Decoction of lime flowers perfectly tones and helps to survive the summer in a stuffy megalopolis.

This was reported to the Voice by the doctor Viktoria Savitskaya.

Lack of oxygen in a hot time in one way or another affects the health of almost all citizens. So-called hypoxia can manifest weakness, drowsiness, dizziness, it affects the heart, liver, kidneys and, in the first place, the brain. Especially such a state is dangerous with a tendency to arrhythmia and pressure jumps, heart diseases and chronic diseases, whereas young people who do not have obvious pathologies and diseases may not even notice it.

"In small towns, villages and villages, the heat is much easier to transfer than in a big city, where asphalt literally melts underfoot, and clouds of smoke from cars envelop the sidewalks. Naturally, under such conditions, the organism catastrophically lacks oxygen, there is a so-called hypoxia. It is rather difficult to resist this phenomenon - except to go to the country or spend the summer in the mountains of the Carpathians. To facilitate the condition and help the body in the work, there are many drugs, but I would recommend not to rush them, especially without consulting a doctor. Moreover, the effect of them in most cases is minimal. To alleviate the condition and cope with hypoxia will help the most common decoction of lime flowers. Such a drink positively affects the brain and internal organs, soothes and quenches thirst. What is important is that it is absolutely harmless and suitable for daily use. It can be given even to small children (of course, the broth should not be strong) to improve sleep and soothe, "- said a specialist.

Light decoction of linden is also indicated for the restoration of the nervous system and heart in case of heart failure, and also as an easy natural sedative.

It is believed that only lime blossoms have medicinal properties, but this is not so - the leaves and seeds remaining in place of the inflorescences contain not less active substances and, by the way, can be collected during July. The main thing is not to forget that the gathering place should be clean and stay as far as possible from the highways and crowded places.
