homeopathy

Homeopathy is a safe, effective system of medicine that uses very diluted natural ingredients to help the body to heal itself and to build up its resistance to illness. It's been used successfully, worldwide, for about two hundred years. The idea of homeopathy is to trigger the body's natural defense system, so that it overcomes an illness by itself. For example, cutting a strong onion can produce stinging, runny eyes, a sore throat and an acrid, runny nose. A homeopath would prescribe the homeopathic remedy made from onion (Allium cepa) for a patient who had a cold with these particular symptoms.
