Hemlock cancer treatment according to the Tishchenko method
Spotted hemlock - where does it grow and what does it look like?
The full name of this plant - spotted hemlock - was obtained by him because of the characteristic reddish-brown spots that cover the hollow stem, reaching 1.8 m in height. Hemlock belongs to the umbrella family, it is a two-year-old tall grass with triangular leaves, like parsley, and small white flowers, in place of which tiny, rounded seeds ripen. They spill out from their umbrellas onto the ground, and ensure stable reproduction of hemlock throughout the entire range. And this plant is found almost everywhere: from Africa and Asia to Northern Europe, moreover, the southern hemlock varieties contain more biologically active substances than their northern counterparts.
A young hemlock can be mistaken for parsley by negligence and poisoning. All parts of the plant are poisonous: leaves, roots, flowers and seeds. The tall flowering bush of the hemlock in appearance strongly resembles the forest bush, with which inexperienced herbalists in the European part of Russia confuse it. Kupyr is harmless, but also useless, therefore, before deciding to harvest a hemlock for therapeutic purposes, you need to get to know its photos properly, or enlist the support of an experienced naturopathic pharmacist.

What does hemlock look like?
Attention: hemlock is poisonous, so wash your hands thoroughly after working with hemlock. Follow dosages strictly! Keep the hemlock medicine out of the reach of children.
From the history of the use of hemlock
The Latin name of this herb sounds like "Conium maculatum", and in translation the word "conium" means "killing". Indeed, in the days of Ancient Greece, hemlock played the role of the official "executioner". Plant sap poisoned people condemned to death. Some historians believe that it was with the help of a hemlock that the famous philosophers of antiquity Socrates and Phocion were killed.
Another ancient sage, Hippocrates, first drew an interested look at hemlock as a medicinal plant. He suggested that in miniscule doses, the juice of this poisonous bush could be of medical benefit. Later, Avicenna and Dioscorides, healers who actively used hemlock in practice, agreed with Hippocrates. Avicenna repeatedly mentions the hemlock in all three books of his medical work "The Canon of Medicine".
In Russia, hemlock was well known to folk healers. The book "Izbornik Svyatoslav Yaroslavich", published in 1074, describes recipes for the treatment of benign and malignant tumors, as well as venereal diseases with the help of decoctions and infusions of hemlock.
Modern medicine has not written off hemlock, even on the contrary - now scientific research is underway aimed at developing anti-cancer drugs based on the extract of this poisonous plant. At the moment, in six developed European countries (Spain, Portugal, Austria, Germany, Bulgaria and France) and in three Latin American countries (Chile, Mexico and Venezuela) hemlock is included in the official pharmacopoeia.
In Russia, this plant does not have a state medical status now, but it is actively used by homeopathic doctors and traditional healers. And from 1866 to 1902, hemlock was included in the official Russian pharmacopoeia as an anesthetic and antispasmodic.
Since the hemlock contains tannins, it can theoretically be used for leather harvesting, but the plant's toxicity is an obstacle to its widespread use. Hemlock flowers are a good honey plant, but for the same reason, honey produced by bees as a result of such pollination is unsuitable for food. Hemlock juice can be used as a natural, effective insecticide, but the fruit must be washed very thoroughly after this treatment.
Hemlock chemical composition
The plant contains the following biologically active components:
- Alkaloids (coniine, conicein, conhydrin, pseudoconhydrin, methylconiine);
- Glycerides of petroselidic and petroselinic acids;
- Caffeic acid;
- Horsey essential oil;
- Kaempferol and quercetin (PP vitamin).
The most poisonous component of hemlock is the alkaloid konyin. Most of it is contained in plant seeds (about 2%), less in flowers (0.24%), even less in leaves, stems and roots (0.1%). The toxicity of the leaves is not the same throughout the life of the plant: they have more alkaloids before flowering, and then the poisons partially migrate to the seeds.
Pharmacological action of hemlock
Hemlock removes pain, has anticonvulsant, anti-inflammatory, sedative and antitumor effects. Since ancient times, hemlock has been considered the most valuable medicinal plant in folk medicine.
Hemlock extract has the following effects on the human body:
- Antineoplastic;
- Wound healing;
- Sedative;
- Anticonvulsant;
- Spasmolytic;
- Immunostimulating;
- Antiseptic;
- Hypotensive;
- Diuretic.
Therefore, hemlock is used to treat a variety of diseases:
- Oncological tumors (cancer of the mammary glands, stomach, duodenum, thyroid and prostate glands, lungs, brain);
- Benign neoplasms (prostate adenoma, uterine fibroids, endometriosis, polyps, cystic and polycystic, fibroids and mastopathy);
- Vascular diseases (hemorrhoids, varicose veins, thrombophlebitis, atherosclerosis, hypertension);
- Autoimmune diseases (systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis);
- Diseases of bones and joints (osteochondrosis, gout, rheumatism, polyarthritis, arthritis and arthrosis);
- Chronic infectious diseases (syphilis, tuberculosis);
- As an analgesic and antispasmodic agent - for migraines, chorea, epilepsy, whooping cough.
Collection and processing of hemlock
Leaves, flowers and seeds are collected from hemlock spotted. The collection of raw materials falls at the beginning of June and until September; much also depends on the region and growing conditions of the plant. If the flowering time has passed, then you can use seeds and, since the plant is two years old, then in the fall and early spring you can use the root leaves. But the highest quality raw materials are ripe, but not overripe inflorescences: there is almost no essential oil in them.
You can protect your hands with gloves, but just wash them thoroughly after collecting and handling the hemlock.
You should not take your children with you and let them pick the flowers of a poisonous plant. Even if a child simply licks fingers soiled with hemlock juice, this can cause mild poisoning.
It is best to chop off the umbrellas right away and fill it with medical alcohol (40-70%) or vodka, because the horse's essential oil is volatile, so hemlock quickly loses its healing properties in the air. Take with you a glass container already filled with alcohol or vodka so that you can put chopped hemlock there right at the collection point. Cutting the inflorescences is most convenient with clean, sharp tailor's scissors.
What to do if hemlock has faded?
The question may arise: what if the hemlock has finished blooming, do you really have to wait for the next season? Of course not, as hemlock throws out small leaves at any time, which are located near the roots. These are good raw materials, and then the seeds will go. The main rule is to take only green, fresh and fleshy parts of the plant that contain juice, since withered and dried leaves contain almost no valuable alkaloids.
Hemlock tincture recipe
There are several recipes for creating a cancer remedy with a hemlock. The easiest, safest and at the same time most effective technique will be described here.
To make the tincture correct, you need to adhere to the proportions:
- Two parts of inflorescences and hemlock seeds;
- One part of rubbing alcohol or vodka.
Therefore, going to the place of collection of the plant, take with you a liter jar with a tightly screwed metal lid, and pre-pour one glass (250 ml) of vodka or alcohol there. This is necessary so that the hemlock does not lose its medicinal properties after cutting, since after grinding the collected hemlock begins to warm up strongly and loses its properties. You just have to collect 2 glasses of raw materials (not tamped), cut it with scissors, put the hemlock into this jar, close the lid and shake well.
You cannot grind raw materials with a meat grinder, since a very large amount of chlorophyll is released, which does not change the quality of raw materials for the better. We need to get a pure semi-alcoholic extract, which is achieved by the above method.
Some sources suggest taking 1 glass, 100 g and even 50 g of grass per 0.5 liters of vodka, but this is wrong - the concentration of such a tincture will be weak.
When you come home, hide the jar out of the reach of children, in a dark and cool place. Insist on the medicine for at least three weeks (21 days), but it is better to wait 40 days. In case of emergency, you can start taking it on the third day. The jar needs to be shaken daily, it is better to do this 2-3 times a day. Do not open the lid under any circumstances, since medicinal alkaloids are volatile. Long-term experience of healers shows that hemlock tincture is best prepared in a cool place - at a temperature of 15-20 ° C Celsius, alkaloids most effectively pass into an alcoholic environment.
The finished tincture must be thoroughly filtered through several layers of sterile gauze, again poured into a clean glass jar with a tightly screwed lid and put into the refrigerator. Make a warning sticker to prevent your family members (especially children) from inadvertently drinking from this jar!
How to determine a quality tincture?
Hemlock tincture is a popular pharmacological agent that is sold ready-made. There are small companies and private herbal therapists involved in the production and sale of tinctures, so the question arises: can you trust them? Is it worth saving your time and refusing to make your own medicine, and will such savings turn into a purchase of a fake?
The manufacture of counterfeit tincture does not make much economic sense, since hemlock is found everywhere, and the procurement of raw materials does not cause any difficulties. However, the quality and concentration of the tincture can be questionable. A good product will have a rich blue-violet color and a characteristic "mouse" smell - this is how the essential horse oil smells, the main medicinal component of the tincture.
How to take hemlock tincture? "Tsar's scheme"
There are several methods of treatment with hemlock tincture, but in practice, the so-called "royal" technique has proven itself best. It is used for any tumors, both malignant and benign, as well as for protracted chronic diseases: tuberculosis, atherosclerosis, thrombophlebitis, lupus erythematosus and many others.
Reception scheme: in the morning before meals, drink one drop of the infusion, diluting it in a glass of water. On the second day, you already drink 2 drops. On the third - 3 drops, and so, gradually increasing the dose, it is necessary to reach 40 drops (if the body is already strongly weakened, then use a lower dose, which will act softer).
Then you should go in the opposite direction, reducing the daily dose by one drop, and reach one drop, this is one circle. A patient can undergo three full courses in a year, and usually this is enough to heal even the most serious illness. There have been registered cases of victory over cancer with the help of hemlock tincture, however, we will not argue that successful treatment consisted only in taking the tincture.
Note that in 30% of cases, hemlock tincture does not affect the body. In this case, herbalists usually change the hemlock for some other plant, for example, for Dzhungarian aconite.
The subtleties of treatment with hemlock tincture
It is best to take this medicine in the morning, on an empty stomach, 20-30 minutes before breakfast, dissolving the tincture in a small amount of pure water - a quarter of a glass is enough. After taking some of the medicine, first rinse your mouth and hold the liquid for a while, and only then swallow, since the sublingual method of taking hemlock tincture is more effective than oral.
Weakened and elderly patients are advised to begin treatment with a hemlock with a shortened course - 20 days, so that the body gradually gets used to poisonous alkaloids. However, even young patients may experience side effects - nausea, bitterness in the mouth, indigestion, skin rash. If this happens, you need to start a reverse dose reduction, while it does not matter at what stage of treatment the patient is.
How does hemlock tincture work?
Why do poisonous plants help a person cope with diseases, although, logically, they should only do harm? The principle of homeopathy is at work here: like cures like. Our body perceives konyin and other poisonous alkaloids as foreign substances, similar to pathogens and tumor cells. Trying to get rid of the poison, human immunity simultaneously gets rid of the disease.
We are quite able to adapt to a small dose of toxic substances over time, but our disease is not, since it is not a person, and has no immunity. Those antibodies that fill a person's blood in response to the presence of poison successfully cope with an external threat - an infection, a tumor, or even with their own immune cells, which behave inappropriately, as is the case with autoimmune diseases.
Alternative dosage forms
For skin problems (ulcers, growths, erysipelas, eczema, skin cancer), as well as for joint pain and external tumors, it is recommended to combine the intake of alcoholic tincture of hemlock inside with the use of medicated oil.
Hemlock Oil Recipe:
- Olive or sunflower oil - 500 ml;
- Crushed inflorescences and hemlock seeds - 2 cups.
You need to prepare the oil in a glass jar with a tightly screwed lid, and keep in a dark, cool place for 21 days, just like the tincture. Then strain and store in the refrigerator or somewhere on a high shelf, out of the reach of children, since hemlock oil does not deteriorate at room temperature.
It is recommended to lubricate the affected skin with oil twice a day, and if the joint hurts, then a sterile bandage soaked in oil is applied, covered with cellophane on top and wrapped in a warm scarf. So you can significantly improve the well-being of a patient with radiculitis, osteochondrosis or gout, but remember that warming compresses are contraindicated at high temperatures and inflammatory processes in the joints!
Lotions with hemlock oil are applied for 2-3 hours on ulcers and poorly healing wounds. Such oil also helps with varicose veins - sore areas need to be lubricated daily at night. With hemorrhoids, sterile tampons moistened with hemorrhoids oil can be inserted into the anus before bedtime - this relieves pain well, reduces inflammation and bleeding.
Contraindications to hemlock treatment
Individual intolerance to hemlock and allergic reactions to it are extremely rare. However, in some cases, it is better to refuse treatment with a hemlock, so that harm from poisonous alkaloids does not aggravate the situation. It is generally necessary to take such medications only when the risk is justified, and there is simply no other, safer way to cure.
Hemlock tincture should not be taken:
- Very old, weak, emaciated patients;
- Small children and expectant mothers;
- Patients who have just undergone surgery;
- People with congenital dysfunction or severe liver disease.
It is necessary to say separately about the liver - it is this organ that is responsible for cleansing the blood of poisons, therefore, hepatitis, cirrhosis and chronic alcoholism deprive a person of a chance for hemlock treatment. As for cancer patients who have had a tumor removed, then 2 months after the operation, provided they feel normal, they even need to start taking hemlock tincture in order to prevent the occurrence of relapses and new metastases.
It is known that hemlock does not have a pronounced therapeutic effect on some people (there are only about 30% of them). It's just that, for some reason, alkaloids do not stimulate the production of life-giving antibodies. Such patients can be recommended other tinctures on poisonous plants - celandine, aconite. Perhaps some other alkaloid will trigger the desired reaction.
What to do in case of hemlock poisoning?
For poisoning to occur, a person needs to inadvertently eat a small bunch of grass, for example, confusing hemlock grown in the garden with parsley. Animals require large doses - for example, a horse or cow grazing in a meadow will be poisoned by a hemlock only if they eat 2 or more kilograms of grass.
Signs of hemlock poisoning
In case of serious hemlock poisoning, signs of ascending paralysis appear. The limbs become heavy, coldness is felt all over the body, goosebumps appear, the face is pale, it is difficult to swallow, there is dizziness, dilated pupils, fluctuations and blurred objects in front of the eyes. There is a burning sensation in the throat, nausea and vomiting are felt. Respiratory paralysis is possible.
In addition, a person who has poisoned with a hemlock has the following primary symptoms:
- Nervous excitement;
- High blood pressure;
- Nausea;
- Dilated pupils;
- Pallor and cyanosis of the skin and lips;
- Tachycardia;
- Copious secretion of saliva;
- Hand tremor;
- Swallowing and speech disorders.
The alkaloid konyin acts on the body like acetylcholine, nicotine and curare poison. First, there is an activation, and then a sharp depression of the central nervous system. If the dose of hemlock was large (20 g or more), the person's condition will begin to deteriorate very quickly.
Hemlock is most often poisoned due to the fact that it is very similar to other plants. In the first year of life, hemlock is difficult to distinguish from parsley. The root of the plant is in the form of a carrot. In the second year of life, it looks like dill, carrot.
At the final stage of severe hemlock poisoning, the following signs are observed:
- Seizures;
- Loss of skin sensitivity;
- Ascending paralysis;
- Choking and respiratory arrest.
Emergency poisoning
The remedy for hemlock poisoning has been known for a long time, it is also the most effective antidote.
To prepare it, take warm water and add a significant amount of wood oil (this is the lowest grade of olive oil). If not, add linseed or hemp oil. The poisoned person is given a funnel to the throat and this mixture is poured directly into the stomach until he vomits. And so it is necessary to repeat until he regains consciousness. Then you should give him a drink of warm water mixed with honey, after which relief will come.
Give artificial respiration if necessary. Inside, you can also take 30 tablets of activated carbon. Fresh air recommended.
Failure to provide medical assistance to the victim in time can result in death. In case of poisoning with a small amount of hemlock, it is enough to give the person a drink of half a liter of warm milk with the addition of potassium permanganate (color the milk to a pale pink color), ensure peace and bed rest. And if the dose of a poisonous plant was dangerous, immediate hospitalization and gastric lavage are required.
The effectiveness of hemlock cancer treatment
Hemlock is of the greatest interest to cancer patients, since in the treatment of such serious diseases it is advisable to consider all possible means, including homeopathic, folk and alternative ones. I would like to warn everyone who hopes to save themselves from cancer or cure their loved ones with the help of hemlock tincture: this is not a magic potion, and not a panacea for all ills.
The effectiveness of hemlock tincture and other similar drugs is based on the body's natural defenses. In other words, as far as a person is able to cure himself, the hemlock tincture will help him. If the immune system does not give an adequate, pronounced response to the attack with poisonous alkaloids, then it will not help to get rid of the tumor.
Hemlock cancer treatment is quite effective … but not a panacea! Hemlock is a powerful pain reliever. Despite the fact that hemlock is poisonous, in moderate doses it is easily tolerated by any organism. He does not touch living cells, the adaptation passes quickly. But it has a very detrimental effect on diseased cancer cells. For this reason, he gained great fame.
The second point to remember is that in order to succeed in the fight against cancer, you need to approach treatment in a comprehensive manner. This means that you cannot just give up on the recommendations of an oncologist and fall into traditional medicine. One does not exclude the other, and in war all means are good, so take the doctor's prescriptions and the advice of a phytotherapist equally seriously and responsibly.
There are many other medicinal plants, not only poisonous, which, when used in combination, can help fight cancer. Taking a tincture of hemlock alone will likely not be successful. But if, in between courses, you switch to other drugs of this series, for example, to tincture of Dzungarian aconite or celandine, the probability of a successful outcome will be higher.
Regarding the very idea of treatment with poisonous herbs, many cancer patients are perplexed by this prospect. They ask, why poison the body with poison when it is already weakened by a tumor? Let me ask you a counter question: isn't the chemotherapy prescribed for you by your official oncologist, in fact, a poisoning? In this case, with the help of poisons, doctors try to destroy the malignant cells, but at the same time they poison the patient himself. And homeopathy acts much more humanely - it simply triggers a natural defense reaction, introducing a scanty amount of poison into the body.
In terms of treatment with tincture of spotted hemlock, the most reasonable position would be in the middle between indiscriminate hope and implacable skepticism. We advise you to treat this cancer treatment method with due attention, especially if you or your loved one is in a difficult situation, and you don't have to choose much. Perhaps this is exactly the chance that should not be missed. Take care of yourself and be healthy!
