Hepatitis B Anhilation
What is hepatitis B?Hepatitis B is the world's most common liver infection that can lead to cirrhosis and liver cancer later in life. It is caused by the hepatitis B virus (HBV), which molests and damages the liver. It is transmitted from an infected mother to her newborn baby during delivery. Most infected adults are able to get rid of the hepatitis B virus without any problems with homoeopathic treatment. However, many infected babies and children are unable to get rid of the virus and will develop chronic infections.
The good news is that there is a simple blood test for hepatitis B; a safe homeopathic medicine protects for a lifetime and homoeopathic medicine that benefits chronic hepatitis B patient who has active signs of liver disease.
Why is hepatitis B so dangerous?
Hepatitis B is hazardous since it is a "silent disease" that can infect population without them knowing it. Most people who are infected with hepatitis B are innocent of their infection and can innocently pass the virus to others through their blood. For those who become chronically infected, meaning the virus can stay in their liver for more than 6 months, there is an increased risk of developing serious liver disease later in life. The virus can quietly and continuously attack the liver over many years without being detected.
Hepatitis B and Liver Cancer
Liver cancer is a large health threat to Indians and can often be fatal since symptoms may not appear until it's too late. Among Indians, liver cancer is the 2nd leading type of cancer. Since 80% of all liver cancer in the India is caused by chronic HBV, it is crucially significant that all Indians be tested for hepatitis B and treated with Homeopathic system of medicine. Even in the early stages of liver cancer, a person may not experience any serious symptoms until it is too late for Homoeopathic treatments to be helpful.
Early diagnosis and early Homoeopathic treatment is essential in saving lives!
How can One get hepatitis B?
Hepatitis B is an transmittable disease caused by a virus that is spread through blood. It is not spread through casual contact. One cannot get hepatitis B from the air, hugging, touching, sneezing, coughing, toilet seats or doorknobs.
Listed below are the most common ways hepatitis B is passed to others:
Direct contact with blood or infected bodily fluids
Unprotected sex with an infected partner
Shared or re-used needles (for example, sharing needles for illegal drugs or re-using needles that are not properly sterilized for acupuncture, tattoos, or ear/body piercing)
From an infected mother to her newborn baby during delivery (this is the most common route of infection among Indians)
Who is most likely to become infected with hepatitis B?
Although hepatitis B can infect any person of any age or race, there are some people who are at higher risk for becoming infected. Your job, your lifestyle choices, or living in a household with an infected person or family member can increase your chances of being exposed to the hepatitis B virus.
Here are some of the "high risk" groups for acquiring hepatitis B infection, but please remember that this is not a complete list:Infants born to women who are infected with hepatitis B
People who live in close household contact with someone who has hepatitis B (this includes babies, children and adults)
People who have unprotected sex or have multiple sexual partners
Health care workers and others who are exposed to blood or infected bodily fluids
People who use illegal drugs
People who undergo kidney dialysis or have hemophilia
People who live in countries where hepatitis B is very common
People who travel to or from countries where hepatitis B is very common
What else can I do to protect myself from hepatitis B?
Since hepatitis B is spread through blood and infected bodily fluids, there are several simple things that you can do to protect yourself from possible infection:
Avoid sharing sharp objects such as razors, toothbrushes, earrings, and nail clippers
Make sure that sterile needles are used for acupuncture, tattoos, ear and body piercing
Avoid touching blood or infected bodily fluids directly
Wear gloves and use a fresh solution of bleach and water to clean up blood spills
Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water after touching or cleaning up blood
Use condoms with sexual partners
Avoid illegal drugs
Most importantly, make sure you receive the hepatitis B vaccine!
Will I become sick if I'm infected with hepatitis B?Hepatitis B is considered a "silent infection" because it often does not cause any symptoms. Most people feel healthy and do not know they have been infected, which means they can unknowingly pass the virus on to others. Other people may have mild symptoms such as fever, fatigue, joint or muscle pain, or loss of appetite that are mistaken for the flu. Less common but more serious symptoms include severe nausea and vomiting, yellow eyes and skin (this is called "jaundice"), and a swollen stomach - these symptoms require immediate medical attention and a person may need to be hospitalized.
Is there a blood test for hepatitis B?
There is a simple hepatitis B blood test that your doctor or health clinic can order. All you need to do is go to the doctor's office. Sometimes the doctor may ask to check your blood again six months after your first visit to confirm your test results.
Will I recover from a hepatitis B infection with homoeopathy?The answer depends on whether you are infected as an adult, a child, or a baby. Most infected adults will recover without any problems, but most infected babies and children will become chronic carriers of HBV.
Indians are most commonly infected as infants or in early childhood, which is why they have such a high risk of developing chronic hepatitis B infections.
Adults - Many will get rid of the virus and recover without any problems with Homeopathy; Few will become chronic carriers of HBV; and in rare cases, a person may become very sick and die from a hepatitis B infection.
Young Children - More than Half will get rid of the virus and recover without problems with Homeopathy; Less than Half will become chronic carriers of HBV.
Infants - Majority will definitely become chronic carriers of HBV; only minority have a chance of getting rid of the virus with Homeopathy.
Diabetes Melitus
In Diabetes Mellitus role of diet control (regulation) and Exercise is of utmost importance.
DIET:-
Eat to live only
Up to 75% restriction in sugar and sweets, Cold drinks, Ice cream, Chocolates, Oils/Ghee, Corn (Maize), Rice (Can only be used without starch), Potato, Sweet root, Banana, Mango, and other sweet fruits.
Better to eat Guava, Oranges (Green one), Salads, Chicken (Not Meat), Fish.
Total Calorie intake should be as per requirement, For Sedentary Peoples it should not exceed 2000 kcal per day.
Thus you have to restrict yourself of eating too much, restrict yourself to 4 chapaties per day.
Exercise:-
Work out as much as you can and as much as you eat.
Burn out maximum possible calories you have consumed.
10000 yards walking is essential per day (=10Km or more)
Viral Fever
Thus we can not rely upon antiviral medicines; instead we have to rely upon innate power, our own immune system to combat the killer viruses.
Also there is nothing to do with antibiotics in the treatment of viral diseases; use of antibiotics makes the viral disease worse and prolonged. Most of the viral diseases are self limiting by there own or with the appearance of secondary bacterial infection. In most cases of viral disease secondary infection with bacteria leads to get rid of viral infection. Thus when a person suffering with viral disease is treated with antibiotics it only disturbs microbial ecology and helps in making strongholds for virus in suffering person. In well organized higher life as in human beings, there is some innate power to fight against viruses. In the infinitely long past, from repeated invasion by microbes, life force of human beings had learned enough to combat with pathogenic micro-organisms.
Fever (rise in body temp) is the only faithful means to kick pathogenic viruses from human body. Fever helps the sufferer in following ways:-
(i) Cry for help:- signal the existence of virus in living being
(ii) Retards the multiplication of viruses
(iii) Acts as Blood Brain Barrier and thus protects the most vital organ from viral damage
(iv) Kills the viruses: - viruses being less organized living entities (as compared to highly organized human beings) are prone to be killed at slightly higher temperature.
(v) Activates immune system against infecting virus
(vi) Hastens the repair process of the tissue destruction done by virus
It is crucial that lots of tissue destruction take place during high fever but most important is the damage done by virus when allowed to proliferate copiously by suppressing fever with antipyretics.
Fever pain inflammation are not our enemies per see, they should not be combated but co-operated instead in order to fight virus the common enemy. One should endeavor of its best to help the ailing life force by increasing body temperature in case of low grade (mild to moderate) fever in order to compel the virus to quit the living being.

Modus Operandii of Homeopathic Medicines in case of Pyrexial Diseases
- The tiny dose of Homoeopathic Medicines to some extent move up the thermoregulatory set point located in Hypothalamus (part of Brain) of living being naturally required for the rise in body temperature in order to deactivate the microbes (Disease Forces).
- The effects of tiny dose of Homoeopathic Medicines simulates the Biologic Activities of Pyrogenic Cytokines like IL-1, TNFa, AND IL-6 and INFs. The potentised dose of similar Homeopathic Medicines (just like PGE2) is the most potent of the fever-producing means without inflicting any injurious effect to the sick living being when prescribed on symptom similarity and in infinitesimal low doses.
- The infinitesimal low doses believed to mediate the required rise in the thermoregulatory set point. With the new, higher "thermostatic setting, signals go to various efferent nerves, particularly those sympathetic fibers innervating the peripheral blood vessels, which in turn initiate vasoconstriction and promote heat conservation also initiating behavioral changes such as seeking a warm environment, putting on more clothes, and special posturing. With the shunting of blood from the periphery and these behavioral changes, the body temperature usually rises to some extent; if the hypothalamus calls for more heat, shivering (involuntary muscle contraction) is triggered to increase heat production. The combination of heat conservation and increased heat production continues until the temperature of the blood bathing the anterior hypothalamic neurons matches the new "setting." At that point, the hypothalamus maintains the new febrile temperature until majority of the microbes (disease force) are killed or inactivated.
- As Soon as the majority of the microbes (disease force) are killed or inactivated, the life force of sick individual recognizes the requirement for lowering the body temperature and the hypothalamic set point is reset downward by the disappearance of stimulating Homeopathic medicine (acting like Pyrogenic cytokines) and microbes (disease forces). Vasodilatation and sweating dissipate heat through radiation and conduction from the skin. Behavioral changes, such as the removal of insulating clothing or bedding, may be triggered.
- When the war is over the minute dose of homoeopathic medicines also triggers the production of endogenous antipyretic substances. These include arginine vasopressin, adrenocorticotropin, a-melanocyte-stimulating hormone, and corticotropin-releasing hormone, each of which appears to alter the ability of endogenous pyrogens to stimulate prostaglandin production.

Causes of Disease
Thus we can consider the various causes of sickness in following headings:
Fundamental Causes (Genetic predisposition)
Iatrogenic Causes (Un-natural Immune-suppressive Allopathic Treatment)
Precipitating Causes (Thermal, Telluric, Electric and Radio Injury)
Exciting Causes (Microbes and Pollutants etc.)
Maintaining Causes (Other Factors)
Secondary Causes (Un-natural Immune-suppressive Allopathic Treatment; Thermal, Telluric, Electric and Radio Injury)
Occasional Causes (Microbes, Pollutants etc. and Other Factors)
THERMAL INJURY: • Injury due to extremes of temperature: - Human beings are barely affected from exposure to constant high and low atmospheric temperature up to certain extremes (up to 40 °C on higher side and up to 10 °C on lower sides) and beyond these extremes thermal injuries such as frost bite, heat stroke and sunburn etc. ensue. Diseases thus caused simulate Acute Diseases. • Injury due to variation of temperature: - Temperature variation of >20°C within 24 Hrs of time space leads to immunological injuries to life force of genetically predisposed living beings in two ways: -
(i) Suppressing immune system helps microbes to access living beings.
(ii) Augmenting sensitivity of the living beings leads to allergic responses to substances in the surroundings of the living being which otherwise are not disease producing forces.

What Are the Advantages of Homeopathy?
Homeopathy offers several advantages:
- Can be quite effective: when the correct remedy is given, results can be rapid and complete.
- Completely safe: Even babies and pregnant women can use it without the danger of side effects.
- Natural: Remedies are usually based on natural ingredients.
- Harmony with your body: Remedies work in harmony with your immune system, unlike some conventional medicines, which suppress immunity.
- Not addictive: Once relief is achieved, you can stop taking the remedy.
If you get no relief, you are probably taking the incorrect homeopathic remedy. - Holistic: All of your symptoms are treated at once, which is another way of saying your whole body is being treated. The focus is on the cause of your disorders, not the suppression of individual symptoms.
Asthma is Curable in Homoeopathy - Needs no more Proof
It does not mean that Homoeopathic medicines in higher dilutions do not work in Asthma cases. Constitutional Homoeopathic medicine in higher potencies improves or modifies the susceptibility of Sick, Means it reduces the tendencies of a living being to be over effected by certain things which can hardly make any impression in other healthy living being.
For the development of Asthma and other sickness there must be more than one cause such as genetic tendencies, thermal telluric chemical biological injuries, environmental pollution, faulty unnatural living habits etc. Each of above factors needs special attention in Asthma and other diseases to attain total cure or maximum amelioration of symptoms.

Basic Principles of Homeopathy
Symptoms indicate healing: Symptoms represent the body’s effort to heal itself as described earlier. Therefore, symptoms are stimulated to complete the curative process.
Homeopathic remedies are based on "provings": Medicinal substances are given to healthy people in small doses to assess how the substances influence their physiology. These “provings” continue until the healing potential of the substance is revealed.
The totality of the symptoms is considered: Your complete symptom profile is taken into account, including mental, emotional, and physical aspects.
A single remedy is given: One homeopathic medicine is chosen most of the times to perfectly match the totality of your symptoms.
A minimum of doses is given: Only a small stimulus is needed to stimulate your innate healing powers.
The homeopathic remedies are micro-doses: Homeopathic medicines are processed (“potentised”) to minute dosages in which there may be no remaining physical trace of the original substance.
