Plum - medicinal recipes.

An ordinary fruit such as plum has a very wide range of health-promoting properties. Raw plums are a wide range of trace elements and vitamins, but they are not the only ones that make Plum a fruit of health. The plum pulp contains substances that are extremely useful for the digestive tract - pectins. These substances contribute to a more gentle transportation of food components and their easy disposal. The skin of the Plum is a fiber that works together with the pulp - it stimulates intestinal motility even in hopeless cases. Plum contains many useful sugars that do not harm the body even in cases of metabolic disorders associated with insulin production or problems with glucose absorption.

What diseases is Plum useful for? A very wide range of diseases can be corrected by regularly introducing Plum and its derivatives into your diet. These are practically all diseases of the gastrointestinal tract associated with inflammatory processes, constipation, disorders of the innervation of the intestinal wall, as well as diseases:

associated with abnormal growths inside the intestinal lumen (polyps, tumors);
associated with excess weight, in which people tend to quickly evacuate food from the gastrointestinal tract;
associated with vitamin deficiencies and impaired absorption of substances by the intestinal walls;
associated with problem skin, when it is important to consume foods that are quickly digested and do not create stagnation in the intestines.

Plum can be prepared and introduced into the diet for bedridden patients, postoperative patients with abdominal and pelvic surgery, and for patients with nutritional problems as a result of resection of the small intestine or colon.

Plum is very easy to cook for dietary dishes - it is easily peeled, easily stored, does not lose its properties when frozen and thawed, and, most importantly, it has a lot of advantages even in dishes that are not too sophisticated and complex preparation. A different flavor palette of different types of Plums allows you to maneuver the Plum processing technique and get a very diverse range of dishes for medical and dietary nutrition.

Plum is one of those food products that are good in cooking and baking, and in cooking, and in gelling, and in many other culinary processing methods that you can only imagine. Plum is combined in its taste with all food products and in case of loss of appetite, its taste can stimulate a sick person to eat.

For some types of diseases, a categorical cleaning of the plum from the skin is required, for example, with acute colitis, with gastritis, with diarrhea, with incontinence of the anal sphincter, so that the skin does not injure the intestinal mucosa. But even in these cases, the very pulp of the Plum will benefit the sick person.

To cleanse the intestines and the body as a whole, there is no need to starve - the Plum will help to carry out such a cleansing without any additional funds.

How to quickly peel plum from the skin? Divide the fruit into two halves, put in a colander and dip in boiling water for a few seconds, cool the fruit to a temperature at which you can touch it, pry the edge of the skin with a knife and peel it off the Plum like a shell. In the same way, you can remove the skin from the whole Plum, if you do not divide it in half, just make an incision in the skin before holding it in boiling water.

In order to clean a lot of Drains at the same time, wash the Plums, cut the skins on the plums, put them in a three-liter jar and fill them with boiling water so that the Plums are completely immersed in it, cover with a lid (not tightly) and leave to cool. When the boiling water has cooled completely, drain it and sand each plum as described above.

Plum pulp creates a nutrient medium in the intestines for the reproduction of beneficial microflora, which has a good effect not only on the work of the gastrointestinal tract, but also on the state of the immune system as a whole.

Plum, like a dried fruit, is very useful for people with lazy bowels or chronic constipation, but if constipation and disturbances of peristalsis are the result of inflammation in the intestines, then it is better to use Plum as a dried fruit boiled or soak for two hours in boiling water to dry and hard the fruit was able to soak in water and become softer and not traumatic for nutrition.

Decoctions from Plum are useful or rather from plum skins or decoctions from plums with skins for many diseases. Such decoctions are useful in case of a lack of trace elements, since plum peel accumulates many useful natural components during the growth of the fruit. Plum peel decoctions can be used as teas or chilled fruit drinks. Boiled plum pulp is added to the fruit drink, rubbing it through a fine colander, sieve or fine grater. Such fruit drinks and teas are useful for those who cannot eat Plum with the skin due to some diseases.

Plum satisfies the feeling of hunger well, which is very convenient for people who are on a diet or have deliberately reduced the volume of their diet. For such purposes, you can sand half a kilogram of fresh Plums in the above way and, when hunger aggravates, eat the fruit. The pectin contained in Plums has a tendency to swell and create the illusion of a fullness of the intestine or stomach. If you want to arrange a few fasting days for yourself, prepare fresh Plums (sand them) and add one or two Plums to the scanty portions of those dishes that are left for food, depending on the portion and size of the Plums.

The pulp of fresh Plums goes well with all breads and baked goods (you can make a simple sandwich with halved plums), or eat Plums without the skin in a bite with bread. Cheese and Plum are ideally combined in their taste (this applies equally to sweet and salty cheeses). A sandwich made from rye bread (or loaf, biscuits), spread with the pulp of raw Plum is already a healing sandwich.

If there are dried plum fruits in the house, go to a tea party with their participation - just brew with boiling water not tea leaves, but a few dried plum fruits (you can also eat the softened dried fruits later).

Fresh Plum pulp puree, ground in a blender with any kind of nuts, is both a dessert and a remedy at the same time. This puree can be used as a paste and spread on a bread or bun for a snack, which is much healthier than sausage or other smoked meats. If you are tired of eating a dietary boiled or steamed breast, make yourself a salad from such a breast and the pulp of fresh plums - this is both a dietary and a healing dish at the same time. Plum is an excellent ally of any meat dishes, and the most pleasant thing is that when the proportions of the meat and plum components in the meat dish change in the direction of increasing the amount of spices!).

If it is necessary to limit the consumption of meat products for a diet or medical diet, eat a side dish with slices of fresh peeled Plum. It tastes well with rice, oatmeal, semolina porridge, buckwheat porridge, barley porridge, barley and millet, as well as pasta.

Plum dessert is a minimum in calories and maximum health benefits. For dessert, both raw Plum are suitable, and scalded with boiling water or boiled (for people who are contraindicated in eating raw plant foods). For dessert, plum can be grinded in a meat grinder with a large perforation of the disc, if required by the conditions of product consumption. Plums can be jellied to make perfect cakes and cakes, fruit terrines or a cream substitute for eating. The most successful sweets for almost all types of diseases or diets associated with sports or weight loss are sweets with dried plum fruit filling and chocolate coating. Pancakes stuffed with plum pulp are both a dessert and a complete dish for breakfast, lunch or dinner.

For the preparation of any types of medical and dietary dishes, sugar is not added to the Plum - those natural sugars that the Plum fruits managed to accumulate during their growth and ripening are enough. These sugars will not cause hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia, or cause excess weight.

The best flavor combinations Plums in salads, casseroles, when stewing meat with vegetables, occur in the company of Plums with such vegetables as: tomatoes, aubergine, carrots, beets, potatoes, legumes. The best companions for pickling and souring plums: cabbage, carrots, zucchini, squash, vegetable peppers, apples, pears, quince, apricots, figs, grapes, black currants, blueberries, blackberries.

If the medicinal herbal decoction has an unpleasant taste, add Plum to it while infusing the decoction, and the taste of the medicinal drink will become not only acceptable, but even pleasant. And the effect of the action of the herbal decoction will not change for the worse, but, on the contrary, will solve other health problems as a side effect.

Diseases for which you should not get carried away with Plums are usually associated with high acidity (excessive secretion of hydrochloric acid into the stomach) or with acute inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract mucosa or its injuries (erosions), but in such cases, you can’t refuse to use Plums, but choose more sweet variety of Plum and thermally process its pulp.

Plum is an off-season medicinal fruit and a very affordable remedy for improving the body.
