A decoction of dill seed stops colic in babies, helps with cystitis and flatulence, relieves attacks of angina pectoris, and is also used for cosmetic compresses and washes. It is easy to prepare it at home from raw materials purchased from a pharmacy or collected by yourself.
Instructions
Step 1
Appreciate the freshness and quality of the purchased seeds. The brighter they are, the more saturated the infusion will turn out. Staying seeds become gray and lose their shine. However, they are quite suitable for making a decoction. But raw materials that are affected by mold or include foreign inclusions are best discarded - they can be hazardous to health.
Step 2
Fresh dill infusion helps to remove excess gas from the intestines of babies and relieves colic. For treatment, brew a teaspoon of dry raw materials with a glass of boiling water. Insist under a lid or in a thermos for an hour. Strain the finished infusion and give it to the child. A hand-made broth acts more gently than dill water purchased at a pharmacy.
Step 3
Dill seed infusion heals not only babies but also adults. True, they will need a higher concentration. To get rid of flatulence, pour 2 teaspoons of dill seeds with a glass of boiling water. Close the container with a lid and leave for an hour. Take a third of a glass of the finished infusion three times a day half an hour before meals.
Step 4
Dill also helps with cystitis. Grind the seeds in a coffee grinder, turning them into flour. Pour a teaspoon of raw materials into a thermos, pour a glass of boiling water and leave the mixture for an hour and a half. Drink the infusion together with the sediment for seven days in a row, preferably in the morning, on an empty stomach. There should be significant improvement in a week.
Step 5
Try dill for insomnia. Pour a teaspoon of dry seeds with a glass of boiling water, leave for about 40 minutes, strain. Mix 2 tablespoons of the finished broth with a teaspoon of honey and drink the mixture overnight.
Step 6
A decoction of dill seeds is also used for cosmetic purposes - it is used for compresses and washes for aging skin of the face and neck. Pour a tablespoon of seeds with a glass of water, place on the stove and boil for about 2 minutes. Insist the broth under the lid for half an hour, strain and wash with it in the morning and evening.
