herbal medicines -   schwabe,  Scientists from King's College London have claimed that many herbal medicines used for a wide range of conditions including slimming, asthma and arthritis are derived from a botanical compound containing aristolochic acids. The scientists reviewed worldwide cases of aristolochic acid nephropathy (AAN), a type of kidney failure caused by the intake of these acids. They suggest there may be many thousands of cases across Asia that are undiagnosed or misdiagnosed. With the outcome of their study, the researchers hope to raise awareness of the risks of aristolochic acids and reduce the global disease burden from this severe condition. "We do know that preparations containing aristolochic acid (AA) are widely used in India and that this is associated with chronic kidney disease and kidney cancer if a sufficient dose is taken," lead author Professor Graham Lord was quoted as saying.   A quick literature search has found that drugs like Ari...

- BENERJEE.P, The Chronic Miasm - Syphilis  We have seen how the chronic miasms-Psora and Sycosis manifest themselves in their respective characteristic ways, and let us now see how Syphilis is manifested. It is only when we have thoroughly grasped the characteristic images of these miasms, that we can expect to be in a position to undertake miasmatic treatment of cases.  The chief manifestations of Syphilis are-malignant abscesses and boils, buboes, fetid sweat and a thick flabby tongue with a white coating and imprints of teeth round the margin. The breath is fetid like the sweat, and the sweat instead of relieving the troubles of the Syphilitic, only aggravate them. There are severe pains in the bones, and they are the severest at night, in the heat of the bed. Syphilitic troubles, whatever those troubles may be, are always worse at night, worse from the heat of the bed. These are some of the leading indications of the existence of Syphilis. Let us re-capitulat...

- BENERJEE.P, Internal Disorder The three chronic miasms Psora, Sycosis and Syphilis, the prime causes of all the varied ills of mankind, by themselves give rise to hundreds of serious diseases curable and incurable. This has been stated more than once, and this is known to all true Homœopaths. It is also known to all of them that, of these miasms, Psora alone can exist in a particular system independently by itself, i. e., without the other two being there. But the other two-Sycosis and Syphilis, can never exist in any system without Psora being there. If, therefore, Sycosis and Syphilis-either any one or both of them, are found in any System, it must necessarily be understood that there is Psora also. Because, without Psora being there, there can be no ingress of any of the other two miasms. This is science, and it has been established by careful observations by Samuel Hahnemann, the father of the true healing Art and by his worthy followers. The reason why the other miasm...
