Homeopathy is an approach to health that is quite different from methods that are seen in the pharmacy everyday. Conventional medicine attempts to restore health by killing invading organisms, replacing hormones or enzymes, or interfering with disease processes.
Calcium blockers are an example.
Home- opathy stimulates the body's own defenses to correct illness and allow symptoms to dissipate. The minute dose of drug substance used in homeopathy does not cause any of the side effects that have become such a problem for the physician, pharmacist and patient. Homeopathic medicines are different from herbal products. In addition to conventional drugs, homeopathic drug products are the only other form of official and regulated medicine in the United States. Homeopathic medicines are now receiving a much higher level of consumer interest.
