Having anti-inflammatory, antiseptic and antibiotic properties in the urinary tract, thorns can be used in the treatment of prostate diseases. The plant also benefits the kidneys and thyroid.
Thorn (Xanthium spinosum), popularly known as cholera, is a plant with a branched stem, full of thorns. You can harvest it from June to October, carefully, because the thorns penetrate deep into the skin and are difficult to remove.
Wear protective gloves. Only the aerial part of the plant is used for therapeutic purposes, more precisely the stem, which contains valuable compounds (essential oil, fatty acid salts, calcium and potassium, caffeic acid, chlorogenic acid, flavonoids, phytosterols, saponins, tannins). The dried stem has diuretic, disinfectant, healing and anti-inflammatory action.
Cure with tea, beneficial in the long run
Spine remedies can help treat prostate disease and kidney stones (if the stones are no bigger than a peppercorn), gallstones and hyperthyroidism. Also, local washes with thorn infusion (2 teaspoons of dried and chopped herbs in 1 large cup of boiling water) treat hemorrhoids.
In case you didn’t know, thorn extract is an effective alternative to chestnut, recommended in the treatment of varicose veins. Ruscogenis, a compound of thorns, helps maintain collagen in the walls of blood vessels, improving circulation.
A long-term thorny tea treatment is recommended, from 6 to 18 months, depending on the condition and the doctor’s specifications. To prepare this tea, boil 1 cup of water, and when it boils add 1 tablespoon of dried herbs and leave the composition on low heat for another 10 minutes. Drink tea half an hour before meals.
