Cigarette smoke … cough, cough! Carbon monoxide … gag! Paint fumes … faint! Drugs … ugh!
The poisonous toxins in our world make you want to ditch modern society and move to an island in the Pacific. It’s a scary world out there.
Or is it?
Well, it is unless you know the antidotes to address a reaction to such contaminants. Then, they just don’t seem as hostile.
It is so empowering to have the ability to restore someone you love from a sickness caused by a toxic poison.
That’s certainly not news. You can follow my path to my current mindset about toxins in Podcast 70 — Rethinking Detox.
Even though toxins are the media’s trendy health topic du jour, they can be as much a part of nature as they can be a result of manmade materials. Let’s face it: Toxins are all around us! (Hence, the title of one of my previous blog posts, “I’m Toxic. You’re Toxic. We’re All Freakin’ Toxic!!”)
In fact, you could even say that I love toxic substances when they’re so diluted they become our homeopathic medicines.
Over the next few months, I will offer you a blog series on specific homeopathic medicines that have been shown to antidote toxic poisons' unpleasant — sometimes even life-threatening — effects.
In today’s introduction to that series, let me first give you a little background. So, bookmark this blog post; I’ll refer to it often in upcoming posts.
Can such potent toxins actually be antidoted so readily, permanently and
without side effects? Yes. In fact, up until the late 1940s, there were over 100 homeopathic
hospitals in the United States, and these were precisely the kinds of solutions physicians employed.
Their emergency rooms were stocked with hundreds of homeopathic remedies at the ready in the event of poisoning.
The reason these smart little pills are no longer found in hospitals or most any modern medical settings in the U.S.) is because there was a nasty divide between conventional (allopathic) and homeopathic medicine.
You can probably guess why. Yes, the burgeoning pharmaceutical industry booted homeopathy out of its place of prominence in medicine. A very organized, well-funded and diabolical campaign was undertaken to rid the U.S. of homeopathic physicians, hospitals, clinics and pharmacies.
All for market share.
So, today, we are left with the fallout of that strategic battle to form a monopoly. Now, we’re left to fend for ourselves to learn what the homeopathic physicians, nurses and many everyday folks of the last century knew.
No matter. We’re fully able to take it from here by learning as much as we can to protect our families.
Before we proceed in examining some of the most important remedies to have on hand in case of toxic poisoning, allow me to make one point clear:
With any severe poisoning, one should immediately get underway to a hospital.
However, this doesn’t mean one can’t accomplish a great deal in the car on the way. In fact, a number of my students have reported turning around a condition after administering the correct remedy a few times while in the hospital's parking lot. They never even needed to step in!
However, in cases where, perhaps, the wrong medicine is chosen or the homeopathic doesn’t act quickly enough, the sufferer is conveniently located right outside the door of the ER. The good news is that homeopathic remedies will not interfere with any allopathic medicine or methods.
Isn’t this a great strategy to have at your fingertips?
The most common way to administer a homeopathic remedy for an acute situation, particularly one with potentially life-threatening ramifications, is to repeat the chosen medicine every few minutes to every half hour.
As one witnesses improvement, gradually lengthen the time between doses. When the illness is resolved, stop administering.
Now, improvement doesn’t necessarily mean complete recovery within minutes. It can
mean the sufferer falls asleep, where healing often occurs. It can be represented by a
change in behavior. For example, if someone is anxious and vomiting, and the anxiety is relieved, then that’s a move in the right direction. One might also note that the vomiting
occurs less frequently or less dramatically. These are examples of indications that the correct remedy has been chosen.
Once we know the remedy we’ve chosen is correct, we can continue administering it. When the illness is resolved, we stop.
I know, I know, we love to see dramatic results when remedies are used, but there are plenty of situations in which there is only slow, steady improvement. This, too, is valuable.
Whether there is a rapid recovery or a return to homeostasis that is not as dramatic, homeopathy has a reputation for addressing illness in all its complexities. It can stand proud as the medicine that antidotes toxins yet leaves the person in a more advantageous posture than even before the poisoning.
Homeopathy does this by righting the wrong in the first place! Can you think of any other medicine that can deliver such results?
Me either.
We will examine 10 of the most common poisons and their antidotes:
For every toxin, for every ill, for every human suffering, there is a homeopathic remedy.
Did you hear me? Just in case you didn't, I'll repeat it.
For every toxin, for every ill, for every human suffering, there is a homeopathic remedy.
So don’t stop learning.
Sometimes, the correct medicine is not easily discernable; sometimes, it’s obvious, especially with the practical protocols I teach. As always, I urge you to learn more. The vast subject of homeopathy will empower and delight you.
When you feel overwhelmed by the toxicity in our world, smile. Now you know there are solutions at hand, and they are only a homeopathic remedy away. Stay tuned!

I am a homeopath with a worldwide practice working with families and individuals via Zoom. I'm also a teacher and most importantly, a mom who raised my now-adult children depending on homeopathy over the last 31 years. I lived decades of my life with food intolerances, allergies, and chemical sensitivities until I was cured with homeopathy, so I understand pain, anxiety, and suffering. You may feel that your issues are more severe or different than anyone else’s, but I have seen it all in my practice and in my work in India. My opinion is that nothing has come close to the reproducible, safe and effective results that my clients, students and I have achieved with homeopathy.
Call today and learn how homeopathy might just be the missing piece in your health strategy.

Would you please consider doing a post on antidoting mycotoxins from mold? We just purchased a home built in 2005 and got it tested for mycotoxins and mold and both came back positive. We will remediate but I will always wonder if we got it all 🙁 Would love your homeopathic take on mycotoxins and mold. Thank you for all the valuable wisdom you share! Aconite has been helpful in my son’s emergency asthma situations so I am a believer!
yes
Can you please include one for mycotoxins from toxic mold exposure – NOT mold spores but the mycotoxins toxic black mold like Stachybotrus, etc. produces?
yes
Anaphylaxis shock from scopion-bark scopion sting. Always an interesting topic
yes
This is wonderful, Joette! I’m especially looking forward to your teaching on poison ivy. My husband gets it so bad it becomes systemic and spreads all over his body, and the typical remedies don’t ease his suffering. Will you include this type of situation in the poison ivy blog post?
yes
I would love to see something on the poisoning of artificial food dyes, prevalent particularly in children. Common problems in our own household: bedwetting, potty accidents of all kinds during the day (frequent urination of 5 times per half hour), and behavioral problems. We avoid them but sometimes they are accidentally ingested.
Hi Joette! I am excited for this blog series. Wondering if you will discuss diesel fumes. My crew went to the monster Jam show this past weekend and I was searching for the detox for diesel fumes. Thanks for considering!
Dana
good suggestion.
Joette, is there any homeopathic that could help with long-term effects from being severely poisoned with moth balls (naphthalene).
A visit to the emergency room did not happen when the poisoning happened, and the person was sick for at least a week with dizziness and nausea. She took a homeopathic for the dizziness, but it didn’t have much impact.
As in most of these conditions, the symptoms are the key to the condition.
Look for a remedy that includes nausea, dizziness, and poison.
Search through the clinical section of the repertory.
Could you include metals as well?
Mercury
Aluminum and barium – being sprayed in the skies as we speak
Titanium – in metal hip replacement joints
Thank-you!
