Chokeberry and pressure

Does mountain ash raise or lower blood pressure? These fruits are very useful for the work of the cardiovascular system. They are able to change the rheological properties of blood, and are effective for impaired coagulation. This plant is still effective in atherosclerosis, since its action is aimed at reducing the amount of "harmful" cholesterol in the blood. Consequently, the vessels are cleared of atherosclerotic plaques. In view of this, chokeberry is used for hypertension.

The decongestant effect of mountain ash is due to its pronounced diuretic effect. It also helps lower blood pressure. In addition, with the use of chokeberry, the blood vessels are strengthened. They become elastic and their permeability decreases.

Rowan fruits are also known as a remedy that relieves spasms. This also applies to vasospasm, which helps with hypertension, as well as spasms of other body tissues, which brings severe discomfort and pain.

For people with hypotension, chokeberry can also be taken, as it effectively affects their health due to such a large list of vitamins and minerals. The fruits of the chokeberry are able to slightly increase blood pressure, it all depends on the characteristics of the organism.

It is impossible to decide exactly whether a given plant increases or decreases blood pressure. It is able to bring the indicators back to normal. Despite this, hypotensive patients still need to carefully use rowan.

Rowan rules

It is not enough to know the recipes for means with black rowan. First you need to properly collect them. Berries are richer in nutrients in the autumn, namely in the second half.

It is recommended to collect it at the end of October, better after the first frosts have already been.

During this period, the taste of the berries is most pronounced.

For the berries to be healthy, they also need to be properly preserved:

• The first way is freezing. First you need to rinse and dry the fruits separated from the branches. For the freezing process, lay out all the berries in one layer. So they should freeze evenly. Only then can they be poured into bags or containers.
• The second way is to dry the berries. It is better to do this under the influence of sunlight, but you can also dry it in the oven, only so that the temperature does not exceed 60⁰WITH.

It is also necessary to dry the berries in the oven correctly, since otherwise there will be no benefit from these berries. To begin with, the temperature in the oven should not exceed 40⁰C, and then gradually you need to increase it to 60⁰C. In this case, you need to carefully monitor the color and, in general, the state of the berries. They should not change color to brown or red. If the color has changed, then this is direct evidence that there are no nutrients in mountain ash anymore. Properly dried berries do not change, and when squeezed, juice will not be released from them.

These methods are needed to prepare berries for future use. During the period when the berries are ripe, they can still be eaten fresh. In this case, a person will receive the maximum benefit from the berries.
