The plant is found in the wild in fields, meadows, forest edges. It is often possible to observe a golden flyworm along the banks of water bodies, but not in marshy areas.

But flowering is short, it is necessary to have time to collect and prepare raw materials in time, while it is possible.

There is no point in tearing up the drapery with the root - in the underground part of the plant there are practically no valuable substances. For therapeutic purposes, only the tip is used - an umbrella inflorescence. It is enough to cut the tops from 20 to 35 cm long.

Tamping the raw materials in a bag or bag, it will be less useful, as part of the valuable components will evaporate with the juice.

You can dry the grass on pallets or on a spread sheet of paper. It is important to dry it to a brittle condition so that there is practically no moisture in the raw materials. Only after the grass has completely dried out, it is worth considering the issue of storage.Options for containers for medicinal collection:

• boxes;
• bags with a sealing zipper;
• fabric bags and drawstring bags;
• glass or tin cans.

The shelf life of raw materials depends on how well organized the conditions are. For grass, it is important that the room where it is stored has a stable air temperature. It is also important to comply with humidity indicators, to maintain them within normal limits - from 45 to 66%.

For such purposes, the Volodushka is just right, because it helps to restore the normal tone of the intestine and increase peristalsis. Grass normalizes the balance of microflora. The plant stimulates digestion by enhancing the secretion of enzymes. In addition, the volodushka makes bile more saturated, and this inevitably leads to a laxative effect. To cope with episodic constipation, it is enough to drink a cup of tea from a volodushka with honey on an empty stomach.

Tincture should be prepared not on vodka, but on alcohol. Alcohol 70% is suitable, but it is better to buy a bottle of pharmacy ethanol with a concentration of 96%. You can make tincture directly in a bottle with alcohol - it is usually packaged in bottles of dark glass, and this is an ideal container for preparing and storing medicine. For 100 ml of alcohol, take a tablespoon of grass, stand for 30 days, and then strain. Take tincture with hypertension as follows:

• 10 drops every morning for prevention;
• with hypertensive crisis, 1 teaspoon and after 3 hours the same.

• the presence of calcified large stones in the gallbladder;
• blockage of the bile ducts;
• liver failure;
• peptic ulcer in the acute stage.

With caution, it is worth using the plant for pancreatitis. Many gastroenterologists recommend not using it in the acute stage, since the plant can stimulate the production of enzymes and gastric juice, which can lead to irritation of an already inflamed organ.
