Ignatia Amara is a homeopathic remedy obtained from the St. Ignatius bean produced by a climbing plant of the Loganiaceae family that comes from the Philippines. The bean is shelled, dried and then macerated in alcohol to obtain Ignatia Amara's mother tincture. Most Ignatia Amara remedies contain some amount of lactose and sucrose, with the exception of the powder, which contains only lactose. Ignatia Amara helps relieve common disorders in irritable and nervous subjects. This remedy is certainly particularly effective for the treatment of psychosomatic disorders, but it can also be used to treat many other pathologies.
Ignatia Amara can be used to treat certain behavioral disorders such as anxiety, especially when the subject tends to sigh several times in a relatively short period of time or to become irritated easily. Ignatia Amara is also used to treat grief-related sleep disorders and can be given to people who sleep little but can sleep easily in noise.
This homeopathic medicine also helps relieve stage fright, especially if the person experiences frequent urges to urinate. Ignatia Amara is also recommended for those who easily panic in the face of a more or less frightening situation. Finally, it is the ideal remedy to reduce the manifestations of spasmophilia or depression caused by an emotional shock.
Stress-related pathologies
Ignatia Amara can be prescribed in cases of stress-related pathologies. In particular, it helps to relieve violent migraines during which the patient has the impression that a spike is sinking into his head. The use of Ignatia Amara also helps to reduce headaches caused by too strong an odor or indigestible food. In addition, stress sometimes leads to a dry cough. Ignatia Amara is also indicated in this type of pathology. Painful and spasmodic periods as well as some abdominal pain are also related to stress and can be treated by Ignatia Amara.
Some diseases such as high blood pressure, asthma, gastritis, neck pain and low back pain sometimes occur because of stress and are relieved by taking Ignatia Amara. Finally, tachycardia, aerophagia and lump sensations in the throat are cases where the use of Ignatia Amara is effective.
In
addition to behavioural disorders and stress-related pathologies, Ignatia Amara can help relieve hot flashes due to menopause, especially those aggravated by emotion.

It is further to be noted that this remedy can moderate appetite and help patients lose weight.
