Management And Control Of Genetic Processes In Cotton Plants Through Homoeopathy, H Gangar
Management And Control Of Genetic Processes In Cotton Plants Through Homoeopathy, H Gangar
Indian Journal of Research in Homoeopathy
Detailed study on effects of homoeopathic drugs on plant bodies was undertaken at Central Institute for Research on Cotton Technology (ICAR) in Mumbai. This paper presents promising results of some of these preliminary experiments. This study reveals that electrically neutral and pure distilled water develops internal electrical charges as soon as homoeopathic drugs are added into it. Different drugs as well as different potencies of same drug develop different electrical charges. Further experiments, conducted on plants, proved that medicated water containing drugs of highest potency strongly influences the genetic processes of plants. It can accelerate germination process, can shorten cultivation …

Agave Americana: A Multicentric Double Blind Study Carried Out By Ccrh, Central Council For Research In Homoeopathy Ccrh
Indian Journal of Research in Homoeopathy
Objective of the study was to elicit the pathogenetic effects of Agave americana on healthy human volunteers. The human pathogenetic trial was conducted at four Research Institutes/Units of Central Council for Research in Homoeopathy (CCRH). It was a randomized placebo controlled study, in which twenty eight volunteers participated, out of which twenty were kept on drug and eight were on placebo. The drug has produced certain skin and gastric symptoms similar to its known toxic effects, such as acute contact dermatitis, gastric irritation. Besides, symptoms pertaining to other parts of the body have also been brought out during the course …
Clinical Evaluation Of The Homoeopathic Medicines In Chronic Cervicitis And Cervical Erosion – A Clinical Study: A Multicentric Open Clinical Trial Conducted By Ccrh, Central Council For Research In Homoeopathy Ccrh
Clinical Evaluation Of The Homoeopathic Medicines In Chronic Cervicitis And Cervical Erosion – A Clinical Study: A Multicentric Open Clinical Trial Conducted By Ccrh, Central Council For Research In Homoeopathy Ccrh
Indian Journal of Research in Homoeopathy
There is no direct reference of Homoeopathic medicines found useful in chronic cervicitis and cervical erosion available in the Homoeopathic literature. The nearest reference to chronic cervicitis is given as vaginitis, i.e. ‘Inflammation, vagina’ and that of cervical erosion as ‘Excoriation’ in Kent’s Repertory. Some of the medicines under these rubrics have been clinically used by the profession in the treatment of chronic cervicitis and cervical erosion with favourable results. So the Central Council for Research in Homoeopathy (CCRH) undertook this study. Patients for this prospective study were drawn from the general OPD of different units under Central Council for …

Damiana – A Clinical Verification Study: (A Multicentric Study Conducted By Ccrh), Central Council For Research In Homoeopathy Ccrh
Indian Journal of Research in Homoeopathy
Damiana or Turnera aphrodisiaca has been traditionally used as an invigorating and aphrodisiac herb in different schools of medicine for centuries. In homoeopathy, however, its use has been made besides the above conditions, for various other disorders like amenorrhoea, dysmenorrhoea, leucorrhoea, sterility and frigidity in females and spermatorrhoea, urinary tract infection and migraine in adults. It has also been used for incontinence of urine and affection of prostate in old people with success. The Central Council for Research in Homoeopathy undertook a clinical study to verify and confirm the uses of Damiana as mentioned in the homoeopathic materia medica2,3 with …
