Phosphoricum Acidum
PHOSPHORIC ACID
A valuable remedy that I prescribe in the early stages of dealing with trauma.
It helps when there is no strength left, when the soul and body are exhausted. When there is apathy and emptiness after stress and loss.
The remedy restores strength and hope.
INDICATIONS
- chronic fatigue, apathy
- emotional burnout
- loss of motivation, concentration
- exhaustion, weakened immunity.
Symptoms
- Exhaustion after exertion
- Loose stools with weakness
- Increased night sweating
- Diffuse hair shedding
Traditional symptom profile for reference, not a proven indication for treatment. Seek medical assessment for new or significant symptoms.
BASIS
Phosphoric acid – slightly corrodes metals, absorbs moisture well.
It symbolizes the dissolution of the old for the birth of the new.
In the body, it participates in energy metabolism.
Gently removes leaks, restores energy balance.
EFFECT
The remedy restores balance of strength and interest in life.
