And so it is Christmas

The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year

Christmas was always a wonderful time for me. As a child I couldn't wait to see my presents and I did really believe that the holy child was bringing them. On Christmas Eve we would wander off to church and I would sing the last carol with all my heart, always promising to be a better person the next minute, or the new year because there was always fighting with my sisters on the long way home.

I can remember one Christmas when my aunt got me 3, yes THREE marzipan loaves covered with dark chocolate. I had them all in one go. I don't need to tell you that I did not feel particularly well after that. So if you do the same silly thing and have too much of your favourite sweets there is Homoeopathy to help. I didn't have that, unfortunately, when I was a child.

So my number one Homoeopathic remedy for overindulgence (including alcohol as well) is Nux-vomica. If you have a strong desire for sweets but feels worse after eating sweets, Argentum-nitricum might be the right remedy.

 For ailments after fat Carbo-vegetabilis and Arsenicum-album are good remedies. Arsenicum-album is also a very good remedy in food poisoning.

There are limits to self treatment, please be aware of that. So if your symptoms persist please see a health professional. If you need my help, please contact me on 07813 195468. 

I'm wishing you a very happy Christmas and maybe you should have a bit more of this:
