What are the healing properties of anise lofant? Anise lofant: medicinal properties and contraindications

From stomach colic. But there is amazing flowers, which are planted and which the whole world rejoices in, and for us they are a real mystery. One of them is a lofant, medicinal properties and its contraindications are known Tibetan monks for several hundred years now.

Getting to know the lofant

If you ask a botanist what a lofant is, he will not understand you right away. This name is unofficial, in fact it is called a multi-column, and if in Latin - then agastahe. This unusual flower more than 11 species, and each lofant is unique in its own way.

Most lofants are real giants, they can grow up to one and a half meters. That is why gardeners value them so much - fluffy fragrant leaves not only create a luxurious mini-jungle near your home, but also spread a charming anise smell with hints of mint and caramel for meters around.

The inflorescences of the lofant are collected in original “sultans” candles, color palette which are extremely diverse. Cream, lilac, strict ashen and delicate pink, blue and purple ... Tibetan lofant looks very gentle - the photos show romantic white flowers, and behind the scenes - a real treasure for your first aid kit.

Tibetan or anise?

Gardeners most appreciate the Mexican polygon (for its blazing purple hue and delicate foliage) and mountain (for its unique mint aroma and unpretentiousness). Cooks and supporters healthy eating prefer anise lofant, and adherents of traditional medicine - Tibetan.

controversy around different varieties agastahe are conducted among both scientists and gardeners. Most main question- anise and Tibetan lofant, differences and similarities, because these 2 types are the most popular. Outwardly, it is quite simple to distinguish these flowers: the Asian one blooms with noble white flowers, the spicy one with elegant purple ones.

On the left - Tibetan lofant, on the right - anise lofant. The differences are obvious...

IN folk medicine it is the Tibetan "variant" of the multi-grate that is actively used, the anise one has a different specialization. It is good in cooking, as part of fragrant teas, as a cosmetic product. Doctors recommend drinking tea from anise lofant for colds - to diversify the diet of honey and raspberry jam. But for the treatment of serious ailments, it is pointless to use it.

Tibetan lofant in the Russian garden ...

The Tibetan lofant has many names. Officially, it is called a wrinkled multi-grate (and you can’t tell by the stylish white candle flowers!), People call it Korean mint. This healing miracle comes from the Tibetan highlands and the Himalayas, but today inquisitive Russian gardeners are increasingly growing Asian mint in our domestic gardens.

If you are also going to settle an Asian guest on your site, growing a Tibetan lofant will not be special there. It reproduces in all the ways familiar to us - dividing the bush, cuttings, layering, but the most reliable option- in the old fashioned way, seedlings from seeds. Agastakhe will calmly survive even the unpredictable Siberian winter with its frosts and thaws, and begins to bloom in mid-summer, in July.

But it blooms to the last, until the first September frosts. It is at this time that it is recommended to store seeds for next landings and healing inflorescences for your first aid kit. But the lofant heals not only with inflorescences - for tinctures and medicinal teas, shoots with scented leaves are also needed. The entire upper part of the multi-grate is one continuous natural healer.
