kaliums

[Joy Lucas]

Dear all, here is the first remedy group comparisons. Hope you find it
useful. I am thinking of doing the bowel nosodes in the new year. Happy
holiday reading.
The Kaliums have quite a lot in common:- WEAKNESS, ALTERNATING SYMPTOMS,
HAGGARD OR ANXIOUS LOOKING FACIAL EXPRESSIONS, CATARRHS, BACKACHES, OEDEMA,
DELUSIONS ABOUT BODY, OPEN AIR, > MOVING
SLOWLY, ASTHMA, EPILEPSY, BULIMIA and ANOREXIA. They can be hungry but food
nearly always agg. They are nearly all controlled and conservative in their
behaviour and outlook. There is a certain rigidity.

HOT KALIUMS = ACETICUM; BROMATUM; IODATUM; NITRICUM; PERMANGANICUM;
SULPHURATUM; SULPHURICUM.

COLD KALIUMS = ARSENICOSUM; BICHROMICUM; CARBONICUM; CHLORICUM; CYANATUM;
FERROCYANTUM; MURIATICUM; OXALICUM; PHOSPHORICUM; SILICATA;

TIME MODALITIES =

ACETICUM = loud belching
BICHROMICUM = > open air (not gastric, > cold weather (itch), > motion, pressure, > day,
CHLORICUM = > nose bleeds, > sneezing
CHLOROSUM = ?
CITRICUM = ?
CYANATUM = motion
FERROCYANATUM = rest
IODATUM = open air
MURIATICUM = gentle motion

All the various Kaliums have affinities with various organs and body parts
and are thus indicated in corresponding pathology (OF COURSE ONLY WHEN THE

The Kaliums are a bright and colourful group of remedies, either by their
original substance, affinity to certain conditions such as haemorrhages, or
by their discharges.

ACETICUM = red
ARSENICOSUM = blue
BICHROMICUM = blue
CARBONICUM = yellow
CHLORICUM = blue
CYANATUM = blue

OXALICUM = blue
PERMANGANICUM = red
PHOSPHORICUM = multi
PICRICUM = yellow
SILICATA = red
SULPHURATUM = yellow
SULPHURICUM = yellow
TARTARICUM = dark green

In summary I think that one of the most important applications of the
kaliums could be in Anorexia and bulimia. Sabadilla has often been thought
of as a prominent remedy in these cases but the Kaliums really need looking
at for this. Anyone who has any cases and would care to share them with us
would be great.

Thanks for reading.

Best wishes, Joy Lucas
