Why did Russian peasants never have cancer? Trying to save money on tea, they drank chaga instead. They took it from birch, crushed it, and then boiled it.
Chaga-mushroom is considered one of the most popular alternative drinks for cancer prevention and in some cases helps to cure it.
How Chaga tea was discovered
Sergey Nikolaevich Maslennikov, a Russian doctor, remembered by the local population, many years after his death, was born on June 21, 1887 in a poor family of merchant Nikita Maslennikov. Nikita Konstantinovich served as chief of the merchant class Obrezkova, then became a co-owner of a wine shop. He was kind and gentle, and he loved children. One of his granddaughters recalled that he allowed them to mow his beard in braids when they were small. His wife, Elikanida Mikhailovna, unlike her husband, was a harsh, practical and laid-back woman. She saved the berries from her large garden for jam, which was sold in the store.
In 1908, Sergei graduated from the Medical Faculty of Moscow University, then worked in Alexandrov in the district hospital. In October 1910, he married Maria Mikhailovna Sokolova. She was born in St. Petersburg in the family of a librarian of the Tauride Palace. After the death of her parents, she lived with her relatives Dobronravov. Elikanida Mikhailovna believed that the orphan, the bride Masha Sokolova, was not very well suited for her son, but he advised about marriage. In 1912 they had a daughter, Catherine, in 1913 - Maria.
In 1914-1918, Sergei Maslennikov served in the 197th Infantry Regiment of the 6th Siberian Division, in 1916 he worked in a hospital in Nizhny Novgorod. From 1924 to 1935 he traveled around the country: he worked in the county of Tashkazen in the Syrdarya province, then on Sakhalin, in Blagoveshchensk in Kara-Bugaz. In 1935 he returned to Alexandrov. Since 1941, he served in the hospital, then - as a doctor in the sanatorium centers of Alexander.
Sergey was a talented man, very hardworking. He collected many recipes that are still consumed by residents of the city for the treatment of sore throat, colds ... He was also a research doctor.
The main achievement of his life is the discovery, as indicated in the "description of the invention", "a symptomatic tool to relieve the condition of cancer patients."
Solzhenitsyn, one of Maslennikov's "census patients", talks about this in the novel Cancer Chamber:
"Friends! This is an amazing story. I was told about this by one patient who came here to check when I was still waiting for an appointment here. And now the answer! Twelve days have passed - and the answer. And Dr. Maslennikov even apologized for the delay, because it turned out that he had to respond on average to ten letters a day. And less than half an hour is not enough for a good letter. So for five hours a day, someone wrote letters! he is when not working, And there is no glory for his work. For us, sick patients, the doctor is like a carrier: we need him for an hour, and then we don’t know, at the end of the letter, complains that patients, especially someone he helped, stop writing to him about the doses received and results. And he also asked me - he begged me to answer thoughtfully!
... one former patient told me about Dr. Maslennikov (an old doctor from Aleksandrovsky district near Moscow). He has been there for decades - since he came there, he was treated in the same hospital. And then he noticed that, despite the fact that in the medical literature more and more people wrote about cancer, he did not have cancer patients among the peasants. Why was this? ...
He began to study ... and found this phenomenon: in order to save money on tea, men in this whole area do not brew tea, but chaga, also known as birch fungus. ... So, Sergey N. Maslennikov thought: isn't it a chaga that Russian peasants were cured of cancer for centuries without knowing it?
But, obviously, this was not enough. We had to check everything. We had many, many years to watch those who drink this homemade tea and those who do not drink. This meant giving this drink to those who have the tumor, and taking the responsibility not to treat them in other ways. Then guess what temperature is boiled, and in what dose to either boil or not boil, and how many glasses to drink without damaging. Then observe which tumors are affected and which they are less affected. "
Solzhenitsyn experienced the healing effect of the fungus. And thousands of other people. Many of them have saved Sergei Nikolaevich.
It is worth reading his notebooks with reports on the results of his treatment. There are frequent records of complete recovery. But for a long time this method of treatment was not recognized. He was supposed to see patients in secret, not at work or at home. Only in 1950, after years of research and observation, did Sergei N. turn to the Ministry of Health for his invention. Copyright was obtained in 1958, eight years later.
Like all talented people, Dr. Maslenikov was a versatile person who was fond of many things, such as hunting and gardening. He also walked around the whole Alexandrov with the help of a camera, shooting every corner. Many photos of Sergiev Posad are preserved in the cities of southern Russia.
And recently, in 2001, a Japanese pharmaceutical company became interested in the invention of Dr. Alexandrov. After Sergei Nikitich, his representatives arrived at his museum, and then a magazine about Dr. Maslennik and chaga was released in Japan.
