Desires for Food and Drinks their use in Homeopathic Remedy Selection
Desires for Food and Drinks their utility in Homeopathic Remedy Selection given by BOUKO LEVY M.in his Homeopathic and Drainage Repertory
Desire for Particular food and drink indicates the specific Homeopathic Remedy for a Constitution.
A desire is a drive, or an unconscious strength that pushes an individual to satisfy an essential need.This behavior is typically characteristic of a remedy and sometimes is very striking if it appears or disappears suddenly during an acute disease.
Much more than a local symptom, a desire represents a general and mental symptom.
The systematic research of the marked desires of the patient is always an essential step for a correct diagnosis of the remedy.
This repertory gives only some of the most frequent and strong desires.
They must always be included in the general picture of the remedy and the potency indicated needs to be adapted to each individual case.
