Hepatitis and Homeopathic Treatment
Hepatitis is a serious disorder in which liver cells become inflamed. The inflammation is most occurs because of a virus. It can also be caused by an overactive immune system, and from drugs, alcoholism, chemicals, and environmental toxins. Viral hepatitis usually appears as type A, B, or C.
Type A, the most common form of viral hepatitis, often affects school-aged children. The disease is transmitted by contaminated food or water, or contact with a person ill with hepatitis A. The hepatitis A virus is shed in the stools of an infected person during the incubation period of 15 to 45 days before symptoms occur and during the first week that the person feels sick. Blood and other body fluids may also carry the infection. The virus does not stay in the body after the infection has resolved, and, unlike hepatitis types B and C, there is no "carrier" state (a person who spreads the disease to others but does not become ill).
Hepatitis types B and C affect people of all ages. Most people who become infected with hepatitis B get rid of the virus within 6 months. This type of short infection is known as an "acute" case of hepatits B. Approximately 10% of people infected with the hepatitis B virus develop a chronic, life-long infection. People with chronic infection may or may not have symptoms. Those who do not develop symptoms are referred to as carriers. Having chronic hepatitis B increases your chance of permanent liver damage, including cirrhosis (scarring of the liver) and liver cancer.
Hepatitis B
Contact with blood in work setting: this puts physicians, nurses, dentists, and other healthcare personnel at particular risk
Sex with multiple partners without the use of a barrier such as a condom
History of blood transfusion prior to the early 1990's
Receiving a tattoo with contaminated instruments
IV drug use with sharing of contaminated needles
Birth to a hepatitis B infected mother
Travel to underdeveloped nations and immigrants from areas where disease rates are high (namely, the Asia Pacific and Mediterranean regions and southern Africa)
Having the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) puts you at greater risk for chronic hepatitis and its potential complications
Homeopathy
There have been few studies examining the effectiveness of specific homeopathic remedies. A professional homeopath, however, may recommend one or more of the following treatments for viral hepatitis based on his or her knowledge and clinical experience. Before prescribing a remedy, homeopaths take into account a person's constitutional type. In homeopathic terms, a person's constitution is his or her physical, emotional, and intellectual makeup. An experienced homeopath assesses all of these factors when determining the most appropriate remedy for a particular individual.
Aconitum — used during initial phases of hepatitis when the individual has a fever, jaundice, and sharp pains in the liver; can be used in newborns
Belladonna— used in early stages of hepatitis when the individual has occasional liver pains that are worsened by inhalation and movement
Chelidonium— for individuals with pain that originates in the liver and extends to the back and right shoulder; this remedy is most appropriate for individuals who have gray or yellow loose stools, fever, and jaundice; a craving for milk may be present; lying on the left side and ingesting hot food or drink may bring some relief
China— for individuals with a tender liver and a sensation of fullness in the stomach; the individual may burp frequently although it provides no relief; he or she may also have cravings for sweets, cold drinks, or coffee
Lycopodium— one of the primary remedies for hepatitis in children and adults; this remedy is most appropriate for individuals who feel tension in the liver area, have difficulty standing up, and feel full after eating only small amounts of food
Mercurius— for individuals with a swollen, tender liver and jaundice; the tongue may also be yellow and swollen; this remedy is most appropriate for individuals with clammy perspiration, excessive salivation, a sensitivity to temperature variations, and bleeding gums; lying on the right side is painful and stools may be light gray or green
Phosphorus— for individuals with burning pains under the right rib cage and in the back between the shoulder blades that are relieved by cold drinks; this remedy may be used in newborns with jaundice

PRINCIPLES OF HOMEOPATHY
Homeopathy rests on three principles.
1.Like cures like For example, if the symptoms of your cold are similar to poisoning by mercury, then mercury would be your homeopathic remedy.
2.Law of Infinitesimals/Minimal Dose
The remedy is taken in an extremely dilute form; normally one part of the remedy to around 1,000,000,000,000 parts of water.
3.The Single Remedy No matter how many symptoms are experienced, only one remedy is taken, and that remedy will be aimed at all those symptoms.

"Unless the laws of chemistry have gone awry, most homeopathic remedies are too diluted to have any physiological effect...." ---Consumer Reports (January 1987)
"Many previous studies have demonstrated that homeopathy has an effect over and above placebo....It has been established beyond doubt and accepted by many researchers, that the placebo-controlled randomised controlled trial is not a fitting research tool with which to test homeopathy." --a spokeswoman from the Society of Homeopaths

DENGUE FEVER AND HOMEOPATHIC TREATMENT
DENGUE FEVER
Dengue hemorrhagic fever is a severe, potentially fatal infection that occurs when someone with immunity to one type of Dengue virus is infected by a different type. It is spread by certain mosquitoes (Aedes aegypti) which bite primarily during the day. Causes, incidence, and risk factors Four different dengue viruses have been implicated in both dengue fever and dengue hemorrhagic fever. Dengue hemorrhagic fever occurs when the patient contracts a different dengue virus after previous infection(s) by another type. Prior immunity to a different dengue virus type is important in the production of this severe disease. Worldwide, more than 100 million cases of dengue fever occur every year. But this year in India it is too much. Risk factors for dengue hemorrhagic fever include having antibodies to dengue virus from prior infection and being younger than 12, female, or Caucasian. Symptoms Early symptoms of dengue hemorrhagic fever are similar to those of dengue fever, but after several days the patient becomes irritable, restless, and sweaty. These symptoms are followed by a shock-like state. Bleeding may appear as pinpoint spots of blood on the skin (petechiae) and larger patches of blood under the skin (ecchymoses). Bleeding may occur from minor injuries. Shock may cause death. If the patient survives, recovery begins after a one-day crisis period. Early symptoms include the following: • Fever • Headache • Muscle aches • Joint aches Malaise • Decreased appetite • Vomiting Acute phase symptoms include the following: Shock-like state o Sweaty (diaphoretic) o Cold, clammy extremities • Restlessness followed by: o Worsening of earlier symptoms o Petechiae o Ecchymosis o Generalized rash
Treatment Eupt perf is very good medicine preventive as well as curative also. But it is effective at 200 potency. For prevention take daily one dose continue sly for 4 days and if it in acute case of fever then 3-4 hrly Rhus Tox can be given according to need.
Aedes Aegypti mosquitos are known to carry Dengue., that causes epidemic of two types that carry Dengue Fever 1, is non-lethal variety, and Dengue Hemorragic Fever 2, which is a killer. The "tiger mosquito" carries DHF2, the lethal variety.
Here's what you can do to protect yourself:
1. Mosquitos like to breed in stagnant, still water such as in the bottom of flower pots, pain cans, birdbaths, coolers and old tires. Dump out any water collected in your back yard to keep yourself self.
2. If you live along a creek or lake, wear long sleeves. If you must be out on water, wear insect repellant.
Symptoms of Dengue Fever 1 (non-lethal variety)
Incubation Period: 2 1/2 days to 15 days. Transmission: Mosquito to human. No human can infect another human with this virus. Orthodox Treatment: no drug is available to halt this virus.
1. Horrible headache. There is intense pain in the forehead and behind the eyes.
2. Pain in eyes; it hurts to move the eyes, neuralgia type pain.
3. Swelling and achiness in all the joints of the body. Known as "breakbone" fever, this symptom is worse than all your achy flu symptoms put together. It hurts to move. Your bach will ache and there is a chilliness accompanying it.
4. Sudden onset of symptoms in 50% of the cases. A high, stunning abrupt fever, face becomes flushed with severe, attacking back pain (lumbar region) and joint pain.
5. High fever (up to 104 degrees). This fever will be a "saddleback" kind of fever. It will be there for 5-6 days, then abate for 3-4 days, and then come back for 5-6 days. There may be profuse sweating.
6. Muscles will be extremely sore and ache.
7. A red rash (sometimes misdiagnosed as measles) may break out all over 6 to 12 hours before the onset of the fever.
8. Lack of apetite.
9. Pulse may be slower than expected with the high fever.
10. Lymph glands become englarged.
11. Skin: the rash may appear between day 3 and 5, which will appear slightly raised, red patches and if pressured with finger, the redness will disappear. Usually appears on torso first, and then spreads to extremeties and chest. NOTE: DHF1, even without any kind of treatment, the person will recover and death from this variety is very low.
12. Diarrhea.
What To Do
1. CDC advises: "The symptoms of Dengue can be treated with bedrest, fluids, and medication to reduce fever, such as acetaminophen; aspirin hould be avoided."
2. If you think you've got Dengue, get to your doctor right away for diagnosis. Once confirmed, here are several well known Dengue Fever remedies listed below. Match your set of symptoms with there symptoms. Call your local homeopath to prescribe the remedy in the potency they feel is best indicated for your condition. If you don't have a homeopath, call the National Center for Homeopathy, 703-548-7790, and find out. Do NOT prescribe for yourself without a professional homeopath following your case! Carry the following remedies in your epidemic kit: Aconite (for shock), Belladonna (for sudden, high fever).
Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever 2
This lethal form which is carried by the Tiger Mosquitos, Aedes Albopictus. What makes this more compounded is that in the guts of this female mosquito, she carries more than just DHG2. She can harbor a multitude of viruses that are not yet known to humans. Aedes Aegypti carries on DF1. So, if the newspapers or television news start reporting that they've trapped A. Albopictus, we are in for the killer Dengue Fever and every effort to protect yourself should be undertaken immediately.
Orthodox Treatment: no drug is available for this viral infection. Only homeopathic treatement coupled with swiftness to a hospital emergency room can save your life. Call 911 and take the homeopathic remedy that best fits your symtpoms on the way to the hospital. NOTE: If it is a child, it's vital to get them to the hospital just as soon as possible. The mortality rate is high for an infant under one year of age.
Symptoms
1. The intial 3 to 4 days are the same as DF1.
2. After that, there is a sharp, shocking change. Fever skyrockets suddenly, without warning and can reach 107 degrees.
3. There is physical shock and collapse.
4. Hemorrhage under the skin (bruises, bleeding) everywhere. Bleeding from the nose, from the gums, blood in the urine and in the vomit and stools (black and tar-like).
5. The skin is clammy, the extremities, cold. As hemorrhaging begins, the skin has blue and red spots over it known as "petechiae'.
6. The face become a mottled blue color (cyanosis).
7. Blood pressure drops rapidly and may not be detectable.
Mortality: Merck Manual estimates between 6 to 30% die from DHG2.
Worse Case Scenario: CDC says that people who get DF1 are immune only to DF1 for up to two years. Worse, if, even during that time or after that period, you are bitten by a DHF mosquito, then your chances for survival become even less. Having DF1 does NOT protect you from DHF; it only exacerbates the problems and increases the possibility of death.
Homeopathic Remedies for Dengue Fever 1
EUPATORIUM PERFOLATUM will probably be the major remedy of choice. It comes from the herb, Thoroughwort and is known as "Bone-Set." It was used in the 1800 and 1900's by homeopaths when Dengue became epidemic during those time periods.

CHIKUNUNYA & ITS CAUSES
Chikungunya & its causes –
Chikungunya is a contagious, continuous fever which spreads through mosquito bite, especially the Aedes aegypti mosquito. It is a viral disorder caused by alpha virus (also called chik virus). Chikungunya is named after the posture of a person who suffers from this severe type of fever (i.e. doubling up due to severe joint pains - in the local language of Tanzania). Sources say that chikungunya was first identified in Tanzania (1952) and in India by 1963. It had also a violent outbreak in India by 1971.
Aedes-type mosquitoes are smaller than other mosquitoes and they breed only in artificially stagnated fresh water, i.e. water tanks, water stored flower pots, buckets filled with water, etc. Aedes aegypti is the more common type. It is also called Asian tiger mosquito as it has white stripes in its black body and legs. It bites chiefly during the daytime.
Symptoms - Usually symptoms differ from place to place / patient to patient depending upon the age and stamina of the sufferer. The common symptoms are
§ Sudden rise in temperature above 101°F
§ Continuous fever with restlessness
§ Nausea and vomiting
§ Headache and severe body pain
§ Painful joints, especially knee and ankle
§ Swelling in the joints (occasional)
§ Redness and soreness of eyes
§ Glare of vision / sensitivity of eyes on seeing bright objects (occasional)
§ Itching, blotches and burning skin rashes (occasional)
§ Coated tongue with loss of taste
§ Ulcers or blisters in mouth
§ Diarrhoea (occasional)
§ Bleeding internal or external (in skin, brain and kidney) (occasional)
§ Neurological complications due to bleeding in brain (occasional)
Generally fever takes 5-7 days to subside (if properly treated), whereas other symptoms (if developed) take longer to go. For example - joint pains / swelling take at least 10-15 days to subside, sometimes even months.
Homeopathic approach - In Homeopathy, we treat the patients (symptoms of the patients) and not the disease. In Homeopathy, medicines are usually selected with the mode of onset of complaints, characteristic symptoms of the patient with respect to appetite, thirst, sweat, shivering, mental restlessness, sleep, urine, stool habits, and the character of the disease and its exciting cause, etc. A well-selected remedy quickly supports the body mechanism and clears the complaints at the earliest.
In Homeopathy, the medicines are not going to act against the disease or kill the bacteria or virus directly; diagnosis with lab investigations and causative factor (bacteria or virus) are less important. So, a lot of patients being diagnosed (?) as having chikungunya or 'PUO' can also be easily treated by increasing the immune mechanism with Homeopathy medicines. Homeopathic remedies make the patient more comfortable during treatment by supporting the healing process and stimulating the immune response.
Most often, chikungunya sufferers get hospitalised with high temperature, severe body pain, swelling of joints and redness of eyes. Even after treatment, the symptoms will not completely disappear and they will not feel the well-being sensation even after completion of the treatment. This most feared, communicable, tough in treating, chikungunya fever with its symptoms can be treated/controlled well with effective Homeopathy treatment. Homeopathy plays a major role by increasing the resistance power. The resistance is sought to be improved by giving no chance for occurrence or recurrence due to re-infection of the same bacteria or virus. One can feel the well-being sensation while / after being treated with Homeopathic medicines.
For treating chikungunya fever/suffering - Homeopathic medicines commonly used are Aconite, Apis-mel, Ars alb, Baptisia, Belladonna, Bryonia, Eupatorium Perf, Ferrum phos, Gelsemium, Nat mur, Rhus tox, Pulsatilla, Pyrogen, etc. It is better to have these medicines under the advice and diagnosis of a Qualified Homeopath since symptoms presentation of each individual varies and often calls for different type of medicines even for the same chikungunya fever. So, without consulting a doctor, one cannot take the right medicine for any ailment.
For prevention - One can buy the following medicines from Homeopathic pharmacy and take as per instructions for a week:Rhus tox 1M / 4 pills / daily morning and evening &Eupatorium perf 1M / 4 pills / daily afternoon and night
For post-fever effects
§ For joint pains and tiredness -Arnica 1M/ only one dose / 4 pills of 30 size globules - at bed time, followed with Rhus tox 1M / 4 pills / daily morning, afternoon, evening & night for a week
§ For joints swelling and pain-Bryonia 1M / 4 pills / daily morning and evening & Apis 200 / 4 pills / daily afternoon and night for a week
§ For headache -Gelsemium 200 / 4 pills / daily morning, afternoon, evening and night for a week
If any of the complaints happen to persist or seem not to get improved, it is better to consult your health professional immediately.
Chikungunya is a contagious, continuous fever which spreads through mosquito bite, especially the Aedes aegypti mosquito. It is a viral disorder caused by alpha virus (also called chik virus). Chikungunya is named after the posture of a person who suffers from this severe type of fever (i.e. doubling up due to severe joint pains - in the local language of Tanzania). Sources say that chikungunya was first identified in Tanzania (1952) and in India by 1963. It had also a violent outbreak in India by 1971.
Aedes-type mosquitoes are smaller than other mosquitoes and they breed only in artificially stagnated fresh water, i.e. water tanks, water stored flower pots, buckets filled with water, etc. Aedes aegypti is the more common type. It is also called Asian tiger mosquito as it has white stripes in its black body and legs. It bites chiefly during the daytime.
Symptoms - Usually symptoms differ from place to place / patient to patient depending upon the age and stamina of the sufferer. The common symptoms are
§ Sudden rise in temperature above 101°F
§ Continuous fever with restlessness
§ Nausea and vomiting
§ Headache and severe body pain
§ Painful joints, especially knee and ankle
§ Swelling in the joints (occasional)
§ Redness and soreness of eyes
§ Glare of vision / sensitivity of eyes on seeing bright objects (occasional)
§ Itching, blotches and burning skin rashes (occasional)
§ Coated tongue with loss of taste
§ Ulcers or blisters in mouth
§ Diarrhoea (occasional)
§ Bleeding internal or external (in skin, brain and kidney) (occasional)
§ Neurological complications due to bleeding in brain (occasional)
Generally fever takes 5-7 days to subside (if properly treated), whereas other symptoms (if developed) take longer to go. For example - joint pains / swelling take at least 10-15 days to subside, sometimes even months.

Twelve Tissue Salt
The Twelve Tissue Salts
Calc fluor
Calcium fluoride is particularly abundant in the bones and teeth, blood vessel walls, muscles and connective tissue. This tissue salt strengthens weak, brittle bones and poor teeth enamel, and may heal bony outgrowths such as heel spurs. Calc fluor is also widely used to restore tissue elasticity when it is lax or overly stiff. It is recommended for skin cracks and fissures, and when the skin becomes thick and hard. It may help hernia pains and strained or hardened tendons. Calc fluor can help hemorrhoids and varicose veins. Wet weather may make symptoms worse, while warmth and massage can improve symptoms. Calc phos
Calc phos is important for the skeletal system, teeth and connective tissues. As a mineral compound, calcium phosphate constitutes over half of your bone structure. As a tissue salt, it is naturally helpful in healing fractures, for conditions relating to the digestive tract and for coldness and numbness from poor circulation. Calc phos is often beneficial for anemia as well as for poor growth and development in children. It can promote the development of teeth and help with teething problems or decaying teeth. It can also be used to speed recovery when convalescence from illness is delayed. Pains related to Calc phos tend to be worse at night. Calc sulph
Calc sulph is a blood purifier that is often useful with acne, abscesses, ulcers and wounds that have become infected. Calc sulph closes and clears up an infection. This remedy is indicated for infections that are slow to heal, and when the discharges are yellow, thick and possibly bloody. Calc sulph can prevent an oncoming cold or sore throat Ferr phos
Consider this tissue salt in the first stage of any inflammation where the skin or mucous membrane is red, painful and swollen. Ferr phos can relieve fevers, especially where the skin is hot and dry and the cheeks flushed. Typically, there will be thirst. The head may be congested and throbbing. Ferr phos is indicated with painful sore throats, laryngitis, earaches and similar inflammatory conditions in the beginning stages. It is also useful immediately following an injury to help stop the blood flow if there is bleeding, or to reduce swelling, heat, redness and pain. With sprains or strains, the pains are worsened by movement; elevate the limb and apply a cold compress. Ferr phos is an oxygen supplier to the cells, so it is useful for anemic conditions, particularly when they occur as a result of heavy bleeding.
Kali mur
Kali mur should be considered with weak and sluggish conditions. It acts as a blood purifier when infections discharge a thick, white or gray substance. It is useful in skin eruptions and also in infections after the initial inflammatory stage. In injuries where swelling occurs, use Kali mur during the initial swelling phase. Kali mur is useful for infections such as tonsillitis, head colds and earaches when the swelling is marked. With infectious bronchitis, the phlegm is thick and may cause rattling and wheezing. Poor digestion, when it develops after eating rich or fatty foods, also benefits from Kali mur. The tongue is typically coated white and the stools may be lighter in color, indicating sluggishness of the liver Kali phos
This tissue salt is particularly suited to conditions relating to the nerves. It is beneficial for anxiety and nervousness, for irritability from frayed nerves, or for poor memory, typically accompanied by fatigue. Kali phos will relieve insomnia, asthma, headaches and indigestion if they are triggered by a temporary attack of nervous tension. This tissue salt is also useful for treating physical conditions relating to the nerves, including shingles and skin conditions where there is itching and a crawling feeling. Nerve pains or spasms, and cramps not relieved by Mag phos, are often helped by Kali phos. Kali sulph
Kali sulph helps with conditions of the skin and mucous membranes. These skin conditions typically develop a discharge which is yellow and sticky or watery, common in the later stages of an infection. The tongue may be covered with a slimy, yellow coating. Crusty or scaling skin problems also benefit from this remedy. Diarrhea and sinus infections past the initial stages with a slimy, yellow quality are typical uses for Kali sulph. Digestive complaints and colic with gas or shifting pains may be helped by this tissue salt. Typically, the conditions are better in cool, open air, and worse in warm, stuffy rooms. Kali sulph is a remedy for cramps not relieved by Mag phos, especially when some of the above symptoms are also present Mag phos
Mag phos is the chief tissue salt to consider for cramps and spasms in the muscles or nerves. Nerve pains are typically sharp and may shoot along the nerve. This tissue salt quickly relieves cramping pains and colic that are improved by warmth, pressure and doubling over. Cold drafts and cold water tend to worsen the condition. Tension headaches and fitful, spasmodic coughs often benefit from Mag phos. In the acute stages, this tissue salt acts more quickly when taken dissolved in some hot water Nat mur
This tissue salt’s main function is to properly distribute body fluids. If excess dryness or water retention occurs, this indicates a need for Nat mur. Water-filled blisters, insect bites, hives that itch, and dry eczema are skin conditions this tissue salt often heals. Colds and hay fevers with watery mucus and sneezing, usually accompanied by a loss of smell and taste, also indicate Nat mur. Other problems helped by this tissue salt are constipation, digestive complaints, and headaches that are worse in the morning and from the sun. Often a craving for salt develops, and the spirits tend to be low. Sometimes, there is an associated feeling of hopelessness Nat phos
Nat phos is an acid-neutralizing tissue salt. It is useful for an acidic stomach which causes nausea, gas, sour belching or a thick, white coating on the tongue. Nat phos is a useful remedy for morning sickness or motion sickness, when the vomiting is sour. Since overacidity is also the source of many arthritic complaints (including gout), Nat phos is often helpful. This tissue salt also regulates bile production, and can be used for jaundice, gall-bladder colic and indigestion from rich or fatty foods Nat sulph
Nat sulph regulates the distribution of water and the flow of bile. This tissue salt is beneficial for the liver, pancreas, intestines and kidneys. Jaundice, bitter belching and dark-colored, greenish stools and diarrhea all suggest a need for this tissue salt. The coating on the tongue is typically greenish brown. Nat sulph is often beneficial for flus and colds and is another remedy for morning sickness, when there is a bitter taste in the mouth. In the respiratory system, this tissue salt should be considered for asthma brought on by humidity. The effects of head injuries may be remedied by Nat sulph.Silicea
Silicea is well known as a tissue salt to ripen infections and eliminate them through the surface. It acts as a blood cleanser and is useful in abscesses, tonsillitis, sties and other infections to promote the formation of pus when an outlet is available. The tissue salt Silicea supports the bone structure and connective tissues. When it is lacking, the nails, hair and bones may become weak. Weakness and poor stamina may be evident in other parts of the body, so this tissue salt should be considered if these problems fail to resolve and if injuries heal poorly. It can also be used for absent-mindedness and weak memory. Consider Silicea for neuralgia when Mag phos fails. Excessive or suppressed perspiration can also be restored to normal with this tissue salt.
Calc fluor
Calcium fluoride is particularly abundant in the bones and teeth, blood vessel walls, muscles and connective tissue. This tissue salt strengthens weak, brittle bones and poor teeth enamel, and may heal bony outgrowths such as heel spurs. Calc fluor is also widely used to restore tissue elasticity when it is lax or overly stiff. It is recommended for skin cracks and fissures, and when the skin becomes thick and hard.

Calc phos is often beneficial for anemia as well as for poor growth and development in children. It can promote the development of teeth and help with teething problems or decaying teeth. It can also be used to speed recovery when convalescence from illness is delayed. Pains related to Calc phos tend to be worse at night. Calc sulph

This remedy is indicated for infections that are slow to heal, and when the discharges are yellow, thick and possibly bloody. Calc sulph can prevent an oncoming cold or sore throat Ferr phos

This tissue salt is particularly suited to conditions relating to the nerves. It is beneficial for anxiety and nervousness, for irritability from frayed nerves, or for poor memory, typically accompanied by fatigue. Kali phos will relieve insomnia, asthma, headaches and indigestion if they are triggered by a temporary attack of nervous tension. This tissue salt is also useful for treating physical conditions relating to the nerves, including shingles and skin conditions where there is itching and a crawling feeling. Nerve pains or spasms, and cramps not relieved by Mag phos, are often helped by Kali phos. Kali sulph
Kali sulph helps with conditions of the skin and mucous membranes. These skin conditions typically develop a discharge which is yellow and sticky or watery, common in the later stages of an infection. The tongue may be covered with a slimy, yellow coating. Crusty or scaling skin problems also benefit from this remedy. Diarrhea and sinus infections past the initial stages with a slimy, yellow quality are typical uses for Kali sulph. Digestive complaints and colic with gas or shifting pains may be helped by this tissue salt. Typically, the conditions are better in cool, open air, and worse in warm, stuffy rooms. Kali sulph is a remedy for cramps not relieved by Mag phos, especially when some of the above symptoms are also present Mag phos
Mag phos is the chief tissue salt to consider for cramps and spasms in the muscles or nerves. Nerve pains are typically sharp and may shoot along the nerve. This tissue salt quickly relieves cramping pains and colic that are improved by warmth, pressure and doubling over. Cold drafts and cold water tend to worsen the condition. Tension headaches and fitful, spasmodic coughs often benefit from Mag phos. In the acute stages, this tissue salt acts more quickly when taken dissolved in some hot water Nat mur
This tissue salt’s main function is to properly distribute body fluids. If excess dryness or water retention occurs, this indicates a need for Nat mur. Water-filled blisters, insect bites, hives that itch, and dry eczema are skin conditions this tissue salt often heals. Colds and hay fevers with watery mucus and sneezing, usually accompanied by a loss of smell and taste, also indicate Nat mur. Other problems helped by this tissue salt are constipation, digestive complaints, and headaches that are worse in the morning and from the sun. Often a craving for salt develops, and the spirits tend to be low. Sometimes, there is an associated feeling of hopelessness Nat phos
Nat phos is an acid-neutralizing tissue salt. It is useful for an acidic stomach which causes nausea, gas, sour belching or a thick, white coating on the tongue. Nat phos is a useful remedy for morning sickness or motion sickness, when the vomiting is sour. Since overacidity is also the source of many arthritic complaints (including gout), Nat phos is often helpful. This tissue salt also regulates bile production, and can be used for jaundice, gall-bladder colic and indigestion from rich or fatty foods Nat sulph
Nat sulph regulates the distribution of water and the flow of bile. This tissue salt is beneficial for the liver, pancreas, intestines and kidneys. Jaundice, bitter belching and dark-colored, greenish stools and diarrhea all suggest a need for this tissue salt. The coating on the tongue is typically greenish brown. Nat sulph is often beneficial for flus and colds and is another remedy for morning sickness, when there is a bitter taste in the mouth. In the respiratory system, this tissue salt should be considered for asthma brought on by humidity. The effects of head injuries may be remedied by Nat sulph.Silicea
Silicea is well known as a tissue salt to ripen infections and eliminate them through the surface. It acts as a blood cleanser and is useful in abscesses, tonsillitis, sties and other infections to promote the formation of pus when an outlet is available. The tissue salt Silicea supports the bone structure and connective tissues. When it is lacking, the nails, hair and bones may become weak. Weakness and poor stamina may be evident in other parts of the body, so this tissue salt should be considered if these problems fail to resolve and if injuries heal poorly. It can also be used for absent-mindedness and weak memory. Consider Silicea for neuralgia when Mag phos fails. Excessive or suppressed perspiration can also be restored to normal with this tissue salt.

ALOE VERA
The use of herbs to treat human ailments has been in practice since eternity. Even the modern pharmaceutical industry, with its unprecedented capabilities, can’t do without herbs. If one takes a walk through the success trail of the ‘pharma’ industry, it will end at one or other herb. Herbs are an essential part of our ecological system and add beauty to ‘Planet Earth.’ Herbs makes man’s existence smooth, more rewarding, and devoid of infirmity. Slow and steady wins the race’ — this holds true in the case of herbal medicines, as they take time to give results. One of the best herbal products available is ‘Aloe Vera’ —The gel is tasteless,colourless and odourless. The dried Aloe juice is chocolate brown in colour, opaque and bitter in taste. Ayurveda calls it Ghrit Kumari.
Aloe VeraFamily-Name-LILIACEAEBotanical Name : ALOE VERA, ALOE BARBADENSIS, ,ALOE INDICA,ALOE BARBADOS .Common Name : ALOE, BARBADOS ALOE, CURACAO ALOE, INDIAN ALOE, GHI KUNVAR, GHIRITA,GAWARPALTRA,BARBADOS ALOE,LU HUI .
Parts Used : FLOWERS, ROOTSHabitat : South and South Western India.,America,Africa.
Dose: For internal use of aloe gel, two tablespoons (about 30 ml) three times per day is used by some people for inflammatory bowel conditions, including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. For constipation, dose of 40 to 170 milligrams of aloe latex per day, for no longer than seven days, has been taken by mouth. The use of oral aloe latex is not currently recommended for children. Aloe Vera’s ability to detoxify is sufficient to gently and gradually break down, loosen and assist in the natural dispersal of these residues filled with toxins from intestine.
The Greeks scientists, 2000 years ago regarded Aloe Vera as the universal
panacea.
The Egyptians called the Aloe "The PLANT of IMMORTALITY"
The American Indians called Aloe " The WAND of HEAVEN"
Aloe, native to Africa, is also known as "lily of the desert", the "plant of immortality". The name was derived from the Arabic alloeh meaning "bitter" because of the bitter liquid found in the leaves.There are around 300 species of Aloe Vera out of which 11 are poisonous and only 4 are of medicinal value .Most potent is Barbadensis Miller. Full potency is achieved at the age of around 3 years. Aloe Vera contains over 200 nutritional substances, which makes it the most nutritional plant on the earth.
The Constituents :
The various constituent elements found in Aloe Vera include :Vitamins : Beta-carotene, Vitamin B1, Vitamin B2, Folic acid, Vitamin C, Vitamin B3, Vitamin B6,Vitamin E, Choline.Minerals : Calcium, Magnesium, Sodium, Copper, Iron, Manganese, Potassium, Zinc, Chromium, Chlorine.Amino Acids : Lysine, Threonine, Valine, Methionine, Leucine, Isoleucine, Phenylaianine, Tryptophane, Histidine, Arginine, Hydroxy Proline, Aspartic acid, Serine, Glutamic acid, Proline, Glycerine, Alanine, Cystine and Tyrosine.Anthraquinones : Aloin, Isobarbaloin, Barbaloin, Cinnamic acid,Emodin, Aloe Emodin, Ester of Cinnamic acid, Anthracene, Antranol, Aloetic acid, Ethereal oils, Resistannols and Crysophanic acid.Mono and polysaccharides : Cellulose, Glucose, Mannose, Galactose, Aldonentose, L-rhamnose, Uronic acid, Xylose, Glucuronic acid and Arabinose.Enzymes : Oxidase, Amylase, Catalase, Lipase and Alinase.
The human body requires 22 amino acids for good health -- eight of which are called "essential" because the body cannot fabricate them. Aloe Vera contains all of these eight essential amino acids, and 11 of the 14 " within the body, and some cannot be stored by the body, so it is necessary for the diet secondary" amino acids. . It contains a newly discovered compound in aloe, Acemannan, which is currently being studied for its ability to strengthen the bodies natural resistance. Studies have shown Acemannan to boost T-lymphocyte cells that aid the immune system.
Aloe can aid in keeping the skin supple, and has been used in the control of acne and eczema. It can relieve itching due to insect bites and allergies. Aloe's healing power come from increasing the availability of oxygen to the skin, and by increasing the synthesis and strength of tissue. The gel of the Aloe plant, when exposed to oxygen for a prolonged time (about four hours) oxidizes - rendering it worthless. (This is the same reaction to air as an apple undergoes when the "insides" are exposed to air - it quickly browns due to oxidation.
