Homeopathic remedy – what do you think?
I found a homeopathic remedy that claims to suppress a cat’s appetite. There are a lot of ingredients and I just am not up to researching all of them!
I know some believe that homeopathy is nonsense and doesn’t work. But not working isn’t the end of the world. What I’d like to know is, is there anything in here that can hurt?
The ingredients are: abies canadensis, ammonium bromatum, ammonium muriaticum, anacardium orientale, antimonium crudum, argentum metallicum, calcarea carbonica, capsicum annum, cinchona officinalis, ferrum metallicum, fucus vesiculosus, ignatia amara, kali bichromicum, lycopodium clavatum, mercurius solubilis, natrum sulphuricum, oleander, phosphorus, phytolacca decandra, sabadilla, staphysagria, sulphur, thyroidinum, veratrum album.
Who is making that garbage? Like 35 "homeopathic remedies all together! Every one of them would be possible for at least that many "conditions".
Why do you want to suppress your cat’s appetite?
It is entirely false to say that homeopathic remedies used this way (or even single ones) are 100% safe.
If you want to treat your cat homeopathically it is best to consult a qualified homeopathic veterinarian or a veterinary homeopath.

Homeopathic remedies are 100 percent safe. They can not harm your cat. The reason some remedies dont work all the time is because everyone is different in their dis-ease. Some people might have the same sickness but their bodies react differently thus they need different remedies. So someone that takes a certain remedy and it doesnt work doesnt mean homeopathy doesnt work. It also can matter how many succusions you give it or how often you dose some one or something. Dont over dose the cat it wont help because homeopathy does not work like drugs where the more you take the better you feel. Homeopathy is on a whole different page. I have seen miracles happen with homeopathy time after time. There have also been many scientific test on homeopathy. The big drug industries keep it quiet and try to put out propaganda saying it doesnt work because they dont make money on healthy self healing people. They make money off of sick people who have no clue how to heal them selves.

Homeopathic pills are 100% safe. The reason is because they consist of a sugar pill which has had a drop of purified water or alcohol which has then evaporated…so basically, they are sugar pills. Unless your cat is diabetic…it should be fine.
"not working isn’t the end of the world" ? Ok…but then why waste your money…doing nothing at all "won’t work" just as …uhm…well.
All of the "ingredients" in the homeopathic pill don’t actually exist in the drop of water. You don’t mention the "strength" of the pill…typicall a number with an X (for 10 times dilution) or C (for 100 times dilution)
Because they dilute it so much…none of the original ingredient actually remains. Some of the STRONGEST homeopathic solutions…like a 6X…are still 1 part per TRILLION (although with their backwards thinking, they would claim it wasn’t as potent as an even more dilute solution)
Homeopathy is nonsense. It doesn’t work. There is no rational reason why it should work. The philosophies behind it have never been proven, and violate the laws of chemistry and physics.

Homeopathic remedies are safe. They are often diluted beyond Avagadro’s number so there usually is no trace of the physical constituents.
As far as the efficacy of the remedy… I believe that the intention behind the act is more powerful than what or how much of the ingredients are present.
