Homeopathy helps treat diseases with the help of natural substances taken in tiny doses, which, if used in large quantities, can cause the same problems in the body that it helps to fight. Sulfur iodine is used to treat certain problems.
Sulfur in nature
Sulfur - one of the elements of the chemical table D.I. Mendeleev, containing and showing all the simple substances that make up this world. Under natural conditions, in nature, sulfur can be found both in the form of compounds and in the natural state. This non-metal in itself is a crystalline yellow substance. Due to the unpleasant smell that appears during the reactions of sulfur, it has been associated with the other world from the earliest times. But without sulfur, there is no life on earth - it is part of living tissues in the form of organic and inorganic compounds. The importance of this natural element in medicine is huge, both in traditional and alternative, where it has been used for millennia.
Sulfur in the human body
One of the biologically significant elements is sulfur, no matter how strange it may sound. As scientists have found out, in the human body in one kilogram of its own weight contains 2 grams of sulfur. It is an important element of many processes that occur during life, since sulfur is a part of vitamins, amino acids and enzymes.
Sulfur in homeopathic granules
For many centuries, sulfur has been used to treat various health problems - as an external antiseptic and anti-inflammatory for joints, as a laxative, to lower blood pressure. Everyone knows hydrogen sulfide baths from natural sources, which can be used at balneological resorts in many countries of the world. Homeopathy, undoubtedly, has in its arsenal of medicinal preparations and sulfur components - iodine sulfur (Sulfur jodatum) or, strictly speaking in scientific terms, sulfur iodate.
The use of sulfur as a drug component is justified by the fact that it has long been used as an external agent for the treatment of skin diseases, having a complex of anti-inflammatory, antibacterial qualities. Homeopathy also offers sulfur compounds as substances that help in diseases of the nervous system.
However, physiotherapy of traditional medicine recommends hydrogen sulfide baths for most patients who do not have contraindications to such a procedure to strengthen the nervous system. Sulfur preparations should be prescribed with extreme caution, because they can cause extensive, severe allergic reactions, even in small doses.
Scope and principle of action
In what cases is iodide sulfur prescribed? There are many indications for its use. Such a substance is produced in the form of homeopathic granules, ointments or drops. All of these drugs can be used as anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial or absorbable.
The practice of homeopathy has proven the effectiveness of drugs in the treatment of skin diseases such as furunculosis, pyoderma. Sulfur iodine also helps in the fight against lymphadenitis and hypertrophic rhinitis. This substance enhances the effect of other drugs, both alternative and traditional medicine. Therefore, before prescribing the remedy, the homeopathic doctor must accurately determine the patient's history. Sulfur iodine recommends homeopathy, naturally, as prescribed by a doctor, in the following cases:
- poisoning with various substances;

- withdrawal syndrome;
- reception of stimulants (power engineers);
- respiratory diseases;
- skin infections;

Taking homeopathic medicines, including Sulfur iodine 6, it should be remembered that the sensations caused by the medicine are a hypertrophied form of manifestation of existing diseases. That is why with a properly prescribed preparation of iodine sulfur, a person will feel:

- desire to constantly be in the fresh air;
- morning cough with sputum discharge;
- weakness and dizziness;
- problems with bowel movements (diarrhea alternates with constipation);
- frequent urination

According to homeopathy, an increase in health problems in the first period of use of the drug is an indicator of its effectiveness.

Homeopathy as a science about treating human diseases is very complex. A practicing homeopath should have a good view of the problem as a whole, and breaking it down into separate components. Homeopathy heals the whole body, not just one disease. Therefore, the use of the drug iodine sulfur should be justified, since sulfur, which is the basis of this component, can be dangerous.
