Dementia and Homeopathy

Dementia is a physical illness of the brain, usually after 60 years of age. It is a decline in brain functions  which include memory, language, learning, comprehension, judgement, movement etc. Finally, it impairs one's ability to function normally in life. It puts a huge burden on health care delivery systems.  Millions of people get affected from this illness every year throughout the world. It has got great social and economic implications. There are several risk factors for dementia. Prominent among these include advanced age, family history, smoking, alcohol abuse, stroke, cholesterol, atherosclerosis, traumatic  brain injury, diabetes, Alzheimer's, Down syndrome etc. Homeopathy medicines, particularly the causative, symptomatic, immunity-enhancing, constitutional and miasmatic medicines  halt  deterioration, improve brain functions and also reverse the process in many dementia cases. In general, Kali phos is one one of the effective remedies based on symptoms.

Reversing carcinogenesis and Homeopathy

Mankind is fighting cancer for thousands of years. Cancer formation or carcinogenesis still haunt  the mental faculties of bright researchers throughout the world. Big query of the quest is whether cancer shall be curable or not? Varieties of cancer are many and their behaviours are unpredictable, erratic, deceptive, aggressive and autonomous so that no single pattern is recognizable for the genesis of all cancers. Many cancer causing substances or carcinogens are known. Carcinogens have capacity to cause gene mutation and lead to cancer formation. Now, the question arises that when a particle of carcinogen can cause gene mutation why not an anti-carcinogenic substance can cause reversal of gene mutation? Like carcinogens, anti-carcinogenic substances need to be more and more recognized. Homeopathy medicines work like  anti-carcinogenic substances helping in holistic ways to stop, contain or reverse  gene mutation and carcinogenesis as evidenced  from many functionally or radically cured cases of cancer.

Kidney failure responds well to homeopathy medicines

A 70+ years old man was suffering from chronic renal failure. He was a patient of chronic hypertension, Type-2 diabetes and ischemic heart disease. His body was completely swollen, serum creatinine and urea levels were high and urine output was 200 to 300 ml in 24 hours when he was presented for homeopathy medication. His kidney function improved, creatinine and urea levels came down and urine output was 1000 ml in 24 hours after two months of homeopathy medication and the impending dialysis was avoided. Follow-ups continued.

Homeopathy, Cardiovascular diseases and Women

                             
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are one of the main lifestyle diseases. It kills about 8.6 million women globally every year.The risk factors for CVDs are lack of exercise, smoking, unhealthy diet ,alcohol, high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol.The arteries get clogged with bad cholesterol, plaque, calcium and scar tissue. Even children develop susceptibility to CVDs during foetal development, due to mother`s unhealthy lifestyle. 1 in 3 female deaths are due to CVDs. However, the women`s risk is grossly underestimated. Homeopathic medicines are pre-emptive, preventive and curative for CVDs. They reduce  bad cholesterols, plaques, calcium deposits and scar tissues and prevent degeneration and narrowing of arteries. Homeopathy  medicines even reduce very high Triglycerides level and bring it to normalcy within a period of 3 to 6 months. Type-2 diabetes and hypertension are also easily controllable with homeopathy medicines. Independent homeopathy medication or supportive programme with conventional medicine are both effective for treating CVDs.

Lung cancer susceptibility and Homeopathy

Lung cancer is a deadly form of cancer. It usually affects the people after 45 years of age. There are two main types of lung cancer. Most common type is known as non-small cell lung cancer. It occurs in 85% to 90% of the cases and is usually less aggressive and slow-spreading. Less common type is known as small-cell lung cancer. It occurs in 10% to 15% of the cases but is highly aggressive and fast-spreading. Smoking is the main cause of lung cancer. The disease spreads from the affected lung to liver, bone, brain and the other lung through metastasis. Prognosis depends on the stage of the disease, therapies taken and vitality of the patient. Homeopathy medicines treat and manage lung cancer cases whether small cell or non-small cell type. Homeopathic constitutions which are susceptible to develop lung cancer include Nux vomica, Sulphur and Arsenicum album.

Lung cancer risk from one's work environment

Lung cancer risk increases from one's work environment containing carcinogenic smoke, dust or chemicals. For example, two elderly persons who were treated for lung cancer worked in coal mine areas and one in chromium and nickel mine areas.

Role of Homeopathy medicines in advanced cancer

In most cases of Stage-3 and Stage-4 cancers, conventional therapies like radiotherapy/chemotherapy are not able to totally eliminate the presence of malignant tumours. Even after these intensive  therapies, aggressive tumours regress by about 30 to 40% on the lower side or about 80 to 90% on the higher side. After a period of remission which may vary from some months to a few years, residual malignant cells start regrowth. Objective of homeopathic medication after  intensive therapies is to gradually diminish and eliminate the residual tumours. This is done in a holistic way. Homeopathy medicines bring  therapeutic actions by  increasing the body's immunity, reducing blood flow and energy supply to  the residual tumour, softening the tissue growth and eventually  eradicating the malignancy which had been observed even in Stage-3 cancer.
