Podmore on vodka – preparation and use of tincture

Beekeeping products have long been used in folk medicine for the prevention and treatment of many diseases, but not everyone knows that dead bees can also be beneficial. We are talking about bees that died a natural death, and not from diseases or poisoning with pesticides, preparations for disinfecting hives.

Dead bees collected in the fall or spring in the hives – this is the so-called subpestilence. Raw materials harvested in the fall contain more nutrients than those harvested immediately after a hungry winter period. Medicinal powders, decoctions, tinctures and ointments are made from dead bees. Each type of drug has its purpose and method of application. The most popular tincture of dead bees on vodka or alcohol.

Useful substances of bee subpestilence

Podmore contains bee venom and the same chemical compounds as in propolis, collected pollen, nectar, bee bread, royal jelly and honey. However, the most valuable thing in the small body of a dead bee is a protective chitinous cover, which contains many healing substances:

• chitosan, which promotes pain relief, rapid healing of damaged skin and stopping bleeding. The compound accelerates the detoxification of the body and normalizes digestion;
• Melanin is the pigment responsible for the color of the skin, hair and iris. Melanins serve as strong antioxidants and protect the skin from the harmful effects of ultraviolet radiation and the accumulation of radionuclides;
• Glucosamine is a substance found in intra-articular fluid. It is included in the composition of drugs that restore cartilage tissue;
• heparin is an anticoagulant that prevents rapid blood clotting. It saves from the formation of blood clots, improves the patency of veins and arteries, reduces the risk of strokes and heart attacks.

Preparation and storage of raw materials

Podmor can be purchased at the apiary, in specialized stores selling beekeeping products, on the market or in a pharmacy (ready-made powder). For the preparation of medicines, only high-quality raw materials are used without mold and signs of decomposition.

After collecting dead bees from the ground or from hives, the raw material needs primary processing:

1. Podmore is sifted through a colander from garbage.
2. It is better to dry the raw materials in the oven (at a temperature of 40-50 ºС) or on the grate above the heater.
3. Store dry podmore, so that dampness and mold do not appear, should be in bags made of natural fabric in a ventilated area or in the freezer of the refrigerator.
4. Before preparing the drug, dead bees are crushed in a mortar. The dead bee has a specific smell, so it is better to allocate a separate mortar for it. The use of a coffee grinder is undesirable; contact of biologically active substances with metal should not be allowed.

From 200 ml (glass) of dry bees, after grinding, 2 tablespoons of the powder used to prepare the medicine is obtained.
