🧠General & Mental Health
▲GENERAL
The provings of Coff were made with the raw berries.
Coff belongs to the same family as Chin, and Ip., and like these remedies has many symptoms like intermittent fever.
Over excitable and over sensitive nerves, special senses become over acute.

Sudden emotions, especially joy and pleasurable surprise, can produce dangerous symptoms.

Clarke noted that although it is believed that coffee antidotes almost all homeopathic medicines, it is doubtful whether it could do so, especially when remedies are given in high potencyStrength level of a remedyThe dilution and succussion scale of a remedy (e.g., 6C, 30C, 200C, 1M), indicating its energetic concentration..
Experience shows that cor rectly selected homeopathic remedies act in spite of taking coffee.
COMMENTS-Teste grouped Coff with Caust.
He remarked that potentized Coff prevents or neutralizes in many persons the effects of roasted coffee.
Teste noted that this quasi-isopathic action is by no means confined to Coff., potentizations of many other drugs being antidotal to secondary effects of the crude substances.
The pain becomes intolerable and sometimes burning integument of head very sensitive and painful on slightest touch.
Body and mind excessively sensitive.
Patients look exhausted, retire to dark places, close their Coffea cruda eyes to avoid light of day, remain seated in an armchair or stretched on a bed.
“The least noise or motion excites the pain.
They avoid talking, being talked to or hearing others talk.
The body is colder than usual though no chills are experienced, the hands and feet are especially cold.
“They loathe everything, especially food and drink, on account of a continual sickness at the stomach.
If the attack is very violent a vomiting of mucus takes place, which, how ever, does notrelieve the headache.
There are no alvine discharges.
This kind of megrim scarcely ever leaves before evening.
“If the paroxysm is less violent, a little strong coffee which was the first cause of such a headache will produce a temporary palliation of the pain, but the disposition to relapse becomes so much greater.
The attacks come irregularly, every fortnight or every few weeks without any apparent cause and quite suddenly, so much so that the patient often does not feel a single unpleasant symptom the evening preceding the attack.
Such a headache has never been seen by me except in real cof fee-drinkers.” More recently.
Dr. Gilles de la Tourette (Lancet, July 20, 1895) has described the effects of coffee.
In his opinion they are very frequently mistaken for the effects of alcohol.
“Morning vomiting of glairy mucus, pain in the pit of the stomach, thickly-coated tongue, loss of appetite.
The disgust excited by even the idea of solid food is such that these patients eat nothing else but bread soaked in their poison—coffee.
There supervene then nausea, vomiting and painful acid belchings.” The effects of coffee are less deep than those of alcohol and quickly disappear when the habit is discontinued.
