Most people use pine forest only as a source of Christmas trees, while not even knowing what a great benefit it brings to mankind.This is a great place for the prevention and treatment of diseases of the lungs and nervosa.The air is several times purer than in a hospital operating room.And this is due to the fact that all the trees secrete a substance is volatile production.Deciduous plants are capable of secreting a day close to two kilograms of these compounds, and pine - to five.Especially active are formed volatile in the sun.Pine forest can be called sterile because there are virtually no dust.It is deposited on said resinous bark and branches, and with the rain washes the ground.Incidentally, during the Second World War in the coniferous forests are often organized field hospitals.In pine, spruce, juniper groves operations carried out under the open sky, and there were no cases of infection.Here the air is so saturated with essential oils that heal wounds almost before our eyes.But that's not all.It turns out that even the coniferous forest helps a hangover!Clean air helps eliminate headaches, but overdo still not recommended, as it can happen glut of oxygen.In all you need to know the measure.It is especially useful pine forest for tuberculosis patients.
Natural
kit you can assemble and cook a lot of natural and environmentally-friendly medicines.People for centuries used alcohol tinctures on the pollen of coniferous trees.Pine sap perfectly heals wounds and skin cracks.In rheumatoid arthritis is recommended to use an infusion of pine buds.Young needles helps to combat scurvy.While the British and Spanish sailors lost because of it up to 70 percent of the team, the Siberian explorers did not even know of the existence of such a disease.To make vitamin cocktail, you need four cups of fresh (preferably young) needles pour water (three glasses), let stand, and then can be used twice a day for one hundred milliliters.Pine cones well help to rehabilitate after a stroke, and all because they contain large amounts of tannins.
«eternal life»
To sum efficiencies needles, wood and bark, it turns out that pine wood able to control cholesterol, prevent heart disease, improve immunity.In addition, various coniferous infusions help to normalize the metabolism and thus weight loss.Scientists have discovered that the pine wood contains a substance as DHA (degidrokvertsetin), which is able to bind free radicals cells.The use of DHA leads to an improvement of the skin, prolonging her youth and the general improvement of the body.Our country is very fortunate to have on its territory grows such a large number of pine, spruce and other conifer forests.After extraction degidrokvertsetina from other raw materials, such as rose petals, grape seed, citrus - a very costly exercise.DHA today is unparalleled in terms of biological activity.
Plants pine forest
Crohn pine is relatively loose, delicate, causing it to miss a lot of light.Therefore, in such forests is no strong shadowing, which promotes the development of an entirely different plant communities than in spruce and deciduous arrays.Plants lower tiers receive enough light for their development.However, in the pine forests significantly less moisture, the climate and causes biogeocoenosis pine forest.Depending on the type of soil, there will be dominated by a variety of flora.So, on the very poor and dry sands under the trees spread out carpets of lichens.On wet, but poor soils often present blueberry bushes.In the woods, located on a fairly fatty soils average moisture content (ie, with abundant nutrients) grows sorrel.The pine forests are often covered with moss carpet the land, against which good feel of grass and shrubs: blueberries, cranberries, moss, wintergreen and others.
Lichen Forest
very much different from other pine forest growing on especially the poor and dry soils.The trees here are pretty low, depressed, they are rare.This forest is especially a lot of light.Therefore, there are common plants, unusual for spruce and deciduous planting.For example, here it meets the heather - a low bush, which is at the end of the summer attracts attention with its exceptionally beautiful flowering.It is densely covered with very small pink-lilac flowers, and in the forest create a magical, fairytale atmosphere.In the dry pine forests spread low grass - cat's paw, it has leaves with bluish, silvery shade.Blossoms small buds, baskets of white or pink.There is also a well-developed white lichen, a subspecies of reindeer moss.
Luteus and greenfinch - eternal companions pine trees
As already mentioned, pine grows mainly on poor sandy soils.This affects the types of fungi that can be found in it.But their number affects the age of the forest.For example, in young animals, from the second year, there are the first butter mushrooms, they grow in the grass under the trees or free-standing between the rows.The yield of this fungus increases annually and will reach its peak in 10-15 years, and then begins to decline.When the pine forest grows, there appears greenfinch.This mushroom grows in large groups, but there are single copies.Most often Greenfinches can be found in the lowlands - in young, middle-aged adults and forests.
Other mushrooms
Luteus and Greenfinches are the yields, however, are not the only pine forest mushrooms.On the plains can be found blewits gray, white fungus and its variety (he yellow-brown hat and a relatively thin cylindrical leg.) In young abundant fruit autumn mushrooms or real.These families grow on stumps or around the trunks.Also in the young pine forest are found mushrooms that grow in wet lowlands groups and glades.In moist forests accustomed goats and Mokhovikov, russules marsh, mlechniki gray-pink.Fall in moderately moist groves may occur podgruzdki black.A forest glades and fringes can find a true delicacy - the mushroom umbrella motley.
If there are pine trees, along with other tree species, the diversity of fungi increase significantly.There may be, and boletus, and sinyata and russules and Volzanka and black mushrooms, and many others.
Poisonous mushrooms in the pine forests are very common and pale toadstool amanita - pantherina, pogankovidny and red.Around the dead trees on the stumps, large groups grow poisonous lozhnoopyata gray-yellow.The grassy pine in large numbers scattered Govorushko.Among them are edible and poisonous species.
Fauna
largest pine forest dwellers - is even-toed ungulates (wild boar, elk, deer).The most common are deer - very beautiful and relatively trusting animals.They may vary depending on where you live body size and structure of the horns.The following representatives of fauna are the bears.These animals are the most famous inhabitants of the forest, that's why they are called the symbol of the forest.On their many legends and fairy tales.Today, however, due to intensive hunting for them clumsy become quite rare.This king of the forest can feel safe only in protected areas.We have listed only the most prominent inhabitants, but not all.Ask a child who lives in the woods, and he will call a fox, wolf, hare, hedgehog sure.All this - the pine forest animals.Of the most famous birds should mention the magpie, and, of course, wood grouse, and then there is the other, and quite a lot.The most important thing - to find the time to learn more about them.Well, best to go to the pine forest, to breathe clean and healthy air and just relax in peace and quiet.It should be remembered that the forest - it is not only a home for animals, but also the lungs of our planet.And for a man who knows he has become a friend and assistant, pantry and pharmacy.
