How Homoeopathic Medicines Work 🌿

Homoeopathic medicines act through the sentient faculty of the nerves, gently stimulating the vital force to restore balance and healing.

Action of Coffee & Camphor ⚠️

Strong coffee and camphor also act on the same sentient faculty of nerves, but in a strong and crude manner.

Because of this:

  • They overstimulate the nervous system
  • They interfere with or cancel the action of homoeopathic medicines
  • They may suddenly stop improvement or delay cure

Camphor

  • Powerful antidote to many homoeopathic remedies
  • Acts rapidly on the nervous system
  • Even external use (balms, inhalers, oils) can interfere

Strong Coffee

  • Causes artificial stimulation of nerves
  • Leads to restlessness, anxiety, disturbed sleep
  • Weakens the gentle action of homoeopathic medicines

Homoeopathic Principle 🌱

When two substances act on the same sentient faculty, the stronger stimulus suppresses the gentler one.

Simple Advice for Patients

To allow homoeopathic medicines to work effectively, avoid strong coffee and camphor during treatment.
