I want to share with you a recipe, which relieves joints’ pain. This recipe I discovered a few years ago in a magazine and because my knees hurt very much due to weather change and sometimes without a reason too. I decided to try it. For one month every evening I was stinging my legs with nettle – and in one month the pain disappeared. A year and a half passed since, that this problem has not reminded of itself.
Nettle’s stinging poison is a strong medicine!
- Leaf’s infusion
For 20 gr of dry or 300 gr of fresh nettle’s leaves take 250 ml of boiling water. Add water to nettle’s leaves, bring to a boil, cover with a lid and boil for about 2 3 minutes. Set aside for a while, then strain. When boiling nettle, you should know a few tricks, in order not to destroy the vitamins contained in it. If whole leaves are taken, for 1 person you should take 4 leaves, pour one glass of water, cover the pot with a lid, bring to a boil on low fire, then immediately turn off the fire. Wait until the decoction evaporates (about 30 minutes) and immediately drink it 10 15 minutes before eating in 3 divided doses. Drink this decoction in the morning and in the evening. It is recommended to eat the leaves too. - Nettle’s seed’s decoction
Starting from August nettle’s seeds ripen. Its seeds are very small (about 1 mm), yellowish or gray, elongated rounded. Nettle’s seeds contain vitamin C and fatty oil, which contains linoleic acid. It is used during nephrolithiasis, dysentery and as an anthelmintic remedy. - Roots’ and leaves’ decoction
The glycoside urticin contained in nettle’s composition is an excellent natural cardio stimulator. It is used during indigestion, diarrhea, hemoptysis, nose’s bleeding, with long and heavy menstruation, uremia, hemorrhoids, as a diuretic, with rheumatism, with a rash on the skin, with diabetes, with nervous attacks (epilepsy, hysteria), also during chronic bronchitis and other diseases of the respiratory organs, with jaundice and liver diseases, with skin diseases, which is accompanied by itching and as a means of increasing lactation.
From nettle’s leaves a tincture is prepared:
For this you should use vodka. To prepare such a medicine you should use the plant’s leaves. One part of raw material is three parts of vodka. You should set such a remedy for at least 10 days. The container with the tincture should be stored in a dark, cool place. The container itself should be glass. A cabinet or refrigerator is suitable for storing the tincture. After preparing this remedy the liquid must be carefully filtered.
The leaves contain many vitamins, they are a kind of natural multivitamin concentrate:
