Homeopathy is a system of alternative
medicine that was developed in the 1800's by the German
doctor Samuel Hahnemann. This system of medicine is
based on an ancient principle called the Law of Similars.
The essence of this "law" is that any substance that can
produce symptoms of disease in a healthy person can help
someone who is ill and has the same symptoms.
Homeopathic medicines or remedies are FDA approved and
are derived from many natural sources, including plants,
metals, and minerals. These substances are used in
diluted forms - so diluted, in fact that in some cases,
there is not a single molecule of the original substance
remaining. The strength of the medicine depends on the
dilution. The more dilute the remedy, the more powerful
it is.
Homeopathic medicines can be used for virtually any
condition, colds, digestive disorders, depression,
allergies, insect bites, arthritis, mild burns and for
many other conditions. Homeopathic medicines are
completely nontoxic. They can be safely given to
children and the elderly.
