What are Homeopathic Substances?

Homeopathy is a natural pharmaceutical science that uses various plants, minerals or animals in very small dosages to stimulate the person’s natural defenses. “Homoios” in Greek means similar and “pathos” means disease or suffering. This form of natural healing is based on the idea that a disease can be cured by treating it with very small doses of the very substance that, in larger amounts, would actually cause symptoms of the same disease. Much like a vaccine triggers the body’s defense system to build immunity to specific diseases, homeopathic substances activate the body’s natural defense systems to combat specific ailments or conditions.

Homeopathic medicines are safer than mainstream medicines and, when used correctly, have virtually no side effects. Because the original substances are highly diluted, they are totally safe to use for treatment of most minor ailments. Symptom relief is attained through stimulation of the body’s natural healing process. Precise levels of homeopathic ingredients work safely and without side effects.

Homeopathy is a 200 year old medical system used the world over. Great Britain’s Royal Family, Mahatma Gandhi, John D. Rockefeller, Sr., Tina Turner, and Yehudi Menuhin do not have much in common, except for the fact that they all have been strong supporters of homeopathic medicine. There is one simple reason that these and other respected individuals the world over have supported homeopathic medicine: it works.

What Are Transdermal Patches?

The transport of agents (chemical or drugs) across the skin and into the general circulation of the bloodstream is known as the Transdermal Delivery System.*

The Transdermal Patch is an adhesive patch, much like the common Band-Aid, that attaches directly to the skin and releases its contents directly into the bloodstream. The contents of Natural Trim Patch enter the bloodstream in constant, extremely small quantities for up to 24 hours before Natural Trim Patch must be replaced.

The primary advantage of Natural Trim Patch is that ill effects to the metabolism or internal organs does not occur as is often the case with medicines that are absorbed through the stomach. For example, the most commonly prescribed patch for motion sickness is scopolamine which is so effective when administered by a transdermal patch that it is no longer prescribed in any other way.
