If there are few vitamins in the body
When there is a lack of vitamin C in our body, in other words, ascorbic acid, a disease such as scurvy occurs. They mostly get sick during starvation and long voyages. When this disease occurs, you may notice tooth loss, the appearance of a rash on the body, lips, nose, ears turn blue, gums swell and bleed, and so on. The internal signs of this disease include: loss of muscle strength, rapid fatigue, dizziness, drowsiness, as well as internal hemorrhage, gastrointestinal disorders, and so on. The body's own resistance is lousy.
Vitamin C can be replenished with plants, berries, raw vegetables and fruits. Even doctors use this particular vitamin in the treatment of atherosclerosis, gastrointestinal diseases, certain feminine ailments, and so on.
There are several folk recipes for the treatment of scurvy. There are two types of rosehip cooking: 1) Take 20 grams of dried rose hips and pour 0.5 liters of boiling water. Place on the stove (cover with a lid) and bring to a boil, simmer for 10 minutes. Then let it stand in a warm place for 4-6 hours. Then strain it. For flavor, you can add natural honey or sugar. Store in the refrigerator, but not more than two days. Take 0.5 cups three times a day before meals. 2) In the evening, take 40 grams of dried rose hips (10 grams per day will be enough) and rinse thoroughly in cold water. Then pour one liter of boiling water. Let it stand for 8-10 hours. The next morning, drink a glass of the prepared infusion. The course of treatment is until you fully recover. Or in winter, take 4 cups of pine needles, two teaspoons of diluted medical hydrochloric acid and pour everything with three cups of cooled boiled water. Let it stand in a dark place for three days. Then strain it. You can add something sweet to taste it. Take 0.5 cups twice a day. When the berry season comes, eat plenty of wild strawberries. Use black currants to make the infusion. Take two tablespoons of berries and pour two cups of boiling water. Let it stand for one hour. After that, you can drink throughout the day.
And with a lack of vitamin A (mainly, it is not enough in the spring), a visual disorder occurs, manifested in the inability to see well at dusk and at night, in low light; the color perception of yellow and blue colors decreases. These are signs of a disease such as chicken blindness. As a result, there is dry skin, rash, hair becomes dry and begins to fall out. In rare cases, such a disease occurs with anemia, pregnancy, and exhaustion of the body.
Vitamin A is found in animal products; from meat products, it is found in pork and beef liver. Some plants contain provitamin A – carotene, which, when ingested, transforms into essential vitamin A. It is this vitamin that also contributes to the normal condition of the skin and mucous membrane, and the development of a young body.
To treat and prevent chicken blindness, eat spinach, green onions, carrots, apricots, gooseberries, dairy products, millet porridge, chicken eggs, sea fish, and more. Speel Huff n more Puff en win mooie prijzen.
