1st USA Ebola case in Texas

[Fran Sheffield]

Hi Souroush,

I agree with your statements as well but the fact is that most complexes are being used by OTC consumers because they find they help a particular problem - usually a simple acute or to palliate a symptom. If they choose to do this, are they wrong? Should they be stopped? Or should we choose to live comfortably with complexes, ensuring everyone understands their limitations (including some flakey manufacturers) and the ideal of homeopathic treatment?

My serious concerns with complexes are:
1. Manufacturers are presenting them as true homeopathy
2. People are being led to believe they are excellent or appropriate for serious or chronic conditions
3. Instructions tell people to give / take them indefinitely - there is no advice or awareness of aggravations / provings
4. No distinction is made about palliation, suppression or cure.
5. They are being marketed / given repeatedly to infants / children by caring / desparate parents without any understanding of the above ... and to their discomfort (I have not seen suppression or long-term harm - just aggravations)

Unfortunately, with the exception of point 2, the same thing is happening with the single remedy so they're not complex-specific problems, more problems of practice, marketing, and education.
If we can correct those problems we will be doing well, including the true practice of homeopathy, as people will know the potentised substance works but in the case of chronic symptoms, only temporarily, so they should make haste to the professional homeopath. That has certainly been my experience of them. I just wish we could fix the numbered problems.
Fran.

I agree mostly - but we can speak out everytime we see it, we can teach others constantly, we can certainly point out when someone on a homeopathy lists talks about doing more than one remedy at a time. We don't have control over manufacturers (other than not buy from them) or on stores who sell them or on people who buy them. But we can teach.

True some get introduced to homeopathy this way and go on to learn more and better. But many don't have results or have problems and don't go further with true homeopathy
