Prescription Drugs

Homeopathic treatment is now the second most used treatment in the world.  This treatment is reliable, has no side effects and usually isn’t tested on animals although you will need to be sure of this and the fact that they have no animal ingredients.  Your GP can refer you to one of several NHS homeopathic clinics around the country in London, Tunbridge Wells, Liverpool, Glasgow and Bristol.  The Faculty of Homeopathy can give you details on homeopathy; their number is 0870 444 3955.  Alternatively, the Alliance of Registered Homeopaths (Tel no; 08700 736 339) can give you a number of private homeopaths you can use.  You can also log onto www.alternative-homeopathic-remedies.com and www.shirleys-wellness-café.com for some remedies and more information.  Your local health shop is also likely to have a selection of homeopathic remedies. 

There’s also many natural readily available foods you can use for treatments;

Heart problems; garlic, avocado, beet.

Digestive problems; almond nuts, apples.

Problems with immune system; cranberries.

Depression/ anxiety; counselling, meditation, yoga, potatoes (these contain serotonin).

Headaches/ migraines; natural apple cider vinegar can be placed in a pan boiling with an equal amount of water.  This can be inhaled, with your head over the pan for around five minutes.  Biofeedback (when a person can be trained to control their nervous system), chiropractic care or chiropractic manipulations.

Constipation; A diet high in fruits and vegetables, grains, legumes should help to prevent this occurring initially.  However, if you are suffering from it, psyllium seed will relieve you and high fibre fruit such as raspberries or blueberries will help as well as plenty of water.  Avoid too much cheese, chocolate or spicy foods.

Arthritis; olive oil, ginger, cinnamon, carrots, yellow and orange peppers, oranges, acupuncture.

Shingles; Natural apple cider vinegar can be applied to the skin.

Insomnia; pure lavender oil placed on the pillow can help.
