A fascinating fact about Aconite (Aconitum napellus), a commonly used homeopathic remedy, is its historical significance. In ancient times, Aconite was known as "the queen of poisons" or "the mother of poisons." This is because the plant contains highly toxic alkaloids, especially in its roots and seeds.
However, through the process of potentisation in homeopathy, Aconite is transformed into a safe and effective remedy used to address various acute conditions, including sudden fevers, anxiety, and shock. This transformation from poison to medicine exemplifies the fundamental principle of "like cures like" in homeopathy.
