Vitality School

By Homeopathy

What if the tenets of homeopathic thinking were instilled in our children early on? What if instead of learning about germ theory, our children learned about building a strong terrain, the intelligence of life, the importance of expression (vs. suppression), how to be good observers, and that like cures like?

The Real Vitality Team has answered this call—we’ve created a virtual program for kids called Vitality School. Vitality School consists of 6 virtual classe. They have been designed by a certified teacher and homeschool parent.  The recommended age range is 10-15, but these lessons can be adapted to younger students easily and often include coloring pages so younger students can participate in the lessons. 

Many parents have reached out regarding the onslaught of germ theory propaganda that their children are being inundated with. Our new education series for kids, Vitality Classes, seeks to introduce and instill the vitality concepts introduced in the Real Immunity film series. 

Download a free lesson plan outline to get a better idea of what the classes in our program offer. (There are 6 in our program, and you will be sent one class outline.)

Vitality School seeks to build a solid foundation around terrain theory concepts, homeopathy and natural health. Each lesson will contain an instructional video on the topic, lesson plan, multidisciplinary assignments, and supplemental resources for expanding upon concepts learned. 

Here are answers to common questions asked about our Vitality Classes:

Can adults take Vitality Classes?
Absolutely! Adults new to terrain theory and homeopathy can absolutely benefit form these classes.

I have multi-aged students in my household, ages 8-16. Will they all be able to participate in this program.
Yes. We have diversified our activities so that there are options for expanding the lessons to challenge older students, and so that there is less challenging material for younger students. 

Our homeschool co-op would like to participate in these lessons. Do we pay per student?
To make this program more reasonable for coops and families, we charge per family rather than per individual. We trust that this understanding will be respected so that we won’t have to raise our prices. Much time and resources have been committed to the development of this project, and our prices are configured to make the costs for families more than reasonable. You can send each family to this link to purchase. 

Can students complete these classes on their own, or will parents need to assist?
Children under 12 may need some assistance in navigating and printing the materials. If you review and print the assignments in advance, you should be able to set your students up with the class video and materials with minimal parental assistance. Planning time for the basic lesson is less than 30 minutes.

Learn Together:
If you are interested in extending the concepts learned in our Vitality Classes, you may want to consider leading an Empowerment Group. The Empowerment Group program uses the Real Immunity films to instill terrain theory concepts on a deeper level. The program offers everything needed for a leader to access the film segments and lead a discussion. This program has already been used in homeschool groups across the world. 

Spotlight on College Immunization Policies and Resources for Responding

By Immunization

Households with college-bound students are facing discriminating policies when it comes to college immunization updates requiring students to receive the experimental injection before returning to school, despite the fact that the injection only has Emergency Use Authorization (EUA).

According to the Children’s Health Defense, under the FDA, the Emergency Use Authorized (EUA) defines the injection as experimental and as such, it cannot be mandated. “Under the Nuremberg Code, the foundation of ethical medicine, no one may be coerced to participate in a medical experiment. Consent of the individual is ‘absolutely essential.’” The FDA requires that any EUA product allow recipients “the option to accept or refuse administration of the product.”

Schools with exemptions to such mandates are enforcing unreasonable rules, such as weekly testing at the student’s expense, submission to daily health checks, mask requirements when inside buildings, exclusion from dining halls or areas where there are large gatherings of students, and in some instances, the requirement to attend classes online rather than in person. These students are still required to pay full tuition while receiving separate yet unequal services.

Students starting and returning to college are facing unfair ultimatums if they aren’t willing to get the experimental injection.

How are universities and colleges able to install unconstitutional policies?

Institutions are creatively interpreting data and guidance from WHO, the CDC, and the FDA to wield their messages of discrimination. Colleges are essentially leaving out essential information when convenient. Institutions who purport to teach students critical thinking skills are rejecting essential information when communicating their updated immunization policies, putting a false spin on their messages. They are also using their leverage and influence as accredited institutions to coerce students into getting the experimental injection. Take, for instance, this statement from BYU-Hawaii’s creative interpretation of EUA:

“FDA emergency use approval (EUA) is based on the same principles as full approval but requires data over a shorter period of time (two months vs. six months) and ensures that the data does not sit on someone’s desk and wait to be reviewed. EUA does not mean the vaccine is “experimental.” It means that while there is less data than is generally requested for a standard approval, there is sufficient and compelling data to demonstrate that the benefits outweigh the risks. The Pfizer and Moderna vaccines have already filed for full approval with the incredibly large amounts of data and FDA approval is expected soon. More than 140 million American have been fully vaccinated – there is more safety information about COVID-19 vaccines than any other [injection] in history.”

This statement casually dismisses the importance of data reviewal. Pfizer and Moderna have indeed filed for full FDA approval, but that does not mean they will receive it. It also doesn’t communicate the FDA’s shady history of approving unsafe injections. Furthermore, the safety data that has been shared by both Pfizer and Moderna was cherry picked and they’ve yet to release the full body of raw data, which definitely does not support the statement that “there is more safety information about [the injection] than any other [injection] in history” let alone tell the full story of adverse reactions that continue to pile in.

How do we combat coercion and manipulation? 

For starters, it is important to stop being manipulatable. This means honing our critical thinking skills and getting empowered! It’s amazing how many people will put up with a lousy or intolerant doctor or institution that doesn’t offer options, informed consent or have an open mind to any other opinion. We have to remember that we are the ones in charge, and that we call the shots—not the other way around! Admins at a school are no different. They alone should not be the ones to determine policy. Student tuition pays their salaries. Scroll down for resources on how to share your thoughts and advocate for yourself.

Life 101 and Critical Thinking:

Know when you’re being marketed to with propaganda. It does not take a marketing degree to determine this. Teach your kids how to think critically and not be controlled by the narrative.

Here are some things to ask yourself to gain better discernment:

-Are you presented with both sides of an argument?

-Have you done your own research?

-Have you gotten a second opinion or alternative advice?

-Is there pressure or coercion involved? (Think: Is there a carrot being dangled?)

-Are you being given a choice?

-Whose best interest is at stake?

-Are you able to ask questions and have them respectfully answered without judgement?

-Are you being given informed consent?

-Are there more facts, information, studies that are being left out?

-Are there alternatives, side effects, other options?

-Have your personal interests and unique case been considered in the advice given?

-Is there an emotional or financial investment on the line for the person advocating their perspective?

 

What can you do when you don’t agree with a policy?

It is important now more than ever to speak up—but be professional and articulate. Whether you are dealing with a university who has published a discriminatory policy or a local business who is publishing propaganda about the experimental injection, don’t let anything slide by you without making a statement and sharing your perspective. Don’t get in the habit of ignoring things thinking that is the higher road. Regardless of the slant others may try to put on it, we live in a democracy and your voice is valuable. The more individuals that flood offices with well-written statements sharing their point of view and objections to discriminatory policies, the more those offices will be forced to look at the big picture. It is going to take a grassroots response to make a difference. Let your voice be heard.

Other ideas would be to only patronize institutions and businesses that don’t discriminate against medical choice. Perhaps now is a good time for college students to take a year off to travel, volunteer or pick up a trade or skill. In the meantime, universities will certainly feel the impact on their funding and may be more likely to change their tune if enough students decide to explore other opportunities.

If you see a post, email, note on the door of a business that shares inaccurate information regarding the experimental injection or promotes a discriminating policy, say something! We’ve created a Letter that you can download that includes citations to support you in addressing inaccurate information that you may receive in newsletters, newspapers, emails or see on social media. Edit it to fit your needs and use it to speak up! 

Responding to college immunization policies.

The Real Immunity Team is here to help. We’ve complied a lengthy list of support resources for college students facing mandates, including:

  • Open letters from physicians about the efficacy of the injection
  • Letter templates for religious exemptions
  • Links to legal organizations who are looking for plaintiffs and have created resources to support self-advocacy
  • A list of colleges not requiring the experimental injection
  • Forms requiring schools with mandates to take responsibility for informed consent and adverse injection reactions
  • Links to where you can purchase your own self-testing resources

Homeopathic Solutions for Post-Injection Transmission Syndrome

By Homeopathy, Immunization, Infection

Colleagues and clients from around the world have reached out to inquire about what many seem to be experiencing when in the presence of recently injected individuals.

While there is no conclusion about what could be happening, it’s obvious among practitioners that clients are having symptoms such as headaches, brain fog, and unusual bleeding or menstrual abnormalities. It’s also noted that in the original Pfizer study summary, there are references to the possible shedding of the spike protein through skin to skin contact, or respiratory exposure. So perhaps this is not fueled by imagination.

At Real Immunity we have termed this perplexing phenomenon Post-Injection Transmission Syndrome. (PITS)

The Real Immunity Team has examined the PITS symptoms reported by participants in our recent survey. The symptoms of these participants directly mirror those reported above.

If indeed, we are experiencing some sort of bio-resonance, or perhaps sharing of pheromones, then it makes sense that an energetic intervention could be very helpful.

I have investigated the use of flower essences for immune support. I have used these in my practice and find them to be incredibly effective while being exceptionally gentle. I have identified three essences that could be very helpful. They are Pine, Crabapple, and Yarrow Environmental Solution:

  • Yarrow SF: protective of noxious radiation, pollution, EMF, or residual effects of toxic exposure
  • Pine: supports self-acceptance, forgiveness of self and others, healing process, acceptance
  • Crabapple: associated with being cast out of paradise, physical purification, true evolution/adaptation

Mixed together, these three flower essences can gently support and protect external assaults on the energetic level. Here’s the summary of a study by Jeffrey Cram PhD. reflecting the physiological impact of energy medicine applied with flower essences.

“What’s the Remedy for…” Why You May Be Asking the Wrong Question (To the Wrong Person)

By Homeopathy

We end up trivializing homeopathy when we ask for a remedy for a chronic condition on an online forum. Certified homeopaths go to school for 4-years or more, and study multiple methods for case taking and analysis.  Just some of these methods include Miasmatic, PolyPharmacy, Keynote, Kentian, Hahnemannian, Tautopathy, Sensation, Isopathy, and more. Healing is an art, and not something to put in the hands of someone who calls themselves a homeopath after taking a weekend course!

It is only human to want the easy way out, and with access to information at a click, we’ve developed a bad habit of thinking a quick answer is the right answer. The downside is that it often creates disappointment when we ask “What remedy do I take to cure my ________?” (fill in the blank with any chronic disease)

To understand this concept, we first need to understand the concept of healing.

healing.
the act or process of regaining health

cure.
the eradication of disease or sickness

Healing is a process, and it usually has deep emotional and mental components that can’t be addressed when we ask questions like: “What remedy works for fibromyalgia.” It may be that a remedy or prescription drug can help you feel better for a bit, but it’s only a matter of time before your symptoms return, and often they return with a vengeance after being temporarily suppressed. The absence of symptoms is therefore not the definition of healing.

“In order to heal you must release the emotional patterns that are contributing to your illness.” Dr. Christiane Northrup

In her video titled “How to Heal from Anything,” Dr. Christiane Northrup shares that there is nothing wrong with curing, however it often puts people into “battle mode,” which is not always a conducive approach to healing.

She goes on to say that while not all diseases can be cured, every disease can be healed.In other words, if you’re looking for the shortcut, the one remedy that will finally save you, you’re not really understanding the process of healing. Often homeopaths have to peel back layers and layers as they move a patient through the process of healing. Multiple deep-acting remedies are often applied over an expansive period of time. It is not the “quick fix” method. The first remedy gives way to the second remedy, then the next, and gradual movement towards healing takes place.

“One thing: you have to walk, and create the way by your walking; you will not find a ready-made path. It is not so cheap, to reach to the ultimate realization of truth. You will have to create the path by walking yourself; the path is not ready-made, lying there and waiting for you. It is just like the sky: the birds fly, but they don’t leave any footprints. You cannot follow them; there are no footprints left behind.”  Osho

Beware of anyone who may try to sell you a program to treat something chronic by yourself at home. That’s a major red flag. Healing is not one-size fits all, and you’ll want someone who can work with the unique nuances of your case, and respond attentively to your progress. Here’s where you can find a homeopath with proper credentials: Homeopathicdirectory.com

What things are appropriate to treat yourself?

Any acute issue is appropriate for treating on your own with homeopathy. Acute illnesses are illnesses that are short lived, or have an endpoint. Ear infections, sore throats, coughs, pink eye, colds and flus are all examples of acute illnesses. Most childhood ailments are acute illnesses, which is why a homeopathy kit is one of the greatest gifts one can give to a new parent.

You can gain experience and confidence treating acute minor ailments with homeopathy on your own. The comradery of sharing tips with forum friends for bumps and bruises is supportive and educational. It’s a great idea!

But please exercise caution when you hear recommendations for chronic illnesses. Trivalizing homeopathy with the notion that there is “a remedy” for conditions such as skin conditions, coughs lasting more than a few weeks, or any form of mental illness can be as risky and irresponsible as watching a YouTube to perform cardiac surgery.  Don’t fall prey to the delusion that a temporary cure is actual healing.

Homeoprophylaxis for Fido: Give Your Pup the Gift of Real Immunity

By Homeopathy, Immunization

Just as Homeoprophylaxis (HP) can be used to protect humans from infectious diseases, it can also be used to protect our furry friends.

Not surprising, many of the concerns with conventional immunity products are also an issue when it comes to our pets. The Real Vitality Team consulted with homeopathic veterinarian, Will Falconer, DVM, to discuss some of the problems he has seen in relation to animal shots.

The Real Vitality Puppy HP Program provides your pup with protection against the two most common puppy diseases.

A Dangerous Recommendation

Falconer addresses many of the issues he has witnessed in pets as a result of allopathic care in his online courses and podcasts. One essential take-away is that boosters fail to create an antibody response, making conventional immunity practices unnecessary and ultimately dangerous. Unfortunately, over 80% of veterinarians still recommend booster shots, despite educational efforts of veterinary immunologists. What we’re seeing as a result of these unnecessary recommendations is a huge increase in automimmune diseases, allergies and other chronic illnesses. Our pet’s long-term health is jeopardized. Surprised?

Veterinarians are inundated with messages in school that shots are benign, not unlike what pediatricians are taught. Nothing could be further from the truth. Homeopaths often consider vaccines as obstacles to cure. J. Compton Burnett, M.D. wrote about this back in 1884 when he coined the term “vaccinosis.” It wasn’t until Burnett addressed the history of shots in his patients that he was able to find resolution with homeopathy.

The Research Backs Concern

Purdue University School of Veterinary Medicine conducted several studies examining injuries in dogs. Their findings indicated that shots can cause life threatening immune-mediated disease, autoantibodies to many of their own biochemicals revealing that the dog’s immune systems were attacking themselves, resulting in impaired tissue repair and growth. A further concerning fact discovered in the Purdue studies was that injected dogs developed autoantibodies to their own DNA.

The Journal of Veterinary Medicine published an Italian study in August 2003 showing the incidence of cancers at injection sites in dogs. An increased correlation in arthritis, epilepsy, encephalitis, organ failure and allergies are also correlated with pet shots.

Most conventional vets have long-ignored these red flags. While there are many holistic vets, like Falconer, who have in good conscious halted the dangerous practice altogether, even when a vet claims to be natural, they often still harbor insidious beliefs and will attempt to push the toxic agenda. Pet owners beware! 

Rabies and The Law

What about rabies, you may wonder? State laws often mandate the rabies vaccine in order to license your pet, and rabies can indeed be deadly if contracted. Falconer insists that one rabies shot is enough to confer lifelong immunity. In his free online Rabies Short course, you’ll learn more about the rabies disease and its implications for your pet. He also has several free resources available to help owners navigate the legal ramifications of their choices.

Pictured is Cilla’s dog, Nanny, when she was a pup.

HP to the Rescue
You may at this point be thinking: Can’t I confer immunity onto my puppy, against contagious and deadly diseases like Parvo and Distemper, without the scary side-effects? Maybe you’re a pet owner who has experienced the heartbreak and stress of chronic disease resulting from shots and would like a safe alternative?

The Real Immunity Team is now offering a Puppy Homeoprophylaxis Program containing the remedies you need to address the top two canine diseases: Distemper and Parvo.

Upon purchase, you will receive the following:

  • Your Puppy HP Kit
  • Directions on how to administer doses to your puppy
  • A schedule on how often to administer doses, (and for how long) with a printable chart to help you keep track of dosages
  • Educational links to support your journey

Zeolite Removes Toxins and Heavy Metals

By Immunization

Zeolite can be supportive in removing heavy metals and toxins from the body. Our research indicates that it may be a helpful supplement to include when detoxing from inoculations and other causes of heavy metal toxicity To learn more about zeolite, and it’s benefits, read on.

Zeolite is known to address many symptoms and ailments, including fatigue, sleep issues, weight gain, mood issues and brain fog. It is also known to improve heart health and reduce the effects of aging. Many health problems are rooted in toxicity.

Mercury, arsenic, lead, cadmium, pesticides, and volatile organic compounds just scratch the surface of what our bodies have to fight against daily. By some estimates, we are exposed to over 80,000 chemicals in our daily lives, just from the food we eat, water we drink, and air we breathe. These toxins build up in our bodies affecting our sleep, memory, concentration, weight, and can cause inflammation (1, 2, 3, 4).

Zeolite is a rare natural mineral, created through a reaction of volcanic ash and seawater, that can eliminate toxins from the body, down to the cellular level. Its negative-charge and honeycomb shape acts as a natural chelator, binding to positively-charged toxins and ushering them out of the body, quickly and effectively.

Zeolite Clinoptilolite

Zeolite Clinoptilolite has been widely studied for its ability to:

  • Flush heavy metals from the body, including toxic lead (5)
  • Provide alkalizing minerals to support a healthy pH
  • Protect kidney function by detoxing heavy metals (6)
  • Strengthen the immune system through removing toxins (7)
  • Protect against leaky gut by strengthening the intestinal wall (8)
  • And much more, as extensive clinical research shows (9)

Zeolite Clinoptilolite is hundreds of times more effective than activated charcoal, a commonly known and used detoxifier that can detox the gut but comes with harsh side effects. This is because zeolite Clinoptilolite can bind to toxins throughout the whole body and has an affinity for toxins only, so it never removes beneficial minerals, and there are no negative side effects.

Not All Zeolite Products Are the Same

The problem is, most zeolite products are not capable of cleansing at the cellular level. To go beyond the gut and reach into cells for a deep detox. In order for zeolite to effectively detox at a cellular level, it must be nanosized. When the zeolite is nanosized and suspended in water molecule clusters. This allows it to travel throughout the body, even past the blood-brain barrier. To take out heavy metals and other toxins, however, the zeolite must also be cleansed and pre-filled with alkalizing minerals. Why? When mined, zeolite comes filled with environmental pollutants because that’s what zeolites are good at in nature – absorbing toxins. If a zeolite is already filled with toxins, it can’t take any more from your body. That’s why many brands of zeolites sold today don’t work.

After researching zeolite, we discovered Pure Body Extra Strength, a zeolite product offered by Touchstone Essentials. Their zeolite product is unique due to the cleansing process and nanosizing technology they use. Pure Body Extra Strength is the only zeolite on the market that can effectively detoxify the entire body on a cellular level.

Touchstone Essentials uses nanosized Clinoptilolite to remove toxins in the body. These particles are so small they are invisible to the naked eye and need to be magnified a thousand-fold. Pure Body Zeolite is backed up by the gold standard in instrumentation – Malvern particle size testing. This nanometer size means they can get to a cellular level, and it also means the collective surface area of the zeolite particles creates a vast filter that mops up toxins within hours.

And because these zeolite particles are encapsulated within water molecule clusters, it is delivered in a liquid spray that is easy to use (just a few sprays, morning, noon, and night) with no odor or taste.  Pure Body Extra Strength has also been cleansed of existing pollutants so that it more effectively removes heavy metals throughout your body. This is all proven with third-party independent clinical testing. Not only that, the zeolite particles are pre-filled with alkalizing minerals. That way, the zeolite “swaps” a beneficial mineral for a toxin every time. In all our research, this zeolite product has the most rigorous research and testing.

Influenzinum CV30 Survey Results

By Homeopathy, Immunization

View the slideshow presentation of this survey here. (Images below can be viewed more clearly in the slideshow presentation.)

Homeoprophylaxis (HP) is not aimed at treating disease, but instead increases the vitality of the individual, and thus increases innate immunity. In an effort to further explore this safe and natural homeopathic alternative to boosting immunity in defense of contracting illness, I undertook a casual survey based upon self-reporting by recipients of homeoprophylaxis described below.

Objectives

The objectives of this casual observation were to understand how homeoprophylactic influenzinumCV could affect the type, intensity, and duration of symptoms typical of SARS-CoV-2 infections and/or seasonal flu-like illnesses.

Methodology

Methodology included the preparation of vials of influenzinum CV30. They were distributed to the recipients between January 2020 and August 2020. 508 participants then completed a self-administered online survey after administering at least one oral dose of influenzinum CV30. All surveys were completed by the 30th of September 2020, and data was summarized from responses.

Remedy Choice

Selection of the remedy was made in consultation with Dr. Isaac Golden, the world’s leading authority on homeoprophylaxis. Multiple historical strains of influenza plus the inclusion of pneumococcinum to prevent sequelae of respiratory symptoms were determined to be an effective choice. Dr. Golden also recommended that “genus epidemicus” (GE) remedies could be included as determined.

GE remedies are remedies that match the common symptoms in current cases. This can be a moving target. As things mutate, we see different symptoms emerge as more or less prominent, requiring the GE remedies to be adjusted accordingly. The inclusion of GE remedies were included for Cuba and India’s choices for prophylactics, but was not included in InfluenzinumCV. Our preparation was composed of:

Influenza A and B including:

  • A/New Caledonia/20/99(H1N1) virus 30c
  • A/Moscow/10/99(H3N2) virus 30c
  • B/Sichuan/379/99 virus 30c
  • Bacillinum 30c
  • Pneumococcinum 30c

30c potency was chosen to avoid possible aggravations related to any unknown comorbidities, chronic conditions, or suppressive medications being taken by recipients. The directions given to the recipients were to take one dose in a clean mouth, 5 minutes away from any food. They could take one to four doses a month, depending on exposure. An alternate method would be to dissolve a dose in water, stir, and take a teaspoon of water per dose.

Some dosing variation was dependent upon exposure. If known exposure occurred, for instance family members living in the same home, the recommended dose was three times per week. If individuals had pre-existing chronic conditions, it was recommended that they dose in water and only once a month. And if traveling by air or being in large crowds, it was recommended that they dose prior to flying and once returning home.

Survey questions included were age, symptoms, including fever, nasal congestion, headache, body aches, shortness of breath and fatigue. Additionally, a question included indicating the duration of symptoms, either one to three days, four to seven, eight to 10 or more than 10 days. Were they tested for SARS-CoV-2 infections/ And was that negative or positive?

Findings

Findings included 400 of the 508 participants having no symptoms whatsoever. 108 had some symptoms. Of the 108 that had symptoms, 81 of them had symptoms lasting only one to three days. 15 of them had four to seven days, and then 6 had eight to ten days. And six had more than 10 days. (Figure 1.1)

Figure 1.1

 

109 people tested for COVID out of the group and nine tested positive. 100 tested negative, and nine tested positive. Of those nine that tested positive, four of them had no symptoms whatsoever. Three of them had symptoms for one to three days. And two of them had symptoms for eight to 10 days. No one had symptoms for more than 10 days. (Figure 2.1)

Figure 2.1

In the zero to 10-year-old age group, there were 99 respondents with 25 (25%) of them reporting having symptoms. In the 11 to 18-year-old age group, with 63 respondents, nine of them (under 15%) had symptoms. In the 19 to 29-year-old age group, with 42 respondents, 10 of them had some sort of symptoms. In the 30 to 49-year-old age group with 147 respondents. 37 of them had some symptoms. In the 50 to 64-year-old group, with 91 respondents, 18 had symptoms. And in the 65 and over group, with 66 respondents, only 9 had symptoms. We saw the greatest reporting of symptoms in the 30 to 49-year-old group.

Across the entire group of 109 respondents who experienced any symptoms fever was reported a total of 27 times. Nasal congestion was reported 74 times. Headache was reported 71 times, body aches, 47 times, shortness of breath, 16 times and fatigue, 56 times. The most predominant symptoms were nasal congestion and headache amongst the entire group. If we look at the specific symptoms by age, we see that fever was reported most, in the zero to 10-year-old group, possibly indicating the more robust immune response by children.

Headaches were reported predominantly by the 30 to 49 year-old-group. Body aches, also in the 30 to 49-year-olds. Shortness of breath had virtually no reports between zero and 29 years old, with a few reports between ages 30 and 49, with a few more in the 50 to 64-year-old group. Fatigue was seen most in the 30 to 49-year-old group, and we might be able to conclude that they’re parents of young children, so they’re also the busiest age group that’s losing sleep and most active.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the majority of participants (79%) had no symptoms whatsoever. 21% had mild symptoms. Those symptoms were primarily headache and nasal congestion. The duration of the symptoms were predominantly lasting one to three days for 75% of people. The majority of people using influenzinum CV did not test, even if they experienced symptoms. This may indicate that they had no fear, or anxiety, even though they had a few symptoms. The use of InfluenzinumCV seems to have had a positive effect on enhanced immunity, as evidenced by reduced frequency and shorter duration of symptoms, post administration of InfluenzinumCV, and definitely warrants further investigation.

Considerations to include for future research would be a screening for outliers, and comorbidities.  It would also be helpful to gather information about nutritional supplementation being used, positive known exposures to the illness, gender of respondent, and region of the U.S.

So this is the additional information that I mentioned early that played into consideration. First of all, the risks that are associated with influenza vaccines. This was a recent study done in the 2017/18 flu season. Those who received flu vaccine had a 36% increase risk of being susceptible to all Corona viruses.

—————————————–

Addendum

Throughout the world, other various HP methodologies have also been employed.

  • Some individuals used Oscillococcinum, an over-the-counter homeopathic product from Boron made from heats and liver of fowl. It has been effectively used for many years as a basic preventative during annual flu seasons.
  • The government of India recommended using homeopathic Arsenicum album 30c. The Indian government positively endorses the use of homeoprophylaxis and determined that Arsenicum album would be the most helpful prophylactic based upon repertorization of symptoms. Repertorization is a homeopathic method utilizing different rubrics that reflect predominant symptoms, expressed by a specific infectious disease.  (Figure 3.1)

Figure 3.1

  • Cuba created a ‘combination remedy.’ Within their robust department of natural medicine, and the director of epidemiology within the ministry of public health, Johann Perdomo Delgado, stated, “Sublingual drops of the compound PrevenHo-Vir, prevent different diseases, such as influenza, the common cold, dengue, and emerging viral infections such as this one.”
  • Sponsored by the Cuban Department of Natural Traditional Medicine, Ministry of Public Health, the inclusion criteria were: individuals between 18 and 64 without any respiratory symptoms at the time of administration, excluding anyone allergic to any components. They administered this in a diluted liquid form, with five drops diluted in an additional two ounces of drinking water, administered daily for three consecutive days. Another single dose was administered one week later on day 10. The liquid was retained it in their mouth for five seconds, guaranteeing sublingual contact.
  • Free and Healthy Children International recommended using the homeopathic ‘nosode’ (a remedy prepared from exudate of the disease)
  • Lastly, the ‘genus epidemicus,’ was recommended as well.  This is a curative remedy chosen based on associated common symptoms once the illness is contracted and treated. The genus epidemicus remedy that was determined by a number of homeopathic physicians from hospitals in India, was homeopathic Mercurius.

“Short cuts make long delays.”

 J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

I’d like to share with you a story that has become rather commonplace in my practice, one that is an example of an alarming situation many of my homeopathic colleagues face.

Meet Diane, a 43-year-old woman who came to me with a laundry list of symptoms, but worse than that, a laundry list of remedies she has been on (many of which she takes daily) for the past 18 months. Diane’s symptoms, although complex, weren’t as overwhelming and painstaking as the sorting out process that we underwent when she first came to me.

After years of practicing allopathic homeopathy and taking a handful of remedies for her chronic issues, Diane sought constitutional care in hopes of finally resolving her on-going issues.

Diane’s symptoms, although complex, weren’t as overwhelming and painstaking as the sorting out process we underwent, as Diane was on 9 self-prescribed remedies after having taken a home-study course on homeopathy.

Before we go into the issues that can result from self-prescribing or taking multiple remedies at one time, it is important to note that for acute situations, (ailments and complaints that are short-lasting) homeopathy is often successfully employed by self-taught individuals, and this is generally accepted since detrimental effects are far less likely to occur. Many parents have effectively used homeopathy to address teething, cold and flu symptoms, ear aches and other common acute childhood ailments. However, when it comes to chronic, long-term issues, take caution when gathering information from blogs or online materials and forums; chronic cases are often more complex and require a consult with a certified homeopath.

There are many reasons why classically trained homeopaths recommend against taking more than one remedy at a time. The conundrum in Diane’s case was not so much the symptom picture that was presenting, but the significant amount of energy required to educate her on why taking more than one remedy at a time could potentially delay the healing process. It took several conversations for her to finally grasp that the way she was using homeopathy previously was more of an allopathic approach and didn’t follow the same set of guidelines that classical homeopaths are trained to evaluate cases and progress with.

Let’s examine some of the issues that arise with allopathic homeopathy. For starters, sorting out a case like Diane’s requires patience that most individuals drawn to the practice of multiple remedy taking frankly aren’t often very excited about. The homeopath needs not only to take the case, but to sort out whether any of the remedies being taken are helping or causing issues. It is essential to identify any potential aggravations occurring, as well as any healing crises that may be caused by one of the many remedies.

From Homeopath, George Vithoulkas’ The Science of Homeopathy, “The practice of giving combinations of remedies obviously violates all of the fundamental laws of homeopathy—and common sense as well…Such practice can only create complete chaos, and indeed some of the most pitiable cases in homeopathic practice are those who have undergone years of such chaotic treatment. The defense mechanism of such patients is so disturbed that it is often completely impossible to restore their health to even the level prior to such prescribing, let alone bring about a cure.”

I say all of this because it has become regular practice for some homeopaths to prescribe multiple remedies, or for students of such homeopaths to take matters into their own hands and self-prescribe multiple remedies, only to realize many months into this practice, as Diane did, that they are not making appropriate gains in their healing, or worse, that they are being detrimentally affected. Still others find that they are dependent upon their daily intake of remedies to feel normal, pointing to the remedies acting suppressively.

When enlisting the help of a classical homeopath, it is essential that people who have taken multiple remedies in the past realize that their treatment will look very different compared to what they were used to, as only one remedy will be given at a time. The case will need to be reexamined after the initial remedy prescription and a new remedy is often selected at that time. It is often necessary that a client wait a period of time after going off their multiple-remedy schedule before starting their constitutional remedy.

What is often thought to be the inexpensive and quick route to healing with homeopathy has become something that many are finding is quite the opposite: a painstakingly long route to regaining health that can often require long-term care from a classically trained homeopath. Before you are deluded into allopathic homeopathy, that can have detrimental effects to overall vitality, consider making an appointment with a classical homeopath to determine if homeopathy is right for you.

Selecting Kali Salt Remedies

By Homeopathy

Having a familiarity with the Kali salt remedies is especially helpful when selecting a remedy when there is mucous production involved.

In her class, Kali Salts, Cilla explains some of the keynotes of the Kali personality. She explains that often Kali-types are rigid in their principles, and are strongly family-oriented individuals who tend to suppress their sensations. They often thrive with routines and can be controlling and fearful as well. Often stomach symptoms can be expressed due to stress and suppressed fears.

Knowing the Kali-Constitutional type can help one determine if a Kali-remedy would be helpful in an acute case.

Like many of the mineral remedies, pressure can be a keynote seen when taking the case of a Kali-constitution. Interesting enough, many of the aggravations experienced by Kali types can come up between 2am-4am because this is when their guards are down enough to allow them to be evoked through the subconscious.

Cilla does an analysis of various Kali-types, sharing a description of the Kali-ars, Kali-phos, Kali-brom and Kali-sulph attributes.

This is a great class for those interested in learning more about this interesting mineral constitutional type, as well as the layperson interested in becoming more attuned with selecting remedies to address symptoms related to mucous production, including sinus infections, white or yellow discharges, menstrual discharges, coughs and more.
