Re: [H] Are Cannabis Sativa/Indica in HPUS? FDA Raids Boiron

In its infinite wisdom, the FDA years back declared that the "energy
imprint" of a "controlled substance" must be just as tightly
controlled as the substance itself. I suppose we are "lucky" that
photos of it aren't illegal as well.

Not too many years ago it could still be gotten through an MD
homeopath (I suppose any MD could get it as well?), and your homeopath
might be able to steer you.

Another option would be to a radionics "remedy maker." Even though
the products of those are technically "not a homeopathic remedy," in
fact they work nearly the same, and I don't think that type of "energy
imprint" has been made illegal yet.

It could also be worth checking with homeopathic pharmacies overseas,
where regulations are more user-friendly.
