Individualized Holistic Health Care

Hey, This medicine helped me with a similar condition why don't you try it out too! We have all faced this. There are times when we are tempted to recommend a medicine that had helped us to another person. While this is a dangerous practice, it is fairly common practice in India and   other developing and third world countries and needs to be discouraged by all means. But then we have what is called OTC (Over The Counter) drugs that don't need a prescription can be easily purchased from a medical drug store. First, let us take the case of Urinary Tract Infection or UTI as it is commonly referred to.  A Google search will throw up commonly prescribe antibiotics and other drugs used to treat this condition. Your friendly neighbourhood chemist will quickly present your with few options when asked. So, why does a homeopath ask so many questions? To understand this we first got to understand  How does a Homeopath prescribe?  Let...

(This is a reproduction of my article published in print media during the Lancet onslaught a few years back. Still relevant because -Absence of evidence is not Evidence of absence) The renewed and more vigorous attack on the efficacy of homeopathy as a curative therapy picked up by the media is nothing but a sinister pogrom by the powerful pharmaceutical corporations the world over. If one reads between the lines of events leading to this tirade you will find the genesis in a report (reported in the Guardian online) where The Prince of Wales has ordered a leading independent economist to examine whether the use of complementary therapies could save the NHS money.

The report also claims up to £480m could be cut from the prescr...

‘Dying To Be Me’ by Anita Moorjani is a fascinating book that describes her recovery from terminal stage lymphoma cancer (she was brought into the hospital comatose with multiple organ failures) after she experienced what she terms a ‘Near Death Experience (NDE)’. In the state of NDE, she discovers the ‘real’ cause of her cancer. This realisation and surrender (letting go!) leads to the realization of her intrinsic worth, and sets off a chain of metabolic reset of her system. As a result she recovers within weeks without a trace of cancer in her body, a miracle in medical terms. The concept of NDE although fascinating is open to debate as the whole explanation given by those who experience it varies and is often saturated with the belief system one is brought up with. Yet, the fact is, that this lady who was reduced to skin and bones recovered within 3-4 weeks, and was declared cancer free. In her state of NDE, Anita becomes aware of what caused her cancer and in this Aha! moment sh...
