Questions about Homeopathy, Nutrition & Natural
Essence Formulas. |
|
Is
Homeopathy just New Age fluff? |
|
The term "homeopathy"
was coined 200 years ago by German physician Samuel
Hahnemann. Homeopathy is a science-based healing
system that draws upon a world-wide body of clinical
research into the holistic nature of illness. The
American Institute of Homeopathy was organized in
1844. Homeopathy developed popularity based on its
success in treating the various epidemic diseases that
raged throughout America and Europe during the 1800s.
Statistics indicate that the death rates in
homeopathic hospitals from these epidemics were often
one-half to as little as one-eighth those in orthodox
medical hospitals. (Ullman) |

What
does Homeopathy do and how is this important to me? |
|
Homeopathy encourages
the body to fight against the origin of an illness and
is known to actually change inherent patterns of
weakness and disease. Homeopathy seeks to ameliorate
symptoms by focusing on the source of the imbalance
causing them. As we age, the mind and body degenerate.
Consider homeopathy as a vitalizing, detoxifying and
regenerative approach to wellness. Homeopathy
complements other health and medical care. |

How
does Homeopathy reduce health costs? |
|
In France, where about
40% of physicians use homeopathy in the normal, daily
course of writing prescriptions, the government pays
for homeopathic remedies. In one study, it was
reported that the total costs associated with
homeopathic care per physician were about 50% less
than those costs associated with conventional patient
visits. In addition, patients under the care of a
homeopath took 3.5 times fewer sick days than those
people under conventional care. (Boiron) |

How
can I easily and effectively improve my health using
Homeopathics and good nutrition? |
|
For example, some
symptoms of digestive problems are: gas, bloating,
constipation, diarrhea, acid reflux and chancre sores.
Homeopathy can help you to improve your digestive
system and relieve digestive discomforts. The human
body is a complex chemical system. Good nutrition
supports good health. The foods we eat are chemicals
that alter our health in a positive or negative
manner. Numerous well-known vitamins, minerals, trace
elements, amino acids and enzymes play an essential
role in our normal health and metabolism. Their lack
or imbalance can result in dis-ease--both mental and
physical. Marginal deficiencies are widespread due to
modern agriculture, poor diet, processing, additives
and environmental pollution. |

Of
what value are Natural Essences? |
|
Life's stresses can
leave us feeling overwhelmed and depleted of vitality
and strength. Some examples of stress induced
discomforts are: anger, artist block, confusion,
discouragement, frustration, impatience, lethargy,
overwhelm and restless sleep. Left unchecked, these
can ultimately jeopardize our
health. Balancing a family and a career may cause
tremendous conflict and stress. Flower remedies can
assist in stabilizing emotions related to decision
making, adjusting to major life changes and handling
tough relationship problems. (Ellon) |

causes of stress and related physical illnesses.
Flower Essences have been used through the ages in
indigenous cultures of Australia, Egypt and many other
places of the world. In the 1930s, Dr. Edward Bach, a
noted British physician, bacteriologist and
immunologist discovered that the preparation of
flowering plants, trees and special waters alleviated
a broad range of emotional and psychological
difficulties. |
