Beaver jet - reviews on the fringes of fantasy

The most common question asked by ignorant people at the mention of a beaver jet is what it is. The first thing that comes to mind: a beaver jet is a beaver's urine. Naturally, none of this is urine. The beaver jet is produced by the gland, or rather by the glands, since they are paired. They are present both in females and in males of the beaver. The glands look like two paired sacs weighing about 150 grams. Contain an oily liquid, similar to a bright orange resin. The smell of this liquid is strong, a bit like the smell of tar. In air, the color of the liquid changes, at first it becomes less saturated, and when it dries darkens. This is the jet of the beaver. The researchers' comments indicate that even after drying, the medicinal properties of the beaver jet not only do not disappear, but do not even worsen.

The most complete study of the composition and properties of the beaver jet was carried out by French scientists. In the course of the study, they found about 50 bioactive components in the composition of castoreum (which is officially called the beaver jet), which contain numerous organic acids, amines, ethers and alcohols. Figuratively speaking, the iron that produces the beaver jet represents a huge laboratory in which simultaneous synthesis of various biologically active substances is carried out. To create such a laboratory humanity is not able even today, and nature coped with this matter millions of years ago. True, only in a single copy, since the jet of the beaver, the treatment of which brings such a grandiose effect, is unique in its composition and properties. The only substance, more or less close in composition and medicinal effect to castoreum, is produced by musk gland of musk deer.

It is not known who first thought of using a beaver jet as a medicine, you can only safely say that it happened a very long time. And for the past centuries, folk medicine has accumulated enough knowledge about the properties that has a jet of beaver, the application of which is so diverse that it is even hard to believe.

Official medicine only recently drew attention to a drug so popular among folk remedies, such as castoreum, or a beaver stream, whose reviews are characterized by a rare persistence. Folk, unofficial medicine with this remedy has long and successfully treated a wide variety of diseases. There are cases when, with the help of a beaver jet, patients were raised to their feet, from which graduated doctors simply refused, recognizing their impotence.

Although, strictly speaking, a beaver jet is by no means a medicine in the literal sense of the word. It does not heal. It raises the vital tone of the body so that it (the body) itself cope with any disease. In other words, the body begins to function in the optimal mode, that is, it becomes absolutely healthy.

Despite widely conducted studies, scientists have not been able to give a single conclusion about why the beaver's jet possesses such a powerful healing effect. Reviews of researchers also do not give a complete picture. The most plausible explanation of the properties of castoreum is this: the beaver diet includes many medicinal plants, and it is in their glands that they postpone the most useful substances in the event of any cataclysms.

Use a beaver jet in both fresh and dried form. From it make ointments, powders, decoctions, tinctures, poultices, tablets and masks. With many diseases, ranging from sexual impotence and ending with banal hysteria or even epilepsy, a jet of beaver helps. Reviews even say that complex fractures of bones against the background of its application were cured in just a couple of weeks.
