Kopechnik (red root) - medicinal properties and uses

Botanical description, homeland and distribution

Kopeechnik (from the Latin Hedusarum - literally - pleasantly smelling) belongs to the large legume family. Several generic varieties are found in nature - mainly perennial herbaceous plants, subshrubs and shrubs.

Interesting. The scientific name for the plant was given by the famous Swedish naturalist, Carl Linnaeus in the 18th century. He also introduced Kopeechnik into the unified classification of flora and fauna.

In Ukraine, the plant is commonly called Solodushka for its spicy aroma and nectar. Russian folk analogues of the names of Kopeechnik are Gedizar, Baduy, Sardana, Red Root, Denezhnik.

The plant's beans are round, slightly elongated, elliptical in shape. The bean fruits are constricted transversely, slightly pubescent, pendulous, and consist of 2-5 flat segments.

The root system is powerful and thickened. The root is woody, taprooted, and goes deep into the soil, which increases the plant’s tolerance to arid climates.

The stems are tall, there are branched, branching and erect species. The length of the stem reaches up to 80 cm. The flower arrow emerges from the shoots. The shoots are shortened and develop at the basal neck.

The stipules are brown in color, scaly, large, fused together. There are 4-10 leaves on short petioles arranged in pairs on the stem. The leaves, depending on the species, are oval, rounded, ovoid in shape. The leaf blade along the edges, below and along the main vein is slightly pubescent with short hairs.

Peduncles are longer than the leaves and are located at the top of the stem. The flowers are bright, fragrant, purple or lilac in color, collected in loose clusters of 15-30 pieces.

The seeds are small, up to 3 mm, olive-brown in color.

Biochemical composition of the plant

Red root consists of a large number of unique substances:

1. Flavonoids. These are plant polyphenols (pigments) that give color to flowers, leaves and stems. There are also flavonoids that have no color. These substances help with problems with the cardiovascular system, strengthening the walls of capillaries, and fight spasms in all parts of the body.
2. Catechins. They are organic antioxidants, i.e. substances that neutralize free radicals. They remove heavy metal ions from the body, strengthen the immune system and blood vessels. They have restorative properties. Thanks to them, the plant's decoctions become rich red.
3. Saponites. Plants with saponites are often used in medicine to combat wet coughs, as they help remove phlegm. They affect the mucous membranes of the bronchi and stomach (this accelerates the absorption of nutrients), normalize the salt and water content in the body.
4. Tannins. Concentrated in the root part, they have a pleasant but slightly astringent taste. The main biochemical function is to bind proteins. Therapeutic effects: fixation of diarrhea, acceleration of metabolism.
5. Estrogens. Female sex hormones. Thanks to them, the red root is prescribed during menopause.
6. Xanthones. A class of substances that stabilize the central nervous system.
7. Alkaloids. Plant organic substances with nitrogen as a molecule. They prevent the proliferation of harmful microorganisms and have a mild analgesic effect.
8. Amino acids. The basis of proteins in the body.
9. Vitamin C and polysaccharides.
