Unicef Gives Vitamin A For Measles In Syria

What About Using Homeopathy For Measles As Well As Vitamin A? Homeopathy Is An Alternative To Vaccination Or Immunization.

Medical Aid To Syria Includes Vitamin A

News on New Zealand television TV3 17 December 2012 at 8AM.

The Director General of Unicef, speaking from Wellington, has just been interviewed on TV3. He was talking about the aid-initiative in Syria, which is being led by Unicef. His concerns were for the children of Syria, and that a measles outbreak could occur. This, unless preventive measures are taken, would be devastating for the vulnerable children in Syria, who have been affected by the disruption there. Homelessness and poverty are real issues.

Great to hear that Vitamin A is being given to boost the immunity of these children who are susceptible to measles. The Director General said that an immunization programme is being carried out, and that Vitamin A is being supplemented.

My new book has more information on natural remedies:

Vitamin A Can Work As A Prophylactic or Preventative. If illness develops, then Vitamin A can minimize the effects of the illness and make for a quick recovery:

At last. Vitamin A being used in an international attempt to help prevent or alleviate child-hood illnesses. Immunization should not be necessary at all, if adequate Vitamin A is provided, with Vitamin C, along with adequate nutrition. And if Unicef were to give out appropriate homeopathic medicine for the treatment of measles and other childhood infections, instead of immunizations or vaccinations, then things would be near perfect in my opinion.

Homeopathy Can Work As a Prophylactic and certainly can be used to alleviate the symptoms of illness if an infection has begun:

Many vaccinations or immunizations, are problematic to the health of the individual vaccinated. Adverse reactions can appear at the time, but the immune system can be damaged which can cause health problems later in life. Type 2 Diabetes is one condition which has been related to vaccinations. Obesity is another condition which may be related to vaccination. Then there is autism, depression, cancer, multiple sclerosis, parkinson’s, and arthritis, to name a few others. Other chemicals in our environment, such as toxic pesticides and herbicides, and harmful additives in food, also play a part in all these diseases, I am sure. But vaccinations are probably the very first assault on the immune system that a small child has to suffer.

So. It has taken a long time for Unicef to recognize that Vitamin A is effective against measles. Vitamin A will also help protect against other childhood illnesses, such as mumps, scarlet fever, whooping cough – you name it. Now Unicef is giving out Vitamin A, when orthodox medicine has for so long ignored this treatment. Let’s hope that they will not continue to exclude homeopathy from their range of treatments, but will begin to examine the use of homeopathy as an alternative to standard vaccinations and immunizations.

Note: Large doses of Vitamin C are also effective in resisting, combatting, or minimizing the effects of childhood illnesses such as measles, mumps, chicken pox, scarlet fever, and many others.

Homeopathy Considered Effective For Measles:

I think that there is a nosode which can be prescribed by a homeopathic physician to help prevent measles. But there are some common remedies which are also effective in helping prevent or to treat measles.

Dr James Stephenson, in ‘Helping Yourself With Homeopathic Remedies’, published in 1976 by Parker Publishing, New York, gives several remedies for measles. See the post after this one for details of how these remedies may be used.

Aconite, Antimon tart, Arsen alb, Bryonia, Chamomila, Rhus tox, Phosphorous, Pulsatilla and Sulphur, are some that Dr Stephenson recommends for measles. Each remedy has specific indications, and you would use the remedy which has the closest indications to those symptoms shown by the individual.

How To Make Home Made Homeopathic Remedies

Natural Remedies: Homeopathy And Why It Works

In the event that Homeopathic remedies may be denied us because drug companies manage to get them banned, OR standard allopathic medicines suddenly become unavailable, here is a method for making Homeopathic remedies at home. You never know – the day could come when we will need to produce our own medicines.

Homeopathy is a safe alternative to medicinal drugs. There are several thousand known remedies, with new ones being proven each year. When the right remedy, or remedies, are chosen, they can work miracles in diverting a range of illnesses, from childhood whooping cough, croup, bronchial complaints, scarlet fever, and tetanus, to arthritis, hypertension, rheumatism and depression.

Homeopathy is an example of ‘Isopathic’ medicine, that is, the treatment uses remedies from the same substance that will actually cause the illness in its undiluted form.

(Not to be confused with the other ‘I’ term in medicine – Iatrogenic – An Iatrogenic illness is doctor-caused illness, or drug-caused illness)

Some doctors and other health professionals claim that homeopathy cannot work, because ‘it doesn’t have anything in it’, but these people are ignorant about the way in which Homeopathy does its magic. They do not understand the principles of homeopathy. Yes, it has very little of the original substance in it, but the healing essence of the final homeopathic product is in its vibration, and not in a measurement of a ‘substance’. These sceptics are measuring the wrong thing in the homeopathic remedy, when they assess it as having ‘no active ingredient’, and what’s more, they have no experience of using it. Homeopathic remedies work by vibration, not by substance. Many doctors and drug pharmacists cannot grasp this concept, because they have been conditioned to think in material terms of substance alone.

These sceptics seem to fail to see that ‘like cures like’, and that we often use the principles of homeopathy in our daily lives without even thinking about it. They are also blind to the fact that homeopathic principles have been used in some allopathic medicines for some time now. Quinine is one example. Digitalis is another. X-Rays for skin cancer is another. All these things can produce the disease which they are used to treat.

The original substance in a homeopathic remedy is chosen because of the symptoms it produces in a healthy individual. A common, everyday example of how this happens is in the humble onion, and its relative the garlic clove. If you eat these things raw, or even peel an onion, and you are in a healthy condition, you are likely to get a runny nose, or begin sneezing or coughing. You may even feel your temperature rising. These are healthy reactions. Well, when you are sick, onions and garlic can be used to CURE these symptoms, these complaints. If you feel you are getting the flu, or a cold, then onions and garlic are the best things to take to alleviate those symptoms which present as a runny nose, sneezing and a temperature rise. And so you can use the homeopathic preparation, made from the plant or substance which produces those symptoms, to reverse the condition.

I have come across two methods for making homeopathic remedies, and I shall describe both of these here.

One method for the process is derived from the book by the homeopathic physician Dr James H. Stephenson, M.D., entitled ‘A Doctor’s Guide to Helping Yourself with Homeopathic Remedies’. This book was first published by Parker Publishing Co. Inc., New York, in 1976. I have added to the basic steps suggested by Dr Stephenson, with a few pointers of my own, to make it easier for the beginner.

Here Is How You Make Your Own Homeopathic Remedy:

Use a small, clean, sterilized bottle. It is important that the bottle does not have a trace of another herb or substance in it. However, you can use the bottle unwashed if it is the container which held the herb tincture or essence you wish to use as your homeopathic remedy.

You are going to dilute your original essence either six times, or twelve times. These dilutions are the common, recognized potencies for basic homeopathic medicine. The six-dilution method results in what is called a 6C potency, the remedy which has been diluted twelve times is called a 12C potency.

First of all, you need to have a small quantity of the substance you wish to make into a remedy. Make an infusion of the herb you wish to use, or make an essence by soaking a little of the herb in alcohol for a few days. Or, as mentioned above, simply use the unwashed container which held the original remedy you wish to use.

To make the first dilution, take one part of the original essence, or ‘Mother Tincture’, and add it to nine parts water. See the recipe below for making the ‘Mother Tincture’.

Dr Stephenson endorses the idea which many homeopathic experts have, that enough of the original substance is left inside the bottle to begin the second dilution, after you discard the first dilution from the bottle. But the theory is that with each dilution, you use one part of the solution containing the substance, and nine parts water or diluted alcohol. If you use this method, then I think that this will result in a ‘C’ potency, which is 1:100 – one part original essence and 99 parts water or alcohol.

Dr Stephenson says that the ‘C’ potency is made from the ratio of 1 part activating substance, and 9 parts water or alcohol. But other books give the 1:10 ratio as being an ‘X’ potency, which makes sense.

So – Decimal factor ‘X’ is in dilution of 1:10.

Decimal factor ‘C’ is in dilution of 1:100.

Whichever of these systems you use, you would use the same chosen ratio each time you dilute and succuss the mixture to the required potency. i.e. if you simply use the remains in a bottle, which would give you a ‘C” potency, then you would use a similar amount of remedy in the bottle each time, which will keep the ‘C’ ratio consistent: Simply tip out the remains after each dilution and shake up (succussion) before filling the bottle again.

If you decide to make the ‘X’ dilution, then you would use one/tenth of the remedy each time, filling up the bottle with 9/10 water or alcohol or both.

You must shake the solution vigorously with every dilution. Put the lid on the bottle and shake it hard, banging the bottle on the back of the arm each time. This is known as ‘succussion’. Succussion releases the energy of the material being used, fixing it into the dilution. Dr Stephenson recommends 15 vigorous shakes with each dilution. Some people use more shakes each time.

Each time, after the succussing of the remedy, empty out the bottle until you have one tenth of the remedy left in the bottle. Add more diluting liquid to top the bottle up, and succuss again. Do this either six times, or twelve. With the last dilution and succussion, it is important to use some alcohol as your last diluting substance. This will keep the remedy for years, if you add a quantity of vodka to the last shaking. If you use all water, the remedy will not last more than a few days.

I use pure vodka to keep my remedies. One part vodka, one part boiled water or distilled water.

Note: Sensitive people need to take care when making home-made homeopathic remedies. Coffea, I have found, is extremely potent before it has been diluted properly. The in-between dilutions are very strong – much stronger than coffee in its pure form.

Reactions can be minimized by using rubber gloves, and by using just small amounts of the product when making your remedies. A 15ml bottle is ideal.

How to make your own Mother Tincture: Chop up your chosen material, such as a herb and soak it in alcohol or a mixture of 90% alchol and 10% water.

Put on the lid of the jar and leave for two weeks. Shake the herbal mixture several times each day to distribute the healing ingredients through the tincutre.

After two weeks you can store the Mother Tincture indefinitely by keeping it in an air-tight bottle and keeping it in the dark. Using a brown or dark green bottle is preferable.

Spider’s Web To Treat Asthma, Consumption, Fever, And Ague

My ancient “Vitalogy Book of Food and Harmless Home Remedies”, written by two doctors in 1904, gives some fascinating information about the use of Spider’s Web, Araneas Tela as, an oral remedy. It is, apparently, a natural remedy that not only was used in helping to heal cuts and wounds, but was also recommended for treating asthma, fever and ague.

This Vitalogy Book of Food and Harmless Home Remedies really does seem to have some wonderful recipes in it. However, I wonder about the safety of some of the given remedies. No different to the questionable use and safety of some modern-day medicines, I guess.

Whilst I have never ever tried taking a spider’s web orally, I have often snatched down a nice, lengthy cobweb to wrap around a cut on myself or my children. Cobwebs for wounds is a common old folk-lore remedy. Cobwebs have properties which help to stem bleeding, which makes them a great first-aid tool, especially if you do not have plasters or other help at hand.

Merrilyn’s new book is out on Amazon:

https://www.amazon.ca/Cancer-And-Good-Health-Notebook-ebook/dp/B01DHMH6DG

Although I might try putting a spider’s web around a cut or wound, swallowing pilules of spider web as an experiment does not appeal to me. But, if for some reason I was suffering a life-threatening asthma attack, stuck out in the country with no reliable medicine, I might even try swallowing a spider’s web, if I could find one, in the hope that it might avert the attack.

So – for your information, I quote this excerpt which comes from the pens of ‘Vitalogy’ Doctors Wood and Ruddock. Nowadays, I guess we call ‘Vitalogy’ Naturopathy, or Holistic Medicine. Doctors Wood and Ruddock copyrighted their health manual in 1904. My copy of the book was published by the ‘Vitalogy Association’ of Chicago, Illinois, in 1923. The Queen Mother, who was a great fan of homeopathic medicine, and my Grandma Edie, would have been just four years old when this book was written, and 23 when my copy was published.

Doctors Wood and Ruddock say, in ‘Vitalogy’, p.582-3:

‘The cobweb of the spider is said to be almost a specific for fever and ague. When rolled into an ordinary-sized pill, two or three will be generally sufficient to effect a cure, but more may be taken if necessary, and to be used every two or three hours.

Some physicians give it in about five-grain doses. For consumption, where it has been used, it is said to have produced surprising effects.

It is also very valuable in asthma.

Applied externally, it will check the bleeding of wounds. The brown or black spider produces for the purposes above indicated the best web, and it is usually found in cellars, dark out-houses and barns.

It is recommended in wakefulness, spasms and nervous excitement, and generally produces the most delightful state of bodily and mental tranquility. (WARNING – THIS SOUNDS LIKE A SEDATIVE. REMEMBER THAT NOT ALL SPIDER’S WEBS MAY BE SAFE TO USE AS ORAL MEDICINE. SOME OF THOSE AUSSIE ONES MIGHT BE LETHAL, SINCE MANY OF THEIR SPIDERS ARE SO POISONOUS) It is given in doses of four and five grains, in the form of pills, three times a day.

Homemade Gluten Free Pickled Ginger (Uncooked)

Herbal Recipe: How To Make Your Own Gluten Free, Uncooked, Pickled Ginger.

This easy recipe can be used as a condiment and as an herbal remedy.

Making your own pickled ginger is a rewarding exercise. Apart from the creative process of making it, you can also gain satisfaction from the knowledge that your homemade product does not contain any added harmful preservatives which a commercial product might use.

Homemade pickled ginger is useful as an addition to curries, meat, fish or vegetarian dishes, and can also be used as a medicine, taken a teaspoon at a time.

Ginger has been used in traditional Chinese and Indian ayurvedic medicine for thousands of years.

Ginger is an amazing herb: In modern language, it is known as a ‘blood thinner’, as a heart and circulation booster, as a digestive aid, as an antidote to nausea and food-poisoning, for motion sickness, as an antioxidant and detoxifyer of poisons in the liver, and as a catalyst for other herbs and nutrients to be assimilated efficiently. It is a common ingredient of many traditional herbal remedies, because of its ability to increase the effectiveness of herbs and nutrients in foods.

So – here is how to make your gluten-free, homemade pickled ginger.

Take fresh, peeled, ginger roots. Grate up enough to fill two cups.

Pour boiling water over the grated ginger, and leave to soften for one minute.

Strain the ginger and reserve the water for tea,

Into a glass jar which has a good fitting lid, put:

1 cup wine vinegar or cider vinegar

2/3 cup brown sugar

1 teaspoon sea salt

Stir the sugar and salt into the vinegar.

Now pack your grated and softened ginger into the jar, making sure that the ginger is covered with the vinegar. Top up with a little more vinegar if necessary.

Put on the lid and shake for a minute or so.

Leave the jar on the window-sill for two days, shaking every day.

After two days, put the pickled ginger into the fridge and use as needed.

This is best if it is used within two weeks.

A slice of pickled beetroot added to the jar will give the ginger a pinkish colour. Alternatively, you can buy some shiso leaves from an Asian grocer, and add a little to the pickle mixture. These will give your homemade pickle a pink colour.

As a digestive tonic, take one teaspoonful per day at mealtimes. Note: Do not use ginger in your food, or as a herbal remedy if you are taking a chemical blood thinner such as warfarin. Ginger, like Vitamin C, and Vitamin C rich fruits such as grapefruit, is a natural blood-thinner, so if you take it along with a prescribed medicine such as Warfarin, then you will be doubling up on the blood-thinning effect. Use only one or the other – traditional remedies, or the medication prescribed for you.

Personally, I think it is better to use herbal remedies, and eat the appropriate foods, so that the blood is thinned naturally, rather than take pharmaceutical preparations. Drugs which are commonly prescribed often turn out to have very deleterious effects on the vital organs and nervous system of the body. The side effects of warfarin are not so pleasant, and it can even induce a stroke, the very thing it is meant to prevent. But if you have decided on the standard medical approach for preventing strokes, then do not use ginger as well.

Possible Homeopathy For Meningitis If Vaccinations Don’t Work

Homeopathy And Vitamin C Therapy

Sadly, a young girl has just died of Meningococcal disease in Wellington, New Zealand. She was only twelve. She had been vaccinated for the disease, but succumbed to it anyway. Which poses the question: How long ago, I wonder, was she vaccinated for Meningitis, and is it possible that she succumbed to the disease BECAUSE she had been vaccinated?

Alternatives to Vaccination should be being explored by doctors all over the world. And we hope that the drug companies do not get to patent ‘natural’ remedies so that they can make a profit from such simple remedies as Vitamin C, and Homeopathy.

Merrilyn’s new book is available on Amazon:

https://www.amazon.ca/Cancer-And-Good-Health-Notebook-ebook/dp/B01DHMH6DG

Many doctors and hospitals, backed by drug companies who lay down the law on these things, are reluctant to use alternative therapies such as Homeopathy and Vitamin C treatment. Even when patients are dying in hospital, when vaccinations and antibiotics have not worked, and the patient has been given up for dead, they will give every excuse for NOT trying Vitamin C therapy. Homeopathic treatments are not used either, because drug companies do not want any competition for their pharmaceutical drugs which make them trillions of dollars of profit every year.

A case of swine flu in 2012, Auckland, New Zealand proved that hospitals are beholden to the drug companies and will do anything to avoid using an alternative therapy to the one provided by the drug companies. They would rather let a person die than to use any alternative remedy which might save that person’s life. Because, if they use an alternative which works when their antibiotics have failed, then people will question the value of antibiotics and vaccinations. The drug companies do not want people to question their methods. Legal drugs are big business, not only for the pharmaceutical companies, but for the whole of the medical profession.

Vitamin C Can Kill Viral Illnesses, as well as Bacterial Illnesses: In 2010, a man who had swine flu was being treated in an Auckland hospital. Antibiotics were failing, and the man’s life was nearing its end. Nurses had been instructed to take him off life support and to let him die. Luckily, his family were present, and they did not allow this to happen. They asked for Vitamin C to be administered in megadoses, as they had heard that Vitamin C could cure swine flu, as well as many other infectious diseases, if it is given in megadoses. The hospital refused, saying that Vitamin C would not work, and the man would die anyway. The family said “If you don’t give him Vitamin C, and he dies, then we will sue you.” So, after a prolonged and tense debate, the hospital gave the man the Vitamin C, and he recovered.

I believe that megadoses of Vitamin C should be given to children suspected of having Meningococcal Disease. Even before the disease has been analyzed properly, Vitamin C could be safely given. Since it can kill both viral and bacterial infections, it is the best measure to take if you are not sure what the disease is. The diagnosis of the girl who died of Meningococcal disease on Monday is still given as ‘suspected meningitis’, according to television news on Wednesday, which gives an indication of the uncertainty around her disease.

Consequently, while the ‘word is out’ about Vitamin C curing swine flu and other infectious diseases, most doctors would not have any idea what homeopathic remedies might be effective in treating a case of cholera, or whooping cough, swine flu, or anything else. Doctors have been largely kept ignorant about how to use Homeopathy, and indeed, most of them think that Homeopathy does not work, because the myth that homeopathy does not work has been perpetuated by the drug companies since about 1920. “There is nothing in it”, they say.

How Homeopathy Was Suppressed By Powerful Drug Companies: In the 1920’s, the American drug companies sought to silence homeopathic doctors, by getting government agencies such as the FDA to make it illegal for any practicing doctor to publish any research whatever on homeopathy. ALL RESEARCH FINDINGS, AND PROVINGS OF THE HOMEOPATHIC REMEDIES, WERE FORBIDDEN TO BE PUBLISHED IN ANY MEDICAL JOURNAL, OR ANY OTHER PUBLICATION.

This wiped out the main competition to the drug companies empire building. Many homeopathic hospitals and teaching schools in America were closed down, and doctors who still practiced homeopathy were declared to be ‘quacks’.

However, in England, homeopathy did not suffer such a tragic fate. Everyone has heard of the Royal Homeopathic Hospital in London. Until recently, there were around 20 Homeopathic hospitals operating over the United Kingdom. Difficult economic times has led to the closure of many of these hospitals, as well, I think, as the declining knowledge about Homeopathy. Drug companies fiercely promote their medicines world-wide: They have the money behind them to promote and sell their pharmaceuticals. Whereas homeopathy is not ‘patented’ by anyone: There is no money to be made out of Homeopathy. The idea with Homeopathy is that you do not put people ‘on’ to medications for life, essentially so that you can profit from them. Generally speaking, in homeopathy, you treat the person until they get well, in which case there is no reason to keep taking a medicine anymore.

The Royal family were great supporters and believers of homeopathy. The Queen Mother used it all her life and lived to be 101. (A friend of mine said, when I told him about the Queen Mother – “Well – imagine – she might have lived to be a hundred and ten if she hadn’t used all that stuff! – It might have ruined her health.” A joke, of course)

Alternatives To Vaccination: Vitamin C and Homeopathy. Vitamin C is well-known as a prophylactic and a remedy for infectious diseases. But Homeopathy works in preventing and curing illness too, if the right remedy can be found.

Some Homeopathic Remedies Which Might Be Effective In Cases Of Meningococcal Disease:

Dr John H. Clarke, M.D. suggests several remedies for meningitis in his book ‘The Prescriber’. These remedies have specific potencies which actually have to be made up by a homeopathic chemist. They might be of interest to some doctors who wish to explore homeopathic alternatives to antibiotics and other drugs. Some of these Homeopathic remedies which Dr Clarke recommends are:

Arnica 1, 1h. if the meningitis is due to a bang on the head,

Aconite 3, 1h when the patient has become fearful, anxious, restless, and has dry skin and is thirsty.

Belladonna 3, 1h. for when the patient is delirius, trying to run away, with flushed face and dilated pupils.

Bryonia 3, 1h. when there is pain with white tongue and nausea, but not much delirium, as well as depression and stupor.

Helleborus n. 3, 1/2h. for when there is pain at the back of the head and neck accompanied by much depression.

Apis 3X, 1h. if the patient is extremely nervous and makes shrill cries during sleep.

Sulphur 6, 1h for use after Apis or other remedies, especially if the patient has a hot head but cold feet.

For Tubercular meningitis – Dr Clark recommends Bacil. 30-200 taken in a single dose of 4 globules.

If the meningitis is due to a knock on the head, with resulting concussion: Give either Apis or Bryonia followed by Arnica.

Zinc. met. 6, 2h can be given after Belladonna or Helleborus, when the fever has subsided.

For “Typhoid meningitis” or “Spotted Fever”, Dr Clarke recommends

Meningococcin 6-30, 4h. – and Cicuta virosa 3, 1h. If symptoms of blood poisoning are present, use Crotalus 3, 1h. For pain getting worse behind the ears and down to nape of neck, use Am.c. 200, 2-4h. If all else fails to relieve the spasm, use Actimon r. 3, 1/4h whilst spasms continue. Then Gelsemium 1, 2h if there is paralysis, and for any deafness – first a 6, 4h followed by Sulphur 6. 4h.

Read Dr Clarke’s booklet ‘The Prescriber’ for more details.

Of course, a doctor must be seen if your child is sick. Meningitis is a notifiable disease, and it is very dangerous. These homeopathic remedies might be useful to keep on stand-by, though, in case of an emergency, or in case vaccination has not worked to keep the illness at bay.

Homeopathy For Emergencies: I would keep these remedies in my medicine cupboard for emergencies: Arnica 30, Aconite 30, Bryonia 30, Belladonna 30, Mercurius 30, Ledum 30, Sulphur 30, Helleborus 30, and Drosera 30. You would use the chosen remedy every 15 minutes for around 6 doses, then spread the dose out to half hourly, then hourly, lessening off the dosage as the patient improves. Usually, after the first day of being given the appropriate remedy, the patient begins to improve. Then you can give a dose of just four or five drops once a day for about a week, or as long as it takes for the patient to recover. If there is no change after using a remedy for several hours, then the remedy might need to be changed.

The Usefulness Of Keeping Homeopathic Remedies At Home: It can be very frightening in those wee small dark and lonely hours of the morning when your child suddenly becomes sick. In these cases, you can use the appropriate homeopathic remedy while you are on your way to the doctor’s or the hospital. This pro-action, of taking a homeopathic remedy before any other medication can be sought, could just save a person’s life. You might even find that by the time a doctor gets to see you at the hospital some hours later, that your child might have nearly recovered from having been given the right remedy. Such a case I always found to be with using Drosera for Whooping Cough and Croup. Once I remember being suddenly alerted in the middle of the night, hearing my baby suddenly having difficulty breathing. I gave him Drosera 6C or 30C immediately, whilst we were preparing to race to the emergency doctor. On the way, in the car, after having given him a few more doses of Drosera, we realized that the emergency situation was no more. He was breathing normally again. So we went home.

Ledum is a prophylactic (a preventer) of Tetanus. I never had any of my children vaccinated and used homeopathic Ledum instead, whenever I thought that Tetanus could be present. Apparently, no case study has ever shown that the Tetanus vaccine really does anything to stop people getting tetanus. As is the case with the whooping cough vaccine, or the meningitis vaccine, people can still get these disease though they have been vaccinated. Which is a good enough reason to keep the appropriate homeopathic remedies in the cupboard.

It is always best to get professional advice from a qualified Homeopath before taking any Homeopathic remedy, especially if you or your child is unwell. It is important to get the RIGHT remedy. Sometimes there are several remedies which will do the trick, but sometimes, there might be only one or two which will cure the condition. Also, sometimes you may need a constitutional remedy as well, and for this, you need to have a proper consultation, with your ‘case’ being taken, so that the appropriate remedy can be found.

In an emergency you may not have time to see a homeopath, especially if vaccination has failed. So go along to a qualified homeopath NOW, to get his advice on what remedies you should keep in the medicine cupboard, in case of an emergency.
