AIR
Probably, more than one of us, having tasted ayir reed, still calls it common flatbread, Tatar potion, irnitsa, etc. (айр болотный, Acorus calamus), thought: "Oh, and this potion is bitter." Many people do not want to use this root for this reason. And they don't think about how much bitterness a person needs. Although everyone is well aware that there are four flavors: salty (we always salt our food), sour (we also use it often),sweet (we often end breakfast, lunch, and dinner with sweets) and bitter.

Let's remember when we eat bitter? Most will obviously say: "Never". Then let's think, how does the liver work, how to produce bile, the most bitter substance in the body, when there is nowhere to get bitterness? How to work the stomach without bitterness? After all, sweets relax it (stomach), worsen appetite and digestion, and bitterness tones, adjusts the functions of the stomach and pancreas. And thanks to the bitterness, the intestine works normally, copes well with its function, there is no constipation or diarrhea. So, as we can see, bitter ryegrass helps the liver, pancreas, stomach, and intestines to work well. It also treats the spleen.

The rhizome of ayru treats gastritis, inflammatory processes in the stomach, and also regulates acidity.

It is especially useful in case of hypoacid gastritis (inflammatory processes in the stomach with low acidity). In addition, ryegrass eliminates painful attacks in the intestines, that is, colic, promotes the passage of wind from the intestines, works as an antidiarrheal. Therefore, it is used to treat atonic dyspepsia, chronic catarrh of the stomach, atrophic gastritis.

Powder from the rhizome of yarrow is part of the preparations for the treatment of gastric and duodenal ulcers, and yarrow oil is included in the preparations for urolithiasis and gallstone disease.

Airwort not only eliminates inflammatory processes, but also removes stones from the gall bladder and kidneys.

In folk medicine, buckwheat was studied and researched very actively, it was tested in the treatment of many diseases. For example, this plant was used before epidemics. In this way, typhus and cholera were prevented - after all, watercress is one of the best remedies for infectious diseases. When an epidemic of influenza was approaching, they chewed the root of ayru.
