The most effective remedy for any thyroid disease
This miracle cure is the Veselka mushroom growing on the fertile soil of forests and thickets of bushes. At the initial stage of development, it looks like a white egg, from which a mushroom cap, covered with mucus, sprouts a little later. The fungus exists for a maximum of 2 days, reaches a height of 15 cm, then undergoes destruction.
As a result of scientific research, it has been established that the Veselka mushroom has an exceptional biochemical composition and healing properties.
It contains:
- Antioxidants,
- Polysaccharides,
- Phytosteroids,
- Phytoncides,
- Terpenoids.
Antioxidants have a rejuvenating effect, tone up, eliminate the harmful effects of free radicals. Polysaccharides stimulate the production of perforin, which eliminates tumor cells of any etiology, activates the activity of T-lymphocytes, which search for and destroy cancer cells in the human body. Phytosteroids act similarly to male sex hormones, increasing potency and vitality in men. Phytoncides have a recognized antiviral and bactericidal effect.
What diseases is the mushroom useful for?
The main direction of treatment with drugs based on the fungus is the elimination of tumors of various organs, regardless of their origin.
The list of formations amenable to fungal therapy includes:
- Nodules in the tissues of the thyroid gland;
- Fibroids;
- Cysts;
- Papillomas;
- BPH;
- Melanoma;
- Malignant tumors.
In addition to the antitumor effect, preparations based on the fungus have a wide range of valuable qualities. They normalize blood pressure, cleanse blood vessels from cholesterol plaques, heal ulcerations on the mucous membrane of the stomach and intestines, and remove toxins. Valuable substances in the composition of the Veselka mushroom promote the elimination of “bad” cholesterol from the body, have a hepatoprotective effect, and prevent the formation of stones in the gallbladder.
The antibacterial properties of the fungus are used in the treatment of inflammatory diseases of the genitourinary system, the restoration of the affected skin and mucous membrane, and the wound surface. Stimulation of regenerative processes is used in the treatment of arthritis, gout, trophic ulcers, arthrosis, osteochondrosis. Means based on the Veselka mushroom can be taken both for the treatment and prevention of these diseases.
Tincture recipe
For the treatment of diseases of the thyroid gland, a tincture of the mushroom with alcohol or vodka is used. If the defeat of the gland or other organ is malignant, the mushroom is taken as the main raw material in the initial stage of development - at the stage of the egg, when the amount of polysaccharides in its composition is greatest. If you plan to treat not an oncological disease, but a benign tumor, or other pathological process, you can use both a matured mushroom and a mushroom in the egg stage.
Tincture recipe:
- For internal use - pour 50 g of fresh mushroom (or 5 g of dried raw materials) 200 ml of vodka and leave for 2 weeks in the refrigerator, no need to filter;
-
For external use - pour 100 g of freshly picked mushroom (or 10 g of dried raw materials) 200 ml of 40% alcohol, leave for 2 weeks in a cool place, close the container tightly, after infusion, you do not need to filter.
Alternative recipe for any method of use:
Cut a freshly sprouted mushroom or mushroom in the egg stage (800 g) into large pieces, put in a three-liter jar, pour 35-40% alcohol-containing liquid, seal tightly and leave for 1.5-2 months for infusion in a cellar or refrigerator.
The output will be a cognac-colored tincture, suitable for consumption for 2 years, if stored correctly - in the refrigerator, in an opaque container.
Alcohol-free cooking
If the underlying disease is complicated by liver or gastrointestinal tract pathologies, taking an alcohol-containing tincture can aggravate the patient's condition. An alternative to tincture can be infusions and decoctions of the mushroom, using it raw, as an ingredient in a salad.
Alcohol-free recipes:
- Aqueous infusion - pour 200 ml of boiling water over 1 teaspoon of dried mushroom, insist for 8 hours in the dark, strain, divide into 3 doses, drink during the day;
- Honey infusion - pour the sliced mushrooms with liquid honey in a ratio of 1: 1, set aside for 6-8 hours, eat 1 piece of mushroom in honey 3 times a day, the course of treatment is 1 month.
Schemes and doses of administration
Treatment of tumors with tincture of the mushroom does not cancel the intake of drugs prescribed by the doctor, but supplements them. Start taking the drug with 1 teaspoon per day, taken on an empty stomach. The dose is increased gradually, and, with a neutral reaction of the body, it is brought to 1 tbsp. l. 3 times a day. This dosage is adhered to for a month. The infusion is washed down with a raw egg or at the same time they eat a tablespoon of honey.
The treatment regimen contains 3 courses of 30 days each. There is a break of 1 week between the first and second course, between 2 and 3 - a break of 2 weeks. One course of treatment takes about a liter of tincture. Thyrotoxic goiter of the thyroid gland is treated in a similar way. To eliminate nodes in the thyroid gland, 1-2 courses of taking mushroom infusion are enough.
Contraindications
Infusion of the Veselka mushroom is contraindicated for patients with individual intolerance to this product, for children under 12 years of age, for women during pregnancy. To determine the body's response to drugs with this ingredient, you need to start taking it with the minimum dose. Side effects in the treatment with infusions and tinctures with Veselka have not been identified.
There is a danger when collecting medicinal raw materials to confuse the Veselka mushroom with poisonous species with a similar appearance. It is better for inexperienced users to consult with experienced mushroom pickers, to study the distinctive features of the mushroom in advance.

Treatment of the thyroid gland with cinquefoil
More recently, this plant has been proposed as a remedy for eliminating thyroid dysfunction (thyrotoxicosis, hyperthyroidism, thyroid hyperplasia). The therapeutic efficacy of the drug has been clinically confirmed. The study of the pharmacological activity of the plant showed that the extracts from the roots and herbs are practically non-toxic. At the same time, when used orally, extracts from the aboveground part stimulate the central nervous system, and extracts from the underground - increase diuresis (by 28%). It is also known that white cinquefoil exhibits antibacterial activity.
But the most famous is the appointment of Potentilla white in diseases of the thyroid gland, accompanied by thyrotoxicosis. The thyrostatic effect of Potentilla has been proven by numerous scientific experiments. This is a case in which the possibility of replacing white cinquefoil with another species does not exist.
It is very important to normalize the level of thyroid hormones, since there is not a single function in the body that is not controlled by it (when it is violated, pressure jumps, the heart jumps, nerves are tense, sugar rises, weight is overweight, etc.). All this can be normalized by white cinquefoil. But not as fast as we would like. With advanced diseases, the consumption of the plant root is 300 g, which is about 2 years of use. Some patients have to use cinquefoil up to 3 years. Many object to such long-term treatment, forgetting that for 10-20 years they have been taking hormonal drugs or have been operated on more than once, and the nodes are growing again.
Recipe for tincture from the root of Potentilla white
Pour the crushed roots with vodka in a ratio of 1:10 (for example, 50 g of root per 500 ml of vodka), insist in a dark place for 3-4 weeks. Take 20-30 drops with 2 tbsp. spoons of boiled water 3 times a day 15-20 minutes before meals. For a more complete extraction of active substances, the dry residue is recommended to re-pour 250 cubic meters. cm of the same alcohol, insist 3-4 weeks and take 40-50 drops from 2 tbsp. spoons of boiled water in the same mode. The course of treatment is 1 month. After each month, take a break of 7-10 days. After a 7-day break, continue thyroid treatment until complete recovery.
With advanced forms of the disease, 100-200 g of root per 500 ml of vodka.
European zyuznik for hyperthyroidism
One of the active substances (presumably a derivative of caffeic acid - lithospermic acid) makes this medicinal plant curative for relatively mild forms of thyroid hyperfunction. This substance probably reduces the excitability of the thyroid gland and at the same time counteracts the excess of its hormone.
Data from clinical studies show that the preparation of the herb of the European zyuznik normalizes the increased activity of the thyroid gland. It reduces hypoxia in case of thyrotoxicosis, normalizes basic blood counts, and reduces the weight of the thyroid gland in case of thyroid diseases.
Recipes:
- Infusion: 20-30 gr. Brew the herbs of European zyuznik with 1 glass of boiling water, insist, filter. Take 0.5 cups of infusion 3 times a day.
- Tincture: 1 tbsp. pour a spoonful of herbs with 100 ml of 70% alcohol, leave in a dark place for 4 weeks. Take 5-10 drops before meals.
- Broth: Boil 1 teaspoon herb per 250 ml of water for 5 minutes, drain. Take 50 ml 3-4 times a day for heart disease.
- Tea: 2 teaspoons without the top of dry herb pour 250 ml of boiling water, leave for 10 minutes, strain. Take tea in small sips warm and unsweetened. It is recommended to drink a cup twice a day for several weeks.
Cherry Bark Thyroid Treatment
One of the most effective treatments for the thyroid gland is the dried cherry bark. For more information about this about why it is so useful and how to collect it, read the article: treatment of goiter with dried cherry bark
Gather yourself half a liter of dried cherry bark, put it in a liter jar and top up with vodka to the brim. It should be insisted in a dark place for 3 weeks, preferably shaking daily. You need to take the infusion one tablespoon 3 times a day half an hour before meals. It is necessary to continue taking it until the thyroid gland is cured.
Cocklebur
The plant helps to reduce the enlarged thyroid gland in goiter and has an anti-spastic effect in intestinal colic.
Recipes:
- Broth. Raw materials 1 tbsp. spoon in a glass of water, boil over low heat for 10 minutes, leave for 1 hour, drain. Drink 1 tbsp. spoon 4-5 times a day.
- Fresh Juice. It is used for acne, urticaria, furunculosis, sore throat, lichen, scrofula, cancer, asthma, goiter, spasms in the throat, malignant tumors. Wash the grass thoroughly, grind it in a meat grinder and squeeze the juice through a gauze napkin. Consume 15-20 drops 2 times a day diluted with a little water.
- Alcohol tincture. For long-term storage, you can make an alcoholic tincture. To do this, dilute the juice with alcohol in a 1: 1 ratio. Store the tincture in the refrigerator, take it instead of juice, increasing the number of drops per dose by 2 times.
Contraindications
Cocklebur is a poisonous plant, it must be used with caution and adherence to dosage. Should be abandoned in case of exacerbation of gastric ulcer and intestinal ulcer. In case of persistent constipation, do not use decoctions of roots and seeds.
Dyeing gorse
In the treatment of diseases of the thyroid gland (goiter, myxedema, hypothyroidism), gorse is similar in action to the action of thyroidin. Applied with decreased, increased thyroid function, autoimmune thyroiditis.
Dyeing gorse belongs to poisonous plants, requires not only strict, but also individual dosage. When prescribing it, it should be borne in mind that the herb infusion has a vasoconstrictor effect. Gorse is contraindicated in atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, hypertension. Do not use gorse during pregnancy. If there are large kidney stones, then you need to be very careful with gorse. And choose the dose carefully, and maybe even look for another plant.
If large quantities of gorse are used, poisoning similar to nicotine poisoning can occur. Care must be taken when using the plant, as the plant is poisonous.
Recipes:
- A decoction of gorse, along with the fruits of hawthorn and motherwort fruits, is taken for hypothyroidism, hypotension. Ingredient ratio: 1: 2: 2. At 1 st. water take 2 tbsp. l. mixtures. The mixture is boiled over low heat for 10 minutes, insisted for half an hour. Drink 4 times a day for 1 tbsp. l. half an hour before eating.
- The broth is prepared at the rate of 15 g of chopped grass and gorse flowers per 500 mg of boiled water. It is necessary to boil the composition in a steam bath for 1/3 of the volume, then cool and strain through 2-3 layers of gauze. Dosage - 2 tablespoons 4 times a day. The broth is used as a choleretic, diuretic and laxative.
Laminaria - a source of iodine for the thyroid gland
Laminaria (seaweed) is the most effective natural remedy for the prevention and treatment of thyroid diseases, especially endemic goiter. The thyroid gland secretes hormones into the blood, which have a versatile effect on the body. For their formation, iodine is required in sufficient quantities.
The thyroid gland is the absolute champion in the body in terms of iodine consumption. With its lack of hormones, little is released, and, as a result, a disease develops - hypothyroidism. hypothyroidism occurs especially often where there is a lack of iodine in nature.
To fill the iodine deficiency in the body, iodized salt is used, although this is far from the best way. The iodine compound in the salt was not persistent. It was destroyed in a humid atmosphere, in the light and at elevated temperatures (during cooking). The use of iodine bound to organic molecules is much more effective for this purpose. It is more stable and much easier for the body to absorb. This method is very popular, for example, in England and the USA, where powder from brown algae - relatives of kelp - is added to bread.
The irony of fate lies in the fact that Primorye, where the main plantations of kelp are concentrated, is also an area of endemic goiter.
Seaweed contains a large amount of easily digestible iodine (up to 0.3% of dry weight) associated with organic molecules. Therefore, it is easily absorbed by the human body, normalizing the function of the thyroid gland. In terms of iodine content, kelp is far ahead of all known terrestrial medicinal plants.
Scientists have been studying the antitumor properties of algae for several years. Japanese scientists have found that kelp extract can prevent the growth of cancerous tumors. In addition, seaweed contains organic iodine. When there is enough iodine, enzymes are not produced, and all excess, without being absorbed into the blood, naturally leaves the body. It turns out that the human body receives exactly as much iodine as it needs and nothing more.
