It is time for Blackcurrant

It is almost time for blackcurrant, which contains high amounts of vitamins, various sugars, organic acids, proteins, peptic substances, glucosides and essential oils.
Leaves, buds and berries have disinfecting effect due to the high content of essential oils.  If you use the berries with penicillin, tetracycline or streptomycin, the antibiotic effect is stronger.
Blackcurrant  leaves and buds are used as diuretic in kidney stone disease, bladder inflammation and inflammation of the pelvis.
Peptides are important in the treatment of poisonings. They are adsorbed in intestine and form insoluble compounds with salts of heavy metals, mercury, lead, cobalt, strontium. Peptic substances leave the body with adsorbed toxins.
Vitamin C is well maintained when berries are frozen. Blackcurrant leaves are also used for tea.
