Homeopathy
Good day to everyone! I hope you are all staying "well" during this cold and flu season!
As many of you are aware, we have just introduced our own homeopathic remedy called "Prevenaflu." This product is a fantastic addition to our existing product line! What I have found over the years, though, is that most people are unaware of what homeopathic medicines are and just how they work in the body. I figured this was a perfect opportunity to introduce homeopathic remedies to you, and let you in on how wonderful and effective these treatments really are!
I myself take homeopathic remedies and have been administering them to my children as well. This should give you some hint as to how confident I am in the safety of these treatments... especially being that my children are 4 and 6 years of age! Now that is Confidence!
Before I begin to give you a little more insight on how these ~ almost magical ~ remedies work, I would like to give a brief testimonial to the tremendous results I have experienced with the flu remedy myself: Pretty recently, there were many people becoming violently ill around me. It appeared as if everyone was sick, especially the adults as they seemed to be hit the hardest. I was feeling a bit "smug" at the time because I just 'knew' I was not going to get sick - because I never do! Well, low and behold, one day I noticed a small knot in my stomach. I was not sure what it was but I began to take the flu treatment "just in case." Throughout the day I became sicker and sicker... I thought the flu treatment was not working! I had all the symptoms; chills, fever, headache. To make a long story short, by 9:00PM (the SAME day), it was GONE. I mean totally wiped out! Now, let me just say the other people that had this same flu were bed ridden for up to 2 weeks. They told me it was the sickest they had ever been (or could remember being) in their lives. Needless to say, I will NEVER be without this flu treatment... "just in case!"
Homeopathic Medicine - is it safe?
The first concern of anyone using any new medicine is..."Is it safe?" The answer is yes, Homeopathic Remedies are very safe and effective. Homeopathy has a successful history of healing without side effects for more than 200 years! It is the number one form of natural flu treatments in France and is gaining acceptance in the US by some 25-50% throughout the last decade. Homeopathy has gained so much popularity - and is growing exponentially - because it works!
What are Homeopathics?
Homoeopathy is a revolutionary, natural medical science that is both gentle and effective. The remedies are prepared from natural substances to precise standards and work by stimulating the body's own healing ability. Homeopathy is safe for home use as there are no dangerous side effects. This, to many, is the principal that gets them interested in homeopathy in the first place. Homeopathy is safe because everything is very, very diluted (normally one part of the remedy to around 1,000,000,000,000 parts of water - now that's diluted!)
Homeopathic remedies (also called homeopathics or homeopathic medicine) are based on the principle of "like cures like." Similar principals form the basis of conventional allergy treatment i.e. where the allergic substance is given in a small dose, and in vaccines where an impotent form of the virus is given to bolster the immune system against that particular virus.
Why would you want to use Homeopathic Treatments?
Homeopathy is the second most widely used system of medicine in the world! This success is the result of many factors such as:
- Results can be rapid, complete and permanent!
- Homeopathy is completely safe. Even babies and pregnant women can use Homeopathy without the danger of side effects.
- Homeopathic remedies can also be taken with other medications without producing side effects.
- Homeopathic remedies are normally based on natural ingredients.
- Homeopathy works synergistically with your immune system (most conventional medicines suppress the immune system).
- Homeopathy is completely non-addictive - once relief is felt, you can stop taking them.
- Homeopathy is holistic. It treats all the symptoms as one, which in practical terms means that it addresses the cause, not the symptoms.
- Most often, symptoms do not recur
The physician's highest calling, his only calling, is to make sick people healthy --- to heal --- as it is termed. The highest ideal of therapy is to restore health rapidly, gently, permanently; to remove and destroy the whole disease in the shortest, surest, least harmful way according to clearly comprehensible principles. Samuel Hahnemann, Organon of Medicine, 1810.
Homeopathy was discovered and developed by Dr. Samuel Hahnemann, one of the great geniuses in the history of medicine. Dr. Hahnemann learned fourteen languages in order to read every medical text available in Germany in the late 1700's. His discovery of the fundamental principles of Homeopathic Medicine occurred when he was in his forties in the 1790's. He continued to practice, write, and teach until his death in 1843 at the age of 88 years.
The principles which Dr. Hahnemann discovered are still the basis of Homeopathic Medicine today. Over fifty thousand doctors around the world use Homeopathic medicines to treat their patients effectively, relieving their suffering, and removing disabilities.
Homeopathy is not a panacea for all illness. In its proper setting, as a self treatment of simple self-limited acute and first aid conditions or as a part of a professional practice of medicine treating serious illness, Homeopathy can be an effective therapy for many diseases.
People new to Homeopathy can, however, easily learn how to treat themselves and their families for simple acute illnesses and injuries. There are many books out there. I recommend one called: "Complete Guide to Homeopathy" Andrew Lockie. If you go to http://www.Amazon.com or http://www.ebay.com (or wherever you buy your books online) and do a search, many books will come up under this topic.
*Prevenaflu works best when taken at the first sign of flu. So make sure you have some on hand to fend off your flu symptoms at their onset. Use for the relief of symptoms of flu such as fever, chills body aches and pains. Always use when you have a clean pallet. Do not use directly after brushing teeth, eating mints or chewing gum.
*You should not stop taking any existing medication without first consulting your doctor.
