Plantain of large leaves - instructions for use, dose, side effects, contraindications

The drug has antiseptic with staphylococcus, pseudomonas aeruginosa, hemolytic streptococcus (due to phytoncides), wound and ulcer healing, as well as anti-inflammatory effect (due to tanning agents, salicylic and benzoic acids, polysaccharides, pectin substances), hemostatic (due to vitamin K ) and antihypoxic effect (due to organic (especially citric) and phenolcarbon (ferulic, coffee, coumaric) acids, flavonoids, vitamin C, zinc and copper). The drug also has an antispasmodic, enveloping effect.

Polysaccharides activate the formation of interferon, zinc and flavonoids contribute to the normalization of phagocytosis.Acceleration of regeneration is facilitated by the combination of polysaccharides with enzymes and vitamins. These effects are also closely related to the ability of plantain to increase the resistance of cells and tissues to a lack of oxygen.

Plantain regulates digestion, increases appetite, reduces the tone of smooth muscles of the stomach and intestines, has an anti-inflammatory and regenerative effect in gastritis, gastroduodenitis and other gastrointestinal inflammatory diseases. Iridoidal glycosides, aukubin, catalepol and bitter, which are part of it, increase the secretion of gastric juice, increase the acidity of gastric contents.

Thanks to mucus, enzymes, phytoncids, psyllium also exerts an expectorant effect, restores the protective function of the ciliated epithelium of the respiratory tract.

Saponins, oxycinnamic acids, flavonoids and pectin substances contribute to lowering the level of cholesterol in the blood.
