Hello!
Welcome to the first homeopath-online newsletter. An important part of my approach to health is education. I like my patients to have an understanding of first aid remedies so that they feel prepared and confident prescribing for acute situations.
These newsletters will be sent on a monthly basis and the topics will usually cover health issues pertinent to the time of year, unless something exciting happens in the news that ought to be discussed.
Please forward the newsletter to friends and family who are interested in learning more about complementary medicine. I welcome all comments and suggestions for future issues. Thank you and enjoy the newsletter.
colds and 'flu
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you tend to catch colds or 'flu easily, start a prevention plan now and keep yourself strong for the winter months ahead. Take a multi vitamin daily and add an extra 1000mg of Vitamin C on a regular basis. Make sure to have plenty of fruit and veggies, especially the ones in season such as apples and root vegetables. Do not underestimate the power of sleep. If you feel run down, have a warm bath and go to bed early. Much of your body's healing is done at night while you rest.
At first sign of illness, use either the remedy Anas barb 200C, Ferrum Phos 200C or Aconite 200C. Take one pill three times a day until you feel better. Anas barb is for the initial feeling that you are getting sick. You may feel a bit achy, slightly feverish and worn out. Ferrum Phos also has the feeling of 'coming down with something' and you can alternate the Anas-barb and Ferrum Phos. Aconite is used when illness or fever comes on very suddenly, especially after exposure to a cold, dry wind. Aconite is better to use when there is a feeling of urgency, as though there will be a rapid decline into sickness unless something is done quickly.
Nelsons Homeopathic Pharmacy makes an excellent cold and 'flu prevention remedy (called ICC prevention), well worth buying to boost your immunity to viruses. Start taking it now for best results. Nelsons will post you the remedy with full directions for use.
If you do get sick, please contact me for deeper acting remedies. The sooner the better too as there are different stages to illness, and treating it quickly means less aggravation for you.

stinky soup
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you feel under the weather, make this whiffy yet miraculous soup. The combination of garlic and cayenne pepper does wonders for your immunity.
Using a base of vegetable or chicken broth, add an entire head of chopped garlic, that's right, the whole thing. Add whatever veggies you like- carrots, onions, celery etc. Put in as much cayenne pepper as you can handle- start with half a teaspoon and keep adding to tolerance. The point is to heat up your body and sweat out the baddies. Chop a huge bunch of parsley and add to help counteract the smell of garlic the next day. Simmer gently until the garlic is tender. It will still be quite pungent but that means it's full of allicin, the antibacterial agent in garlic. Have as much soup as you like, wrap up warmly and go to bed early. In the event you sweat a lot, be prepared with an extra t-shirt to change into if you do wake up in the night.
online consultations
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I provide online consultations for first aid conditions such as fevers, coughs, and general acute complaints. There is a nominal charge for this. If you are one of my regular patients, the fee does not apply as acute prescribing is part of your treatment. Just call or email if you need help.
A special thanks to Eric Francis for mentioning me on Jonathan Cainer's website. He refers to homeopathy's success with stopping smoking, as it addresses the emotional component missing in nicotine replacement therapy.
