Get to know Homeopathic Ipecacuanha.

Over the years I have seen this remedy work again and again giving relief for severe symptoms. It is a must have for the home kit. Below are some indications for its use.

-Migraines and headaches accompanied by nausea and/ or vomiting.

-Asthma, asthmatic bronchitis, bronchiolitis, rattling, suffocative or wheezing coughs which may be accompanied by nausea and /or vomiting. Trouble breathing from the severity of cough.

-Heavy uterine bleeding with bright red, unclotted blood that comes in gushes. The period or hemorrhage may be painful and accompanied by nausea, vomiting, feeling lightheaded or fainting.

-Unrelenting nausea and vomiting. Vomiting does not give any relief from the nausea. Tongue is clean (not coated).

This is remedy is a good example of the homeopathic principle like cures like. The plant in its material form when ingested causes nausea and vomiting, when prepared homeopathically the remedy can relieve symptoms of nausea and vomiting.

Homeopathy for painful cracked skin.

The right homeopathic can help relieve the discomfort and seal up these cracks and even lessen the tendency to get them.

A person needing homeopathic Petroleum may get cracks on the fingertips, hands and fingers or possibly elsewhere. The cracks tend to be deep and bloody. This remedy can also offer relief for those who work with petroleum products in their work or hobbies and it aggravates their skin. In general the remedy Petroleum helps skin conditions that are worse in the winter and better in the summer.

Homeopathic Graphites helps cracks that ooze a honey colored discharge that dries into golden crystals. The skin cracks may present on the hands, fingers, bends of elbows or knees, behind the ears, or the lips. The person who may benefit from Graphites tends to have thick, calloused skin that is slow to heal.

I used to experience cracks every winter but it is a rare occasion now from using these remedies.

After seven years of relentless advocacy, sleepless nights, and thousands of grassroots voices speaking up...

Americans for Homeopathy Choice Action’s bill to protect homeopathy has been introduced in Congress.

This is the moment we’ve been fighting for — but it’s also the moment when we could lose it all if we don’t move fast.

The FDA has already removed certain homeopathic eye drops and injectables from the market. Without this bill, more medicines will disappear — for good.

That’s why I’m asking you to take 2 minutes right now to tell your Congressional representative and both your U.S. Senators to:

Support the Homeopathic Drug Product Safety, Quality and Transparency Act (HR 7050). We’re calling it the Homeopathic Medicines Act for short.
AFHC-A has written the message for you. All you have to do is click, review, and send.

Here’s what this bill will do:
*Create a legal pathway for human and animal homeopathic medicines to stay on the market.
*Protect the full range of homeopathic remedies — current and future — that meet safety and quality standards.
*Stop the FDA from removing entire categories of medicines ever again, while retaining the power to remove unsafe or adulterated products.
*Establish safety rules tailored to the unique nature of homeopathy — just as Congress has done for supplements, compounded medicines, and medical devices.

This is our moment of truth. The clock is ticking. Congress needs to hear from thousands of us in the next few days to know that Americans will not allow homeopathy to be erased.

This bill is our best chance in decades to make sure homeopathy thrives for generations. But it won’t pass without you.

Homeopathic remedies to help flu symptoms (Part 4). Ocillococcinum

It's the remedy nobody can pronounce. You can call it Oscillo or it is pronounced Ocillo-cos-in-um. This is a product sold only by Boiron. If you buy a pack it comes in little tubes. The directions say to use 1 tube full as a dose but, you can save pellets by just filling the cup on the back of the tube and taking that as a dose. This remedy is used at the first signs of a cold or a flu when you feel sick but the symptoms haven't fully developed. One capful can also be used as a preventative if you will be traveling or will be in a large crowd, this isn't something you want to take everyday though.

Some of the early symptoms of illness may include- throbbing or bursting headache, earache, inflamed red eyes, sneezing, stuffy nose, clear nasal discharge, hoarse voice, wet cough, fever with chills, muscle aches.

This is a must have remedy for your remedy stash and it is not included in common remedy kits. Boiron Oscillcoccinum is available at local natural food and natural pharmacies like Lionville Natural Pharmacies, Kimberton Whole Foods, and also at larger retailers that sell homeopathics. To buy this remedy from a homeopathic lab or supplier other than Boiron it is called Anas Barbariae.
