Most of us know risks for foodborne illness exist. A report on Mother Jones states says every time you eat, you are rolling the germ dice.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 1 in 6 Americans contracts a foodborne illness annually; 128,000 are hospitalized, and 3,000 die. Pathogens from meat kill more people than those from any other food group. A CDC study found that between 1998 and 2008, contaminated meat was responsible for 29 percent of all deaths from foodborne illness (23 percent of deaths were from produce, 15 percent from dairy and eggs, and 6.4 percent from fish and shellfish).
The good news is homeopathy has been shown to treat the symptoms of foodborne illness quickly and effectively, with very little (or no) risk! The following information comes from Homeopathyworld.com:
1. Arsenicum 30c
No. 1 homeopathic medicine for food poisoning, especially after meat, when there is vomiting and diarrhea.
Those who need Arsenicum feel physically very weak, but they are so anxious they can’t help but be restless. They are nervous at the thought of being left alone and when feeling at their worst actually feel they are going to die.
Symptoms are often most severe from midnight – 3am.2. Pulsatilla 30c
Is helpful after eating bad fish. It’s also good for upsets brought on by too much ice cream.3. Lycopodium 30c
Is better suited to poisoning from shellfish.4. China 30c
No. 1 homeopathic medicine to promote recovery after dehydration. Often even after diarrhea and vomiting has stopped a terrible feeling of weakness remains, due to the effects of dehydration. China can be extremely helpful in these circumstances. Remember to replenish lost fluids, too.5. Nux vomica 30c
For those times when the food and wine were great, but you just had way too much of one or other or both! This is a fantastic hangover cure, especially suited to those who are literally like bears with sore heads the morning after. If it works well for you, don’t let that be an excuse to go out and abuse your poor body all over again … in the end you will have to pay for it!
This week, educate yourself about the benefits of homeopathy, and especially related to foodborne illness. As many of you know, I have long advocated for each household to keep a homeopathic first aid kit. Homeopathic remedies are readily available at your health food store, and most cost less than ten dollars!
