Homeopathy for Flu Pandemics

From Andre Saine:

How does homeopathy address patients with infectious diseases? Homeopathic treatment is ideal to optimize the body's natural defenses against microbes. With the appropriate homeopathic treatment, people recover from infectious diseases, even the most serious ones, gently and rapidly. During past great epidemics such as diphtheria, scarlet fever, typhoid, cholera, yellow fever, malaria, etc., homeopathy decreased mortality by 10 to 30 times versus conventional medicine. During the infamous Spanish flu epidemic of 1918-19, it has been estimated that 25 to 50 million people died worldwide. In the United States alone, 550,000 died, approximately 10% of the people afflicted with the flu. Homeopathic physicians documented then more than 62,000 patients treated with homeopathy resulting in a mortality of 0.7%. For people who were sick enough to be hospitalized, conventional medicine had a mortality of 30% while with 27,000 documented hospitalized cases, homeopathy was reporting a mortality of 1.05% (Journal of the American Institute of Homeopathy 1921; 13:1028-43).


I don't have much time right now to talk at length on my views of this Swine Flu epidemic, and to do the research needed to write a descent article (I hope to do this in the following week) But seriously, how many people die yearly in North America from the flu? And compare to how many have died from this H1N1 influenza?

Luckily the stats on Homeopathy and past flu epidemics give me the confidence to say there's nothing to fear.

The Immortal Jellyfish

If a remedy of this little creature - Turritopsis nutricula - hasn't been proven I believe it's time. Who knew an animal actually exists that defies death and reverts to a colonial polyp stage to start again. Incarnation without demise!

Rajan Sankaran has recently put out a book on mollusks, and though this creature isn't a mollusk it would be an interesting addition to the book.

This remedy could be the ultimate sea remedy combining the themes. According to Massimo Mangialavori the link between sea life and the uterus is clear - how does an animal who lives in the sea and keeps reverting to infancy relate homeopathicaly to a human? Would it have medusa themes as the two creatures are related?

Sea remedy themes include isolation, difficulty communicating, aversion to company, desire for solitude, mood swings, issues of independence and dependence, grief, sadness, and depression

I challenge someone to do a proving of this remedy and I would love to help you out.
