How
long will it take to get results with Loma Lux® Eczema?

What
time of day do I take Loma Lux® Eczema?
Any time is fine, but most people take it in the morning.
Take your recommended dosage only once a day. For best
results, chew the tablet slightly and allow it to dissolve
in your mouth. By chewing the tablet instead of swallowing
the tablet whole, the ingredients are more quickly and
easily absorbed into your bloodstream. You will, however,
still see results even if you choose to swallow the tablets
whole.

How
long will I have to take Loma Lux® Eczema? Will it make the
problem go away forever?
This also depends on the person; some will take the product
for 4-8 weeks (one bottle), have good results and be able
to stop taking the product for a long period of time.
Some people will not be able to stop taking the product;
they might try to stop but will almost immediately have
a reoccurrence. Some will reduce the dose and stay on
it for long-term maintenance. Every person will have to
work out what is best for them after they’ve obtained
their first results.

Is
Loma Lux® Eczema safe?
Yes! Homeopathic medications have been used for centuries
worldwide. There are no known negative side effects with
homeopathy, unlike many conventional drugs. Many prescription
drugs rely on strength to over-power a disease. In the
process, there can be serious side effects and toxicity
problems. The theory behind homeopathics is that they
work at the cellular level by stimulating the body's own
natural healing ability. Recommended for children and
adults, Loma Lux® Eczema is safe enough for children
as young as six.

or nursing. The product has never been tested on unborn
children or very small children.

Isn’t
nickel a heavy metal, toxic, and doesn’t cause cancer?
No. Nickel is NOT a heavy metal. It is very similar to
iron or cobalt (in the vitamin B-12). LOMA
LUX products are NOT TOXIC. The amount of nickel in Loma
Lux® is less than FDA and EPA standards for safe consumption
in diet and drinking water. There are only micro amounts
of nickel in tablet products (e.g. safe even in nickel
allergic individuals).
However,
everything is toxic in high enough doses. It would take
50-100 times recommended doses to begin to see toxicity
with Loma Lux® Eczema.
Nickel
Sulfate has NEVER been shown to produce cancer even in
very high doses when given orally (by mouth). Several
long-term animal studies have proven this.

Can
I take Loma Lux® Eczema if I am lactose intolerant?
Yes. The lactose in Loma Lux® is not an active ingredient.
Most lactose intolerant individuals handle Loma Lux®
fine. Keep in mind that since they are dissolving in your
mouth, a large part of the lactose is going to be absorbed
into the bloodstream and never reach the stomach. You
might try taking Loma Lux® Eczema with a little juice,
if you have any concerns.

Is
the lactose in Loma Lux® “Vegan” friendly?
|

What
is Homeopathic Medication?
Homeopathy is a 200 year old medical science which uses
natural substances of mineral, plant, or animal origin
to stimulate the body's own immune system in order to
affect a healing response. In homeopathy, symptoms are
an important tool that helps point the way to an internal
imbalance. Dr. Samuel Hahnemann, the father of Homeopathy
(1755-1843), determined that symptoms were simply responses
to bodily stresses which indicate an imbalance. In fact,
he concluded in a positive light that symptoms are used
by the body in an attempt to heal itself (e.g., a fever
is not a disease but a symptom of a disease which the
body uses to fight the disease); therefore, symptoms should
not be suppressed, but stimulated. Based on a set of symptoms,
the appropriate homeopathic medicine (remedy) acts as
a catalyst to boost the body's natural defense mechanisms
in order to bring about healing.
Used
worldwide, homeopathic remedies are based on the 'law
of similars' - similia similibus curentur (let likes be
cured by likes). This law is paradoxical in that when
taken in large doses, a natural substance will cause the
same symptoms in a healthy person as those which are caused
by a specific illness. The paradox occurs when the same
substance is taken in minute doses (infinitesimal or ultra-low
doses) instead of causing the symptoms of the illness;
it stimulates the body's natural healing defenses with
no toxic side effects. In fact, to date there are no known
adverse side effects from natural homeopathic remedies.
Homeopathic medicine can be used as a safe and effective
alternative to traditional medical practices (allopathic
medicine) or in combination with traditional treatments
(there are no known drug interactions between natural
homeopathic medicines and traditional medicines).
Since
the 1800's over 2000 homeopathic medicines have been carefully
tested ('proven') for their specific symptom pattern and
meticulously catalogued into a comprehensive collection
of homeopathic remedies. The compilations are usually
named after their compiler (e.g. Kent's Materia Medica,
Clark's Materia Medica). In 1833, the first United States
homeopathic school was founded by Dr. Constantine Hering
in Allentown, Pennsylvania, and in 1844, the American
Institute of Homeopathy was founded. In 1888, the first
volume of the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United
States (HPUS) was issued by the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia
Convention. Substances outlined in the HPUS were then
adopted by the US Congress as an official compendium (reference
guide) in 1938 and are recognized as official drugs in
the current Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and the Code of
Regulations. The HPUS is continually updated to reflect
current manufacturing methods and guidelines for prescription
and non-prescription status of homeopathic remedies.
The
manufacture and sale of the homeopathic remedies offered
by LOMA LUX Laboratories complies with all government
rules and regulations and general goods manufacturing
practices (GMP).
