Homeopathy/was Re: Clarifying thinking and a gratuitous remonstration

[Guest guest]

:

I can tell you my experience, opinion with my homeopath and homeopathy. My

homeopath does nutrition first before giving any remedies. Her thinking is that

if the nutrition is right most often remedies are not needed. This proved to be

correct with myself and I was given only one remedy to take once. Did good

nutrition address the weak immune system and then the immune system address the

issue, my thinking is yes.

Remedies can sometimes be like any other traditional med, treating symptoms

only, never getting to the cause. Yes I know about

peeling the onion and do believe there is some truth to that, but not in every

case. It is my opinion only, that this is the proper way use this type of

intervention. If one continues to drink a six pack of beer everyday or eat sugar

coated cakes and so forth, no form of medical intervention is going be long

lasting. It has also been my experience that homeopathy does not address yeast

or the gut flora, this must be done in addition. To me a good homeopath

should be an nutritionist first. I know of many who use nothing but homeopathy

and have mixed results. I have no experience or knowledge of using homeopathy

for cancer.  

Arnica montana works well for pain and there are several other

remedies that work well for what they are intended. So yes homeopathy does work

for certain things, but others it does not, in my experience. Knowing what it

does work on is the key. To say it works on everything is not the case in my

experience.  I know some folks use nosodes with perceived success, is there any

way to verify this, NO. Can I say they do not work, NO again. This is my limited

knowledge and opinion on this subject. I do know in the dog world that nosodes

can produce a titer sometimes. I also know a dog who has never had a vaccine can

also have a titer. I also know a dog several generations removed from any

vaccine or nosode can still have a titer.

.....One discussion on this list that I would love to see would be on homeopathy.

The participants should be believers who concede that they could be wrong

and unbelievers who also concede that they could be wrong. I would gladly

assume the mantle of an unbeliever who could be wrong.
