What is the Law of Similars? Part 2

The Law of Similars states that a medicine that produces the most similar symptoms to the disease has the highest chance of healing the illness. This may sound strange to you because most of us are used to the opposite idea: treatment by contraries. We are familiar with this because treatment by contraries is how modern pharmaceuticals work.

Drugs have an action on the body that suppresses the body’s ability to create a symptom, thus acting contrary to the disease state. If you are familiar at all with conventional medicine, then you are familiar with the shortcomings of treatment by contraries. If you are tired of dealing with these shortcomings then perhaps it is time to try the better way: Homoeopathy, which is literally the opposite of the contrary treatments of conventional medicine.
