The Potential Role Of Homeopathic Hypothalamus In The Treatment Of Obesity
ABSTRACT
Obesity has reached alarming proportions around the world; it is an important burden for health systems and increased death both in developed and developing countries.
Homeopathy has been used to treat several diseases; this study is aimed to evaluate the effect of the homeopathic Hypothalamus on the metabolic parameters of animals fed a hypercaloric diet.
Thirty animals were treated with a hypercaloric diet and water ad libitum for 50 days and, then, they were divided into three groups [n=10]; G1: treated with hypercaloric diet and water mixed with Hypothalamus 30CH ad libitum; G2: treated with hypercaloric diet and water mixed with Hypothalamus 15CH ad libitum; and, G3: control group that received hypercaloric diet and water ad libitum.
Our results show that there was no interference of Hypothalamus in the initial and final weight, in the percentage of weight gain, Lee’s index, glycaemia, and total cholesterol, but there was a reduction in the thoracic and abdominal circumference as well as in the abdominal fat in the treated groups. Increase in the levels of triglycerides was also observed.
We may conclude that Hypothalamus may interfere in some metabolic parameters, but other studies should be performed with the aim of establishing the doses and period of administration.

The Subtleties of Homeopathic Prescribing
Homeopaths often probe into fears and dreams of patients, because these are the areas of least control. The unconscious level of the mind is where homeopaths partake in the big story of humanity as a whole: of the individual’s life, the archetypical initiations, transitions and thresholds shared by all humanity.
