• "Traumeel S" - remedy broad action on the inflammatory process of different localization. Usage this drug in treatment helps to increase the recovery rate without the use of antibiotics. The medication contains two different types of echinacea (angustifolia and purple), which contributes to a strong immunomodulatory effect. It is used for the prevention of acute respiratory infections, flu and treatment of: otitis media, tonsillitis, rhinovirus pathology, cough, sinusitis. The solution (ampoules), tablets and ointments are produced.
• "Lymphomyosot" is a complex, sought-after drug that has effective immunomodulatory, lymphatic drainage and detoxification effects.

Complexes of drugs can be taken to prevent colds once a day. All homeopathic medicines for a runny nose are prescribed in ultra-small doses. Their appointment is carried out an experienced doctor homeopath individually for each patient. Treatment lasts longer than traditional medications, but there are no side effects.

So, we offer homeopathy as a weapon against colds and flu. For two reasons.

The first reason is security. Whatever you say, everyone knows that using “chemical” tablets and drops during pregnancy is extremely undesirable. Therefore everyone reliable way treatment that avoids them should be welcomed. Homeopathic medicines are harmless. In the worst case, they won’t help, that is, nothing will happen.

The second reason is that these medications can be easily learned to use at home, long before visiting a doctor. Then, if you use the medicine correctly, the need for such a visit may disappear. But it won’t fall away - and in this case you cannot do any harm. After all, rare lucky people can see a doctor in the very first hours of illness (for example, children and the husband/wife of a homeopath).

How is homeopathy prescribed?

Prescribing a homeopathic medicine is simple - because the prescription is very logical.

For example, it is very difficult to prescribe rinsing with chamomile infusion or mustard plasters so as to know for sure that they will help you. How to predict this, using what tool? After all, all people are different...

In homeopathy there is such a precise tool, it is - law of similarity (the only law in such an inexact science as medicine). The essence of this law is that if the picture of your disease is very similar to the picture corresponding to the medicine, then it will cure you. These pictures were obtained from real life and rechecked thousands of times. Below they are summarized so that you can use them at home.

For example, if when you have a cold you feel as if you have inhaled the “vapors” of chopped onions, then the drug Allium flail, which is prepared from these same onions, will help you.

Cold “portraits”

You don’t have to be extremely observant to notice that all people get sick differently. Even if the disease is caused by the same virus. The symptoms of the disease directly indicate: to the patient what he should do, and to the doctor what medicine to prescribe.

“Cold portraits” is a description of the picture of the disease corresponding to each of the drugs. Look at them like in a mirror and determine which of the portraits is most similar to your case. This will be the application of the law of similars on which homeopathy stands. Of course, to successfully prescribe medication, you must first understand your symptoms. Analyze: what made you sick, when and why you feel worse and better, do you want to move, what are the characteristics of a runny nose and cough, what kind of unexpected strange thoughts come into your head.

Important!

• First of all, pay attention to strange and paradoxical symptoms - they are often the ones that point to the right medicine.
• The whole picture described here is rarely observed: it is enough if three or four key symptoms coincide.
• Diagnosis of illness (ARVI, influenza, chickenpox, rotavirus infection etc.) is important, but not decisive. Look at what drug the picture of the disease resembles!

These are not all the medications that can be used for ARVI. If you don’t find your picture here, consult a homeopath (now you can do this quickly via the Internet) or look at homeopathic literature.

Most often, you will feel the right medicine immediately. Then be sure to remember or write down for the future what medicine helped you and in what situation.

Where to get medications and how to take them

Homeopathic medicines are sold without a prescription in regular and special (homeopathic) pharmacies.

Buy all the medications: firstly, you won’t have to suddenly fall ill, think at night about where to get the medicine, and send someone for it in the morning; secondly, homeopathic medicines do not spoil (there is nothing there to spoil), with proper storage they have been used for decades. (The pharmacy indicates a shelf life of 2 years, however, this is because it is supposed to be so.) Improper storage is, say, with perfumes and aromatic oils, odorous medicines, or if you have poured something on them.

You can take them one grain at a time. Some doctors prescribe three, five, seven or eight. Quantity is of secondary importance. The main thing is to choose the right drug.

The medicine is taken 15-30 minutes before meals, dissolved in the mouth, without washing down. The frequency of administration is determined by the patient’s condition: while there is an improvement, the administration is not repeated; if the improvement has “stopped” - they are given again; if it was better and became worse again - they are given again (repeated as many times as the deterioration returns). If symptoms change, another medicine is selected. If the improvement persists, no medications are given at all. These are general principles, but if you give the medicine one more time, nothing dangerous will happen.

Homeopathy helps!

If you were unable to find a homeopathic medicine for yourself or your loved ones, do not draw far-reaching conclusions about the value of homeopathy in medicine in general and regarding yourself in particular. Homeopathy has nothing to do with it. It’s just that we and our knowledge are imperfect...

If you have tried many methods, but the disease does not go away or a complication has arisen, it makes sense to contact a doctor who has spent many years of his life studying this wonderful science. He knows at least fifteen times more drugs than you, and perhaps he will be able to find the key to you.

It is very possible that once you have felt the power of the “correct” homeopathic medicine, you will go to special courses where you study “home” homeopathy, acquire a medical book and a first aid kit. Then, feeling fully armed, you will look more boldly at the problem of ARVI. And this will be another reason to rejoice!

But alas! The benefit of this vaccine is questionable at best, and it is potentially dangerous, especially for the most susceptible groups of the population - children and the elderly. The vaccines are made from strains that circulated in the past year. Accordingly, they cannot protect against the new strain that appeared this year. The best evidence of this is the admission by health authorities this year that the flu vaccine "didn't arrive." Can you guess what they recommended? Re-vaccination! Or maybe there is something better?

After many years of homeopathic practice, I believe that there is nothing easier than curing the colds and flus that plague us every year. There is no need for vaccination, as a well-chosen homeopathic medicine will cure the flu within a few days if taken at the onset of the disease. Readers wary of remaining unvaccinated against influenza may be reminded of the success of homeopathy in treating the virulent Spanish flu pandemic in 1918. Studies conducted in British hospitals showed that those treated homeopathically had only 5 deaths. %, compared with 45% mortality among those treated with other drugs.

Let's say that this was before the discovery of antibiotics, but do medical authorities recommend antibiotics for the treatment of viral diseases like influenza? No. In patients with influenza stuffed with antibiotics, to all the troubles there are also problems of overgrowth of candidal fungi and increased resistance of microorganisms.

So how does a homeopathic doctor go about preventing and treating the annual flu? By examining 10 to 20 patients, we can identify the leading drug in the current epidemic. We record all the symptoms of these patients, and among them are immediately visible those that we call the main symptoms indicating a cure for this epidemic. The Asian flu, which began its invasion in December 1996, typically began with a sore throat, quickly progressing to extreme fatigue and muscle weakness (“like a truck had driven over me”), putting the patient to bed in a state of extreme weakness with a temperature of 39° C. The patient was in a state of stupor, he had neither thirst nor appetite, but had a severe headache. All these symptoms indicate influenza type Gelsemium. Patient taking GELSEMIUM every two hours, usually recovers from such flu on the same day, in as a last resort in two days. Put one grain Gelsemium 200C in 100 ml of water, dissolve and take one tablespoon every two hours. People who are hypersensitive to medications, vitamins, etc., and those who are not familiar with homeopathy, are better off starting with a milder dose, 30C.

Patients who did not receive Gelsemium, will move on to the second stage of this flu: an accumulation of viscous, viscous yellow mucus going to paranasal sinuses and ears, and flowing down the back wall of the throat. The remedy for this stage is KALI-BICH, as well as Gelsemium. Use the same dose, but dissolve the two medications separately in cups and give at least ten minutes apart.

“Wandering pneumonia,” as it is called in Western medicine, is the third stage of this particular flu. At this stage, a severe dry cough develops, aggravated at night and when lying down, so severe that I have had patients whose ribs were broken from such a cough. In this case, immediate relief will come BRYONIA, and you won’t need to take antibiotics. For Bryonia And Kali-bich use 30C or 200C dilutions as for Gelsemium: Dissolve one grain in 100 ml of water and take one tablespoon every two hours.

The cost of this procedure is one cent per day! Think about the schools that were forced to close because of this flu. What if during this epidemic every student received one teaspoon a day? Gelsemium How prophylactic, most students would never have caught the flu back then! And this without any side effects. The world is not yet ready for such simple measures, but you, parents, can protect your children at home with a teaspoon Gelsemium 200C per day.

So, Gelsemium was most definitely the remedy for this epidemic. But this does not mean that the same drug will be effective for the next flu. What can you do to protect yourself from further flu illnesses now and in the future? Even from a well-chosen medicine prolonged coughs and colds will disappear the first time. This is the magic of a minimal dose (a highly diluted homeopathic remedy).

I will present below common and frequently used remedies. All should be used in a potency of 30C (for sensitive patients) or 200C, one grain dissolved in 100 ml of water and given by teaspoon or tablespoon (for details see "Well Kept Homeopathic Secrets" in my previous newsletter, Vol. 2, No. 1) .

The most popular cold remedy ARSENICUM. Any cold that begins with a runny nose with clear discharge can be stopped with several doses. It stops at an early stage colds in the form of sneezing due to changes in weather, and colds that begin in the nose and then tend to spread to the throat. The patient is restless, anxious, asks for cold drinks, usually in small sips. There is also often a burning sensation in the throat, which can be relieved by drinking warm drinks.

ACONITUM has no equal for the sudden onset of a cold with high fever, usually starting at midnight. This often happens when a child frolics in the dry cold wind during the day. He then goes to bed without any symptoms, but suddenly wakes up around midnight screaming, restless, has a high fever that makes his whole body hot, and asks to drink cold water. It’s just a miracle how a couple of teaspoons of aconite lowers the temperature, and meanwhile the child falls asleep peacefully. The next morning the child wakes up as if nothing had happened. The storm of illness is calmed by the magic of aconite.

It happens that a child suddenly develops a high temperature (40°C) at about 15:00, the face becomes bright red, the limbs and body are icy. It felt like blood from all over my body had collected on my face. Huge pupils and a very strong headache. The child may have a wild expression on his face. If there is a cough, it will be a dry, tearing “machine gun” cough, sharp, intense, and repeated. BELLADONNA relieves fever, headache and cough.

Let's talk about a completely different type of cold. Sometimes a patient will tell you that the constant flow of mucus down the back of the throat is causing a cough from the throat. He has difficulty removing sputum due to its stringiness and viscosity. When you do manage to spit it out, it is yellowish-green. "When you reach out, take it KALI-BICH!" is our motto. This sticky mucus may also be the cause of sinus headaches or ear pain that mimics acute infection ear in children, and in these conditions Kali-bich also works well.

I recall the case of a woman whose illness always began with sudden chills and cough. One time she was unable to recover. This severe incessant cold got the better of her until I found out that her condition always worsened around 11 p.m., she had a strong tickling in the throat, tenderness of the trachea from the inside and pain on any pressure from outside, and with a debilitating cough There was barely a little sputum coming out. Taken together, these symptoms indicated RUMEX, and this medicine magically brought life back to this woman. After a week's use Rumex this suffocating cough and cold, which lasted two months, completely disappeared. Coincidence? This has happened too many times to be considered just a fluke. A well-chosen homeopathic remedy will cure any common cold, chills or coughing over and over again.

Everyone knows how watery your eyes are when you cut an onion. Thus, you are dealing with natural homeopathy! ALLIUM CEPA, red onion, indicated for colds with lacrimation; tears don't sting. Copious discharge from the nose - flows like a tap; the skin under the nose is torn, red, with burning pains. The throat feels raw, and this sensitivity quickly spreads into the chest; the cough is worsened by inhaling cold air. Colds usually appear after exposure to cold, damp wind and are worse in the evening and in a warm room. If you have these symptoms, you will love red onions in homeopathic doses!

For a hard, hollow cough in addition to the already mentioned Belladonna every mother should have SPONGIA TOSTA. This miracle of nature, obtained from a sea sponge, is the number one remedy for croup and that painful, barking, dull cough that torments the patient day and night. The cough sounds like sawing wood, and the fear of suffocation due to a feeling of a plug in the throat is strong.

We have a lot more drugs, used for coughs, colds and flu, their choice depends on the features mentioned above. Observing your symptoms will help your homeopath find the right remedy, or you can find one for yourself in one of the many wonderful homeopathic books available in stores healthy foods. When you have symptoms of illness, get better in one day, while others will be sick for weeks, and you will experience the power of homeopathy!

Homeopathy – separate species medicine that offers treatment with highly diluted drugs. Moreover, dilution in some preparations reaches such a level that in finished product molecules of the main drug are completely absent.

Modern medicine speaks of homeopathy as an imaginary treatment, there are several explanations for this:
• presence in homeopathic preparations of strong dilution medicines- therefore, there is nothing to be treated;
• during the manufacturing process, the percentage of the main drug is minimized, but dust particles and test tube molecules get into the solution, the effects of which are unpredictable;
• homeopaths claim that water remembers the medicines that were present in it, but “forgetting” water is a proven fact.

Medical organizations (World Health Organization, Scientific Community) equate the effect of homeopathy to the placebo effect.

Note! In the last century, placebo studies were conducted - patients were treated with tablets with simple lactose - as a result, the patients recovered.

Interestingly, a certain percentage of subjects noticed improvements even after revealing the truth to people. Then scientists explained this fact by the faith of patients in the method of treatment itself.

Principles of homeopathy

Diluted drugs are used as a treatment method, but there are principles for selecting a specific drug for a patient with a specific disease.

Homeopathy treatment adheres to the principles:
• Similar treatment – ​​a substance is used as a medicine, which in the body of a healthy person causes symptoms as in the patient.

Such a drug seems to shake up the body, causing an immune response that cures both the administered vaccine and the original disease.

• Treatment of a specific person - selection of funds is made after a detailed study of the patient’s chart. What helps one will do nothing for another.
• Testing of homeopathic remedies is carried out only on healthy people, negligible doses are used. One of the most famous studies is the treatment of a tumor from a bee sting with a drug based on bee venom.

Nowadays, there are homeopathic pharmacies that sell drugs mainly own production. The selection of drugs is carried out according to the principle of similarity - the patient’s complaints and the basis of the drug are compared.

Effective homeopathic remedies for colds

Note! Aconite has side effects - at the beginning of use, exacerbation of existing ailments and allergies may occur.

• Phytolacca– restores sore tonsils, has a beneficial effect on enlarged lymph nodes and other glands. Helps with colds, sore throat, and sore throat.
• Tonsilotren – also against inflammation of the tonsils, excellent for acute tonsillitis, colds. The drug is distinguished by its trouble-free tolerability and high efficiency.
• Influcid– homeopathic remedy against colds, acute respiratory infections and fever during colds from the largest German manufacturer homeopathic medicines.

In addition to these, homeopathic solutions such as bryonia, camphor, baptisia, dulcamara and gelsemium are common in the treatment of colds.

Note! When selecting homeopathic remedies, an important influence is exerted psychological type patient - for example, a certain remedy helps only a choleric person, but not other types of character.

Medicines are produced in the form of granules, tablets, dragees and drops. For children, drops are generally recommended; when prescribing dragees or tablets, they need to be mashed in a spoon and dissolved in boiled water.

Many companies view herbal medicine as a branch of homeopathy. They produce both herbal products and mixtures of homeopathic remedies with herbal dilutions.

This approach allows you to combine treatment of the disease and encourages the body to fight independently.

For example, infusions of herbs that have an anti-inflammatory effect are added to homeopathic medicines - good for sore throat, inflammation of the tonsils.

Rosehip is often added - it is rich in vitamin C and has the ability to form antibodies that protect the body from infections.

Medicinal fees

How to prepare homeopathic remedies

Homeopathic remedies can be made by hand; the technology is labor-intensive and time-consuming, but technically simple to perform.

The main material of the medicine is ground with sugar in a mortar until smooth. Depending on the desired degree of dilution, the grinding process with sugar is repeated the required number of times.

Liquid substances are diluted with water, dilution can be:
• decimal– 1 part of the substance is diluted with 10 parts of water. The procedure is repeated until the required degree of dilution. The next step is to take 1 part from the first step and dilute it with 9 parts of water, and so on.
• Hundreds- the same procedure, but the substance is diluted with 99 parts of water.

The frequency and quantity of administration depends on the degree of dilution. Basically, with a simple course of the disease, decimal dilutions are used with a course of 3-5 days, centenary dilutions are used large courses in the treatment of chronic diseases.

Note! Dilutions of type C12 (12 hundredth stages) and more no longer contain molecules of the main substance - the memory of water works, which “remembers” the necessary molecules.

Homeopathic remedies rarely cause side effects, but rare cases known. Therefore, it is better not to try to create a drug with your own hands - pharmacists are well versed in the actions, indications, dilutions and dosages of drugs.

Conclusion

Official medicine is trying to prove that homeopathy has more of an influence on a person’s psychology, on his ability to recover, believing in himself.

But there is no denying the powerful healing properties of homeopathy – and who cares how it works. Nobody asks how they work medications, if they really defeat the disease.

Homeopathy: treating colds safe methods

Cough with sputum: quick and effective treatment

Influenza is usually caused by viruses of types A, B, C. Respiratory syncytial virus, parainfluenza, herpes viruses, and rotaviruses cause ARVI.

Every year, viruses mutate, so that patients who were ill last year are defenseless next year against a new strain of the influenza virus.
