Lose weight through conventional methods - diet and sports - a force of only the most strong-willed and stubborn. The others are looking for alternative methods that will get rid of the extra kilos effortlessly. Homeopathy for weight loss - one of those ways. Is it possible to lose weight with the help of homeopathic remedies, and how such funds are safe?
Homeopathy: Pros and Cons
Even those who have a very vague idea of homeopathy know that the basic principle of this method consists in treating like with like. That is to combat disease applied the same substance that caused the disease - only in trace concentrations, multiply divorced.
Doctors are skeptical about homeopathy: from the perspective of conventional medicine, homeopathic methods - no more than a fraud and a charlatan. The results of many studies are disappointing: the effect of homeopathic medicines do not exceed the placebo effect. In this regard, the World Health Organization has not recommended to apply to homeopathy for the treatment of serious diseases, so as not to lose precious time. In Soviet times, homeopathy was generally prohibited, which, however, has not affected its popularity: homeopaths were receiving "illegally."
Generally, originated in the XVIII century homeopathy has many fans around the world. Cured patients claim that it is homeopathic remedies put them on their feet, and while traditional medicine was powerless. If traditional methods are useless, then why not try to appeal to non-traditional methods?
Advantages and disadvantages
Currently, homeopathic remedies can be bought at any pharmacy, though many homeopaths prefer to cook their own drugs. The basis of the finished tools are usually water, ethanol or sugar. The active ingredients are contained in very small amounts, so that homeopathic remedies are considered harmless, suitable even for children or pregnant women. Furthermore, homeopathic remedies may be combined with any other treatment, including written out with drugs or medical diets.
Lack of homeopathic remedies have, in fact, one: unproven effectiveness. Neither homeopath can not guarantee that the result of taking drops or sugar balls drop weight and obesity problem is resolved. In some cases, the effect is there, and it is believed that the greater the patient believes in homeopathic remedies, the more effective treatment will be.
Interestingly, the effect of placebo

It is possible even if the patient is informed about the ineffectiveness of the drug, but in my heart continues to believe that this tool will help him.
The choice of means
Despite the fact that obesity is a disease drug for its treatment in the official medicine, there are very few. But existing tools have so many side effects and contraindications, that their application is justified only in rare cases. Homeopathic remedies for the treatment of obesity is not very much, but they are at least safe. Their operating principle is different:
- Calcarea carbonica is used for appetite control;
- Argentum nitricum helps reduce cravings for sweets;
- Graphites is used to treat abdominal distention and to improve digestion;
- Ignatia - a substance effective in the fight against these common causes of overeating as stress and anxiety

;
- Antimonium crudum used to combat irritability

and strengthen the nervous system.
Thus, homeopathic remedies do not have the so-called "fat-burning" properties. They do not affect the process of getting rid of excess fat in and of themselves are unlikely to lead to the loss of extra kilos. At the same time homeopathic remedies will be a great addition to the standard measures to combat obesity - diet and physical activity.
All dieters know from personal experience that the restrictions in the diet not only help get rid of excess fat, but also adversely affect the character. Irritability, tearfulness, aggression - quite common among those who decided to lose weight. Sedatives, including homeopathic, allow to stand the test of honor restrictions.
On the other hand, homeopathic remedies, reduces appetite, relieve stress and allow

and better tolerate the diet restrictions in the period of adaptation to the diet. It is only necessary to consider that the drugs will be effective only if the craving for sugars is physiological rather than psychological causes.
Secrets efficiency
It would be naive to believe that homeopathic remedies can help to lose weight if you do not change your lifestyle, overeating and neglected sports activities.
If obesity is caused by a disease (eg, endocrine), it is necessary, first of all, treatment of the underlying disease, otherwise no homeopathic medicines are not effective.
If the cause of weight gain has become banal overeating, then the situation can be corrected if to approach the issue comprehensively. That is not limited to only one or grains of sugar drops, and at the same time not forget about your diet and reasonable load.
The best results can be achieved if choose homeopathic remedies for weight loss alone. Doing this should, of course, a qualified homeopath that can comprehensively assess the physical health of the patient's psycho-emotional state, personality traits. No universal recipes: those who are gaining weight because of their own feelings of weakness, to help preparations based on softwood, and those who suffer from depression, help stimulants that have, among other things, and anorexigenic (appetite-reducing) effects.
