How Long Does It Take For Melonma To Spead

ointment and Laurel and Ivy

In this post I will talk about two plants that can be found at this time (actually the whole year) in the undergrowth: Laurel (I'm lucky to have the neighbor's yard ... ihihi) and the Ivy.
Entrambe le piante hanno proprietà molto interessanti, l'Edera però, al contrario dell'Alloro, ha anche peculiarità da evitare e nocive per l'essere umano. Vediamole.

L'Alloro
L'infuso di alloro (10 gr in 500 gr di acqua bollente da sorbire 3 volte al giorno) aiuta a combattere astenie, affaticamenti, inappetenze, digestioni difficili, flatulenze, tossi e bronchiti.
Se in dicembre avrete voglia di andare a coglierne le bacche, con esse potrete fare un unguento per i dolori reumatici e articolari.  
Ecco come si fa l'olio da massaggio di bacche d'alloro
Ponete a macerare per una settimana 150/200 grams of bruised berries in 1 liter of olive oil. Once finished steeping, strain and store the oil obtained in dark glass containers in the dark and cool place.

The Ivy The Ivy has a dual personality, excellent for humans, another less. So avoid the black berries that are toxic and only to collect the leaves are used as a decoction ONLY BY EXTERNAL. Boil for 10 minutes 200 grams of fresh leaves in 1 liter of water, let stand the decoction. After having rested use it for outdoor use, such as body wraps, baths and washing in the cao of rheumatism, neuralgia, arthritis, edema and cellulite. Excellent decoction also the hair, makes them more body and shine. However, if the ivy leaves macerated in oil (see recipe dell'Alloro), you can get a good oil for messages against draining water retention.

Prepare an ointment
to obtain 1 kg of ointment used OleOle 900 grams and 100 grams of beeswax.
is heated in a water bath until the OleOle chosen to 60-70 degrees and, in another saucepan, beeswax always a water bath. Once the wax is melted and the OleOle hot, throw in the wax nell'oleolito stirring, then take a small portion and let it cool to prove consistency. Depending on the case, add a mixture OleOle for softer, more wax to get it more solid.
If you like, you can smell the ointment with an essential oil.
Keep the ointment in the dark and cool place.
