I have been using homeopathy for 50 years. It helped me get away from drugs used for air sickness. I only use homeopathy for that issue in my life. I also use it for common complaints, headaches, sinus issues, fevers, coughs...and I have many books that I have used to learn the techniques of using homeopathy.

What we call a "health care system" is nothing of the sort. Rather, it is a "sick care system." Our medical professionals are trained not to cure illnesses and conditions, rather, they are trained to treat symptoms, leading to not only perpetually sick people, but an endless stream of revenue for Big Pharma. We can thank Old Man Rockefeller for this because it is he who was behind this. Early in the 20th Century, our health care system was 100% homeopathic, with patients being treated in an effort to cure their problems. But then Old Man Rockefeller came along and basically took control of our entire medical system, altering the curriculum and training in our medical schools in order to push petroleum-derived drugs onto everyone with a medical issue. So no longer was an effort made to determine the root cause of a medical issue and cure it; now the goal was to "treat" medical issues with petroleum-derived drugs and create a lifelong customer for Big Pharma. If we are to save ourselves from this "sick care system," we must break the hold of Big Pharma on our medical profession.

Wonderful! I’ve been using homeopathy for years for us and our animals. When I saw actual effects in pets is when I realized it works. It’s not like hitting with a hammer like allopathic medicine , it’s gentler. Homeopath Joette Calabrese is my favorite and has much info on her website.

Using homeopathy as a dairy herdsman inspired me to become a veterinarian. I've been using it with other integrative techniques since 1988. Figuring out the right remedy is the key and if you can find 3-4 symptoms, you can usually "diagnose" (select) the right remedy. Potency of the remedy is fascinating and simultaneously vexing. I've concluded that many physical symptoms (that are easily detectable in dairy cows) are best addressed by low potency (e.g., 6C, 3X, etc) and more unique peculiar symptoms with high potency (e.g., 200C, etc). Reproductive issues such as cystic follicles are well-addressed by homeopathy. Homeopathy as used in France and India often uses low potency whereas in Germany and the US it is generally high potency (30C or higher). I came upon the Eclectics (physicians in the 1850's to 1950's) and saw the treatments they based on American Indian herbal use were often the same as the remedies used by homeopaths but in crude form and not potentized form like the homeopaths. This was initially very confusing to me since I'd learned homeopathy using 30C and 200C potencies - essentially the essence of the crude drug. I also read that homeopaths around 1900 were using more and more low potency homeopathy. I eventually landed on the concept of using the correctly selected remedy but use it multi-potency homeochords e.g., 2X, 4X, 12X, 30C, 200C to get *both* a touch of the botanical aspect as well as the homeopathic essence of the crude remedy to cover all bases. It's certainly not classical homeopathy. But in the trenches, I need an approach which is makes sense and has some rationale for each case that presents.

Great until another pharma-purchased president gets elected.
