An allergy, also called hypersensitivity, is a reaction to something by our immune system that protects the body from infections, diseases and foreign substances. An allergen is any substance that the body perceives as a threat, triggering a specific chain of events called an allergic cascade.
Substances that often case reaction are pollen, dust mites, birds, animals, certain food items and insect stings. The reaction may cause symptoms such as sneezing, coughing, runny nose, sore throat, vomiting, itching, swelling and asthma. Symptoms vary from patient to patient. Although allergies imitate you, they usually won't kill you. However a sever reaction called anaphylaxis, no doubt threats life.
Doctors all over the world now follow the homeopathic principle for treatment of allergies. The process known as vaccination involves receiving injections of small amount of allergens such as pollen for instance, that are considered to be responsible for your allergy.
Thus an artificial disease similar to the natural disease is intentionally given to the patient and the doses are gradually increased so that the body builds up immunity to the allergens. The injections of vaccines are given over at least 3 to 5 years. Discontinuation is based on having minimal symptoms over two consecutive seasons of exposure to the allergies. The immunologists and the allergists are of the view that this method of treatment is more effective than the controversial treatment, which only suppresses the acute systems of allergies.
Immunology and homeopathy began in 1796. Edward Jenner the father of modern Immunology gave his first small pox vaccination at the same time and German physician Samuel Heinemann discovered homeopathy. A vaccine is biological preparation that improves immunity to a particular disease. It typically contains a small amount of an agent that resembles a microorganism.
The agent stimulates the body's immune system to recognize the invading agent as foreign, destroy it and remember if so that the immune system can easily recognize and destroy any of these microorganisms that it encounters in future. The symptoms associated with an immune system response are often uncomfortable to the individual but actually quit necessary. Symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, fever, coughing, itching, nausea, diarrhea, or shortness of breath all produced as the immune system tries to fight foreign invaders.
Hahnemann introduced homeopathy in 1796 in these words: One imitates nature, which sometimes cures chronic diseases by adding other disease and then uses a drug that's capable of exciting artificial disease as similar as possible to the natural disease to be cured: like cures like this principle states that a disease can be cured by a substance that produces similar symptoms in healthy people.
Hahnemann unlike his contemporary Jenner did not limit the scope of this great discovery to the preparation of certain vaccines only. He went further and started experimenting vaccines on himself. He would select a diluted vaccine and take its repeated dose and then record the symptoms. Slowly and gradually his family friends and students also joined him in these experiments. Through great sacrifices the hidden properties of the diluted medicinal substances were discovered and recovered. Then these records ere used in clinics to match the sign and symptoms of patients with the recorded properties of a diluted vaccine and miraculous results were achieved. Thus a fully mature homeopathic system of medicine was developed by its great German discoverer Dr. Hahnemann. Now the homeopathic material medic has a record of carefully documented properties of more than seven thousand medicinal substances.
Homeopathy does not treat allergy by blindly giving one vaccine made from allergens which, apparently caused an allergy to all the patients suffering from that allergy. It rather carefully individualizes the symptoms of each and every patient and selects the most appropriate and suitable vaccine for the patient. In homeopathy ten different patients suffering from allergy caused by same allergen may receive ten different medicines if their individual symptoms are different.
Homeopathy during the last two centuries treated millions of people suffering from all sorts of allergies without any side effects. The author himself is a witness to its efficacy and has treated by the grace of ALLAH, many stubborn cases of allergies and asthma without any side effects.
