Dried chanterelles from parasites
Chanterelles are a type of mushroom with good taste and a wide range of useful properties. The main advantage of this variety is its strong effect on parasitic organisms. Dried chanterelles from parasites (worms, or more scientifically - helminths) are used at all stages of the development of the disease: both in the larval phase and to eliminate adults.
Collecting chanterelles
In order for dried chanterelle mushrooms to effectively help against worms and other parasites, you need to choose them correctly when collecting.
This species gives the best harvest in mid-summer and early autumn. It is better to look for them in coniferous forests, as well as in mixed and birch forests. Common chanterelle, or real, is a mycorrhizal fungus, which enters into a symbiotic relationship most often from conifers with spruce and pine, and from deciduous ones - beech and oak.
Habitats of the species:
- in wet moss;
- under the foliage;
- under the branches;
- in the tall and dense grass.
The chanterelle can be slowly and carefully twisted out of the soil by holding the base of the leg or cut with a knife.
Drying
Drying chanterelles is one of the best ways to harvest them. At the same time, the mushroom does not lose its beneficial properties and is a low-calorie product. It is contraindicated to consume them raw: they aggressively affect the gastrointestinal tract.
Also, when using this type for the treatment of worms and parasites, it is forbidden to cook or fry the product. After heating above + 50 ° С, all useful properties of the mushroom disappear, i.e. there is a destruction of active substances that can have a detrimental effect on helminths.
For the preparation of dried chanterelles use:
- the sun;
- oven;
- airfryer;
- electric dryer;
- Russian stove;
- microwave.
It is forbidden to wash or soak mushrooms before drying. The product will absorb a lot of moisture, making it impossible to cook properly.
It is better to dry at a temperature of + 40 ... + 45 ° С in several passes. The mushrooms are peeled and cut into small plates. They are laid out on the surface in 1 layer and dried for several hours, then cooled and the procedure is repeated. Chanterelles are ready if they bend a little, but they do not release moisture and do not crumble. After drying, a powder is prepared from them, which is taken as a medicine.
The impact of chanterelles on parasites
The mushroom contains a powerful monosaccharide with an anthelmintic effect. It is analogous to synthetic pharmaceutical preparations and does not have a negative effect on the human body. Proof of effectiveness is that the chanterelle mushroom is not wormy: the chinomannosis present in its body causes disruption of the parasite's nervous system, it stops breathing and dies.
The fungus has a similar effect on foreign species (parasites) in the human body. Quinomannosis also affects the eggs of worms and other parasites.
Irina Selyutina (Biologist):
Indeed, the polysaccharide of quinomannose, or chitinmannose, when it enters the body of the parasite, practically paralyzes it, because there is a blockage of nerve endings and nerve ganglia (nodes). As a result, the parasitic organism dies due to the inability to move and absorb nutrients. However, chitin mannose is an unstable compound that can be destroyed both under the influence of temperatures above + 50 ℃ and salt. But the natural origin of the compound is already a huge plus, because quinomannose does not cause side effects in comparison with synthetic drugs, which have a detrimental effect not only on helminths, but also on the host's (human) organism. Now, on the basis of chinomannose, effective drugs have been created to combat helminths.
Chanterelles have a positive effect on the immune system, due to the large amount of beta-glucans and polysaccharides in their composition. This substance stimulates the production of white blood cells, which creates resistance to the development of parasites and viruses.
Chanterelle treatment
Before taking chanterelles as a medicine, they need to be dried and ground into powder. A coffee grinder, spice grinder or hand mortar is suitable for this. The powder has good antibacterial properties and is effective against parasites. The product is easier to store this way. Also, on its basis, tinctures are prepared against worms.
Chanterelles can simply be dried, chopped and taken in 1 tsp. every day for 2 months. A decoction is also prepared from the powder. The course of treatment lasts 3 weeks.
Chanterelle decoction:
- bring water to a boil, then let it cool to room temperature;
- pour into a glass with 50 g of powder;
- insist 1.5-2 hours;
- drink a liquid before going to bed with the sediment (after mixing).
Herbs are additionally added to the broth:
- sagebrush;
- chamomile;
- oak bark;
- sage;
- birch leaves;
- calendula;
- yarrow;
- peppermint;
- tansy;
- sumac.
These medicinal herbs enhance the healing effect of the decoction. They also have a positive effect on the work of internal organs, as a result, the treatment becomes more effective.
Chanterelle tincture:
- pour 50 g of powder with 200 ml of vodka or alcohol;
- stir and refrigerate;
- insist 2 weeks, stirring occasionally;
- use at bedtime without filtering for 3 weeks.
Attention! To prepare the tincture, you need to take only high-quality vodka without additional additives.
This medicine effectively eliminates roundworms, whipworms and pinworms, as well as their eggs. A contraindication is the use of alcohol during the course of treatment.
Medicines
Pharmacies sell products that are made on the basis of chanterelle powder. They are made as a highly concentrated extract. The medicine is 15 times stronger than the home remedy.
There is also a medicine called Fungo Shi. The capsules contain dried chanterelle powder extract. They are taken 2 pieces per day.
Conclusion
Chanterelles have many beneficial properties. They strengthen the immune system, prevent the appearance of varicose veins, and improve the quality of the skin. They are also an antibacterial product.
Additionally, mushrooms improve vision and prevent corneal inflammation. They are also added to soups, sauces and side dishes as a condiment.
