Immune system

What is immune system. ?
The immune system is the part of our body that protects us from the constant atack of bacteria and viruses in our body. The bone marrow, spleen, liver, thymus, lymph nodes and white blood cells are the main soldiers that protect our immune system from this kind of an onslaught.
One of the most important things for a strong immune system is the right kind of lifestyle, proper diet and a good nutrition. Our bodies are currently attacked by hundreds of toxic chemicals and pollution everyday. We are also exposed to a wide variety of bacteria viruses, fungi and parasites that keep on forming newer breeds each time which again is a result of an exposure to our human advancement technology like radiology, harmful chemicals antibiotics etc.
The cells and organs of each human being is made different from another since the body requires a system of recognition that protects it from all that is foreign and maintains the uniqueness of each person. These cells and organs of the body constitue the immune system. E.g. If the white blood cells that roam throughout the body find out some foreign body, they attack it and remove it from the body. That is why organ transplant patients must have their immune system suppressed or else the body will recognize the foreign tissue and attack it.
Antibiotics are nowdays highly overused making the body not only depend on them but also contributing to being one of the main and most common causative factors for reduced immunity. Common illness have now become more and more difficult to treat, because of the newer, complex and more powerful strains of bacteria and viruses formed due to the abuse of these antibiotics.
One should help teach the body how to fight an illness by using more natural and non toxic means of treatment and also by taking in good nutrition and a balanced diet.
Food nutrients and lifestyle factors which boosts the immune system.
When trying to get recover from on illness, one should learn to take in more of fluids Water soups, and sugar free drinks like vegetables and fruit juices and unrefined foods

Experience some Potencies.

In some cases a particular medicine is found and known to be more useful in a particular Potency than in any other Potency. Such Potencies have been regarded as specific by clinical experiences.To illustrated Sabal serrulata for prostatitic enlargement in third centesimal Potency has worked better than Q or any other Potency. Similarly, Stellaria media in 2 x works excellently..
Some Nosodes act better in high potency I.e.200 and some in 30 c potency and above 200 Medorrhinum and Sphyilinum works better in 200 and higher Potencies only.
Bowel Nosodes As a general rule use the high potency when the mentals are prominent for gross pathology and marked pathological symptoms employ the lower Potencies.
With outstanding mentals the Nosodes in 1 m Potency or higher maybe preferred but if there is evidence of advanced pathological conditions such as advanced rheumatoid arthritis or malignancy, the 6 th decimal may be employed.
Homoeopathy has also taken up vaccine therapy and dr. J.G. Hare of London Homoeopathic hospital has introduced the use 3x and 30 x Potencies of the vaccines.i.e Staphylococcin, Staphylococcus, Streptococcin, Bacillus Acnes, Bacillus coli, Bacillus influenza, Bacillus typhus Gonococcus etc.
Glandular medicines such as Brain, Corpus lut, Mammary, Ovarian parotid, Pancreatin, Parathyroid, Pineal, Pituitary, Placenta, Prostate, Superarental, Secretin, Spleen, Thymus and Throid are used in low Potency 3x or 6x .
The curative power of certain medicines is even available in low Potencies and as such drs like Boericke and Clarke have recommended their use in low Potencies, such medicines are Abies can ( 1st to 3rd) Absinthium 1st to 6 th Ars iod 2,to3x etc.
Experience tells us the following medicines are very useful in 30 the Potencies.
Aconite, Ant crud Ant tart, Aurum met, Baptisia, Belladonna, Coculus, Corallium Dulcamara Eupt perf Ferrum met Gels etc.
Where physician is not in a position to make distinction in between the two medicines and he is in a great confusion owing to the similarity of symptoms he may select either of two medicines which has the majority of the characteristic symptoms and give the same in lower attenuation 6 to 12 . Although correct prescription brings reputation to Homoeopath but to err is human. That is why it has rightly been remarked that a Homoeopath may fail but never does the Homoeopathy.
General principles
All those cases which could not be covered earlier are described below for the guidance of the practitioners.
High Potencies are advised in following cases.
The more the symptoms are functional rather than organic.
The more dynamic and or deep acting the nature of the drug.
To antidotes the ill effects of low Potencies and crude drugs ( remembering the hazard in the use of high Potencies in organic destructive disorders)
To rouse reaction in refractory cases.
The higher and highest dilutions are more useful in
All diseases of nervous system generally
In all sensitive persons of both sexes particularly those who have never taken any medicine of any kind.
Diseases of skin.
Low Potencies are advise
In dynamic or low conditions of the vital force.
For palliative purpose with partial indications
In acute disease low Potencies . When dealing with vegetable substance low Potencies, lesions disorders low Potencies, if you administere a medicine for one Symptom alone, the low Potency for functional disorders medium Potencies.
Some medicines have their own donts particularly in high Potencies. For example Silicea and Sulphur high are dangerous drugs to be given when there's a structural disease in organs that are  vital.Phosphours in high potency be avoided in phthisis in a chronic case Lycopodium high at the start is advisable.Belladona in high potency if frequently repeated may prove fatal.High Potency of Kali carb in gout, Psorinum in asthma are prohibited.Silicea high must not be administered to cases who have been grafted with foreign/ artificial matter
When high potency has been administerd in an incurable case or one with marked pathological changes and it has resulted in aggarvations which the vital energy can not cope with or the aggregation is very painful, the patient is going near to the end of life, the physician must antidotes.
When lamp of life is burning very low the exhibition of Homoeopathic medicine high or low is probably like a gust of wind.
In domestic practice the lower attenuations may be used with much greater safety than the higher.

Celliac disease

Celliac disease is an autoimmune disease triggered by the consumption of Gluten containing foods.
Gluten is a general name for the proteins found in wheat berries, semolina spelt farina rye barley and triticale.Gluten helps foods maintain their shape acting as a glue that holds foods together gluten found in many types of foods such as bread, soups pasta cereals.
The medical approach for celliac disease is a life long gluten free diet it may not be enough to prevent may complications associated with disease, have intestinal abnormalities.
Allergic symptoms of Gluten

Etc.
Gluten in food industry refers to storage proteins in all grain. These storage proteins are beneficial in food production, gluten free to the medical community refers only to the small intestine known to damage the small intestine for persons​with gluten sensitive enteropathy ( celliac disease and dermatitis herptiformis) gluten free diet should avoid the storage proteins found in wheat berries semolina spelt farina rye barley and other cereals.
People who have been advised by their physician to be on a gluten free diet should eat gluten free food.

The condition is difficult to live with and is not helped by fad dieters.
The trick here's to find eggs and wheat other'cereals free from gluten.
The majority of our factories are not grain free and therefore the products made in them cannot classed as gluten free. Consumers must read the ingredients list to be cleared when a products contains any alleric ingredients as per the recipe or trance amounts, for gluten intolerance or allergies such ingredients would be cereals such as wheat barley rye oats groundnut etc amongst others.

Epilepsy

Epilepsy means a tendency to have seizers and a symptom of brain disease where there are periodical changes in the neurological function, which is often accompanied by alterations in consciousness due to excessive, abnormal, electrical impulses from the nerve cells within the brain.The epileptic seizures are divided into generalized seizures or partial seizures.In generalized seizures ( grand mal) the patient gets an aura that is followed by loud crying, biting of his own tounge, increased salivation or deveops froth at mouth, there may be violent jerking of limbs he , he may urinate or defecate and there can be resultant sudden loss of consciousness with total loss of memory for the attack. The petit amal type of eilepsy is the one that is usually seen in small children with complaints of cessation of mental activity for a few seconds, without loss of consciousness and without the patient realizing what had happened. These are also termed as absence attacks, where the person or the child becomes absent from his surrounding for a brief period of time and any movements of the lid, lip and tounge are possible. Continuous convulsive movements without any epileptic free Periods and without the patient regaining awareness between the attacks, usually lasting for more than twenty four hours is called as status epilepticus.
The patient usually comes with a history of involuntary urination and defecation, head injury, high fever labor, metabolic disorders ( hypoglycemia, hypocalcaemia, hyponatremia, hypomagnesemia, renal failure) certain drugs ( Pencillin isoniazid. Antimalarial, cyclosporin , phenothiazine, tricyclics, lignocaine etc) tumor, hydrocephalus infections ( menigitis, encephalopathy) cerebrovascular accidents multiple sclerosis SLE or excessive intake of alcohol.
An epileptic patient is not allowed to drive, cycle or swim and not allowed to work near fire, machinery or water, since the patient can get an attack at any time And any place. The patient should take only a shallow bath, without locking the door of and that too when someone is present in the home. The patient should be assured that a normal life is possible, along with medications.
During an attack, put the patient in a semi prone position with head low and roll the patient onto any side to the secretions flow out of the mouth, instead of it getting aspirated into the lungs and leading to further complications. Ensure that the airway is clear. Pressing the tounge down with the help of a spoon is necessary to prevent a tounge bite and is also useful to prevent the Fallin back of the tounge ( leading to respiratory obstruction) . For convulsions that occur in small children immerse the legs of the Child in hot Water for five to ten minutes after which if the attack goes away, the child should be wiped dry. If the child is not better or if the attack occurs again, follow the same procedure again and also apply some cold water simultaneously to the head of the Child.
The person who had an epileptic attack may occasionally be drowsy and confused for about half an hour to one hour and should not be left alone until he has recovered completely. If the convulsions continue for more than five minutes or if it recurs without the person getting conscious, one needs immediate medical attention.
