Lets remember pharmaceuticals imitate these natural ingredients. No side effects. Feel Better everyone♥️🌹♥️

Does a homeopathic/naturopathic doctor have qualifications and be registered with a medical board that they can literally call themselves a doctor ? Or do they have a PhD ? Or neither?

They also have a medical degree and are Drs.🙂

Dear autumnrose

As much as I admire many alternative practices, we must point out that it's extremely important that before taking any "natural " cures that we run it past our Drs/health team first.

We must never replace tried and tested medication with anything without consulting the medical profession, who in my case has spent a fortune getting me to this stage of being able to answer you.

I believe that many " natural " things can work hand in hand with conventional medication, but it can be a nightmare balancing act that if your not careful can easily have a detrimental effect as well as a positive one.

Say well

I am glad you also see the benefits of natural medicine . Good Health to you💕 Hawthorne berry is also excellent for the heart. My cardiologist agrees it is beneficial, it just takes more time and consistency. People like Pharmaceuticals because they believe they are a quick fix. This is needed at times I have also benefited short term on heart medicine. 4 years ago I was told I had about 3 years to live . I am not against all Pharmaceutical drugs but they are not for long term use. Even the pamphlet they enclose say that. It has taken me almost 3 years of healthy living and alternative to get better. I feel much better but am always mindful what I put into my body now. Balance is the key. 🙂Of course we must be careful what we mix natural herbs /pharmaceuticals and consult a qualified Dr that looks at both sides. We must also be careful of what Pharmaceutical drugs we mix they can also have very bad/devastating side effects if mixed. Stay well also♥️

While I'm glad you have experienced an improvement in you HR issues it needs to be stressed that this was not, and cannot, be due to a homeopathic remedy. At least not beyond that of any placebo.

The way homeopathic medicines are made up means they contain literally no active ingredient (well, by pure chance there might be one or two molecules). Aside from as a placebo there is no possibile mechanism by which they can help.

I think you need to do more research before you discourage others. My husband worked for major Pharmaceuticals in the research Dept. for almost 40 years. We know what we are talking about.

Apologies if this seems blunt, but you clearly don't know what you are talking about. Homeopathy has been definitively debunked. Its own tenets guarantee that it can never be more than a placebo. There is no mechanism through which it can work.

Who debunked it ? You may want to research that more. Good Health to you💕

Basic, fundamental science has debunked it. There is no way it can work.

However if you want more 'medical' debunking a quick trip to The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, effectively the gold standard in medical meta-analysis, provides plenty.

Homeopathic "remedies" have no side-effects because they have no active ingredients. Herbal supplements do have active items, but they may react with other medication, and are not subject to the same quality controls.

Yes there are active ingredients you need to do more research. My husband worked in the Pharma research for 40 years and these homeopathic remedies work better. You must get from a naturopathic Dr. Pharmaceuticals have demonized these remedies because???

I would like to add these homeopathic remedies worked better for my husband and me along with Herbal remedies particularly Hawthorne berry. Everyone needs to do their own research and speak with a Trusted Dr. We are all individuals and what works for one may not for another. As I said in another comment. I am not against all Pharmaceutical drugs, just that they must also be monitored closely. 💕Good Health to you♥️

I rely on the work of a colleague that believed in homeopathic remedies, but did double blind trials, and found they were totally ineffective.

autumnrose in reply toRufusScamp

Have you ever seen the way Pharma does their research? There are many medicines that can not be mixed. That is why it is important to consult a good Dr that explores both sides.🙂

It is important not to take supplements without checking. Many drugs are plant-based, and will react with others. St John's wort is a prime example.

Hi autumnrose , we would always ask that members of the community avoid giving advice on medication or other lifestyle changes, for more detail on this please take a look at the BHF’s community guidelines:
