Ginger and Cancer

A study conducted by the University of Rochester in New York has found that people who started taking ginger a few days before their chemotherapy had fewer and less severe bouts of nausea. The role of ginger as a medicine has been known traditionally amongst all the cultures and societies.It has been used by mothers and grandmothers all over the world for gastric problems and as a digestive.
Homeopathy has used ginger for the past hundred years or so.
As a homeopath, I would use it in potentized form for the vomiting of old drunkards and for diarrhoea from drinking bad or impure water. It is also known to cure colic and diarrhoea caused by eating melons, particularly cantaloupes.
It has been suggested in the past that ginger is not the right food to be given to persons with kidney disorders. In homeopathy, it is used to treat patients who have had a comlete cessation of the function of the kidneys. (This is an example of the underlying law of nature- let likes be cured by likes).
In asthma, the patient who requires Ginger as a homeopathic medicine may have a severe attack and must sit up in the bed to breathe, but is surprisingly free from any anxiety about the disease. Such peculiarities and deviations from the expected are picked up by the homeopath to make his prescriptions.
Note: A detailed history followed by constitutional treatment by a good and qualified homoeopath is necessary to treat the complaints that appear during any disease. It is not advisable to resort to self-medication for any disease. The above drug is mentioned solely to create awareness about the efficacy of homeopathic medicines.

Let it not be said that homeopathy testing is not
overt, honest, stringently conducted and results
available for all to see. There can be little
doubt amongst fair-minded people that there is
a huge amount of proof as to it’s efficacy regarding
burns, bruises, cancer, HIV, gastritis, heart disease,
ulcers etc etc the list goes on and on. It is
lovely to see this wonderful therapy shown in its true
light at last
