  • increased myocardial contractility;
  • slowing of atrioventricular conduction;
  • decrease in heart rate;
  • increase in excitability.
Also, drugs, the components of which are cardiac glycosides, have a vasoconstrictive and diuretic effect. Properties of flavonoids: 1. Capillary-strengthening. 2. Cardiotropic action:
  • cardiotonic;
  • coronary dilator;
  • antiarrhythmic.
3. Antispasmodic: flavonoids eliminate spasms of smooth muscle fibers provoked by various endogenous and exogenous factors. 4. Sedative. 5. Diuretic. 6. Diuretic. 7. Choleretic. 8. Hepatoprotective. 9. Antioxidant. 10. Anti-inflammatory. 11. Hemostatic. Flavonoids have low toxicity, so they can be used for a long time. It is the main source of energy for humans. In addition, glucose provides metabolic processes, thereby normalizing the functioning of all body systems. They perform an energy function: energy is generated during the breakdown of fatty acids. In addition, acids are assigned a plastic function, which consists in the fact that they take part in the construction of membranes that make up the skeleton of cells.

Fatty acids are components of various lipids (eg, phosphatides, glycerides, waxes, and cholesterol) involved in metabolism.

Organic acids play an important role in the metabolic process: for example, they participate in the biosynthesis of alkaloids, glycosides, amino acids and other biologically active compounds. Also, organic acids are a link that connects the individual stages of the metabolism of fats, proteins, carbohydrates. Jaundice includes ascorbic, malic, citric acids. Bitter substances are considered to be excellent appetite stimulants. In addition, preparations with bitter substances are distinguished by a choleretic effect. Medicinal properties of jaundice:

  • soothing;
  • diuretic;
  • expectorant;
  • antiscorbutic;
  • hypnotic;
  • choleretic;
  • anti-inflammatory.
In case of violation of the functioning of the cardiac system, jaundice preparations are used to:
  • removal of excess fluid from the body;
  • cleaning blood vessels;
  • increased contraction of the heart muscle.
Jaundice gray and levkoin are used to normalize the functioning of the cardiovascular system. In addition, jaundice helps to improve the function of the neuromuscular apparatus of the heart, thereby beneficially influencing the restoration of the normal functioning of all internal organs.

Jaundice preparations have high biological activity, being effective means for the treatment of inflammatory and traumatic processes. So, with skin lesions, the use of a plant not only improves cell nutrition, but also softens dry skin. Under the influence of glycosides, edema is significantly reduced and blood circulation is restored in general.

I must say that in terms of the content of glycosides, jaundice is many times superior to digitalis, adonis and lily of the valley, which are widely used today in medicine. At the same time, jaundice glycosides are found in absolutely all organs of this plant, although the seeds and flowers are the richest in them.

In the course of the studies, it was proved that the preparations of jaundice in their properties and effects on the body are similar to the drug Strofantin, indicated for such diseases:

  • acute and chronic cardiovascular insufficiency II and III degree, accompanied by severe circulatory disorders;
  • tachycardia;
  • flickering arrhythmia.
Jaundice affects the body as follows:
  • increases the strength and speed of myocardial contraction;
  • reduces heart rate;
  • reduces atrioventricular conduction;
  • promotes emptying of the ventricles, which reduces the size of the heart and reduces myocardial oxygen demand.
Pharmacological tests have shown that jaundice preparations are almost 2 times more active than Strofantin. Moreover, herbal preparations are less toxic than Strofantin.

Jaundice herb juice is a component of Cardiovalen, which is a drug used to treat rheumatic heart disease, autonomic neurosis, stage I and IIA cardiosclerosis, as well as angina pectoris, not accompanied by organic changes in the heart vessels.

The intake of jaundice is also indicated for patients with diabetes mellitus, since this plant contributes to the production of insulin.

As an external agent, jaundice preparations are used in the treatment of breast cancer, as well as purulent tumors.

Thus, pharmaceutical preparations, which include gray jaundice and levkoin, are the most effective means used in the treatment of heart failure, accompanied by severe circulatory disorders (especially when prompt medical intervention is needed). So, after taking jaundice, firstly, the pulse evens out, and secondly, the heart rhythm normalizes.

A decoction of jaundice herb is used in medicine as an emergency remedy that can quickly normalize cardiac activity in general and blood circulation in particular. Jaundice in such situations slows down the heartbeat, evens out the pulse, improves cardiac activity.

To prepare a decoction 1 tsp. dry crushed raw materials are boiled in 300 ml of water over low heat for 10 minutes. The broth is filtered, after which its volume is brought to the initial 300 ml with boiled water. It is taken 1 tablespoon, no more than four times a day. This recipe will help to cope with chronic heart failure and edema of cardiac origin.

With the help of an infusion of jaundice, the following diseases are treated: 0.5 tsp. jaundice herbs should be poured with a glass of boiling water, and let the remedy brew for two hours. Then the infusion is filtered and taken in a tablespoon, three times a day. Stored in the refrigerator. The duration of the course of treatment is 2 months. The tincture is indicated for the treatment of such diseases: To prepare a compress or rubbing, you will need the following ingredients:

  • gray jaundice - 30 g;
  • propolis (crushed) - 20 g;
  • lemon (zest) - 1 pc.;
  • alcohol (40 percent) - 500 ml.
The listed components are mixed and infused for two hours. Rubbing the limbs with such a tincture is carried out before going to bed (in addition, tampons moistened with tincture can be applied to problem areas for an hour and a half). Gray jaundice is a poisonous plant. For this reason, its use should be carried out under medical supervision, and the dosage prescribed by the doctor should be strictly observed.

Jaundice preparations are contraindicated in:

An overdose of jaundice preparations can provoke arrhythmia and a decrease in pressure. In this case, you must immediately seek qualified medical help.

Signs of an overdose of jaundice preparations (observed mainly with an overdose of tincture of the plant):

This symptomatology is inherent in patients who have stagnation in the intestines. For this reason, before treatment with the use of jaundice, it is necessary to normalize the functioning of the intestines, for which you can resort to the help of enemas and separate meals.

An enema is administered once a day (the composition of the enema is 2 liters of boiled 40-degree water and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice). After eliminating the symptoms of poisoning, it is recommended to take a five-day break, and then continue treatment again.

Jaundice is used not only to normalize the work of the cardiac system, but also to get rid of extra pounds. The fact is that this plant contains bitterness, which, entering the duodenum, reduces blood sugar, thereby reducing the degree of obesity.

Also, the active substances of jaundice restore and normalize the functions of the liver and pancreas, removing swelling in renal failure. In the process of taking jaundice preparations, the pulse decreases, due to which the heart ceases to function debilitatingly, which eliminates arrhythmia and tachycardia (these conditions are frequent companions of obesity).

Losing weight through jaundice is a fairly simple process, the main thing is to be patient and strictly follow the doctor's instructions.

When losing weight, the intake of 0.1 g of dried jaundice powder is indicated. The indicated dose of the powder is taken daily, three times a day, 20 minutes after eating (the powder is placed on the tongue, moistened with saliva and swallowed). You can drink the powder with a small sip of water. Thanks to such a simple recipe, you can lose up to 4 kg per month, but subject to the exact dosage: for example, the daily dose of jaundice powder should not exceed 0.3 g.

The duration of taking jaundice for weight loss is two months, after which a break is made for 15 days, during which it is recommended to exclude fatty and fried foods, as well as alcohol, from the diet. After 15 days, the process of losing weight can be resumed. In order to prevent weight gain, jaundice can be taken for a long time. The preventive dose is 0.1 g per day (you can take it at the indicated dosage every other day, which will prevent not only obesity, but also cardiovascular diseases). 80 g of dry crushed raw materials (jaundice herb) are poured into 500 ml of vodka and infused for two weeks, shaking regularly. Tincture is taken daily half an hour before meals, three times a day, 20 drops, which are diluted in 200 ml of raw, but filtered water. The duration of treatment is 3 months, after which a break is made for one month (if necessary, the course can be repeated). It is indicated for arrhythmia, dropsy of renal or cardiac origin, heart attack, angina pectoris.

Ingredients:

  • sour cream - 1 tsp;
  • sugar - 1 cup;
  • cooled boiled water - 3 l;
  • jaundice herb - 50 g.

Important! When pouring 150 ml of kvass from a container, it is necessary to add 150 ml of water and 1 tsp to it. Sahara.

Simultaneously with Bolotov's kvass, it is recommended to take 0.1 g of jaundice powder daily in an amount of 0.1 g. This will stimulate the pancreas to produce insulin, which, breaking down both sugars and fats, will provide the heart with nutrition.

30 g of dry raw materials are poured into a glass of 40% alcohol, infused for 21 days, periodically shaking. Tincture is taken 10 drops three times a day, 15 minutes before meals, mixed with one tablespoon of water.

The medicinal properties of jaundice have been known for a long time. It is used as an expectorant and diuretic, as well as a very effective heart and sedative. Jaundice is part of such a heart remedy as cardiovalen, due to its ability to calm the heartbeat, equalize the pulse and improve cardiac activity. These properties make it indispensable in the treatment of angina, rheumatic heart disease, hypertension.

Jaundice herb is used as a medicinal raw material, the highly active form of which has been introduced into the culture. The grass is mowed during the flowering period and, having dried in small stacks in the field, is subjected to final drying in dryers, after which it is stored in dry rooms with good ventilation. You need to know that after six months of storage, the healing properties of jaundice weaken, and after a year they are completely lost.

Jaundice - contraindications

Jaundice preparations should not be used during pregnancy, atherosclerosis, cardiosclerosis, endocarditis, acute myocarditis, organic changes in blood vessels and the heart. Taking them orally, you must strictly observe the dosage, since jaundice has not only medicinal, but also poisonous properties. Before taking jaundice preparations, you should always consult with your doctor.

Walking through a field or forest edge, we usually look at the surrounding flora with interest. In the process of such contemplation, the usual logic turns on: "this plant is useful, but that one is a weed." The latter often include mass, but not too familiar species, among which, in fact, there are truly healing ones. One such herb is jaundice, which deserves a closer look.

plant description

Jaundice is the name of a genus of herbaceous plants from the Cabbage family, growing almost everywhere. It includes 261 species of one- or two-year-old herbs with whole narrow leaves and small yellow (rarely red) flowers.

In our latitudes, you can meet representatives of 70 species, but most often come across gray and left-handed.

A two-year-old gray (aka spreading) jaundice puts out a basal leaf rosette in the first season. In the second year, several green-gray stems with small branches break through. During this period, the height reaches 30-90 cm. The leaves, oblong and rough to the touch, grow in the next order.

Important! Many types of jaundice are very similar to gray and levkoy, so that only an experienced herbalist can distinguish between them. If there are no such skills, it is better to refrain from self-collection.

Flowering occurs in May-June, when small yellow-lemon flowers with four petals are visible on the carpal inflorescences. After flowering, fruiting occurs: tetrahedral pods (up to 7 cm each) with achenes appear. In early autumn, the pod bursts and the seeds fly out.

The levkoin species with an annual life cycle is large - the stems can grow up to 1.2 m in height. The leaves are oblong (3-6 cm) and narrow (4-5 mm), with pointed edges.

From May to September, bright yellow flowers with 4 lobes appear on oblique pedicels. The fruiting pattern is the same, but the pods are larger (maximum 8.5 cm).
More common is levkoy jaundice - in a temperate climate, it grows on the edges, along dwellings and roads, near water bodies and in fields. The gray line has approximately the same range.

In agriculture, jaundice is considered a weed, but the two species are often used as medicinal plants. Working with them requires a fair amount of caution: the grass is poisonous.

blank

For medicinal purposes, all ground parts of the plant are used, but flowers are considered the most effective, stems are slightly less effective. For harvesting, only left-handed and gray varieties of herbs are taken.

Did you know? Jaundice, core, heart grass - all these are popular names for jaundice.

The best time to collect is May-July(in regions with a more severe climate, it is quite possible to hold it in early July). It is important to catch the moment when the flowers have barely begun to bloom (during the maximum flowering, some of the useful properties are lost). That is, the most useful part of the jaundice is collected only once a year.
The collection and processing algorithm itself looks like this:

  1. Work is carried out on a fine sunny day. After making sure that the dew has gone, put on gloves and take a knife or sharp scissors.
  2. The ground part is cut off 10-15 cm from the ground (the lower processes are left in place).
  3. The resulting collection is immediately sorted out, removing darkened or broken fragments.
  4. Plants are finely chopped and immediately placed in the attic (a slightly shaded place on the street on a hot day is also suitable). In this case, the grass is laid in one layer, on pre-spread thick paper or cardboard.
  5. For uniform drying, all stocks are stirred every day or two. It is necessary to maintain a fairly high temperature (40-45 ° C).
  6. After 7-10 days, the workpiece will reach the desired condition. Readiness is determined very simply: if you take and strongly squeeze the “cut” in the palm of your hand, it will easily crumble with a distinctly audible crunch.

Important! For medicinal purposes, herbs collected away from busy roads or polluted reservoirs are best suited. The optimal location is the edge of a remote forest area or a field that has not previously been “overfed” with pesticides.

Then it remains to place the material in closed paper bags or cardboard boxes. They should be stored in a dark, dry and ventilated place. Under such conditions, the collection will retain its valuable qualities throughout the year.

Compound

Green mass and jaundice seeds contain many useful compounds. The main ones are:

  • glycosides of the cardiac group - ericordin, erizimin and about two dozen other substances similar to them (most of them are in the flower and seeds (up to 6% of the total weight), while in the leaves it is already four times less - 1.5%; in the stems the share is reduced to 0.5-0.7%);
  • flavonoids (scolimosin, rutide, etc.);
  • tannins;
  • glucose;
  • bitterness;
  • organic acids - citric, malic and ascorbic;
  • essential oil present in the seeds (1%);
  • they also contain about 27-42% of fatty oils, in the structure of which linolenic and erucic, oleic and palmitic acids necessary for the body are indicated.
The ground part is saturated with various minerals in the form of:
  • calcium;
  • potassium;
  • manganese;
  • gland;
  • zinc;
  • copper;
  • chromium;
  • Selene.

Did you know? Ravenala (a species related to bananas) is considered the tallest grass in the world. 10-15 m in height is the norm for these plants.

As you can see, the grass, taken by many for a weed, is rich in useful substances. Thanks to this, jaundice exhibits enviable healing qualities.

Beneficial features

In folk medicine and "official" pharmacology, the plant is valued for a whole range of medicinal properties, namely:

  1. Anti-inflammatory action. Biologically active components of jaundice, penetrating into the cell layer, affect inflammation, neutralizing its focus.
  2. Antiseptic effect (strengthens cell membranes, thereby protecting them from the action of viruses and bacteria).
  3. Acceleration of wound healing, including deep ones, as well as with background processes of decay. The skin recovers faster (this is the merit of flavonoids), while the deep tissues of the dermis are being healed.
  4. Help in strengthening the bone apparatus and ligaments.
  5. Normalization of the heart (myocardial support, regulation of the ventricles, a decrease in atrioventricular conduction).
  6. The ability to eliminate the symptoms of arrhythmia and tachycardia.
  7. Purification of blood vessels, which helps to prevent the occurrence of thrombosis and cardiovascular insufficiency II-III degrees (both in acute and chronic forms).
  8. Mild but effective regulation of blood pressure. The same applies to blood sugar levels.
  9. Urine and choleretic effect. Flavonoids and natural lipids, after passing through the liver, relieve swelling.
  10. Calming effect. When used, the nervous system is unloaded - chronic fatigue syndrome disappears, the effects of stress are smoothed out. In addition, normal sleep returns.
  11. Jaundice is also known as a strong expectorant used to treat respiratory diseases that occur against the background of abundant mucus secretion.
  12. Those who suffer from attacks of shortness of breath or severe headaches will also appreciate the strength of this plant.

Important! In the case of atherosclerosis, jaundice can be used strictly for prevention (and then only with the approval of a doctor), but not as a medicinal material.

The list is impressive, and after reading its points, many are interested in how to realize this potential by resorting to simple means based on jaundice.

Let's start with vodka tincture. It helps in the treatment of bronchial asthma and rheumatism. But the main specialization is the removal of symptoms of diseases of the heart and blood vessels: angina pectoris, ischemia, thrombophlebitis and varicose veins. This also includes arrhythmia and hypertension.

Such extensive use is due to the action of numerous glycosides that work mainly with the heart and circulatory system. These substances somewhat slow down the heart rate, reduce pressure, increase the volume of coronary blood flow. Alcohol in this case only enhances the circulation of such useful elements.
The most versatile recipe looks like this:

  1. First, 6 tbsp. l. dry fine raw materials are poured 0.5 liters of vodka.
  2. Then the container under the lid is infused for 2 weeks, not forgetting to shake it periodically.
  3. Reception is reduced to the use of 20-30 drops, diluted in 200 ml of pure water. Drink it three times a day, half an hour before meals.

With such a development of events, these blanks normalize blood pressure, slow down the heartbeat to acceptable levels and maintain the tone of the heart muscle.

As an external composition, a decoction is used to work with problem areas of the skin, ulcers or wounds, and even with breast cancer.
An effective mixture is prepared as follows:

  1. One teaspoon of chopped stem (and preferably leaves) pour 300 g of boiling water.
  2. After that, the liquid is kept in a water bath for 10 minutes.
  3. The composition removed from the fire is filtered, and instead of the descended water, boiled water is added (to the original composition).
Dose for internal single reception - 1 tbsp. l. 3-4 approaches per day. When used externally, it is used as a base for compresses or rubbing.
