Oh The Relief With Homeopathic Cold Remedies

By Jason Graham


Getting a cold is a bummer. Most people have to soldier on even with sniffles, coughs, sinus congestion, and fatigue. Finding a safe way to alleviate these symptoms may seem impossible, but homeopathic cold remedies offer just that. They are effective, fast-acting, and have none of the side effects that come with pharmaceutical over-the-counter products.

Homeopathy is a traditional branch of medicine, created in the late 1800s and used widely before the discovery of penicillin. It is still regulated by the FDA in the United States. This treatment protocol follows the philosophy of 'like cures like'. A great example is the use of the onion - allium - to treat the sniffles and watering eyes that often accompany a cold. As most of us know, cutting up an onion causes these symptoms; a minute amount of the vegetable relieves them.

Another key to the efficacy of the remedies, as the preparations are called, is that the amount of active ingredient in each one is truly minute. In fact, the amount of an herb, a mineral, or any other substance in a tablet might not be observable under a microscope. This leads many to deny any benefit to this kind of therapy. Millions around the world beg to differ, however, including members of royalty, doctors and chiropractors, and athletes.

Finally, the practitioners and manufacturers of homeopathic remedies truly follow the principle of 'do no harm' while treating a patient. The remedies in an over-the-counter potency are safe for everyone to use. They are even effective for animals, which refutes the 'placebo effect' criticism of many scoffers.

A remedy in the 'tissue salt' category that helps with colds and flu is Ferr Phos. This is a tablet made of milk sugar with a tiny amount of iron and phosphorus (two minerals found in human tissue, as the name indicates). It is considered a nutritive remedy, being good for general robustness. It also helps keep a fever within bounds and is considered by many parents as both more effective and safer than something like children's ibuprofen. A tissue salt comes in a low dilution, termed 6X.

Another tissue salt that helps with cold symptoms is Nat Mur. This remedy incorporates minerals known to regulate moisture within the body, so it helps with runny nose and congestion. Kali Phos is great for coughs and can even help keep croup from developing, according to testimonials from parents who give it at the first distinctive, hoarse cough.

Consumers have made some homeopathic cold formulas so popular that conventional pharmacies and grocery stores carry them. If you look, you will find homeopathy on the shelves under names you might even recognize. It comes in liquid formulas, tablets (called pellets in the industry), and lozenges.

Treating colds with homeopathy is safe and effective. Those who wish to avoid chemical formulas have a wide choice of products for unpleasant symptom relief. Go online to find more information on this kind of medicine and to see customer reviews of products on the market. It's nice to have some safe alternatives in your arsenal to fight winter's ills.
