Chanterelle tincture: recipes, use and contraindications

Until recently, official medicine did not recognize the medicinal properties of mushrooms. Today, their actions are studied, researched and actively used in the treatment of diseases. Chinese biochemists were the first to discover chemical substances in representatives of the Chanterelle family that can destroy helminths. Chanterelle tincture has gained wide popularity due to its effect on the body, availability and ease of preparation.

The healing properties of chanterelle tincture

The benefits of mushroom tinctures are determined by their chemical composition. Scientists have come to the conclusion that chanterelles can have a detrimental effect on helminths. The reason for this is not the poison at all, but the polysaccharide quinomannose, which destroys both helminth eggs and adults without harming humans.

Chanterelles contain beta-glucans, which can activate the functioning of immune cells.

Ergosterol is also found in these mushrooms. The uniqueness of this component is that, based on interaction with enzymes, it is able to restore liver function. Trametonolinic acid, as well as K-10 polysaccharide, also have healing potential in this regard.

Currently, powders and extracts are produced from representatives of Chanterelles. The most widely used treatment is chanterelle tincture, which gives a positive result in the process of destroying parasites and improving the health of the entire body.
