Bischofite is a complex of minerals of natural origin, which is used in the chemical industry, construction, and medicine. This polymineral received this name in honor of the German geologist who first discovered it (Karl-Gustov Bischoff). This discovery took place in Germany at the end of the nineteenth year (namely, in 1877). This mineral was formed as a result of the evaporation of ancient seas (these processes took place more than two hundred million years ago, at that time it was the time of the Permian period), that is, in fact, bischofite is crystalline ancient salt.

At first (about seventy years), this complex of minerals was considered quite rare until huge deposits of bischofite were discovered in our country (in the Volga region) in the middle of the last century. This natural complex is located at a depth of about one and a half - two thousand meters. Bischofite is easily soluble in water, and therefore its extraction takes place by an unusual method: a dry layer of the mineral, located underground, dissolves with water and the resulting solution rises to the top. In the form of crystals, it practically does not occur, if there is, then they are white or slightly yellowish in color, granular, fibrous, salty-bitter in taste, easily absorb water from the air.

Basically, bischofite is used as a solution (with a concentration of 350 to 420 grams per liter of water).

The main deposits of bischofite.

Firstly, in Stasfur in Germany, but there it is not in its pure form, but in the rocks, where it is contained about fifty percent, we, in Russia, have the same deposit in the Urals near Solikamsk. Secondly, in Russia in the Volgograd region, these deposits are clean (bischofite content is more than ninety-five percent). Thirdly, it is as pure as the previous one in Ukraine, namely in the Poltava region, discovered about twenty years ago, the bischofite of this deposit is more active, since it is more ancient, because it lies at a depth of more than two and a half kilometers.

The use of bischofite in treatment

Bishofit is used in many areas, mainly as a source of pure magnesium, but its main use is in medicine, as a spa treatment, wellness spa treatments.

Composition of bischofite:

  • magnesium chlorite - main component, its concentration reaches 450 grams per liter, it has a positive effect on the nervous system, helps protect the heart, lower blood pressure in the arteries, improves the neuromuscular apparatus, lowers cholesterol, participates in the formation of many enzymes, has properties that help reduce allergic manifestations;

the remaining salts are presented in lower concentrations (less than ten grams per liter):

  • magnesium bromide - stabilizes the processes of inhibition and excitation in the brain, reduces excitability;
  • calcium chloride - has an anti-allergic effect, reduces vascular permeability during inflammation;
  • calcium sulfate - helps in the formation bone tissue; potassium chloride, sodium chloride, calcium bicarbonate;
  • in addition to salts, there are also trace elements: boron - normalizes water-salt and carbohydrate metabolism, has antioxidant properties; iodine - helps in the processes of resorption and regeneration, destroys bacteria;
  • copper - is a part of enzymes;
  • iron - is part of hemoglobin;
  • silicon - regulates fat metabolism, strengthens blood vessels;
  • molybdenum, lithium, titanium, rubidium and others.

This complex of salts and minerals has analgesic, anti-inflammatory, regenerative, antimicrobial properties and is used in

  • joint diseases (deforming arthrosis, rheumatoid arthritis, consequences of injuries),
  • with pathology of the spine (degenerative-dystrophic changes, inflammatory diseases),
  • also in the pathology of the circulatory system (circulatory failure of the first - second degree, hypertension, myocardial ischemia, atherosclerosis),
  • nervous system of the peripheral and central ( radicular syndromes, neurosis, asthenia, circulatory disorders),
  • inflammatory pathology of the reproductive system.

She was sick with polyarthritis. Saved from the pain "Bishofite"

I want to tell you about a wonderful remedy that my whole family has been treating for many years. But everything is in order. Twenty-five years ago, my foot hurt so badly that I had to go to a surgeon for help. A young doctor, after examining the foot, advised me to roll a bottle with my sore foot. For a long time I “exercised” like this, and the pain gradually moved to the second foot, then to my knees and hands. Turned to another, more experienced surgeon. It was already elderly woman. It was she who determined that I had polyarthritis. She prescribed injections and pills that improved my condition a little, but not quite. Climbing the stairs, I, already reaching the third floor, felt severe pain I had shortness of breath and my heart ached. And then one day a neighbor came to me and said: - They offer me to buy medicine here. Let's buy one check for two for testing. I agreed. Immediately she began to smear her sore legs with this remedy and after about 7 times she felt relieved. From such unexpected joy, I, going to work, was ready to kiss everyone I met. After that, she asked a neighbor to find out what kind of medicine it is and where you can buy it. It turned out that it is called "Bishofite" and you can buy it at the Volgograd Oil Institute. Taking a vacation, I went to Volgograd with my seven-year-old daughter. At that time there was a deposit of this natural medicine. It was mined in the form of salt and sent to the mines to extinguish fires and to collective farms, where cattlewomen added it to the food of animals. By the way, all the workers of the institute, who hand-packed this salt, disappeared from diseases of the joints of the hands. It was then that one professor suggested using this remedy in official medicine. And by the time I arrived in Volgograd, many local hospitals were already using this medicine. The only pity is that, to my shame, I did not remember the name of this professor. After all, it is he, having familiarized himself with my medical card, said that “Bishofit” would definitely help me, and he himself filled two two-liter jars that I brought from home with it. And in parting, the professor said: - Tell your doctors that I will give them a whole tank of this medicine, just let them come. In the end, he achieved the recognition of medicine "Bishofit". True, it is a pity that some dishonest pharmacists dilute "Bishofit" to such a state that it becomes ineffective. And now in more detail about its application. "Bishofit" helps with polyarthritis, arthritis, arthrosis, osteochondrosis and sciatica. Heat the diseased joint with a heating pad and massage. Then pour 1 tsp in a saucer. "Bishofite", dip your fingers into it and easily rub it into the diseased joint for 3-5 minutes. 1 tsp enough to lubricate two joints, no more. The remains from the saucer are soaked with gauze and applied to the sore joint, on top - compress paper and something warm. Leave overnight. In the morning, the compress is removed, the body is washed with water and wiped dry. After that, you should try not to freeze, dress warmly. For recovery, you will need 12-14 such nightly procedures. If the skin is irritated, they should be done every other day. During treatment, a slight exacerbation of the disease is possible, but this should not be frightened, it passes quickly. "Bishofite" is stored in a glass container in a dark place. The storage period is not limited. Over time, a precipitate may appear, but the medicine does not lose its medicinal properties. If you manage to get "Bishofite" in the form of salt, then it should be diluted as follows: fill a half-liter jar up to half with "Bishofite", pour warm boiled water to the top and let it stand for 5-6 days. After that, the medicine can be applied.
