Pomegranate crusts: good and bad. Treatment of pomegranate crusts

In folk medicine pomegranate crusts are considered to be curative. Benefits and harm to their health are due to many reasons, with which we will try to understand this article. Surprisingly, they lack chemical compounds that can have a tangible effect on the human body. In this case they are used very widely. So, today we will find out why pomegranate crusts are so in demand in non-traditional medicine , the use and harm of which are caused by ridicule of skeptics.

Properties

What properties make them so popular in folk medicine? Most sources are silent about this. Therefore, let's try to analyze by our own forces the chemical composition of this "medicine". The fruit of the pomegranate is at least a quarter of the skin. Pomegranate crusts contain:

• Few vitamins;
• Several trace elements;
• Bioflavonoids;
• Polyphenols;
• Catechins;
• Ellagic acid;
• tannins.

Microelements and vitamins can not exert a strong and rapid effect on the body. So, if pomegranate crusts, the benefits and harm of which cause great doubt, and have medicinal properties, they are associated with some other substances. Catechins, bioflavonoids, polyphenols have an antiparasitic, antioxidant, antimicrobial effect. Anti-inflammatory properties have tannins.

Treatment of diarrhea

In the media and special literature, the health benefits of pomegranate crusts are strongly embellished. For example, some sources say that due to the powerful antimicrobial effect, this remedy can destroy any infection in the digestive tract. The authors of the articles recommend crusts to treat diarrhea without considering the reasons for its appearance.

But diarrhea is just a symptom, not a disease. She has many reasons to appear. So, the treatment should be carried out only after the diagnosis is established. First, you need to find out the cause of diarrhea, and then eliminate it in order to remove all the symptoms. Despite the fact that intestinal infections are the most frequent cause of diarrhea, it is not the only cause .

And if diarrhea is still caused by microorganisms, then the pomegranate skin can not be treated. They, of course, have antimicrobial activity, but not so pronounced as to expect a quick and full recovery. With infections, even antibiotics are not able to cope for one day. What then to say about pomegranate peel? But, according to fans of traditional medicine, they allow you to cure:

• Salmonellosis;
• Dysentery;
• Typhoid fever ;
• Cholera.

In this case, not only cure. There is an opinion that these diseases, from which entire cities have died out at one time, under antimicrobial powerful action, garnet crusts pass for some several hours. Similar effect is not possessed by any modern antibacterial preparation. Most likely, this is an invention. Undoubtedly, a pomegranate can have a fixing effect, but only in an instant it can not destroy the pathogenic flora of the intestine.

Dysbacteriosis

Pomegranate crusts (benefit and harm described in this article) are used to treat not only diarrhea. People with their help try to cope with various diseases. For example, broth from them treat a dysbacteriosis. In this case, fans of alternative medicine themselves contradict themselves. Basically, the cause of dysbiosis is the destruction of antibacterial drugs by the normal intestinal microflora that occurs during the treatment of intestinal infection, pneumonia, etc.

At the same time, most fans of garnet crusts claim that this product has an antimicrobial effect. In other words, it should symptoms of dysbacteriosis only aggravate, inhibiting the growth of intestinal microflora. So why is this not happening?

Pomegranate crusts: useful in combating age-related changes

The use of pomegranate seeds in the complex together with the extract of the peel promotes the rapid synthesis of procollagen, as they say in different thematic articles. Such a protein compound can prevent the activity of enzymes that break down collagen, and also promote rapid cell growth. Therefore, thanks to pomegranate products, you can stop the appearance of wrinkles and the aging process of the skin.

Health of hair and skin

For the health of the hair, pomegranate crusts are also used. Their use has not been scientifically proven. But in folk medicine there is an opinion that they help to fight with hair loss, and also are used for the prevention of dandruff. The zedra of this fruit, along with rose water, is supposedly coping well with acne and acne.

Treatment of pomegranate cortex

In folk medicine, it is possible to treat pomegranate crusts not only with the diseases listed above. They are also used in the pathology of the heart, helminthic invasion, anemia, immunodeficiency, infertility. But is there any sense in their application for such diseases? Cork have antihelminthic activity. Probably, thanks to the antioxidants they contain, they affect the work of the heart positively. But with other pathologies, the treatment with pomegranate crusts is better not to be done.

This remedy will not save you from anemia. Actually, as well as from infertility. Pomegranate crusts on the state of immunity, most likely, also have no effect. Do not use them to fight worms, because for this there is a lot of more effective drugs. And with heart disease, antioxidants are prescribed in tablets. There are more of them there, they are cheaper. In addition, the effect of their use is scientifically confirmed.

Harm to the grenade

Since ancient times, non-traditional medicine uses pomegranate crusts. Benefits and harm from their use are very diverse. If you still decide to try to cure this or that disease with their help, do not forget that you need to be careful with them. So, that there are no problems with the teeth, you need to be careful about the juice of the pomegranate. It can corrode the weakened and thinned enamel, while staining the exposed dentin.

Pomegranate peel: reviews

Comments on the treatment of pomegranate crusts can be found different. Some of them are left by young mothers who treated them for diarrhea in children. And they did it successfully. Not knowing that in young children, diarrhea is often of an exclusively functional nature and passes on its own, regardless of the use of garnet crusts. But mums are calmer if they do something, and do not wait for diarrhea to pass by itself. For their psychological balance, pomegranate peels are certainly useful.

Other girls try to treat them with anemia. They probably believe that if our blood is red, then anemia should be treated with red fruits. At the same time, there are very few iron in the pomegranate cortex, which means that they do not exactly treat anemia. They also try to use them with menopause, PMS and dysbacteriosis. Judging by the numerous reviews, the broth, prepared from crusts, has a disgusting taste. But the girls still accept it, hoping thus to solve their health problems.
