eversal effects. A classic example often noted in the literature is that of
Eyebright. Eyebright is an herb used in homeopathy and herbal
remedies. The name was coined because of the product’s positive effect
on vision and the optic system. It helps make eyes bright. That is the
herbal indication for Eyebright. The homeopathic indication for it is
exactly the same. It is also used for vision problems, and to help patients
with optical disturbances. If everything in homeopathy were truly all
reversal, we would only use Eyebright on the patients who had vision
that was too perfect, because then the reversal effect of Eyebright in
homeopathic form would be that it would interfere with vision. This is
not the case.
It is also not the case in many types of sarcodal formulas. Thyroid
tissue has been demonstrated to have positive effects on the thyroid
system, and the thyroid hormone from the tissue can be utilized in cases
of hypothyroidism to stabilize thyroid function. In homeopathic form this
same thyroid tissue, as a sarcode, has the exact same indications. It can
also be utilized in the hypothyroid condition in which the patient has a
weak thyroid gland.
Examples of sarcodal remedies abound in this non-reversal action.
Adrenaline tissue, brain tissue, endocrine systems, heart tissue and the
like, all have the same indications homeopathically as they do in
glandular technology when used in raw dose. In all of these cases the
glandulars (sarcodes) are used to stabilize function. Thus, they can be
used in hyper or hypo cases. In the case of hyperthyroidism or
hypothyroidism, the thyroid sarcode might be used which helps stabilize
tissue. But it is not always reversal.
The sarcodal remedies, as we proved in the chapter on sarcodes, will
have a stabilizing effect in rejuvenating or increasing the probability that
healthy tissues will ensue in the organism. As the organism produces
new tissues in the thyroid, the cervical, the vertebrae, or wherever in the
body, the homeopathic sarcodal therapy can help to insure that healthy
