Often among lovers of indoor floriculture there is a plant that looks like corn - a golden mustache. The flower does not differ in special beauty, but it has valuable healing properties. Popular rumor gives him the ability to get rid of various diseases and rejuvenate the body. It is noteworthy that there are not so many contraindications for the use of the plant.
Mexico is considered the birthplace of the golden mustache or fragrant callisia. This plant was brought to Russia by a botanist, the founder of the Batumi Botanical Garden Andrei Nikolaevich Krasnov. So, from the end of the 19th century, the journey of the healer flower through our country began.
Golden mustache is a herbaceous plant of the Commeline family. Its main shoot can reach 2 meters in length. He looks like corn. The shape and color of the leaves, their arrangement is very reminiscent of a well-known vegetable, but the similarity ends there. In addition to the main shoot, the plant produces horizontal layering. These are mustaches, consisting of joints and ending in small rosettes.
A golden mustache becomes an adult when 8 joints appear on its layers
During flowering, the golden mustache throws out a long peduncle with small white and very fragrant flowers. Propagated by rooting small rosettes.
White fragrant flowers - golden mustache gratitude for good care
Canadian and American biologists were the first to study the plant for its beneficial properties. More than a hundred years ago, they managed to find biologically active substances in this plant that can affect cancer cells and prevent oncology.
In the 80s of the last century, Russian scientists joined the study of the beneficial properties of the golden mustache. Research is not yet completed, but some results have already been obtained.
The juice of the flower contains bioactive elements:
In addition to bioactive substances, vitamins were found in it:
The juice of the leaves and shoots of the golden mustache contains useful trace elements - bromine, copper, iron, zinc, cobalt, magnesium.
Due to the large number of useful substances, vitamins and microelements, as well as their ratio, the plant is successfully used in the treatment of the stomach and intestines, with impaired hematopoiesis, skin damage, and metabolic disorders - obesity and diabetes.
Experts warn that the remedy is not a panacea and its medicinal properties have not yet been fully studied.
It is always necessary to take into account the characteristics of the body - the use of a golden mustache, despite the range of positive properties of the plant, can cause an allergic reaction in someone. Scientists, after conducting a series of experiments, proved that the juice sits down and coarsens the voice and it is no longer possible to restore it.
Treatment is contraindicated for them:
Before starting treatment, do not forget to consult with your doctor, especially if you have chronic diseases, because plants are the same medicines and can also bring both benefit and harm if used incorrectly.
In the treatment of various diseases, juice, ointments, oils, infusions and tinctures based on the flower are used. They are prepared from an adult plant, with a mustache of 8–10 knees and small rosettes.
All parts of the plant are suitable for obtaining juice - both leaves and mustaches. The prepared green mass must be thoroughly washed and dried with paper towels. Grinding is most convenient in a blender, but you can also pass through a meat grinder or finely chop with a knife. Squeeze the juice through 2 layers of gauze. Use the remaining cake to make oils and infusions, and make compresses from fresh juice or take it orally.
Golden mustache juice should preferably be stored in a dark glass bottle.
Glaucoma is successfully treated with golden mustache juice by instilling two drops into the eyes once a day. In the treatment of bowel cancer, microclysters are placed with 20 ml of juice. Fresh juice compresses are applied for 5 minutes to the bridge of the nose in the treatment of sinusitis.
Golden mustache ointment is used for arthrosis, arthritis, various joint diseases, and heel spurs.
Ointment preparation:
Store in a glass container in the refrigerator.
Apply a thin layer of ointment to the sore spot, cover with a cotton napkin and bandage with a woolen scarf. The procedure is best done at night. After several applications, inflammation and pain are reduced. With spurs, the feet must be steamed out and only after that apply a napkin with ointment. You can fix the bandage with an elastic bandage, but to enhance the effect, it is better to wear woolen socks.
The oil is made from cake - the remaining raw material after squeezing the juice from the golden mustache. 5 parts of cake are placed in a glass jar and pour 1 part of olive oil. Insist in a dark place for 25-30 days, then filter. The oil can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 30 days.

Infusion or decoction is used for colds, diseases of the digestive system, diabetes, pancreatitis, stomatitis and various eczema.
For infusion, take one or two adult leaves of the plant and one mustache.
Drink warm 1 tablespoon 20 minutes before meals.
To obtain an alcohol tincture, you will need several mustaches of a plant with rosettes - about 20 joints. Finely chop the green parts and pour 0.5 liters of vodka. Infuse for 2 weeks in a dark place, shaking the container from time to time.

To do this, 30 drops of tincture are dissolved in half a glass of boiled water and drunk in the morning and evening for 10 days. After a 10-day break, the reception is repeated.
Alcohol tincture from the golden mustache helps with many diseases
Golden mustache for a long time grew up with me as a poor relative. Everyone was disturbed by his rapidly growing mustache, and the stem itself continually strove to escape from the pot if it was not tied up in time. Irritated at times strongly and everything was going to say goodbye to him, but it was a pity - he was alive, after all. Attitude towards him changed after her husband developed severe back pain - herniated discs. Nights without sleep, pills if they help, then not for long.
On the advice of a familiar granny, she made a tincture of vodka from the leaves and joints of a golden mustache. I was going to rub it, but since the surface for application is large - the back and leg (the pain gave off to the leg), I decided to first try it on a small area to check the skin reaction. I smeared it with a small spot on the inside of the elbow - everything is fine. Started treatment. I rubbed alcohol tincture into my husband's spine and sore leg every evening until it turned slightly red. Then she covered it with a cotton scarf and a woolen shawl on top. The pain subsided both in the back and in the leg, which made it possible for the husband to sleep until the morning.
Of course, it cannot be said that we cured hernias with a golden mustache, since we were treated simultaneously with several means, but the tincture anesthetizes and relieves inflammation - there is no doubt about it.
For skin care, the antiseptic and blood circulation-improving properties of the golden mustache are used. For the treatment of acne, dandruff and hair loss, alcohol tincture and freshly squeezed juice are used. The face is rubbed with tincture, and the juice is rubbed into the scalp. To soften the heels and elbows, as well as with weathered skin of the face and hands, golden mustache oil is used. Face masks with the addition of juice or gruel from the mustache and leaves have a nourishing and moisturizing effect. With regular use of masks, a rejuvenating effect is manifested - the skin becomes more elastic, smooth and radiant.
By adding various ingredients to the juice or infusion from the golden mustache, you can get care products for any type of skin.
Means with a golden mustache have a drying effect, so if you have oily skin, use the tincture and juice of the plant, and if you have dry skin, use oil.
1 egg yolk, 3 teaspoons of golden mustache juice, 50 g of honey and 50 g of linseed or olive oil, mix thoroughly and heat slightly in a water bath. Apply the mask on the face and leave for 2-3 minutes, apply again - do this until the mixture is over. Hold the mask on your face for 10 minutes and rinse with warm water.
Dilute one tablespoon of golden mustache juice and strawberry juice in 1 glass of boiled water. Add a teaspoon of glycerin and stir. Wipe pre-cleansed face skin in the morning and evening. Store 3-5 days in the refrigerator.
If the skin is oily, strawberry juice can be replaced with alcohol tincture of calendula.

Initially, this flower was used only for decorative purposes. In Russia, it appeared only at the end of the 19th century. It is often referred to as the "home doctor".
