Description

 The invention relates to medicine, namely to the creation of tea collections from medicinal plants.

 Tea collection is known from the prior art (Home pantry, M. ed. Sunday, 1992, p. 397 [1]), containing dried and ground: blackcurrant leaf (10 g), lingonberry leaf (10 g ), a leaf of raspberry ordinary (10 g), fruits of May hips (10 g). This collection is among the vitamin.

 The disadvantage of this tea collection is that it has low anti-stress activity.

 Also known is the tea collection "Bergovaron" from medicinal plants (see RF patent N 2045277, class A 61 K 35/78, 1995 [2]), taken as a prototype and containing a sheet of black currant (0.8 - 1.2 ), a leaf of lingonberry vulgaris (0.4 - 0.6), a leaf of frangipani (0.8 - 1.2), a leaf of dioica nettle (0.7 - 0.9), cinnamon rose hips (1.8 - 2 , 2) and water (the rest in wt.%). The known collection has a tonic effect and (according to the data cited by the authors) increases the survival of mice after hypoxic injury.

 A disadvantage of the known tea collection is that it has a low anti-stress activity, since it does not provide a general strengthening effect on the human body.

 The basis of the invention is the task of creating a tea collection with such a combination of components in their quantitative ratio, which would provide high anti-stress activity of the drink.

The problem is solved in that the tea collection containing dried and crushed medicinal raw materials, including blackcurrant leaf, common lingonberry leaf and frankincense leaf, according to the invention further comprises a common blueberry leaf, common blueberry leaf, Icelandic cetra thallus, black drop leaf and berry. and a sheet of golden rhododendron in the following ratio of components, parts by weight:
black currant leaf - 12 - 13
common lingonberry leaf - 11 - 14
blueberry leaf - 11 - 14
blueberry leaf - 20 - 22
leaf of frankincense - 10 - 15
thalli of Icelandic cetraria - 11-14
black drop leaf and berries - 12 - 13
golden rhododendron leaf - 5 - 7
The advantage of the proposed collection over the known one is that it has greater anti-stress activity due to a more pronounced positive effect on the functions of the central nervous system, normalization of blood sugar, normalization of the heart and lungs, a positive effect on the walls of blood vessels, and increased blood circulation especially limbs, quick resolution of inflammatory processes and improvement of metabolic processes, and as a result, an increase in mental and physical performance.

 The invention is further explained in the description of the plants used and the formulation of the tea drink.

 Black currant - Ribes nigrum L. - shrub, leaves are bare above, pubescent, three-, five-lobed, fragrant on the veins below. Leaves are harvested in June - July, dried in the shade.

 Currant leaves contain mainly essential oil, flavonoid rutin, tannins, vitamin C. Tea from dried leaves is used as a diaphoretic, for colds, rheumatism, inflammation of the ureters, indigestion, whooping cough and diarrhea (D. Lanska, From the forest and garden from spring to winter, M., Profizdat, 1989, pp. 173 - 174 [3]).

 Lingonberry vulgaris - Vaccinium vitis - idaea L. - a small shrub. For a long time, lingonberry leaf containing biologically active substances - arbutin, flavonoids, tannins and organic acids, sugars, vitamins, anthocyanins, has been used as a medicinal raw material in medicine. Cowberry leaf is used in the form of decoctions for kidney stones, rheumatism, gout, and also as a diuretic. In addition, the leaves, like berries, have a disinfectant, anti-inflammatory effect (Encyclopedia of blanks, "Samovar", Bilberry, Brusnik, M., ed. "Continent-press", 1996, p. 8 [4]).

 Blueberries - Vaccinium myrtillus L. - a small shrub with leathery ovoid leaves and single or paired greenish-white with a pink tinge of flowers. Blueberry leaves contain tannins, organic acids (including ascorbic acid), essential oil and glycosides neomyrtillin, ericoline, arbutin. Leaves are used in the preparation of rinse solutions; tea from them is used to maintain the action of drugs in diabetes (3 p. 153).

 Blueberry - Vaccinium uliginosum L. - low shrub with a bluish-waxy coating on the foliage and bluish-black berries. Blueberry leaves of an elliptical shape, bluish-green below, together with shoots and berries, are used as decoctions for diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular diseases ([4], p. 186 - 187).

 The frangipani - Bergenia crassifolia L. - perennial herb with a thick long horizontal rhizome: the stems are thick, leafless. The basal leaves are collected in a thick rosette, thick leathery, shiny, wintering, widely elliptical or rounded. In the leaves of berry fruit, a high content of tannins, a significant amount of arbutin, vitamin C, volatile, and also a significant amount of manganese, iron and copper were revealed. The “black” leaves of the incense are used to make a dark brown tea substitute (thirst-quenching with the scent of cedar taiga) (Science and Life, N 7, 1978, p. 159 [5]).

 Icelandic cetraria - Cetraria islandica L. - is a lichen of the Parmelia family, with a bushy, erect, and less randomly outstretched thallus with rather compact vertical lobes. Medicinal raw materials are the thalli of the Icelandic cetraria. The thalli of Icelandic cetraria collected in the summer are dried in the sun. Thalli of this plant are part of the chest and stomach charges (teas) (Handbook of medicinal plants. M., Forest industry, 1990, S. 374 - 377 [6]).

 Black waterdrop (shiksha) - Empetrum nigrum L. - a plant with dark brown small branches that creep on the ground. The flowers are small, same-sex, pinkish, dark red or purple with three petals, sessile, axillary. The leaves are evergreen, short, narrow, in the form of needles stick out in all directions. The fruit is a spherical berry with purple juice. Berries vodnikniki well quench thirst, soothe the nervous system, improve metabolism, relieve fatigue. They also use it as an anti-scaling agent (A. A. Koshcheev, Drinks from wild fruits and berries, M., Agropromizdat, 1991, pp. 55-58 [4]).

 Golden Rhododendron - Rhododendron aureum Georgi - evergreen shrub. The leaves are oblong or widely elliptic, tapered tapered to the base. In folk medicine of Siberia, rhododendron leaf infusions have long been used for rheumatism, dropsy, gout, tuberculosis, epilepsy, headaches, and also as a cardiac and diuretic (Medicinal plants of Siberia for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, Novosibirsk, "Science", 1991 ., p. 36 - 38 [8]).

 Despite the popularity of using each of the plants described above for the preparation of tea drinks or decoctions, the proposed combination of components in the composition is new, and with the proposed quantitative ratio of components, the tea drink has not only attractive color and organoleptic properties, but also has a high anti-stress effect, which does not inherent in none of the components included in the composition.

 The proposed ratio of medicinal plants included in the composition is selected experimentally and represents the most appropriate quantitative combination of components (adjusted in accordance with the total number of biologically active substances, as well as taking into account the mutual influence of the components on the treatment effect), which ensures the normalizing effect of the tea drink on the whole body.

 An example of a preferred formulation of a tea beverage.

Harvested according to the standard technology for pharmacological raw materials, dried plant raw materials are separately crushed in mills to the desired size of 0.5 - 3 mm ³ and then mixed in the following weight ratio, g:
blackcurrant leaf - 12.5
lingonberry leaf - 12.5
blueberry leaf - 12.5
blueberry leaf - 20.0
leaf of frankincense - 12.5
thalli of Icelandic cetraria - 12.5
black drop leaf and berries - 12.5
golden rhododendron leaf - 5 - 100
Thoroughly mixed raw materials, if necessary, are packaged in portions of 20 g each in sachets. A portion of the collection (20 g) is poured into 0.4 liters of boiling water, and then insisted for 4 - 8 hours in a thermos. Take 150-200 g two to three times a day before meals.

From the above plant materials can be prepared options for a tea drink in the following ratio of ingredients, parts by weight:
black currant leaf - 12 - 13
common lingonberry leaf - 11 - 14
blueberry leaf - 11 - 14
blueberry leaf - 20 - 22
leaf of frankincense - 10 - 15
thalli of Icelandic cetraria - 11-14
black waterdrop leaf and berries - 12 - 13
golden rhododendron leaf - 5 - 7
Variants of a tea drink obtained with the above boundary values of the ingredients slightly differ from the preferred option in terms of aroma and taste, but to the extent that it is difficult to judge with certainty without direct comparison with the preferred option.

 Going beyond the above boundary values of the ingredients worsens the drink, which acquires not only the smell of the individual ingredients included in it, but also reduces the therapeutic effect.

 The proposed collection passed a four-year test at the International Brass Academy of Traditional and Tibetan Medicine and showed its high efficiency, including as an additional tool along with other methods of treatment, for example, reflex-correcting therapy.
