Summary |
Homeopathy is becoming increasingly popular among average Americans, who may have become dissatisfied with allopathic medicine. Homeopathic ingredients and methods are more widely available, and being better explained in books and on the internet. More consumers are looking toward these products for the relief of physical and mental complaints and long tern disorders.
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. It is an approach that individualizes medicines according to the person’ 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. The whole person, not just the physical body but also the mental and/or emotional 'bodies, is what counts”.
There are some excellent products on the market today that claim to work within the principles and practices of homeopathy. One can certainly research the subject online and find more than sufficient supplements, pills, powders, tinctures, and salves to buy and attempt to use appropriately for mental and physical ailments.
We will here take a look at a particular product on the retail website: 1800homeopathy. Anxiety #320 is another formula labeled for the relief of restlessness, jittery nerves, and depressed spirits at their site. It contains Caffeine, which seems counterintuitive but is in keeping with the principle of like treats like.

The “homeopathic ingredients” in this product are: Aconite, Caffeinum, Kali phos, Natrum carb and Passiflora
|
| Ingredients in Focus |
|
Aconite is used as a tincture, salve, and even sometimes injected. It is said to relieve everything from fever and laryngitis, to the pain of aneurism. Numbness in the mouth and a creeping/crawling skin sensation has been reported by some. It should not be ingested by children or the elderly as is often reported.
In Homeopathy a diluted amount of an herb is employed to act on that which it causes. They will therefore see some benefit in using an amount of caffeine to “treat” nerves and jitters, generally associated with over consumption.
Kali Phos, or Phosphate of Magnesium, and is used for illness of the senses, dullness, listlessness, moodiness and weepiness, as well as convulsions, itchiness, headache, nausea, lockjaw, gastric symptoms due to coffee consumption, asthma and PMS.

| Final Thoughts |
|
Homeopathy is a field of study becoming ever more respected and less mystified. In fact, Western medicine uses the basic principle of Homeopathy, The Law of Similars in inoculation. A good homeopath will always take a complete medical history before prescribing any herbal tincture or pills.
The ingredients in 1800Homeopathy’s Anxiety #320, we believe require extensive and further investigation. The formula would benefit from the inclusion of natural lithium which may act on anxiety, tearfulness, anger, moodiness, and headaches. Seek out manufactures, confident to offer free samples for your evaluation.
