The ABC Homeopathy Forum

is 30x same as 30k?

You mark potency as "x" (30x or 200x...). The pharmacies over here don't use "x", they sell 30k or 200k.

I always show the remedy written to them (Sulphur 200x) and they just give me the "K" (Sulphur 200k). Today one pharmacist told me it is not the same one - is it?

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
"k" is the same as "c" - just other way of preparing.

"c" is preparing remedies in centisimal scale (100 x diluted at each step) and "x" is prep. in decimal scale diluting 10 x at each step.

So what does this mean practice?

You tell me to take 30x and I have taken 30c - have I taken too weak remedy or too strong remedy?

Maria
 
Maria&boys last decade
too strong!
 
Astra2012 last decade
Any way don't bother about it much.

That's a strange answer to a question.
 
Astra2012 last decade
If you see the other posts by Maria,you will understand the cryptic answer.

anyway,I believe in octaves,

30,200,1M,10M,50M,CM,DM and MM.

I feel any potency between any two of these octaves will have almost same effect.For example whether you give 200X(roughly 100C),or 200C, the effect would be same more or less.

Sorry-I haven't seen other Maria's posts-anyway I usuallake all posts on the individual basis.

I use the same potencies as you do +12c (or 15c) Rarely x .

Hi,

Now it is my turn to be a bit suprised? What on earth there is in my posts...a cultural thing maybe.
By the way: where are you from Murthy?

Maria

Hi Maria

Nothing to worry about.What I said was I already explained this to you,in one of your other posts,and hence can afford to be cryptic.

Murthy

I am from India.

Hi Murthy,

I think I understand what you ment by saying it. It just sounds so funny.

Maria

to Maria and others!!!!
Sometimes you make big shows about some problems of ill people, Murty ,you also offenced me ,but i see , you don't know the basic of homeopathy. But I would like to explein to Maria :

D = decimal potencies = x

CH = centesimal pot. ( Hahneman method )

K = centesimal pot. ( Korsakov method )

Q = 50- millesimal potencies = LM

So,Maria,30x is the same as
D30 and 30 K is the same like C 30 . This is not the same in any case!

Kind regards to all

Hi Arnika,

Thanks for the exact information.

In the country I live in, they sell only x and ch. In this site I am told to buy 30x or 200x. How do I "translate" them to x or ch? Or do I need to translate them?

Maria
 
Maria&boys last decade
If you were advised to take x-pot. and they sell x-pot. in your place-where is the problem?

ch=c
 
Astra2012 last decade
But Maria wrote , that in her pharmacy ,if you order x
potecy ,they give you K and this is the problem .They shouldn't do this !!!

Hi,

The pharmacists don't recognize "x" here in Belgium.

Sometimes I visit in a "homeopatie-herboristerie" - shop, and there I was told that x and k is not the same thing.
He said they sell only k (germans use this) or ch (french use this). The man, a homepathic doctor by himself, was not able to explain me the differences. The French-speaking population doesn't speak English that good.

Arnica

Thanks for the compliment!!

Would you care to read my explanation of potencies in "two years old" thread by Maria,and decide whether I know the basics or not? For your convenience,I am repeating here.

"Puneeth and Maria

C and K are the same,as far as the potency is concerned.C also is sometimes called CH.

The difference is in the method.C is done by the classical Hanemann method,where a new vial is used for every potency.

K is karschof (Not sure of spelling) method,in which the same vial is used, by keeping just one drop of the previous potency,and adding 99 drops of water/alcohol.Same vial is used till you reach the desired potency.

There are some old threads on potencies.Search for them."

Your eagerness to pounce upon me is understandable,but you may have to wait a bit longer.

All the best.

And My Dear Arnica

This is another post from me.(chronic urticaria thread)

"200X is not 12C.

If you forget about succussion,and talk only about dilution,

1X is one drop of medicine and nine drops of alcohol/water.So,the dilution is 1/10.Now this 1/10 is again diluted to 1/10 to make 2X.

So,2X is in effect 1/100 of the medicine,which is equal to 1c.

But 2x is succuused 20 times to make it,but 1c is succussed only 10 times.So,the energy released is slightly different in both cases.

So,200X is roughly equivalent to 100C."

Do you still have doubts about my basics?

Murthy

Murthy

Hello!Well, this is not chat room but - forum. But I hope nothing is wrong if I tell you that my country have only 2 million people, but we have own language , high mountains, hills, fields , a lot of forests , rivers , is very green , we have hot summers , cold winters, bloomy springs and all colours autumns and at the end , we have also see.
I am sure that you have never heard for my country .
It is SLOVENIA- try to find,

Hi

All work and no play makes John a dull boy.

Little chatting is O.K.

I know about Slovenia.

Area: 20,273 km2
Population: 1,964,036 (2002 census)
Capital city: Ljubljana
Language: Slovene; in nationally mixed areas, also Italian and Hungarian
Currency: Slovenian tolar (SIT)
Important dates:
- Independence - 25 June 1991,
- Member of EU - 1 May 2004
The Republic of Slovenia lies at the heart of Europe, where the Alps and the Mediterranean meet the Pannonian plains and the mysterious Karst. To the north is Austria; to the east, Hungary; to the south, Croatia; and to the west, Italy.

Slovenia became an independent state in 1991 and a member of the EU on May 1, 2004.

Arts and Culture
Situated at a cultural crossroads, Slovenia has always been a place of high artistic achievements. Arts and culture have had a special position in the history of the Slovenian nation and have compensated for the lack of its own state and political institutions in the past. A rich cultural life and far-reaching institutions, organisations, and cultural societies are comparable to the most developed European countries.
