Summary |
The inability to sleep plagues many of us form time to time. Stress, worry, fear, phobia, anticipation are just a few factors that contribute to a night of tossing and turning. Occasionally pain from injury or illness keeps us awake. Then in particular our bodies need the precious hours of unconsciousness to heal itself. When we may already be ingesting a compound of chemicals to treat what ails us physically, many consumers turn to homeopathic products to induce and support a healthy night’s sleep.
Insomnia – Tissue A, is a supplement that claims to offer “a natural solution to the sleeplessness caused by stress, nerves, pain and exhaustion…” We found this herbal formula online at 1800homeopathy a retailer’s website we appreciate for its reasonable pricing, ingredient disclosure and 19th century inspired website design. We will look more closely at the balance of herbs and their effectiveness here given the basic homeopathic principle known as the Law of Similars.

 | Ingredients at a Glance |
|
Product is said to contain: “Ferrum phos, Kali phos and Mag phos”
|
 | Ingredients in Focus |
|
Ferrum phosphoricum, is a homeopathic remedy compound. The homeopathic formula of iron phosphate is derived from mixing iron sulfate, phosphate, and sodium acetate. A trained homeopathic health professional will prescribe Ferrum phos for people who are described as nervous, sensitive people, and disturbed by anxiety-provoking dreams who experience tickling coughs accompanied by chest pain, laryngitis, red and swollen tonsils, fevers that start slowly, incontinence and heart palpitations
Kali phos is given for mental or physical exhaustion often brought on by extreme stress, over-exertion, and anemia, following flu or an acute illness. Complaints can be accompanied by profuse sweat after the slightest physical exertion. We found some good, if somewhat confusing information about Kali phos on a website on homeopathic remedies, “…Illusions of the senses, forgetful, dullness and inability to think clearly.
Homeopathic remedies are not taken with water, but allowed to dissolve in the mouth. Patients under the care of a homeopath are instructed to avoid coffee.

Fever causing sleeplessness is a precarious situation, physiologically and mentally. Sound sleep is critical when one’s resistance is low, as when our antibodies are at work against virus and infection. It may not be wise to add sleeping pills that contain a cocktail of drugs foreign to the body at this time when we are vulnerable.
As homeopathy increases in popularity among average Americans and the ingredients and methods are more widely available, more consumers are seeking information and safe, time-tested, natural solutions. But what is homeopathy, exactly? According to one “medical” website, “Homeopathy respects the wisdom of the body. It utilizes medicines that stimulate the body's own immune and defense system to initiate the healing process.”
The concept of treating the 'whole person' is an essential element of classical homeopathy. The basis of this belief is that symptoms, diseases or pains do not exist in isolation, but are a reflection of how the person as a whole is coping with stress.
With this in mind, and considering what we have learned about the ingredients in Insomnia-Tissue A, we should also consider, as consumer whether our sickness, pain, and sleeplessness have a deeper, less conspicuous cause.

 | Final Thoughts |
|
Insomnia – Tissue A might be a suitable alternative for the consumer experiencing sleeplessness associated with illness, pain and stress. One should always remain alert to one’s symptoms, how one is feeling before, during, and after he/she introduces anything new into the body’s delicate systems. Inability to sleep could be the cause or the effect of the absence of mental or physical health.
A product that contains elemental lithium should be considered by the consumer self-medicating for sleeplessness caused by anxiety, sickness, or a mild mood disorder. Free trials are available for natural Lithium based supplements.
