(Ledum palustre)
Ledum is often used as a tea. Small doses of Ledum are helpful for conditions that have symptom such as infection or inflammation.
Like most Homoeopathic prescriptions, Ledum was made as a remedy by recognizing the reactions of healthy individuals to undiluted doses. The changes in the individuals were recorded.
When a Homoeopath sees a patient with a set of similar symptoms to the recorded ones induced by Ledum, they then prescribe it in an extremely dilute form. In a highly diluted dosage, Ledum can eliminate the symptoms that it creates when it is at full strength.
