is it true that homeopathics start with a base of water and alcohol?

I have a 6 month with a pretty intense allergic reaction to something! She can’t breathe through her nose and her eyes are so red and watery it looks as though she is crying! Is there something homepathic I can give her! PLEASE!

My daughter was diagnosed as having allergies and her pediatrician wanted to put her on Zyrtec right away. I don’t feel comfortable putting a 14 month old on Zrytec!! I have been giving her probiotics, Nordic Naturals Omega-3 and Nettles & Eyebright by Herbs for Kids. In 2 weeks I have already noticed her symptoms improving!! Atleast give homeopathy a try first!

Flushing your sinuses with a neti pot is an excellent way to get some relief. The only problem is that you cant use it everywhere. On a recent visit to my allergist she recommended a new “all natural” nasal spray called Sinol Allergy/Sinus nasal spray. For the last two months I have used this product and I love it. Sinol has no harsh side effects but it does a little bite to it when you first begin to use it. Like eating horseradish or wasabi but I like that nose clearing feeling. It will also keep your sinuses drained and bacteria free. I wish I found Sinol years ago.

Wow, it is pretty astonishing – and disappointing – to see that Whole Foods is pushing homeopathy. Homeopathy is one of the most patently absurd forms of pseudoscience among all the “alternative” treatments out there. Many, many studies have been done on homeopathic treatments, and every one has shown that there’s no difference between homeopathy and, well, nothing. The homeopathic pills are just sugar pills, and the liquids are just water, so taking water alone works just as well – as long as you think you’re getting a treatment. As some of the comments above mentioned, there is a genuine placebo effect, which has been well documented, but there’s no need to shell out $$$ for bogus homeopathic “remedies” that consist of little more than water.
Whole Foods should be ashamed of profiting off its customers this way.
