The article presents didactic material developed both for members of the “Valeology” circle of the Kyiv Children and Youth Palace, and for students of the "Human Health" specialty. The developed methodological complex is aimed at an in-depth study of the causes, nature and prevention of urolithiasis. Generalized data on the formation of concretions of three types: phosphates, urates and oxalates.
Phytotherapeutic approaches for the treatment and prevention of urolithiasis were analyzed. Emphasis is placed on spicy and aromatic plants, which have not only medicinal, but also nutritional value. The following spicy and aromatic plants are proposed for the development of the laboratory lesson: black pepper, medicinal ginger, peppermint and saffron. On the basis of experiments to study the lytic activity of the studied plants, an algorithm was created to prevent the formation of concretions of all kinds.
In the course of a valeological experiment to study the lytic activity of spicy-aromatic plants, it was shown that all the studied plants, except saffron, have lytic activity. Peppermint extract, which completely dissolved urates, reduced the mass of oxalates by 50 % and reduced the mass of phosphates by 40 %, turned out to be the most universal means of preventing nephrolithiasis. Black pepper extract dissolves oxalates with little effect on urates and phosphates. At the same time, medicinal ginger extract most actively dissolves phosphates with little effect on oxalates and urates. During the pedagogical experiment, the results of the assimilation of knowledge of Gurtkiv residents who studied the topic “The problem of nephrolithiasis and the prevention of calculi formation with the help of spicy-aromatic plants” were compared using the lecture method and the above-described laboratory method. As evidenced by the results of statistical data processing of the pedagogical experiment using the method of O. O. Kiverlyaga, the laboratory method developed by us increases the knowledge level of Gurtkiv residents by 12,7 %, and the lecture method by 9,5 %.
