You can admire bees, their coherence and diligence. To watch, without interruption, for their measured buzzing, for the “dancing” in front of the hive. . It has long been noted that beekeepers who keep bees in a subsidiary farm are refined natures, kind, attentive, strong in spirit. I'm not talking about industrial mining - there is the main amount of goods. Such "spets" quickly break down, or something in their life does not go well, well, it's not about that. Bees were of great importance in the lives of our ancestors, especially those who settled in the northern and northwestern regions. In forest-steppe zones, onboard beekeeping has been widely developed. Bortya in Ancient Russia was called a natural, and then artificial hollow of a living tree. Now many beekeepers successfully use beehives framework, designed for many climatic conditions, almost universal. The comfort of bees in a cold climate is compensated by the thickness of the board (preferably spruce or pine, medium softness, rocks) of the hive walls. So, for the middle of Russia, where the wintering of bees lasts an average of 7 months, it is enough to use the thickness of boards equal to 35 mm in the northern latitudes of 40 mm or more. Such hives can be made by yourself, using simple locksmith tools - a hacksaw, a shirt, a selector.
And the first family, the swarm, can be caught on their own, in June-July month of the year, hanging traps made of linden bark or elm, twisted with a "fist", and bound with a slug. Traps should be hung high enough on trees standing on the outskirts, in a noticeable, visible place.
The ancestors did not have problems with figurative thinking, so we also need to mentally imagine where a bee swarm can fly, there and set a trap.
Mature honey never spoils. All products of beekeeping, without exception, are useful, including bites and winter petrification.
Bee venom is used even for cervical dislocation and intervertebral hernia - 3-5 bees are enough to sting in a sore place.
From the bee subsurface (bee that died during the wintering) make tinctures, decoctions. It should be borne in mind that you can not use the whole subsurface, but only one that is well preserved, i.e. fresh, absolutely dry, without mold and foreign smell. Bee subpeasant treats various diseases, but its main property is an increase in immunity, and with good immunity, the body copes better with any disease. Speaking in the language of traditional medicine, bee subpestilence preparations have a blood-purifying property. “Cleaning” and “rejuvenating” the blood, they cleanse the whole body. They do not have side effects and, practically, have no contraindications. Older people are not only possible, but also strongly recommended to take this miracle elixir just for prevention.
Our ancestors did not know what sugar was, and many people healed with honey and propolis. It is very useful to eat honey in sealed honeycombs, waxed, and very tasty, and useful, because such wax removes toxins from the body!
Perga is bee pollen collected by bees, laid and rammed into honeycomb cells. It has a good therapeutic effect in malignant anemia, anemia, diseases of the nervous and endocrine systems, gastrointestinal tract (ulcers of the stomach and duodenum, colitis, enteritis), increases the content of hemoglobin and erythrocytes in the blood, increases the body's resistance against infection, helps to strengthen immunity.
A satisfactory dose of perga (every day and all life) ~ 10 grams per day, and the optimum is 30 grams, this dosage is recommended for tuberculosis; in the acute form of viral diseases (flu, viral hepatitis).
Honey, wax, propolis, bee venom are allergens. Only perga is not allergenic to anyone, it can be taken by anyone - healthy, sick, old and young!
Propolis can even serve to prevent diseases transmitted by airborne droplets - it is enough to create incense in the room. The feature of propolis (different from other honey products) - when boiled even for one hour, propolis retains its properties completely. Therefore, it can be used in cases where it needs to be heated, boiled or used with hot water. Propolis has antibacterial and some anti-inflammatory, analgesic properties, it is used in the treatment of the oral cavity, gums, teeth (rinsing and applying plates with propolis, damage to the gastric mucosa (with gastritis - inside), with inflammation of the ear, treatment of wounds, burns, frostbite, injuries and burns of the eyes.
Royal jelly is used to treat diseases of the central nervous system, cardiovascular diseases, atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction and anemia, increases mental and physical performance, rejuvenates the skin and the body as a whole!
Almost 80% of honey consists of carbohydrates, one of which is fructose. And thanks to it, honey is less caloric compared to sugar and more useful. It has a beneficial effect on nervous exhaustion, helps with heart and gastric diseases, liver diseases, softens the mucous membranes and is therefore recommended for coughing and throat diseases. During the Great Patriotic War, many medical institutions, hospitals, successfully used honey as an external remedy for wound healing and in the treatment of pustular skin diseases. In its content, honey is rich in mineral salts, vitamins of group A, C, K, PP, H and E, as well as various acids. And it is the organic acids contained in honey that give it unique taste qualities.
In modern conditions, any sane, economic person, quite cope with a dozen hives, and this is enough to provide your large family for a long winter not just a treat, but a valuable useful food!
Good morning!
