What is the use of red viburnum? Contraindications

The viburnum has surprisingly useful properties. It contains many substances in which our body is constantly in need. And the most effective these substances are able to show when using fresh berries. Although no less effective and dried, parsed viburnum. Contraindications to the use of this plant is, they do not need to be forgotten.

At the first sign of a cold, hot tea with kalina is one of the most effective means of preventing a serious illness. Strengthening immunity is only one of the many merits of the red berry. Kalinovy mors good cope with gastritis (with reduced acidity), stomach ulcers, many ailments accompanied by internal bleeding. Sometimes there are cases when drugs can not be taken, then the patient will surely be treated with Kalina. Contraindications will be considered further. In addition to the wound healing properties, the fruits of the Kalina have anti-inflammatory, choleretic, diuretic, sedative and other qualities.

How to cure Kalina

Freshly squeezed juice slightly bitter. It is a diabetic product. But if the patient is all right with the production of insulin, then can be sweetened with soy or fruit juice, for example, honey. The spectrum of its use is quite wide: from the treatment of colitis and internal bleeding to improving the work of the heart, overcoming liver diseases, rheumatism and much more. Berries of the viburnum are cooked in honey, from them are prepared tinctures, decoctions. And to restore health use not only the berries themselves or their juice. As an antiseptic, analgesic and hemostatic agent use a decoction and infusion of bark of Kalina. Antipyretic and anti-allergic action is also the infusion of plant flowers. A decoction of bones can act as an astringent, diaphoretic and sedative.

Benefit and harm of the viburnum

The use of viburnum is proved by the long-term period of its successful application. Berry helps with pneumonia, asthma, colds. Improves the condition of blood vessels and heart, lowers the level of "harmful" cholesterol in the blood, stops bleeding and heals wounds. Promotes a significant improvement in the situation with many gynecological diseases. However, in all cases, the use of Kalina is justified, useful, and most importantly - safe? It turns out, not always. Despite the fact that it has a lot of useful qualities of viburnum, contraindications are a factor that slightly detracts from its positive properties. As a rule, when describing a berry, the most intimate (and quite deserved) attention is paid to its useful properties. But I would like to make a separate emphasis on the need to always consider the possible effects of the means. Let's consider, in what cases is not so useful a viburnum.

Contraindications

It is strongly recommended to abstain from eating a plant with an elevated blood platelet count, low blood pressure, kidney disease and pregnancy. In the latter case, because of the property to raise the tone of the uterus is not so useful as a viburnum. Contraindications here are obvious. Gastritis with high acidity is quite an excuse for not using berries. Gout, arthritis, urolithiasis are not treated with the help of viburnum, although it is still acceptable to use it in limited amounts in food. Of course, not on a permanent basis, but only for a short time. The same goes for pregnancy. But I would like to talk more about this.

Viburnum in pregnancy

Contraindications to the use of berries, of course, worry women in an "interesting situation". Due to insufficiently strengthened immune system (especially in modern urban conditions), the health of many women during pregnancy is subject to additional risks. Sometimes the body simply starts to fail, and this is already unacceptable at such a crucial moment. At the same time, everyone understands that the drug approach is not the best strategy for complete confidence in the normal development of the fetus. Here in the course are all sorts of folk remedies: decoctions, infusions from various herbs, berries and other plants. How can you not remember that viburnum increases hemoglobin! Well, yes, it raises, because the iron in it is many times greater than in many other fruits. But the viburnum has a side effect, the beneficial effect of which the woman will be able to appreciate, drinking a Kalinacea mors immediately before childbirth. And before this a handful of fresh bilberry berries, maybe sometimes it does not hurt, but no more. It is better to eat fresh apples.
