The dose you would have taken is not considered to be poisonous.

The issue isnt so much about WHAT product you ingested, but rather the dose. Dont worry - you will be fine.
It is that, even a small dose of poison is still poisonous.

As I pointed out, at 12C it's diuted below Avogadro's number. You literally took diluted water and nothing else. You weren't poisoned.
The homeopathy remedy I took was Ignatia Amara. It has a small amount of oil from the Ignatia Amara plant in it (it is a poisonous plant). CVS has been sued for having homeopathy in their stores, so has Homeopathy companies been sued for having poison products. Here is an article about a baby Homeopathy product that has Belladonna, which is poisonous, in it.

Did you understand me when I explained to you how homeopathic remedies are prepared? The substance is diluted 1 part substance to 99 parts water in order to get a 1C remedy. That 1C is diluted 1 part remedy to 99 parts water to get to 2C and so on. At 12C it's statistically impossible that even a single molecule of the Ignatia Amara remains in the solution. Your solution was 30C meaning it's absolutely impossible that you had a single molecule of Ignatia Amara in your remedy.

You were taking diluted water. You were not poisoned.

You didn't understand that article. The Center for Inquiry didn't sue CVS because homeopathic remedies are poisonous. They sued them because homeopathy is a farce and the "medicine" they were selling was nothing but diluted water.

Sadly this is a good example of why people should't buy homeopathic remedies. They don't work if they're properly diluted and they can be dangerous if not properly diluted.

From the article:
In investigating Hyland’s teething products, the FDA focused on an ingredient known as atropa belladonna, an herb known colloquially as “deadly nightshade.”

In diluted form, the substance is not expected to pose any health risk. In 2010, however, FDA inspectors who examined Hyland’s facilities criticized the company for substandard manufacturing practices and found inconsistent levels of atropa belladonna in its products.

I found a box and it says the teething tablets were 12X, which still very diluted, but with much more potential for a mishap than the 30C you were taking.

Thank you for your words. Blessings to you. :cherryblossom:
