coniferous resin was known in Ancient Egypt. The priests added it to the composition of the balm, which was soaked in the mummies. Sap has incredible healing power and the ability to heal the most severe wounds. The inhabitants of our country, living in Siberia and the Urals, have long discovered this natural antiseptic. It has been used to treat boils and festering wounds, burns and cuts.

A bandage moistened with resin was applied to snake bites, diluted with alcohol. pine resin used for back pain and lower back pain. Houses were smoked with the smoke of burning resin, this helped to disinfect the premises. It was applied to a sore tooth, so that the pain was taken orally - for tuberculosis and pneumonia, peptic ulcer and illness duodenum. By the way, in the production of the usual patch, which we buy today at the pharmacy, it is also used, which gives it healing and disinfecting properties. And the peoples of the Caucasus traditionally made a special chewing gum out of it, which healed, cleaned and strengthened the teeth. During World War II, Siberian balsam, made from pine resin, was widely used in military hospitals. Bandages impregnated with it protected wounds from infection, accelerated healing and stimulated tissue regeneration processes.

Preparations from resin coniferous trees have bactericidal, anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, blood-purifying, wound-healing properties. They soothe nervous system, reduce asthmatic, scorbutic manifestations, strengthen cardiovascular system. Unique properties resin and her application for the treatment and prevention of many diseases influenced the decision to create turpentine balm (a mixture of resin and cedar oil), which would be available to a wide range of consumers.

For the first time industrial blanks resin in our country began to be conducted in 1932 in Altai. In 1947, there were already several large farms involved in the collection and processing of this valuable raw material. The method of obtaining coniferous resin is quite simple. In areas specially designated for this - plots - oleoresin harvesters (professional name vzmyshchiki) make several parallel inclined cuts on the tree trunk. A small container is attached below, into which the resin flowing from the incisions is collected. Resin can flow throughout the summer, from one tree uplifters get up to two kilograms of coniferous resin in three months.

By the way, the well-known amber is also pine resin, only managed to crystallize over millions of years. Amber belongs to semi-precious minerals and has a rich color range - from golden and red to. Not only jewelry is made from it: rings, bracelets and necklaces, but also various decorative items. Remember the world-famous amber room in Tsarskoye Selo, which disappeared during the years of the second myrrh war. Everything in it, from wall decoration to a small box, was made of amber.

Zhivitsa, treatment preparations created on its basis, and today is widely used. Cedar resin is the most powerful natural antioxidant known today. Recent scientific experiments have shown that crystallized resin is able to regenerate damaged cellular level. This discovery only confirms the intuition of our ancestors, who used the resin of coniferous trees as natural remedy from many diseases.

On the places of cuts or damage to the pine bark, you can see transparent resinous drops. This is pine resin medicinal properties which have been known since antiquity, especially in regions where coniferous forests grow. "Resinous tears" contain all the benefits of pine and correct use help maintain good health.

Resin is nothing more than a resinous liquid, or the sap of a coniferous tree. It appears in places of damage to the tree bark. Wounds are dangerous for the pine, in this way it heals them. The resin solidifies, forming a protective layer. It prevents fungal spores, insects and other microorganisms from getting inside the tree.

The chemical composition of the resinous substance consists of three-quarters of retinols (resin esters) and various fatty acids. It contains vitamins A, group B, C, E, D, K, PP and others. The resin contains rare trace elements: cobalt, barium, iodine, iron, zinc, chromium, copper. Pine tree sap has a viscous structure, but it easily moves through the inside of the wood due to the content of turpentines - special solvents. which is considered no less in demand in traditional medicine, has a similar property.

Since ancient times, the resinous substance served as a healing agent for hunters who went into the taiga for several days. It also helped fight colds. Dried tar was chewed by many in childhood, it has a pleasant coniferous flavor. The spectrum of action of the substance is very extensive. Its main healing properties:

Pine resin is used to treat the following diseases:

Pine resin is useful for eliminating or preventing the above diseases, for maintaining immune system and saturation of the body with useful substances. If used as chewing gum, it will freshen your breath, improve your oral cavity and help slow down the development of caries.

Useful properties of coniferous resin, as well as essential, cedar, juniper, are recognized by official medicine. It is actively used to create warming ointments that help with pain in the joints and spine. Turpentine oil is extracted from the product, which is a drug against cholelithiasis.

How to collect resin yourself?

Gathering raw materials to create medicines produced far from highways and settlements, at least at a distance of 30 km. The most valuable raw material is extracted from young trees, the trunk thickness of which does not exceed 30 cm. The tree must grow in a dry area, in which case it will have more resin content than those growing in wet conditions. The active movement of juice resumes in summer and lasts until late autumn. Most healing raw materials can be collected in hot weather. The higher the temperature, the thinner it is.

Pine tapping used to collect resin

You can collect resin from a coniferous tree yourself, guided by several rules:

• the collection container is tied around the trunk with a cord;
• visually, the trunk is divided by a vertical line, on the sides of which cuts are made with an inclination of 45 ° (about 20);
• notches are mirrored so that they are directed down to the center;
• the resinous composition will drain into the funnel;
• do not collect more than 2 kg at a time so that the tree does not suffer;
• at the end of the collection, the sections are smeared with garden pitch.

The collection of coniferous juice is carried out mainly in forests left for felling. Dried trees emit much less resin after felling. Cured resin can be collected all year round, but in the cold season it is less sticky, which means it is easier to separate. In the forest, trees are found with natural cracks, on which tar has frozen. To separate it, the knife is wiped with an oiled cloth, otherwise it will stick. The substance is cut off in small layers, since large pieces more difficult to separate due to their malleability. If it is not possible to independently go to the forest for raw materials, then you can buy it in specialized stores or pharmacies.

External use of healing resin

For external use, an ointment or oil is suitable. In ointment pine resin acts as a warming, wound healing and analgesic agent. If you wish, you can cook it at home:

In folk medicine, pine resin is famous as a multifunctional remedy. It helps to heal hundreds of ailments without harm to health. Do not refuse such a tool in your first aid kit.

Sometimes the pines cry. A frost crack on the trunk, a branch broken by snow or wind, someone's ax, knife or other tool that left a wound. And the tree releases drops of a clear or slightly yellowish viscous liquid. This is pine resin - the resinous sap of the tree.

Zhivitsa performs protective function- heals wounds. Most likely, that's why it's named so. The released juice in the air hardens, becoming whitish. The wound is covered with a film that prevents the penetration of pathogens and fungi.

Not only pine has resin - all conifers: larch, fir, (Siberian pine) and others. But of practical importance for us is, first of all, pine resin - the juice of Scotch pine.

Pine resin: composition, properties, processing, application

Three-quarters of the composition of pine resin is resin acids. In the normal state, these substances are solid. Why is resin - albeit viscous, but still a liquid?

In addition to resin acids, resin contains substances that chemists call terpenes. Their share is only about 18%. But terpenes are great solvents. Pine oleoresin is a solution of resin acids in terpenes.

Due to this, the resin moves quite easily along the resin passages penetrating the wood. Sometimes it accumulates in the so-called "resin pockets". These, however, are more typical for spruce and, especially, for fir. In pine, they are less common.

Pine resin hardened in the air is officially called barras, and unofficially - gray. Nothing to do with sulfur chemical pine sulfur does not have.

Harvesting and processing of pine resin

The healing properties of the resin of coniferous people discovered for themselves in times immemorial. But then he took from nature, first of all, what she herself gave him. And not in such large quantities. Everything changed with the development of industry.

The first thing that people began to massively use from Scotch pine juice for their practical purposes was pine resin. Boats were tarred with it, and later - wooden ships and tackle for them. However, to obtain resin, they used not so much resin as resin - resinous branches, and especially resinous stumps that stood on the felling sites for several years.

The resin industry was highly developed in many places where large tracts of pine forests grew along the banks of the rivers. One of these areas is my homeland, the banks of the Kuloi and Vaga rivers, flowing into the Northern Dvina (I introduced readers to it).

This craft in places where river and sea vessels were built also appeared many centuries ago. In our country, it has been developing since Peter the Great, from the beginning of the 18th century. The resin industry was especially developed in the first half of the 19th century. At that time, almost every peasant had his own tar "factory". This loud word, however, has nothing to do with its modern meaning, with a large industrial enterprise.

The tar “factory” is just a semi-dugout with a firebox, a cube for tar (stumps and branches) and a wooden tray for draining molten resin into a substituted barrel. In the summer, in between agricultural work, they prepared resin. And in the winter they started "smoking" - distillation of resin. Smoke, fumes, heat at the stove, cold outside ... The work of hells! But he gave the peasant a little extra money. And from the inevitable colds, they were treated primarily with pine resin.

In the spring, barrels of resin were picked up by a reseller. They were installed on special rafts and floated down the river - to Arkhangelsk. From other places of fishing, the resin went to St. Petersburg, as well as to the southern shipyards of the country.

The turn of mass harvesting and processing of pine resin came a little later. From the middle of the 19th century, turpentine "factories" began to appear in our area. They were arranged by merchants and wealthy peasants. Such a "factory" was a barn with a furnace, a large distillation cube, a metal cap over it and tubes through which the vapors were discharged and where they were cooled.

Pine resin and sulfur were loaded into the cube. When heated, the volatile components of resin - terpenes - evaporated. Cooling, they condensed into turpentine. The remaining solid part was a vitreous mass. It was rosin.

But, before being processed, pine resin from a tree must be obtained. Sometimes on pine trees you can see strange for the uninitiated "decorations" in the form of a reverse Christmas tree. (It would be more correct to call them wounds.) These are the traces of the turpentine being harvested. In our area, it stopped by the end of the 80s of the 20th century.

The process of harvesting pine resin is called tapping. First, the bark is removed from a part of the trunk. A longitudinal groove is made in the sapwood, and lateral channels are cut to it to a depth of several annual rings. Below is suspended receiver in the form of a funnel. A metal plate is fixed in front of it, along which pine resin flows into the funnel.

Further, I think it is clear. The person who collects the resin walks around the site, removes the filled funnels, and installs new ones. The prepared resin is poured into barrels. From time to time, the wounds on the trees need to be refurbished. The resin hardens - the tree is protected. This process is called uplifting, and the worker is called uplifting.

It is believed that without harm to the tree, 1 - 2 kg of pine resin can be taken from it. Of course, it all depends on how economic activity person complies with environmental standards. And the tapping of the same trees from year to year weakens them, leading to diseases.

Therefore, tapping, according to the rules, should be carried out in forests, which are destined for cutting down in 5-10 years. As I already mentioned, we have not been tapping pine trees for twenty-five years. The existing chemical forestry enterprises were closed in the heat of “perestroika”.

Is this good or bad? Yes, how to say? Previously, before cutting down a pine forest, valuable chemical raw materials were obtained from it. Now the forest is being cut down...

Modern wood-chemical enterprises in terms of equipment and technology have gone far from the turpentine "factory" described by me. But the principles of processing pine resin, in general, are the same. It is distilled off by dry distillation or steam distillation. turpentine. the rest rosin processed further.

Turpentine for modern man not as important as for a peasant a hundred years ago. We don't have harnesses for horses, which they oiled. There are leather boots. But we prefer not to lubricate them with turpentine. Although it is good for leather shoes! And the skin becomes soft, and water does not pass.

But turpentine also has other uses. It is an excellent solvent for varnishes and paints. A significant part of turpentine goes to the production of medicines. In medicine, only turpentine obtained from resin is used. There are other ways to get it, too.

And rosin is used not only for rubbing string bows musical instruments. It is used in tinning and soldering, in the production of artificial rubber and rubber, plastics, paper and cardboard, soap, and in many other important matters. For medicines, too. Obtained from rosin and purified turpentine.

Healing properties of pine resin

Pine resin has antiseptic and antibacterial properties, promotes wound healing, heals inflammation, and relieves pain.

When receiving a small wound in the forest, it is quite possible to use pine resin instead of iodine. It heals not only fresh cuts, but also festering wounds, as well as boils.

For the treatment of boils, a bandage folded several times is impregnated with resin and applied to the sore spot. After 2 - 3 days, the boil resolves.

Another thing is that in this case we are treating the consequence - the boil, and not the cause - the disease, the result of which was its appearance. But right here you need to see a doctor!

Quite similarly, pine resin can be used to treat small festering wounds, as well as some skin diseases - for example, fungal ones.

Pine resin in a small amount (2 grams) can be added to the bath. Such a bath will relieve fatigue, has a calming effect, promotes good sleep.

When coughing, you can achieve relief by swallowing a few grains of hardened resin (pine "sulfur").

In childhood, we willingly chewed such “sulfur”, replacing the chewing gum that was absent then. From it, by the way, there was more benefit than from modern chewing gum - and the mouth refreshes and disinfects oral cavity, teeth, gums, helps prevent caries.

Pine resin is useful in itself. Applied in medicinal purposes and its derivatives - turpentine and rosin.

You can buy in pharmacies turpentine, purified. It is used for inhalation for broncho-pulmonary diseases (per glass hot water 10 - 15 drops).

For rubbing with neuralgia, rheumatism, myositis, use turpentine liniment also sold in pharmacies.

Used for gallstone disease drug olimetin, which includes purified turpentine oil.

And turpentine oil, by the way, is another name for turpentine!

Gum turpentine is used as an irritant in rubbing mixtures, ointments for osteochondrosis, rheumatism, and sciatica.

Traditional medicine uses turpentine to treat asthma, tuberculosis, peptic ulcer. There is even information (not officially confirmed!) About the treatment of oncology. In these cases, turpentine is taken orally.

But when using internally, it is important to remember - turpentine is poisonous ! It is necessary to strictly observe the dosage, and it involves the use of drops.

For diseases of the liver and kidneys internal use turpentine is contraindicated!

In this case, the most important principle applies - need to be treated by a specialist !

Treatment of a whole "bouquet" of diseases involves the use of turpentine baths according to the method of Dr. Zalmanov. But, as far as I understand, the methods of Zalmanov and his followers official medicine do not recognize. I myself cannot be considered in this matter not only an “expert”, but even a more or less savvy connoisseur ...

Pine resin really helps to revitalize, improve health and prolong life. And not only, but also us.

Coniferous resin or in the people - resin. The name was given for a reason and not without reason, from the word "live". In ancient times, it was noticed that if there is an incision on a tree, then a viscous, sticky, almost colorless liquid with a strong coniferous smell comes out of it, which darkens and becomes solid on contact with air.

This solid substance covers the entire surface of the wood "wound" and, as it were, preserves it, protects it from insects, any microorganisms, fungal infections, and it also has the power to protect the wood from destruction. Naturally, over time, seeing what the oleoresin does with the tree, people decided to try this on themselves. useful force. And they were right, because coniferous resin is still used in folk medicine to this day.

resin acids, formic acid, phytoncides, essential oils, volatile substances (monoterpenes - the basis for turpentine), neutral substances (diterpenes, sesquiterpenes), resinolic acids (approximate content from 67% to 70%), resinol, resinotannols (alcohols that carry out the reaction tannins), succinic acid, rubber, also vitamin C, D, fatty acid(up to 0.3%) - lauric, oleic, palmitic, stearic and palmitoleic, and other vegetable impurities.

If you use resin externally, you can achieve the effect of anesthesia, regeneration of the skin and mucous membranes,. You can also treat dental and ENT diseases.

It is able to get rid of skin suppurations, boils, different degrees burns, from heart disease, bronchitis, sciatica, male and female diseases genitourinary system(for example, cystitis), hemorrhoids and colds.

Fir resin, pine and cedar have found the widest application in medicine. Her preparations are made in huge industrial scale. Cedar and fir are the most common in folk medicine, especially in the Siberian and Altai regions of Russia.

Pine resin is harvested in the largest volumes for our regions, which is processed into rosin, turpentine, for the production of camphor, anesthetic, warming rubbing and much more (for technical and medical purposes).

For therapeutic and prophylactic purposes, cedar resin is mainly used, and in a pure state. They make of it medicinal ointments, hygiene products and repellents. All kinds of ointments and balms are made from spruce resin.

Recipes for the treatment of various diseases

You need a powder from frozen resin (keep 30 g in the freezer from 45 minutes to one hour). Pull out the frozen resin, put it in gauze and crush it into powder. Take the powder 3 times a day one hour before meals with water.

For mild kidney disease, take a balm of resin (we take 1 part) and dilute with cedar, sunflower, sesame or olive oil(we take 20 parts). If the treatment is for gastric ulcers and duodenal ulcers, then you need to drink 30 drops of balm on an empty stomach and drink it with water, this should be done three times a day for 30 minutes. before the start of the meal. The course is 10 days to drink, 10 to rest, and so on as much as you need.

Contraindication is intolerance to the body or allergic reactions on live. To prevent this from happening, you just need to check on a small area of ​​​​the body, preferably on the inner elbow bend, the effect of a small amount of resin. If, after 20 hours, redness or itching appears, then naturally, this is a sign of an allergy.

Pine resin (resin) is a special substance that coniferous plants secrete during normal metabolism, and in addition - in case of damage to the bark. After the resin reacts with oxygen, it oxidizes and becomes resistant to mechanical stress. Gum, which contains pine and cedar (a tree of Siberia) is a healing component of many tinctures and decoctions that are actively used by traditional medicine.

Description

Pine resin can be collected at any time of the year, however, it should be borne in mind that it will be very difficult to do this in the winter months, so it would be much more rational to collect it from May to August, when the most intensive metabolism in plants is observed. Collect in places remote from the roadway. What is most interesting is that it is possible to collect resin in Ukraine only in some areas.

Larch also contains resin - a powerful and safe component of therapy. various diseases, but it can only be used if collected in the summer and in a dry year. Cedar turpentine, which is specially extracted, must also be obtained only from such a resin. It is not recommended to receive it at other times, this principle has been observed for more than one century. However, it will still be easier to buy ready-made resin in a pharmacy or in bulk, its price is not high.

Medicinal properties and indications for use
