 Alliance of Registered Homeopaths Press Release 22nd February 2009 For Immediate Release
NUT ALLERGY BREAKTHROUGH – IT’S HOMEOPATHY! The Alliance of Registered Homeopaths welcomes the announcement by doctors at Addenbrooks Hospital of new a medical breakthrough in the treatment Peanut Allergy.
Steve Scrutton, Registrar of ARH, says of the breakthrough. "At last, medical science has chanced upon a real breakthrough! What they are doing in these trials is treating nut allergy by homeopathy – that is, they are “treating like with like”.
The ‘desensitisation’ programme being developed at Addenbrooke's Hospital involved 22 children between the aged 7 and 17 being given tiny 5mg doses of peanut flour, gradually increasing the daily dose over 6 months to 800mgs a day, which is equivalent to five peanuts.
Kim Mackrell, MARH, a London Homeopath, says that local honey has been known to give relief to hayfever sufferers throughout the centuries, even before homeopathy began, and she says that she has used it to good effect with her patients. She added, “In a nearby allotment, residents are starting to keep bees, to provide local produce for the benefit of hayfever sufferers in mind”.
The ARH believes that medical science is not just beginning to discover that homeopathy works, but that conventional medicine is now starting to understand the benefits of homeopathic methodology, which has been used, effectively and safely for over 200 years. The ARH welcomes the fact that homeopathy is now being utilised in conventional treatment programmes.
