This is the ninth episode in a series highlighting homeopathic remedies I carry with me all the time. There are almost 50, so it will take a while to complete, especially since I interrupt the series all the time to tell amazing stories about how homeopathy helps heal people and pets!

The Academy of Practical Homeopathy taught me that a dose of Camphor (also called Camphora) 200c is our method for opening cases of chronic disease and clearing the slate for our homeopathic remedies to act as fully as possible. Camphor can stop the action of a drug or remedy that is causing negative effects on a person, so it’s incredibly useful as a clearing remedy when we’re going to start a new remedy schedule. With that kind of talent, it’s obviously also of benefit when someone has taken something they shouldn’t (more on that below).

Homeopathic Camphor is made from the leaves and bark of the Camphor tree, distilled and succussed multiple times, the way all homeopathic medicines are made. You can find it in various potencies, but Practical Homeopaths generally use it in 200c.

Historically, Camphor has been extremely useful to homeopaths, all the way back to Samuel Hahnemann, who discovered homeopathy in the first place. Because it is so great at helping to balance conditions that cause extreme chilliness, it is a fantastic remedy for cholera and was indispensable during the epidemics of the 19th Century. If you’ve got a fever with chills, Camphor is a remedy to strongly consider.

Camphor is most famous among homeopaths as the Universal Antidote. Truly, a dose of Camphor will stop most negative reactions to herbal medicines and ill-chosen homeopathic remedies. In case you didn’t know, taking the wrong homeopathic remedy in too high a potency, too many times, or for too long a period, can cause a negative response called a “proving.” Camphor will nip that reaction in the bud and give you a chance to start afresh. Camphor is even used to stop the negative actions of conventional medications (think, adverse reactions and side effects), which is why we use it especially in cases where the person has been on multiple conventional medications and is experiencing a spectrum of side effects.

In the case of illegal drugs, Camphor can be an important remedy to consider. We have others, depending on the drug that was used/overused, but Camphor is a solid choice to help clear the current effects of a substance.
