I rolled my eyes at homeopathy the first time I heard about it in med school. Tiny sugar pellets? Now it's the first natural medicine I hand every Doctor Mom, and this video shows you why.
In this Homeopathy 101 episode, Dr. Elana explains the one rule homeopathy runs on: like cures like. You'll see how an onion becomes the remedy Allium cepa, and why homeopathy is its own branch of natural medicine instead of a supplement, herbal tincture, or vitamin. Dr. Elana shares why homeopathy for kids is her number one starting point for your natural medicine toolkit, and why four kids with four different coughs may need four different remedies. She wraps up with the questions moms ask most: what age to start, using it while pregnant or nursing, how to give homeopathic pellets, how long to try a remedy before switching, and whether you can mix remedies.
