From Russian Travnikov* to Tibet Muncks

All this recepts and advices is collected from different places in different times and we think it can be interesting to read about this. Some recepts which comes from old times looks for us dangerous or funny, but we think that some people still uses them. It is interesting to read about this but if you want to use them, you do it with your own responsibility.

1. Strongest medical against Reumatism
If thousands Russian Travniki and thousands Tibet and Mongolian Lame could help their clients from sickness with this medical this can not be bad.
It is not impossible to think that this medical against reumatism is the most strongest and radical medical that there is.

Recept: Take 100 gram roots from Aconite (but not the leaves) and pure 250 centiliter 60% strong medical alcohol, put this for three days in a warm place. When the potion has the color like good prepared tea it is ready to use.

Apply: Before you go to sleep, rub the potion in to the skin on the reumatic place until it is dry and put a compress from 100% flannel around, over the flannel you put textile from 100% wool for keep it warm and for not let in cold air. Take out the compress two hours before you normally wake up (let this part of the body rest from the compress in two hours). After this two hours you take a piece of soft textile and make it wet in cold water, squeeze the textile and clean the place where you had the compress with it. People who have problem with the hart can not use more than one teaspoon a day (this is also the normal doze for everyone). This medical is very strong. Already when you rub the potion inside the skin you will directly feel how quick the blood starts to circulate and the hart start to palpitate, so people use this medical very carefully, for example: if you have reumatic pain in both legs you must only health one leg a day, the same with hands or other parts of the body - in one day you can health only one place on your body. If the reumatism is very painful or the place is swollen you must use the potion in four - five weeks every day before you go to sleep.

Warning: Do not drink this potion, carefully wash your hands after use of it and when you use it, never touch the eyes because you can destroy the eyes. Making exactly how it is writing in this recept, you must even use the right textile. Always remember Aconite is very poison. It can happen that you will have red skin and hurt from this potion, if it happens, do not use the potion until the skin comes back to normal conditions, after this you can continue the treatment. Normally after that you will not get any side-effects again.

About Aconite: The plant is a two meter high grass, the whole plant is very poison, mostly the roots. In cattle-breeding regions it is very dangerous for veals or lambs becase when they eat them they can die, but adult animals do not touch this plant. Normally Aconite grows near rivers and valleys and sometimes on the top of a mountain or on hills with good ventilation. Take the roots in a dry day in June - July, in this time the plant is very poison and you must be very carefully with it.

2. Old Russian Folk Method to treat Reumatism (weak remedy)
Recept: Take 200 gram salt and 100 gram dry mustard and mix with clean kerosene until it have consistens like cream.

Apply: Rub the ointment on the reumatic place before you go to sleep. Use this medical every day until you are healthy.
This remedy is very good for make skin on the hands smooth, it is even better than glycerin or special lotions for hands.
