Rosehip thickens or thinns the blood - depending on how the plant is used. You can use different parts of the shrub for both purposes.
Rose hips thicken or thin the blood
In the recipes of traditional medicine, you can find conflicting information. Some algorithms for the preparation of medicines suggest using rose hips for thickening, others for liquefying the blood mass.
Both types of recipes actually work. It is true that rose hips thicken the blood, but the roots or shoots of the plant must be used for medicinal purposes. They are rich in vitamin K and promote the synthesis in the body of compounds responsible for clotting. But infusions and decoctions on berries contain an increased amount of ascorbic acid, due to which they thin the blood and accelerate its passage through the vessels.
Rosehip products are beneficial for migraines and problems with thermoregulation
How does the rosehip broth affect the blood: thickens or liquefies
A decoction of dried rosehip berries thins the blood. The drink is recommended for use with varicose veins, a tendency to thrombophlebitis and high blood pressure. You can prepare it like this:
- Dry fruits in the amount of half a glass are washed and removed from the tails.
- In an enamel saucepan, pour 5 liters of boiling water and put on the stove.
- Boil for 5 minutes over the slowest heat.
- Leave closed for 5-7 hours at room temperature.
Over time, the agent is filtered and taken half a glass up to three times a day.
With hypotension and poor clotting, it is recommended to use a drink from the roots and bark of the plant. Such a drug thickens the blood and is beneficial for gum disease, heavy periods in women, during the recovery period after surgery. The cooking algorithm looks like this:
- The dry roots of the plant are crushed in the volume of two large spoons.
- Brew 1 liter of fresh boiling water.
- Place on low heat and simmer for two minutes.
- Remove from the stove and insist for another two hours under the lid.
The filtered drug is also consumed at 100-150 ml three times a day.
Drinking decoctions of rosehip roots is better on an empty stomach, but not in a state of severe hunger
Rosehip infusion thins or thickens the blood
The effect of rosehip infusion on the body also depends on which parts of the plant it is prepared from. With increased clotting, traditional medicine advises making a drug from the fruit. The recipe is as follows:
- Put 25 washed whole berries in a thermos.
- Pour the fruits with 1 liter of fresh boiling water and allow the steam to come out.
- Screw the lid on tightly and leave the thermos at room temperature overnight.
- In the morning, filter the resulting infusion through cheesecloth.
A drink prepared according to this algorithm thins the blood when consumed no more than three times a day, about 1/2 cup.
When dry roots are used as raw materials, the plant thickens the blood. The recipe is practically the same:
- The shrub rhizome is ground in a blender or coffee grinder to a powder state.
- Measure 100 g of raw materials and pour 1 liter of boiling water in a thermos.
- Leave the solution closed for 10-12 hours, and then filtered.
Drink the drink up to four times a day in small portions of only 125 ml.
Rosehip medicinal infusions are recommended to be taken without interruption for no longer than a week
Conclusion
Rosehips thicken or thin the blood depending on the raw material selected for processing. The woody parts of the plant increase clotting, while the berries do the opposite.
