American Medical Revolutions

Written by Jack Phillips, Orthomolecular News Service

IN BRIEF

Have you ever wondered how we ended up with the modern medical system? Because orthodox physicians were committing suicide as a result of losing business when homeopathy started to flourish. A plot was hatched...

Article Reprinted with permission from GreenMedInfo. Sub-headings and summary by Anke Zimmermann, BSc, FCAH

About 170 years ago our ancestors forced the repeal of licensing laws which had created a monopoly over the practice of medicine for orthodox physicians. Ordinary people, farmers, artisans, tradesmen and others got together and forced politicians to act on their behalf. They were tired of bloodletting, and harsh medications like mercury compounds that ruined their teeth and weakened their bodies.

​They opted for kinder and gentler alternatives with lower casualty rates, particularly the newly introduced homeopathy. They were impressed that tiny doses of medicine were able to cure cholera much better than the massive doses used by orthodox physicians.

Help! I'm Being Turned Into A Quack

3/22/2017

IN BRIEF:

Anke learns about homeopathy and almost drops out of naturopathic college as a result, fearing she was going to be turned into a quack. But then a sudden illness strikes and, well, the result is history!

The Unbelievability of Homeopathy

I totally understand people who are skeptical of homeopathy - because I used to be one of them.  Homeopathic remedies are made by a long process of sequential dilution and agitation and in any remedies higher than a 12 CH there are actually no molecules of the original substance left. I could not get my head around that at the beginning and science has yet to discover an agreed-upon mechanism to understand how homeopathic remedies work in the body. This is the entertaining story of how I was converted from skeptic to professional homeopath 28 years ago. 

October 1989

I woke up at 2 am with a golf ball stuck down my throat - and this one was on fire! Wait – that couldn’t be right – I wasn't even a golfer. Was I dreaming? Better check in the mirror – open wide!

Six Tips for Giving Supplements to Your Child

2/1/2017

0 Comments

 
Picture
Giving supplements to children can be difficult but can also be very important for their health.

Be serious about giving the supplements, do not make it optional. Consider them life-saving, or at least brain-saving medications, which they very well may be. You child will learn that they are important. 
By Anke Zimmermann, BSc, FCAH
 1) Always reward your child for taking them. You can use affection and praise, a                  small food item or a favorite activity, including TV or computer time or have them        collect stars or stickers that add up to a special treat or toy.

Tuberculinum is one of our main constitutional homeopathic remedies for children, especially those with weak constitutions who suffer from frequent infections and allergies, as well as children with a wide range of developmental and behavioural disorders. 


"A proportion of these children may be born with mental handicaps from mild learning difficulties to severe mental retardation and some of these children show many symptoms of chromosomal disorders, yet genetic testing will come back to be normal." [1]

Of Happyness and Heart Attacks

Anger and hostility is associated with increased risk of heart attacks.
IN BRIEF

Everyone knows that too much cholesterol and high blood pressure can kill you. Well, here's something you probably didn't know: loneliness, anger, and hostility can kill you too. Especially if you're a man.




By Anke Zimmermann, BSc, FCAH
A recent study investigating the association between anger and hostility and coronary heart disease was published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology. The study found that anger and hostility were associated with increased cardiovascular problems in healthy people. People who already had heart disease and were experiencing anger and hostility had increasingly poor prognoses.
​

And here's the kicker: the harmful effects of anger and hostility were greater in men than women.

Natural Approaches to Bed-Wetting

Homeopathy can be helpful for bedwetting, especially the remedy tuberculinum

By Anke Zimmermann, BSc, FCAH
Bedwetting - also known as enuresis - is a common condition affecting more than 500,000 Canadian children age five and over. It can be an embarrassing and difficult problem for a child. Homeopathy and diet changes may help!

Over the years I have seen dozens of children with enuresis successfully helped with homeopathy and occasionally through diet changes. 

Many years ago I saw a 9-year-old boy with chronic bedwetting. Throughout the visit he sat alone in front of my examination table, did not interact at all and did not play with any toys. He looked exhausted and had large shiners under his eyes. The parents reported that he loved milk and drank several glasses a day.

Homeopathy and Epigenetics

12/31/2016

The science of epigenetics is offering an exciting, new explanation for the homeopathic theory of miasms. Homeopathy in Victoria, BC, Anke Zimmermann, ND

Miasms

​Nearly 200 years ago, the founder of Homeopathy, Dr. Samuel Hahnemann realized that effects of certain diseases like Scabies, Gonorrhea, Tuberculosis and Syphilis could be present even after the acute infection was treated.
​
He also noticed that these effects could be passed on to future generations without the actual infection being acquired.  
This trans-generational effect manifested in the form of disease predispositions, which he called 'miasms'. Effects in the same generation were called ‘acquired miasms’ and effects that were present in future generations were called an ‘inherited miasm’.
​

The idea of miasms has remained one of the most controversial propositions of Hahnemann, however, a new branch in genetics is throwing light on a possible mechanism to explain this theory.
