Home geranium: medicinal properties
Geranium, whose medicinal properties are known from ancient times, are grown by many lovers of indoor flowers. The plant is absolutely unpretentious and easy to care for. It can be used not only as an ornament for the room, but also for curing various kinds of diseases. At present, two types of this plant are grown by flower growers.
For recovery, you can use both of these types. However, the fragrant geranium, the medicinal properties of which are manifested mainly in the smell of its leaves, is preferable in this respect. Especially useful are the essential oils released by this plant, with various kinds of neurasthenia. In order to cure such diseases, it is enough to inhale the aroma of leaves of fragrant geranium for a quarter of an hour daily. The smell of this plant can also relieve headaches. For a more sustainable effect, it is worthwhile to turn the leaves into tubes and lay them in the ears.
Very geranium is also very beautiful. The healing properties of this variety are manifested primarily in the fact that its leaves are good for urolithiasis. To prepare a healing infusion, a glass is filled with leaves one third. Then they pour water (hot, but not boiling water) and insist for an hour. The liquid is filtered through gauze. Drink one third of the glass each time before eating.
With all sorts of problems with the eyes, you can also use the leaves and stalk of a plant such as geranium. The healing properties of this home flower allow you to apply it, for example, with cataracts. At the same time, juice is squeezed out of the stem and leaves. It must be instilled in the eye (in the corner) 1-2 drops each day. The problem of increased tearfulness can be eliminated by applying lotions from the infusion of dried leaves (2 tablespoons per cup of boiling water).
Geranium is a wonderful, beautiful plant with pronounced therapeutic properties. Even if you do not use it in infusions, drops and lotions, but just put it on the windowsill, the health effect from the essential oils emitted by its leaves will always appear.
