There are many legends and stories about the poisonous properties of this mushroom, but many gourmets like amanita dishes, and this is no joke. If you know all the intricacies of cooking, you can prepare completely edible and absolutely safe dishes from amanita mushrooms. The whole secret is that muscarine – poisonous amanita alkaloid, contained only in the cap, or rather – in the integument. However, it is not worth experimenting with eating fly agaric, but it will be useful to get acquainted with its medicinal properties.
Medicinal use of amanita The use of the red amanita in official medicine is quite limited, first of all, due to the difficulty of cleaning it from poisonous alkaloids. For example, a protein toxin that dissolves red blood cells has been isolated from amanita. Boiling for 40 minutes destroys the poison, but the activity of other alkaloids decreases. The greatest interest for experiments is a specific dye that has high antitumor activity. In contrast to scientific medicine, folk healers quite willingly use amanita in their practice, mostly as external remedies, and only a few dare to recommend preparations from the poisonous mushroom for internal use.
Externally, fly agaric preparations are prescribed for rubbing against joint and rheumatic pains, osteochondrosis, etc. Taking amanita tincture is practiced in the treatment of various tumors of internal organs, diseases of the nervous system and in a number of other cases. Homeopaths most willingly use the healing properties of amanita, preparing the drug "Agaricus muscarius". To make the tincture, the root and cap are used, previously cleaned of the poisonous skin. The homeopathic remedy is prescribed in case of psychosomatic disorders, neurological and mental diseases (epilepsy, muscle spasms, intestinal and bladder spasms, nervous overexcitation), as well as for the treatment of skin rashes associated with diseases of internal organs. From the arsenal of traditional medicine Folk healers have accumulated a wealth of experience in using the medicinal properties of amanita, but unfortunately, scientific medicine is in no hurry to adopt this valuable medicine. Frequent convulsions. Muscle spasms often occur due to disorders of the nervous system, and in this case, a short-term intake of fly agaric tincture often gives a quick therapeutic effect. It is recommended to take the tincture twice a day on an empty stomach (morning and evening), 5 drops of the drug in 100 ml of water. Painful menstruation. Tincture of amanita in the doses indicated above helps to solve the problem of painful menstruation. It is necessary to take the drug every morning until a positive result appears. In the future, the frequency of taking the drug is reduced to once a week. For the purpose of prevention, it is further recommended to take the drug once every month.
Mastopathy. A fly agaric tincture on cognac is popular for the treatment of mastopathy in Western Ukraine. The technology of preparation of this medical preparation is practically no different from the well-known method of obtaining tincture: amanita mushrooms are cut, put in a glass container and poured with cognac. Insist for 14 days, periodically shaking the contents. You need to take “cognac tincture” three times a day, one dessert spoon half an hour before meals. Rheumocardia and rheumatism.

The mixture is poured into a dark glass bottle and infused for two weeks. The drug is used for rubbing. “ Molasses”.

The resulting mixture with alcohol is not mixed, but poured into a glass with dark glass and stored in the refrigerator. “Molace” does not lose its medicinal properties for a long time.
