In his health practice, and as owner of two thriving health and
nutrition stores, David Card has consulted with thousands of clients for
over 40 years, using homeopathic remedies. People who see him want to
take care of their own and their family's health in the most
self-sufficient way possible. Since most folks don't have access to a
trained homeopathic practitioner at a moment's notice, Dave recognized
the need for an easy-access book, free of jargon, that could be their
"go to" for dozens of conditions. Homeopathy Today is current,
interesting to read, and full of common-sense lists to assist any newbie
in this field. Yet, it will serve as a standard for seasoned
practitioners who will recognize Dave's grounded understanding, coupled
with his intuitive sensitivity gained from decades of experience.
Homeopathy is a traditional system of medicine that treats both physical
and emotion symptoms of disease or imbalance with small, even minute,
doses of a natural substancenprimarily from plants (like lobelia, for
instance) or from minerals (like zinc, etc.). The system has been used
for over 200 years by hundreds of millions of people worldwide.
Homeopathics are natural, low-cost and non-toxic remedies. They can be
used by adults and children regardless of age, gender, special
conditions like pregnancy, or the use of other medications. From common
colds and flu to more challenging situations like anxiety and migraine
headaches, homeopathic remedies have a long history of efficacy. In more
than 2,000 double-blind scientific studies around the world, homeopathic
medicines have been proven to work.
The World Health Organization cites that homeopathic medicine should be
used alongside conventional medicine to provide adequate global
healthcare. Medical professionals in many countries recommend
homeopathic medicine first, and most pharmacists in Europe dispense
herbs and homeopathics as well as conventional medications.
Using homeopathy is as simple as matching the symptoms of the person
with the right homeopathic remedy. And this book is designed to make
that process easy, clear and immediately applicable. More than symptom
relief, however, homeopathic medicine also deals with underlying health
issues. Often, when Western medicine has no answers, many people have
turned to homeopathy and found significant help. "We don't always know
the mechanisms at work here," says the author, "but we certainly see the
results!"
