Nutritional Supplements

In general less is more when in comes to supplements. We'll only recommend them when there's a clear reason for it. Sometimes the nutritional deficiencies we see in patients can be corrected by a proper diet and the right homeopathic remedy. Over time, things will start to balance out. 😌 In fact, too much vitamins and minerals are a common "side-effects" of the use of supplements. And as we know, too much of something is just as bad as too little . For instance, too much B6 in the blood can mean neuropathy and tremors. B12 injections can cause an accumulation of cobalt. Then again, a detox-course can help rebalance the system.  Some Useful Supplements to Consider: Vitamin C As part of the detox program, Vitamin C can play a vital role because it's such a powerful antioxidant. Let's try to find it in our food: - sauerkraut; - kiwi fruit; - bell peppers; - cranberries; - pomegranate; - broccoli. Broccoli is really the best vegetable out there because it's ...

Melatonin

 Melatonin can be given temporarily as a supplement to improve sleep along with a course of homeopathic melatonin (see below). It should never be used long-term however; it is a hormone and can have a disruptive effect in the wider endocrine system.  A better solution to sleep issues is to improve the melatonin metabolism by moderating the use of sugar/carbohydrates, sleeping in a dark room and by improving the day-night rhythm. Those who work night shifts should sleep in a very darkened room and use earplugs.  About Melatonin Melatonin is a hormone made by the pineal gland. Melatonin has been used as a treatment for a number of conditions, including jet-lag, seasonal affective disorder (SAD), depression and cancer.  When side-effects from melatonin do occur (which is common, even at doses that are significantly less than the recommended amount), they may include: - increase in blood pressure; - fatigue; - depression; - problems with fertility.  About Homeopathi...

Think Twice About Taking the Pill

Why women go on the pill One of the reasons women initially are put on the pill is to “regulate” periods, whether they be irregular, heavy or painful. Others have been prescribed the pill to treat symptoms of PMS, acne, headaches, mood swings or other hormonal issues.  The pill has become a catch-all solution for all things hormonal. On the surface, the pill seems to “help” these symptoms as the problems are now “managed”. But it does not get to the root of the imbalance or offer a true resolution. It’s like a band-aid effect. What happens for many women when they stop taking the pill, is that the symptoms they experienced prior to going on it, now return, and sometimes worse than before. Problems that arise with the pill include: These types of health issues can develop after birth control use and can be corrected with a homeopathic rebalancing program for birth control: Yael Meir Homeopathy Has a Detox Program which addresses all these issues caused by any Birth Control meds....

Remedy Picture for Mothers: SEPIA

 Sepia has been called the Washerwoman's Remedy, and not without cause. Let's reproduce here the description of this wife/mother with whom we can all feel a connection, as mothers of many children: (Source: British Homeopathic Society) Picture her - the sallow, tired mother of a big family, on "washing day".  She is perspiring profusely: pouring under the arms. She cannot be shut in because of the heat and the stuffness which make her feel faint - yet the cold wind that rushes in at the open door is almost unbearable.  Her back aches fearfully. She wants to press it - to support it. She feels she MUST sit down, or cross her leg, as her whole inside seems to be dragging down, and coming out of her. She simply must sit down to keep it in.  The worry of the children is more than she can bear. Her Chamomilla  baby wants to be picked up and carried, and wails and screams. The quarrels of the penultimate babies engaged in scratching out each other's eyes, are more tha...

Vaccines and Homeopathy

Today, almost no one knows how it is to feel healthy... After the first vaccination... the immune system is already burdened with blueprints of disease and the chemical ingredients in the vaccine...  (other common chemicals such as dental amalgams, plastics, antibiotics, synthetic hormones in food, birth control pills, fluorinated products, additives in food and polluted drinking water all serve to undermine health and eventually lead to chronic diseases.)  Vaccination At a very early age, vaccination gives the child the message "You're not capable of defending yourself  (successfully)" "you need an outer force to be able to resist attacks."  Really? This wonderful machine we call the human body cannot cope on its own? Ever? The whole conventional system of medicine is based on this idea that our energy, our immune system, is too weak to resolve our problems.  (An external force has to take over what our own vital force/immune system should have done.) So we giv...

True Stories: How Homeopathy Helps

Miracles are almost common in homeopathy practice (I've seen a few of my own, mentioned in part in my Testimonials page ) but it never hurts to hear beautiful stories again and again. Here are some taken from the book Impossible Cure from Amy Lansky M.D. She herself saw a miracle with homeopathy on her autistic son and became a homeopath. But that's another story in and of itself. 1) Sweating Arsenic   In 1932, it was my privilege to study under Sir John Weir of London, England... the Royal Physician and one of the leading homeopaths of that time. During one of his lectures, he told us that a single dose of 1M to 10M of the specific substance that was causing the symptoms would allow the body to expel the offending material quickly and easily.  My first experience with this principle was in 1936, when an orchardist staggered into my office and collapsed on the couch in the waiting room. He was cyanotic; he was perspiring profusely; and his pulse was too rapid to count. "...

How fast is Homeopathy?

The rapidity of the effect of homeopathy is obvious to all who practice it; those who only talk about it call it “slow medicine”, which makes most of our patients laugh. From an old homeopath doctor: If we take the example of an incoagulable epistaxis as it happens 2 or 3 per week in the emergency room, we will see the blood turn dark as soon as the Phosphorus globule is placed on the tongue and the hemorrhage stops in minutes. Similarly, in chronic diseases, the effects of taking are often seen within hours, at most within a week. In the cases where the matching remedy has been found, the cure is usually so natural and graceful that it seems that the patient is just getting better by himself. Which is in fact what happened.  So really we should be expecting results within a few weeks MAX and in acute cases (recent) then no more than a few days are necessary to get results with the right remedy.  --- From Yael Meir Homeopathy... I've had results of a years-old depression which...
