Homoeopathic Medicines made out of sarcodes \u2013 health animal products<\/strong> and their preparation, properties and clinical indications<\/p>\n

In Greek the term \u2018Sarcode\u2019 means fleshy. Sarcodes imply protoplasm of animals as distinguished from vegetable protoplasm. In homeopathy some of the Sarcodes are proved medicines. They are obtained from healthy endocrine or ductless glands or normal secretions of living human organs & lower animals. The secretions are mostly hormones.<\/p>\n

Eg: Adrenaline, eholestinium, feltari, insulin, pancreatium,Pepsinum.pitutory,Thyroidinum, Vulpis-fel etc.
\nIn fact Sarcodes belong to animal kingdom sarcodes include products of animal glands and endocrine gland as a whole and secretion. Endocrine or ductless glands are those which produce hormones in the body.<\/p>\n

Hormones are specific substances produced by the endocrine glands of higher animals, which are secreted into the blood & thus carried to all part of the body where they regulate many metabolic functions of the organism. They are quick acting and only a minute amount may have a profound effect on metabolism. Hormones are either proteins (eg:- insulin)steriods(eg.cortisone) or relatively simple organic compounds (eg. Adrenalin)<\/p>\n

Medicines
\n1. Sarcodes from whole endocrine glands
\n<\/strong>Thyroidinum (of sheep or calf)
\nPitutarium postenium (the post position of the pituitary gland of sheep)<\/p>\n

2. Sarcodes from Healthy Secretion (Hormones)
\n<\/strong>Adrenaline (Epinephrine) :Hormone produced by the adrenal glands and may also be prepared synthetically. Its synthetic salt \u201cAdrenalin hydrocloricum\u201d is also used.
\nCortisone Acetate (Cortisone monoacetate)
\nCortisone A crystalline ste steroid hormone screated by the cortex of the adrenal gland in man
\nAdrenocorticotrophin (Syn-Acth, Corticotrophin) :\u00a0 A polypeptide hormone secreted by the pitutory gland which controls the adrenal glands.
\nInsulin : A pancreatic hormone that controls \u201cSugar netabolism\u201d in the body
\nPepsin :A digestive \u2018enzyme\u2019 produced in the stomach, which converts proteins into peptones produced from the stomach of hog or pig (secretin)<\/p>\n
