Fireweed contraindications and harm. Fire moth (wax moth): possible treatment options and reviews. Where is it used in medicine?

Avid beekeepers are probably familiar with the wax moth (also called the bee moth). In fact, this is a pest that feeds on wax (hence the name), but this pest accumulates so many useful substances in its body during its short life that it is simply a sin not to use the moth for medicinal purposes. Which, by the way, is what people have been doing for several centuries.

In this article we will look at the main method of treatment using fireweed - preparing and using a tincture. That’s why the article is called – Wax moth tincture, indications and contraindications.

Beneficial properties of wax moth

Many will probably be interested in how such a powerful effect is achieved when using fireweed tincture. What beneficial properties does wax moth have?

It's no secret that any beekeeping product has a very beneficial effect on the human body. In the case of the moth, this is expressed in the fact that by feeding on wax, as well as honeycombs and processing them in its body, it accumulates a huge proportion of useful substances that are contained in all beekeeping products.

Thanks to this, a powerful healing effect is achieved when using bee moth in folk medicine. What beneficial properties can preparations made from wax moth, in our case a tincture, have? First of all this:

  • significant improvement in metabolism
  • powerful antibacterial and antimicrobial properties
  • improved sleep
  • normalization of the nervous system
  • improving blood circulation
  • lowers blood pressure
  • normalizes hemoglobin levels and the number of red blood cells in the blood

And this is what the famous moth larvae look like. It doesn't look very attractive, but the healing power in them is simply colossal!

Next point. If you suffer from constantly high blood pressure or have heart problems (arrhythmia, cardioneurosis, ischemia) - again, tincture of moth in this case will be an ideal option for treating these diseases. It is also used after a heart attack as a restorative agent.

Moth tincture is quite effective in the treatment of male and female diseases. In men this may be impotence, in women – infertility or menopausal changes.

Children's health. Although it is not recommended to use bee moth tincture before the age of 12, in some cases an exception can still be made, and after 12 years nothing prevents you from using it to improve, for example, your child’s immunity. Until the age of 12, the tincture is used (of course, strictly observing the dosage) in the treatment of:

  1. The optimal time of administration is 30 minutes before meals or an hour after meals
  2. dosage – 3 drops of tincture for every 10 kg. weight of the patient, diluted in a small amount of water
  3. Frequency of administration: for prevention purposes, drink once a day, preferably in the morning. For medicinal purposes – 2 times a day, in the morning and before bedtime
  1. The optimal time of administration is also 30 minutes before meals or an hour after meals
  2. dosage – up to 12 years, no more than 1 drop for every 12 kg of weight. For the first 2 days you should drink 0.5 of the recommended dose and observe the body’s reaction. If everything is normal, then continue to drink the full dose.

What's important!!! Bee moth tincture is made with alcohol. This means that people with alcohol addiction and all those who have problems with liver function should not take it. It is also important to remember that the moth contains waste products of bees. Therefore, if you have, for example, an allergy to pollen, propolis or honey, the use of the tincture is prohibited for you and can be harmful!

Now let's look at the use of wax moth tincture in more detail.

Chronic diseases, weak immunity

For chronic diseases, poor immunity, or after treatment with chemicals, bee moth tincture is taken 3 times a day, 30 minutes before meals, 10–20 drops per 50–100 ml. water. The course of such treatment is 3 months, after which a mandatory break is required, after which the treatment is repeated. Most often, one course is not enough and 2-3 are done to achieve the effect.

Treatment of tuberculosis with tincture of moth

For tuberculosis, the dosage is increased gradually - from small doses to the average recommended (3 drops per 10 kg 3 times a day) or even slightly increased - 4 drops per 10 kg. The course of treatment is 2 months. It should be taken into account that during the treatment with fireweed, a patient with tuberculosis may have a rise in temperature, as well as strong sputum production.

In principle, this is normal. You should not interrupt treatment because of this; you can only slightly reduce the dosage of the tincture.

And one more important point for those who treat tuberculosis with moth tincture. Even if the patient feels noticeably better after completing 1–2 courses of treatment and the signs of the disease have disappeared, there is no need to stop treatment. To consolidate the effect, you need to drink the tincture for at least another month.

Treatment of infectious and viral diseases

For viral or infectious diseases, the tincture, as for tuberculosis, is taken for 2 to 3 months, with a subsequent break. Then, if necessary, the course of treatment is repeated.

The standard dosage is 3 drops for every 10 kilograms of the patient’s weight. Most often, one 3-month course of treatment is enough for the patient to feel significant relief.

Preventing colds and flu

For preventive purposes, the dosage is slightly reduced - on average to 2 drops for every 10 kg of the patient’s weight.

The intake is standard: diluted in water and drunk for a month before meals or an hour after it.

A course of prevention using wax moth tincture is an excellent solution during seasonal exacerbations of influenza. A very effective remedy!

My review of the use of wax moth tincture (moth)

In this article I will not publish numerous positive reviews about the use of fire tincture; you can easily find them on the Internet. I’ll tell you better about my experience of using it.

I have always respected beekeeping products, but somehow I never had the opportunity to try their effects on myself. The opportunity presented itself last year.

My daughter had to take the Unified State Exam, and already 3 months before she began to simply become hysterical, which turned into a severe nervous breakdown. This manifested itself in the fact that she began to sleep poorly and even screamed at night. She taught and crammed like a regular, but the more she studied, the more irritated she became.

Naturally, all this affected me too. I also became nervous, twitchy and could flare up for any reason and even without it. As a result, I invited my daughter to drink the tincture of fireweed for a month with her, since I knew about its properties to relieve stress and put the nervous system in order.

We drank the tincture for a month once a day in the evening before dinner 30 minutes, as recommended. After just 2 weeks, both my daughter and I were surprised to notice that we both became surprisingly calm.

The nervous system seems to relax, but at the same time unprecedented activity and energy appear. I constantly want to do something, keep myself busy. In addition, this year we almost did not get the flu. I think the flame helped here too!

Here's a review. Believe it or not, check it yourself. I am writing as it was, without any exaggeration.

Belongs to the family of small lepidopteran insects. In nature there are more than 6,200 species. They differ in food preferences and lifestyle. Most of all, parasites annoy gardeners and gardeners, destroying leaves on fruit trees, flowers, berries and cereals. The bee moth has become most famous due to the unique properties of its larva.

The wax moth butterfly climbs into the hive at night and, located under the main mass of bees, lays eggs. The masonry is placed on the bottom, walls of the hive, on the surface of the honeycombs in which pollen is stored and loosely closed cells with honey. In the morning, the moth leaves its shelter and hides in the foliage close to growing trees, only to return at night and continue its work. The moth lays eggs over several nights.

After 5-10 days, pale gray moth larvae emerge from the clutch. They have four legs and two setae located at the back. The length of the worm is approximately 1 mm. The entire development cycle of the moth takes place in the middle of the hive. Young larvae feed on pollen, honey and beebread. After some time, they include royal jelly, propolis and wax honeycomb in their diet. Moths can digest these chemically complex products due to the presence of a special enzyme.

Intensive nutrition contributes to the accumulation of beneficial nutrients in the body of the future insect. Having reached a length of two centimeters, and this happens after about a month, the larvae enter the pupal stage. The length of the female moth emerging from the pupa varies from 15 to 35 mm, and the male – 11-12 mm. Adults exist due to the nutrients accumulated by the larva, since they do not have a developed oral apparatus and digestive system.

A large number of larvae in a hive can completely destroy an entire bee family or force them to leave their home.

Despite the great harm that moths cause to beekeeping, they can provide invaluable benefits in the treatment of a large number of diseases.

Excursion into history

Healers and traditional healers already in the 17th century used bee moth extract as an effective remedy for the treatment of diseases of the lungs and cardiovascular system. Scientific research that confirmed the unique properties of the moth was carried out by Russian scientist I.I. Mechnikov. While working in Paris at the Pasteur Institute (1889), he conducted a series of studies with bee moth larvae as part of the creation of an anti-tuberculosis serum. The scientist found that the tissues of an unformed insect contain a large amount of valuable substances. The most prominent among them was the enzyme cerase, which can destroy wax compounds.


Interesting!

Using bee moth tincture, the scientist achieved amazing results in the treatment of patients with tuberculosis. The wax-containing capsule of the bacterium is destroyed, it becomes completely defenseless and can be easily destroyed.

In addition, Mechnikov noted that bee products have a positive effect if used in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Further research conducted by Professor S.I. Metalnikov and microbiologist I.S. Zolotarev, confirmed the beneficial properties of the moth and its high resistance to a number of pathogenic microorganisms. Experience in the practical use of extract from bee moth larvae was accumulated by cardiologist and homeopath S.A. Mukhin in the mid-20th century. He conducted his research for thirty years, prescribing the drug to patients during the treatment of various pulmonary and cardiac pathologies. Followers of the outstanding doctor proved that tincture of moth not only can cure many ailments, but also reduces the risk of serious diseases. Traditional medicine widely uses effective medicines prepared from wax moth larvae.

Known facts about the bee moth - wax (bee) moth

Moth butterfly, bee butterfly moth, wax moth, Galleria mellonella - all these are the names of one of the worst enemies of beekeepers and the most formidable enemy of honey bees.

One side of the dual nature of the wax moth is evil - harm caused to bees, and on the other hand, the moth brings good in the form of healing drugs from its biomaterial.

Speaking about the benefits of using biomaterial bee moth it must be said that nature has endowed the bee moth with useful qualities and people have learned to take their valuable gift from these small insects. Knowing this, some beekeepers raise moth larvae in specially designated areas, subject to their control outside the hives.

Since ancient times, traditional healers have shown interest in the products produced by bees. They made medicines from wax moth larvae and treated patients for many ailments. Extracts and ointments based on wax moth biomaterial helped to recover patients with tuberculosis, put the infirm back on their feet, healed wounds, and relieved joint pain. For many centuries, the holders of knowledge of the medicinal qualities of moth were a narrow circle of people, into which folk healers and beekeepers did not let anyone in. Extracts from wax moth larvae have been used to treat patients with cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases since the 17th century.

Nobel Prize winner I.I. At the end of the 19th century, Mechnikov conducted research on the biomaterial of the bee moth to create an anti-tuberculosis vaccine. The veil of secrecy of a narrow circle of people was lifted and the medical and scientific community learned about the miraculous healing capabilities of the bee moth.

Mechnikov used an extract of wax moth larvae to prevent tuberculosis.

Among all the valuable components of wax moth biomaterial, cerase occupies a special place. This enzyme dissolves wax and waxy substances. The tuberculosis bacillus in the human body has the form of a wax-like capsule. The enzyme cerase dissolves this capsule and the tuberculosis bacillus, this terrible bacillus, remains unprotected in front of the immune protective barrier. In his research, Mechnikov proved that this ability can be used to destroy the waxy membranes of tuberculosis bacteria.

Work in this direction was continued by Sergei Alekseevich Mukhin, a famous Moscow homeopathic cardiologist who devoted a lot of time to solving the problems of traditional medicine and homeopathy. His scientific research confirmed the anti-tuberculosis effect of wax moth extract. An in-depth study of the preparation of wax moth larvae allowed it to open up therapeutic possibilities for effective use in old age to increase general tone, for heart diseases, for many restorative processes in the human body, including the ability to heal fresh scars after a heart attack.

His interest in studying the medicinal capabilities of wax moths arose for a reason, because All members of Mukhin's family were stricken with consumption, and the boy himself had been ill since childhood. His mother and her two youngest children died of tuberculosis; the children were not even one year old. Seryozha Mukhin was helped to recover by folk healers who knew very well the recipes for preparing beekeeping products - propolis and wax moth extract and could treat with them. Thanks to these people, the future doctor was saved.

Apitherapy deals with the treatment of many diseases using live bees and bee products. Healing products produced by bees are the basis for the preparation of extracts, ointments, and tablets. In Vologda, in the early seventies of the last century, an apitherapy point was opened at the neurological department. Professor E. A. Ludyansky was one of the first to use apitherapy in combination with traditional methods of treatment.

In Russia, in the early 90s of the last century, financial support for research into beekeeping products and the development of new apitherapy methods arose. There has been a new round of development in this area. Russian and foreign clinics, breeding and experimental stations in different regions, the Beekeeping Research Institute in Rybnoye, Ryazan Region, the Central Research Institute of Gastroenterology in Moscow, and the Tentorium company in Perm are currently developing new methods of apitherapy and researching beekeeping products.

After using antibiotics, fungal diseases of the lungs may occur - in these cases, wax moth tincture is quite effective.

The wax moth preparation is a powerful antioxidant. Its use leads to an increase in resistance to tuberculosis infection in the tissues of the lungs and other organs. Wax moth tincture prevents the spread of infection and the formation of new lesions in the body.

Taking bee moth extract helps suppress the resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to antibiotics during antibacterial therapy.

The drug heals tuberculous cavities in the lungs, promotes their further resorption thanks to enzymes that can destroy the membrane of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The use of moth extract is effective in the treatment of tuberculosis of bones, kidneys, skin, and lymph nodes.

In order to prevent relapses of tuberculosis and in case of contact with a patient with an active form of tuberculosis, it is recommended to take moth extract.

The founder of the Moscow homeopathic school, S. A. Mukhin, became acquainted with homeopathy in practice during his student years. It was she who helped cope with her own illness, thanks to the talent of a scientist and doctor.

Bee moth extract and heart disease

Famous cardiologist and homeopath S.A. Mukhin left a great legacy in the complex treatment of heart diseases. He used apitherapy drugs in traditional medicine. Dr. S.A. Mukhin studied the medicinal properties of bee moth extract for more than 3 decades, using it in a medical institution. His clinical studies revealed the cardioprotective and cardiotropic properties of moth extract.

Sergei Mukhin graduated from the Faculty of Medicine of Moscow University and was seriously involved in cardiology. After studying at the university, Mukhin worked on his dissertation at the Institute of Cardiology. Independent study of traditional medicine manuscripts allowed the scientist to prove the promise of using homeopathy in geriatrics and in the treatment of heart diseases.

The Moscow homeopathic school was based on a special approach to the prescription of medicines. S. A. Mukhin divided cardiac drugs according to their predominant effect on certain structures of the heart: connective tissue base, cardiac muscle, capillary and lymphatic network of the myocardium, coronary circulation (arterial and venous), conduction system, and also separately identified drugs used for different pain characteristics, which can be used as a basis for classification. One of the components of the homeopathic school of medicines is the wax moth Galleria mellonella, and specifically the wax moth extract.

The great physiologist Hans Selye highly appreciated the works of S. A. Mukhin, calling them “the discovery of the century”!

Scientific studies of bee moth biomaterial have shown the effectiveness of treatment with drugs based on it in the complex treatment of atherosclerosis, cardiosclerosis, angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, stimulating hematopoiesis, reducing shortness of breath, reducing the frequency of angina attacks, cardiac arrhythmias, exhibiting pronounced cardioprotective properties.

Wax moth larvae extract improves electrocardiogram parameters. After starting treatment with 20% moth extract, a decrease in blood pressure is possible. On the 10-15th day of taking the drug, blood pressure may decrease by 12 - 14%.

In the laboratory of Prof. M. N. Kondrashova (Institute of Biological Physics AH CCCP since 1981) continued research on the study of wax moth extract. The results confirmed the ability of this drug to restore tissue after deep morphological damage caused by a state of hyperreactivity. The amazing ability of this medicine was the resorption of fresh scars after myocardial infarction.

Tissue restoration after deep morphological damage has been confirmed by the studies of many scientists:

Professor N.P. Sinitsyn performed a resection of a section of the dog’s heart muscle with its subsequent restoration;

L.V. Polezhaev and A.H. Studitsky obtained acceleration of muscle tissue regeneration using various stimulants;

A. A. Bogomolets studied restoration processes in connective tissue;

Le Gros Clark and his colleagues, Betz, Godman and others, as a result of research, obtained muscle restoration after deep ischemic damage caused by vascular ligation and other reasons;

Geller achieved restoration of muscle fibers after their breakdown in diphtheria myocarditis

Numerous works in this area encourage the need to take a closer look at the problem and reconsider previous ideas about the inability of the heart muscle to regenerate.

Currently, a group of researchers from ITEB RAS, Ryazan Medical University, and Samara State University have confirmed the conclusion of Dr. S.A. Mukhina about the medicinal properties of wax moth extract.

Bee moth extract, obstetrics and gynecology

For the first time in obstetric practice, wax moth extract was used by Associate Professor of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of the Ryazan Medical University Yu.K. Gander.

He studied various pathologies of pregnancy, observing women in a hospital setting, monitoring the effectiveness of treatment based on ultrasound results and biochemical blood tests.

Observations have shown that wax moth extract in complex treatment:

Helps increase the body's immune activity and prevents spontaneous miscarriages associated with insufficient immune function of the placenta;

Helps improve metabolism, determined by increasing hemoglobin levels;

Improves microcirculation in the area of ​​the uterus and placenta;

Leads to continuation of pregnancy

All women who received complex therapy confirmed its high effectiveness by the fact that they all maintained their pregnancy and gave birth to healthy children.

Control of treatment with wax moth tincture in complex treatment - based on the results of a medical examination.

Bee moth extract and urology (andrology)

Andrology is an important field of medicine that studies the problems of men, male anatomy and physiology. She studies the state of health and diseases of the male genital organs, other organs and systems interconnected with them, as well as methods of prevention and treatment of individual and social rehabilitation of patients. In Russia there is no official definition of an andrologist, so male problems are solved mainly by urologists, as well as sex therapists and endocrinologists. Wax moth extract is recommended for use in the treatment of prostate adenoma, male infertility, and decreased libido.

Bee moth extract and gerontology

Old age leads to deterioration of health, mental abilities, and attenuation of body functions. At different times, people tried to prolong their youth.

The State Historical Museum of Moscow keeps in its treasuries a manuscript of traditional medicine that has been preserved and reached us since the 17th century. It indicates the rejuvenation of older people and the prevention of aging. The manuscript contains recipes for preparing wax moth extract. Traditional healers used it to prevent aging and treat patients, seeking to strengthen endurance, restore performance after hard physical work, get rid of infirmity, improve memory and increase defenses against diseases.

The famous scientist Sergei Mukhin in 1959 in Moscow made a report on the problems of longevity at the Conference. Following the scientist’s recommendations, wax moth extract as a rejuvenating agent should be taken in old age in courses, preferably 2 times a year for 3 months.
