Few people realize just how powerful the humble potato flower can be. When the potato plant starts to bloom, those delicate flowers are far more than just a sign of a healthy crop – they’re a natural remedy with remarkable healing potential.
From polyarthritis and osteochondrosis to stomach ulcers, potato flowers have long been used in traditional medicine to address chronic pain, inflammation, and digestive issues. Here’s how you can use this overlooked part of the plant to support your health.
For Polyarthritis Relief
As soon as your potato plants bloom, gather the flowers with the stems and dry them in a shaded area, away from direct sunlight.
Tincture Preparation:
- Place a handful of dried potato flowers into a 0.75-liter glass bottle.
- Add 600 ml of alcohol (e.g., vodka or medical-grade alcohol).
- Store in a dark place for 2 weeks.
Once ready, apply the tincture to knees or affected joints every night, then rinse off in the morning.
If the polyarthritis is severe, take a short break after completing one course and then repeat the treatment. Continue until symptoms improve or disappear.
For Stomach and Duodenal Ulcers (Any Acidity)
Potato flower tea can help heal ulcers regardless of your stomach’s acidity level.
Infusion Preparation:
- Take 3 flower stems and pour over 4 tablespoons of boiling water.
- Simmer gently for a few minutes, but do not boil.
- Drink 1 tablespoon of the warm infusion 15 minutes before meals, 3 times daily.
Follow a 10-day treatment cycle, then take a 20-day break.
Prepare a fresh portion each day for maximum potency.
Real Experience
One patient shared that they healed a duodenal ulcer using this exact remedy. After completing the course and undergoing a medical exam, their doctor confirmed that the ulcer had completely healed, leaving only scar tissue behind – and was astonished at the recovery.
Keep this recipe on hand and try it during potato blooming season – it may become one of your favorite natural remedies.
Wishing you good health!
