This episode of Nutrition NUTZ explores how homeopathy addresses everyday health concerns by considering the full experience of the individual. Dr. Phil speaks with Christophe Merville, DPharm, Director of Pharmacy Education and Development at Boiron, a world leader in homeopathic medicines. They discuss how people with the same complaint, such as stress or sleep difficulties, may each benefit from a different homeopathic medicine. The key is in how each person personally experiences their symptoms. Listeners will gain a fresh perspective on how to think more critically and intentionally about self-care. Homeopathy offers a gentle, personalized option for addressing common health complaints in a thoughtful way.
