Protocols: Anti-Anxiety Homeopathic Remedy

Description: Homeopathic (Greek for "like the disease") preparation based on principle of "like cures like". Homeopathy is the dominant medical science in many parts of the world as well as in the U.S. prior to the 1900s. Homeopathic remedies are derived from plants, minerals or animals and prepared as highly dilute solutions. Only a molecule of the original substance may remain after this process. Double-blind research studies are providing research validation for homeopathy.

Method of Action: Active ingredients are Cicuta virosa 4X, Gaultheria 4X, Ignatia 4X, Staphysagria 4X, Asa foetida 3X, Corydalis formosa 3X, Hyoscyamus 3X, Sumbul 3X, Valerina officinalis 3X, Avena sativa 1X. The method of action for homeopathic preparations is currently unknown. Theories of cellular memory have emerged from the "quantum" approach to physics. One unblinded study comparing effectiveness of Anti-Anxiety and diazepam reported the two preparations were approximately equal in their clinical effectiveness.
