Russia is the first country in the world to discover and drink birch juice. A long time ago, Russians began to cut down birch trees to build houses. In the process of cutting down a large number of birch trees, Russians found that the fallen birch trees would shed some white juice similar to water. But at first people didn't care.
Later, due to high-intensity work and the lack of water resources in the forest, loggers tried to drink birch juice to quench their thirst, but found that birch juice was slightly sweet and delicious, and could even be drunk directly as a drink. With the passage of time, Russians began to consciously collect and store these juices, and birch juice has become one of the favorite drinks of Russians.
It is said that the medicinal value of birch juice was discovered in a fire. In that fire, many people were burned in the process of fighting the fire. People rushed to put out the fire with water and cool their skin. Because there is not enough water in the village, many people use birch juice conveniently.
Some injured people who used water to cool down developed skin infections and ulcers, while those who used birch juice quickly healed the wounds and skin. Later, after a period of investigation and experiments, doctors discovered the medicinal value of birch juice. To this day, doctors in eastern European hospitals still treat burn and scald patients by applying birch juice and medicine.
