Exclusively Documented in Boericke

This remedy is documented exclusively in Boericke's Materia Medica. It does not appear in other classical references in this encyclopedia.

🎯 It acts deeply on nutrition and tissue building, particularly useful in states of physical and mental exhaustion.
📖 Boericke writes:
Used homeopathically, dynamized Glycerine seems to act
deeply and long, building up tissue, hence of great use in marasmus, debility, mental and physical, diabetes, etc. It disturbs nutrition in its primary action, and, secondarily, seems to improve the general state of nutrition (Dr. Wm. B. Griggs).
