Rowan Blossoms: A Belarusian Remedy? A recent video circulating online details the purported medicinal benefits of rowan (rowan tree) flowers, a traditional remedy in some parts of Belarus. The video, uploaded by user 'сила природы' on May 22nd, 2025, shows a container of rowan flowers and details their use in treating various ailments. The author claims these flowers possess anti-inflammatory, astringent, and diuretic properties, and can be used to treat coughs, liver diseases, and even hemorrhoids. The video provides instructions for preparing an infusion, but also cautions against use during pregnancy or with certain conditions.
