Description and area

People began to drink the aromatic drink made from fireweed tea back in the 12th century. Due to its availability, it was mainly consumed by the poor, however, even representatives of the rich classes did not disdain a cup or two of delicious tea. In the 13th century, St. Petersburg monks began to grow fireweed tea, dry it, and make raw materials for brewing from it. Reviews of this unique drink quickly reached Europe. Until the 19th century, this product occupied one of the first places in Russian foreign trade, but after the Revolution it was undeservedly forgotten, and only recently they started talking about the drink again.

What does it look like and why was it called that?

Ivan tea has a straightened stem of a rounded shape, its foliage is dense, the leaf blades are quite long, their size varies from 4 to 12 cm, the shape is pointed, lanceolate. The leaf blades on top are painted a rich dark green color, and the lower surface usually has a bluish tint, less often reddish and less often pink.

The flowers are large and reach 3-4 cm in diameter, colored white-pink or violet-red. Quite rare, but nevertheless, you can find plants with milky white blooms. Flowers are collected together in inflorescences in the form of brushes, reaching a length of 40 cm. Flowering begins in the second half of summer and lasts about a month. The fruits look like small pod-like boxes, they contain seeds that can be easily transported by wind and rain.

The legend associated with this beautiful flower is very interesting. They say that in one small village near St. Petersburg there lived just a guy Ivan, who always wore a red shirt. He spent a lot of time in the forest and was known as a good herbalist. Local residents more than once found him collecting berries, herbs and medicinal roots, and every time they met the young man, they shouted “Ivan, tea is fermenting.”

One day the boy disappeared and no one knows how or why this happened, but immediately after his disappearance, unprecedented flowers of an amazingly beautiful bright scarlet color bloomed on the outskirts of the village. People mistook them for a herbalist’s shirt and, out of habit, said, “Ivan, the tea is fermenting.” This is where the name of the herb came from - fireweed.

However, the plant has many other names:

• “willow-grass” - due to the similarity of the leaves with the leaves of a weeping willow;
• “fireman” - the flower received this name because it is the very first to appear on the ashes;
• “crying” - when any attempt is made to pull a plant out of the ground, it emits a creaking sound that resembles a sob;
• “wild flax” - this name is explained by the good bast characteristics of the stems;
• “bread box” - the poor dried the grass, ground it and added it to flour, such an additive significantly saved, or even completely replaced, sweet sugar;
• “down jacket” - when fireweed blooms, a large amount of down is released, which in ancient times was collected and filled with mattresses and pillows.

Where does it grow in Russia?

Ivan tea is distinguished by a truly extensive habitat; it grows in the central zone of Russia, and in addition, it can often be found in the Caucasus, as well as the Far East and Siberia. It is found everywhere in areas with sandy loam soil, in forest clearings and even near the railway track. It is this grass that grows first in forests where a fire has occurred, although as young trees and shrubs grow, the plantings become thinner.

In most cases, it chooses the wet banks of small rivers and streams. This is explained by the special moisture-loving nature of fireweed; it is in such places that it grows as wildly as possible.

Quite often, fireweed is found in forests, both coniferous and deciduous. At the same time, the seeds are carried by the wind over quite long distances, which is why the grass can be found anywhere, even in a suburban area far from wild meadows and forests. However, fireweed does not grow in swampy areas; the seeds do not fully ripen in conditions of strong shading.

When collecting fireweed, try to give preference to places away from busy highways and railways - such plants absorb all harmful exhaust gases and can pose a danger to human health.

Varieties

Ivan tea has approximately 14 varieties, the most common are the following.

• Narrow-leaved is a perennial herbaceous plant. Its height is usually 1-1.5 m, but sometimes it can even reach two meters. It has a dense, strong root system, strong, erect stems and abundant foliage. The leaf blades are rich green, darker on top, and fade to bluish below. Flowering is pink-purple, in rare cases white. A drink made from narrow-leaved fireweed tea is characterized by powerful medicinal properties, therefore it is widely used in herbal medicine.

• Broadleaf is common in the North and Far East, has rather elongated leaves, the size of which reaches 10 cm, the shape is spear-shaped, the ends are narrowed. There may be hairs on the leaf blades. Flowers are dark pink, brush-shaped inflorescences. The plant is very popular among the indigenous population; Eskimos eat it raw and also brew it as regular tea.

• Caucasian - lives in the lower reaches of rivers in the Caucasus, as well as in the Stavropol Territory and Adygea. This is a small plant, the height of which does not exceed 50 cm, the size of the leaves is 1-3 cm, the inflorescences are pink, round, and the flower racemes are shortened. This plant is primarily grown as an ornamental.

• Dodonea - reaches a meter in height, characterized by single, weakly branched stems. The flowering is milky white or light pink, the leaves are even linear-lanceolate in shape, the edges of the leaf blades are without jagged edges. Most often it grows in the middle zone and subalpine zone.

• Stevena is another low-growing plant with bare and very narrow leaves, their width rarely exceeds 3 mm, the leaf blades have hairs.

• Fleichera is a perennial herb up to 45 cm high. The plant has quite powerful roots and thick stems with a large number of shoots, which are densely covered with leaves of a linear configuration with pointed ends. The leaf length reaches 4 mm. It blooms with rich, bright pink flowers from June to August. It is resistant to low temperatures and is widespread here and in European countries.

• Colchis - common in the Caucasian regions, where it grows at significant altitudes, forming entire alpine meadows of incredible beauty. The plant is low-growing, the flowers are bright pink.

Low-growing plants are considered decorative, therefore they are widely used in landscape design. The greatest benefits are provided by narrow-leaved and, to a slightly lesser extent, broad-leaved varieties of fireweed.

How to brew Ivan tea correctly? To do this, you can use a dry mixture of leaves, flowers, as well as dried roots.

You should not prepare Ivan tea for future use.

The highest quality and most effective tea is freshly brewed tea; when the brewed tea is stored for several days, the fermentation process begins, which can negatively affect the result.

Here are some examples of how to brew tea. To get a positive effect, you must strictly follow the rules for preparing and consuming Ivan tea:

1. For prostate adenoma. Take a small container with a lid, pour 2-3 tsp. dried fireweed, add two cups of boiling water. Leave to infuse for 10 minutes. Squeeze out using gauze. Drink 1 glass in the morning and evening on an empty stomach.
2. Chronic prostate disease. Take a container with a lid, pour 2 tsp. without top of tea leaves from herbs and flowers, add 1 cup of boiling water. Cover the container with a lid and leave to steep for 2 hours. Squeeze out using gauze. The solution is ready for use. Please remember that this is a concentrated solution, so you need to know how to take it. It should be divided into three servings, which should be drunk 30 minutes before meals.
3. Chronic prostate disease. Take a container with a lid, pour 2 tsp. without the top of the dry mixture of leaves and finely chopped roots, pour boiling water (1 cup), close with a lid, leave to infuse for 1 hour. Divide into 3 parts. Drink Ivan tea for prostatitis 30 minutes before meals.

Ivan tea has no contraindications. Drinks made from fireweed can be drunk like tea to quench thirst and restore strength. Only the concentration should be much less than that of medicinal teas for the prostate.

You can brew it in a teapot by adding 1-1.5 tsp, then pour boiling water over it. Leave for 5 minutes. The tea is ready for use.

Collection and preparation

If you want to prepare Ivan tea yourself, you should remember that the grass is collected during flowering, which lasts from mid-July to August. Flowers and leaves are picked off.

When you get home, sort out the grass, spread it on paper in a thick layer, and roll it up. Leave for 12 hours in a dark place. After this, dry the Ivan tea in the oven at a temperature of 80-100 degrees. Grind and place in dry jars with lids. Storage time 1 year.

To be used for medicinal purposes, Koporye tea must be collected during the flowering period (July-August).

It is recommended to use fireweed tea for prostatitis as an internal remedy - in the form of decoctions or infusions. You need to take such medications for 10 days, after which you should take a break for 1 month and repeat the course of treatment.

It is important not only to brew the plant correctly, but also to store it. Ready-made decoctions and infusions cannot be used for a long time, even if they are placed in a cool place. Healing remedies quickly lose their positive properties, so it is necessary to prepare fresh medicinal drinks from Koporye tea every day.

Infusion

Fireweed infusion can be prepared according to the following recipes:

• 1 tbsp. l. crushed plant roots, brew 250 ml of boiling water, leave for 10 hours in a closed container. After this, strain the liquid and take 3 tbsp. l. 3 times a day before meals.

Phytotherapy

Herbal medicine today is a very popular method of alternative medicine, which can sometimes even replace pills and unpleasant procedures. Of course, this is not possible in every case. For example, the presence of large foreign stones in the kidneys or in the bladder cavity cannot be cured with herbs alone. However, with inflammation of the bladder, medicinal herbs can come to the rescue. Many of the herbs have a healing composition that can relieve not only inflammation, but also have an analgesic effect. In everyday life, people are accustomed, when pain occurs, to take painkillers that harm the body. In this case, it is better to use traditional medicine. But, if the pain does not go away, but intensifies even more, then you should immediately visit a doctor.
