There is nothing more frustrating than being stuck in a downward spiral of illness. The one big, more disconcerting, problem is recurring infections caused by antibiotic use, or overuse. Is there a way out? Yes, of course — homeopathy.
Well, you or a loved one probably know the types of problems all too well, also unfortunately — ear infections that come back to plague kids like clockwork every month, repetitive bouts of strep throat, or sinus infections that come back every year
[sometimes several times a year]. Are these just a normal part of life? Why are some of us prone to such persistent trials? It turns out that antibiotics may be the root cause of the problem.
Believe it or not, antibiotic use sets us up for recurrent infections. According to the Guardian newspaper, UK, “Antibiotics leave children ‘more likely to contract drug resistant infections.’ Public health officials warn children’s risk of drug-resistant infections 12 times higher in months following a course of antibiotics.”
And, it’s not only recurrent bacterial infections that we have to worry about. Antibiotics also set us up for fungal over growths, leading to recurring fungal infections.
Here’s an all-too-common scenario of how antibiotic use and recurrent infections wreak havoc with our future health.
Let me introduce you to a toddler named Joey.
JOEY’S CASE
Joey had his first ear infection. His bright red face and obvious pain put his mother into a panic mode, and although she didn’t want to, she felt she needed to get to the doctor to get a course of antibiotics for him.
The antibiotics worked great and cleared up the infection. But, a month later, Joey got another ear infection — even worse than the first. Another course of antibiotics followed. And, then, another ear infection.
Soon, Joey became one of those kids “who are just prone to ear infections.” The doctor has tried writing scripts for stronger and stronger antibiotics, but is now recommending having tubes put into Joey’s ears!

Homeopathic Practice & The Power Of Objective Assessment
The best thing for homeopathic students and also doctors to do is to go back to the essence, or ‘source,’ of Dr Samuel Hahnemann’s tenets, and use the power of objective observation to revolutionise their homeopathic skills and practice of medicine, in the best manner possible — simply, sensibly, and without rigmarole.
Multiple Sclerosis & Homeopathy
Homeopathy does not treat just multiple sclerosis symptoms per se, but rather the person having such symptoms with all their nuanced temperamental aspects, likes and dislikes, aside from complex personal and family history. This purports to deftly taking the full case and understanding the totality of symptoms in the context of the patient’s overall experience of life, and finding specific homeopathic remedies for the disorder.
