Anyone use "enuraid"

Post by herefishy » Tue Feb 03, 2015 8:52 am

It's a homeopathic remedy for incontinence, and really helps me cut down on the nighttime bathroom visits,, but wonder if it's safe for the long term.

It's a ridiculous preparation for "a sucker born every minute".
Belladonna 6X HPUS - for frequent and profuse urination with sensation of motion in bladder; for incontinence and continuous dropping

Cantharis 6X HPUS - for intolerable urging, urine passes in drops

Apis Mell. 6X HPUS - for frequent and involuntary urination; last drops burn and smart

Arnica Montana 6X HPUS - enhances muscular activity of the bladder

Allium Cepa 6X HPUS - for sensation of weakness in bladder and urethra, increased secretion of urine

Rhus Arom. 6X HPUS - for incontinence with constant dribbling

Equisetum Hyem 6X HPUS - for feeling of fullness in bladder, frequent urging, incontinence

In a base of Lactose (milk sugar), NF.

by definition, it's nothing but water... but if you think it's working, keep it up.

I would take a break from even homeopathic remedies. Maybe every two months, take a break for a week so you can make sure it is continuing to be effective?

Well they do take a big vessel of water (30 gallons and up depending on amount of sales) and put a fraction of an ounce of the "preparation" in and run the mixer.

Then there is the sweetener - lactose. Depending on how much they put in, how much you take and your level of lactose intolerance, you may get a little tooty.

Some times (in this case 4 out of 5) they don't even contain the "ingredient" that they are supposed to include.
The authorities said they had conducted tests on top-selling store brands of herbal supplements at four national retailers — GNC, Target, Walgreens and Walmart — and found that four out of five of the products did not contain any of the herbs on their labels.

Humans are funny. The only answers they want are ones that confirm (at least partially) what they already believe. They ignore the truth if it contradicts their beliefs.

At its best, snake oil will only bite you in the wallet.
Far worse outcomes are quite common.
The FDA seems to be for sale to the highest bidder, at least lately.
