Oats in grains useful properties. Treatment with oats at home: how to brew and drink? Oat straw is used to treat

It was in the 90s of the last century. After working in the capital, I returned home to my family. Then something incomprehensible happened - I began to feel that my strength was leaving me. Every day my condition worsened: it seemed that it was not the disease that had happened, but the life was gradually leaving me. My friends Lyudmila and Galina literally took me by the arms, exhausted, to take unction. I say to my father:

- Father, I drank chicken broth during fasting, I didn’t even have the strength to walk around the house.

- Did you see the horse? - the father asks in response. I was stumped by this question. “And here the horse,” I think. And he kind of answers my thoughts:

- The horse is stronger than you, even though you have never eaten chicken broth in your life. Get some oats and drink for three weeks. You will see that with God's help everything will be fine.

And so it happened. By God's blessing and by the father's advice.

Benefit and harm

Enriched with nutrients, vitamins and microelements, oats can be used for the treatment and prevention of many diseases. It is able to restore an organism weakened after an illness and even help in the fight against physical disabilities.

To achieve maximum benefits, experts recommend preparing a decoction of unpeeled oats, because this way more vitamins and nutrients are preserved. Oat broth, due to the content of biologically active substances, has a positive effect on the body, namely:

It improves the duration and quality of sleep.
Strengthens the entire body.
Improves metabolic processes, has a positive effect on the metabolism of carbohydrates.
Soothes and relaxes.
Removes harmful substances from the body.
Raises immunity.
Strengthens the walls of blood vessels.
Able to restore the affected mucous membrane.

Despite the enormous benefits that oatmeal brings, it can also harm the human body. This is facilitated by the content of phytin in the cereal. Phytic acid can prevent the growth of oat grains in adverse conditions.

The harm of phytin is that:

Fitin interferes with the absorption of phosphorus by the human orgasm. Phosphorus, as everyone knows, is important for human bone tissue.
Phytic acid simply does not allow important and useful trace elements to be absorbed, and a person does not receive any subsequent benefit from drinking an oatmeal solution.
Phytic acid inhibits the action of digestive enzymes, especially trypsin and pepsin, which are essential for the breakdown of proteins. This means that the digestion of food is disturbed, which causes serious problems with the body.

However, there is an enzyme that breaks down phytin - this is phytase. That is why, when preparing a decoction, it is important to follow certain rules so that oats benefit the entire body, and not harm its individual systems.

Phytin is cleaved by phytase in the case of:

Sprouting is the most effective way to activate the action of phytase.
Soaking - can occur with or without further fermentation.
Roasting - This method is most suitable for coffee beans.

Video: how to make a decoction of oats

Numerous medicinal properties and ease of preparation are the main characteristics due to which the popularity of oatmeal decoction is growing. The benefits and harms of the drink mainly depend on the correctness of its preparation, but many people forget about it. The result of a neglectful attitude to the rules of brewing the healing mass can be serious side effects and a complete lack of therapeutic effects on the body. In order for a drink that has great potential to do no harm, you need to remember just a few recommendations.

Contraindications to the use of decoction of oats

Some supporters of traditional medicine argue that a decoction of oats can be taken by everyone without exception. The practical application of the composition nevertheless made it possible to identify several contraindications to such therapy. Under the following conditions, it is better to refuse the product or at least drink the product with caution:

Gallstones, no gallbladder.
Renal or cardiovascular failure.
Increased acidity of the stomach.
Serious liver pathology.

In these cases, the risks of developing side effects are too high, so you should consult with your doctor before starting treatment. Individual intolerance to the components of the drink is extremely rare, but still, before starting the course, you need to make sure that it is absent.

The harm of oatmeal and how to eliminate it

Oats contain growth inhibitors in their composition, due to which the germination of grains in adverse conditions is impossible. They are represented by phytic acid and its salts. These substances are not unique, they are present in many types of grains, nuts, seeds and beans. When entering the human body, chemical compounds can trigger the following processes:

There is a binding and excretion of valuable minerals (zinc, calcium, iron, copper) from the body. These elements are no longer absorbed in the right amount, which is why deficient states develop.

Tip: Today, oatmeal is available at health food stores. If this is done with a preventive purpose, you can try. If necessary, it is better to carry out treatment on your own. There is no guarantee that a particular establishment sells a properly boiled composition.

The action of enzymes is suppressed, which negatively affects the quality of food digestion. In particular, it disrupts protein metabolism.
Phytic acid prevents the absorption of phosphorus, which is necessary to maintain bone strength.

In fact, phytic acid itself is a valuable source of phosphorus, but it is absorbed only under the influence of the phytase enzyme. Fortunately, scientists have found ways to start the synthesis of this substance in the body. Before you start preparing a decoction of oats, you need to subject the main ingredient to one of the following types of processing:

Soak (with or without further fermentation).
germinate.
Fry. True, this approach is usually applied only to chocolate and coffee beans.

If a decoction of oats is prepared according to all the rules, the potential risks of drinking will be minimized. Violation of the liquid production technology, at best, will lead to a useless product, at worst, a variant of the development of the scenarios described above is possible.

The benefits of oatmeal and its medicinal properties

A healing decoction or oatmeal jelly prepared on its basis has several types of positive effects on the human body at once. In general, it is much easier to list diseases from which the product does not save. Here, for example, are the most striking properties of the drink:

Soluble fiber in the composition of the decoction has enveloping properties. After entering the stomach, it passes into a state of a substance similar to jelly. This mass covers the walls of the organ, reducing the irritating effect of food on the mucous membrane. Regular use of the composition significantly alleviates the condition of people with gastritis and peptic ulcer.
Due to the presence of inulin in the composition, drinking reduces the likelihood of spikes in blood sugar.
Narcologists recommend a decoction and infusion of oats to people who are trying to overcome nicotine, drug and alcohol addiction.
The use of the product has a calming effect. Large amounts of B vitamins help improve sleep and eliminate signs of depression.
The healing broth contains tryptophan, which stimulates the growth of muscle tissue. This property of the drink allows it to be included in the nutrition of athletes.
The positive effect of oatmeal is noticeable with colds, acute respiratory infections, pneumonia and coughs. But in this case, you should use a composition prepared in milk, and not in water.

The abundance of soluble fiber helps to cleanse the body. Toxins and salts of heavy metals are removed from the body. This property of the product can be used for poisoning, after chemotherapy.
A decoction of oats cleans the blood of bad cholesterol, which has a positive effect on the functionality of the cardiovascular system.
The product rich in trace elements removes excess fluid from the body, which helps to cope with edema.
A natural remedy contributes to the normalization of metabolism, so it can be used for weight loss. You just need to remember that they include it in diets to reduce appetite, and not to burn fat.
Do not forget about the anti-aging properties of the composition. Its components stimulate the processes of cell division, against which active tissue regeneration occurs.

One of the added benefits of oats is the fact that they are gluten-free. It can be safely introduced into your diet by people with intolerance to the substance.

Rules and recipes for making a decoction of oats

A useful and safe decoction of oats can only be obtained if phytin is split. For this purpose, you can use the option of soaking the workpiece, but nutritionists consider it not the most successful. Studies have shown that even after 12 hours of soaking, the cereal still contains about 75% phytin. It is better to resort to the fermentation of the product or its germination.

The preparation of oatmeal from fermented grains will look like this:

We take a glass of oats along with the husk, fill it with whey, which remains after boiling the cottage cheese. The liquid should be 2 times larger than the thick part in volume, because the grains will swell.

Tip: You can use more than just whey to ferment oats. If the composition is not at hand, use a solution of lemon juice or apple cider vinegar. For their preparation, 1 teaspoon of the product is used per 1 liter of water.

The workpiece must be kept for about 12-14 hours in a warm place until the grains swell. This is a signal that you can start preparing the broth.
Drain the liquid, wash the grains in a colander. We act carefully, trying not to wash off the husk. All this is poured into 1 liter of water and put on fire.
After 2 hours of languishing on low heat, the liquid must be drained and diluted with drinking or boiled water. The result should be 1 liter of oatmeal broth. It is recommended to drink it in a couple of days.

To prepare a decoction of oats from sprouted grains, you need to do the following:

Soak the grains of oats in water for 12 hours, after which the liquid is drained.
We lay the blanks on a damp gauze and place in a warm place. You need to wait until the grains hatch. Do not keep oats until sprouts form.
We transfer the hatched grains to a blender, fill it with water so that it only slightly covers the mass. For taste, you can add a little honey.
The mass must be crushed. It should become smooth, smoothie-like. The product prepared in this way should be drunk during the day, it is not stored longer.

It is generally incorrect to call a drink prepared according to the latter method a decoction, because oats are not subjected to heat treatment. It is in the course of such an impact that it is possible to obtain the most useful folk remedy.

In cases where a decoction of oats is planned to be taken in order to obtain a therapeutic effect, the dosage, schedule and duration of the course should be agreed with the specialized doctor. If this is done for prevention or general strengthening of the body, the composition can be drunk like regular tea. Standard rules recommend consuming a mass of 100 ml half an hour before a meal.

Oatmeal broth can be given to children not only for colds. The healing agent copes with the manifestations of diathesis and food allergies. With these diagnoses, the duration of treatment should be 1 month. The schedule will depend on the age of the small patient:

From 6 to 12 months, 1 teaspoon is enough in the morning before breakfast and in the evening before bedtime.
Up to 2 years, you can give your baby already 1 tablespoon twice a day.
Up to 5 years, the daily portion is a third of a glass in two divided doses per day.
Up to 10 years, the daily portion is already half a glass in two divided doses per day.

The natural remedy does not cause addiction, therefore, if desired, it can be taken regularly, taking breaks only from time to time. A decoction of oats is not recommended to be combined with coffee or black tea. These drinks reduce the quality of assimilation of a number of substances in the composition of the medicinal product. Ready-made broth is best drunk a little warm, and it should be stored in the refrigerator for no more than 1-2 days.

A decoction of oats, as an "ambulance" for pancreatitis

Many people have personally appreciated the effectiveness of oatmeal in the period of exacerbation of pancreatitis. Of course, it is enough just to drink the liquid according to the described scheme, but it is better to carry out a whole range of therapeutic measures.

On the first day, you should refuse to eat. With a strong attack, there is still no desire.
Drink warm water throughout the day.
Instead of the usual breakfast, lunch and dinner, you need to use a decoction of oats and an infusion of flaxseeds.
It is better to replace tea with an infusion of St. John's wort with the addition of a small amount of honey.
The second and third day the diet is repeated. Only oatmeal porridge infused with water (and not boiled with milk) is added to oatmeal broth and flaxseed infusion.
All this time, it is recommended to additionally drink phytocomplexes in consultation with the doctor.
From the fourth day, other foods can be introduced into the diet, but decoctions and infusions should be continued to be drunk for 10 days. Oatmeal broth is allowed to be consumed up to 30 days, i.e. until full recovery.

Oatmeal broth will only become healthier and tastier if flavor enhancers such as raisins, rosehip or hawthorn infusion, honey are added during its manufacture. By replacing boiling water with milk, we get an excellent remedy for colds, which is allowed to be taken even in childhood.
