The cherry has no useless parts: both berries, and leaves, and a bark possess certain medical properties.
Berries possess laxative and sudorific properties – they need to be eaten during a season as much as possible because they contain a large amount of cellulose and the pectins useful to a digestive path. The handful of the cherry leaves welded in milk, has laxative effect. Dried cherries, on the contrary, possess fixing action. Juice of a cherry is effective at high temperature and thirst, during the winter period it is possible to apply infusion from a dried cherry. The cherry glue (pitch) dissolved in white wine, is recommended at an urolithic illness.
