(1) Any of the Flower Remedies can be used to form a combination medicine for a case, which means that ho one remedy antidotes another by coming in contact with it.
These there is no necessity to segregate different Flower Remedies for storage. Even the same dropper used for combining  2 Flower Remedies does no harm to the effectiveness of the combination. This cannot be done in the case of homeopathic medicines.
(2) The homeopathic dilutions can be topped up with spirit again and again without the dilution losing its effective power.
In the case of Bach Flower Remedies, this is not advised. It is not possible to top up the stock bottles again and again with brandy without weakening its effect. They remain effective only in the original formulation.
(3) There is no difference in the dosage for an infant or an adult. The question of overdosing or any reaction therefrom does not arise m case of Flower Remedies.
(4) Bach Flower Remedy like homeopathic medicines (but unlike allopathic drugs) has not to reach the stomach before it ca*1 show its effect. Its effect starts as soon as it touches tne tongue. It is therefore necessary to rinse the mouth clean before dropping the Flower Remedy on it Tobacco chewing mouth, or betel-stained tongue are not suitable f°r administering Flower Remedies.
If the Flower Remedy is administered diluted with water the liquid should not be gulped down the throat. It should be sipped or kept in contact with the tongue before letting it go to the throat.
(5) The Flower Remedy can be given on empty stomach in the morning- or 1 hour before or after meals after thoroughly washing the mouth.
(6) Never take Flower Remedy with any beverage such as tea, coffee or cocoa.
(7) The Flower Remedy given in the form of globules or in liquid form (diluted in water) or drops from the medicinal bottle are equally effective.
(8) If during the course of treatment by Bach Flower Remedies, there is improvement in the moods of the patient, but some sort of skin eruption with discharge starts suddenly, it should not be presumed that Flower Remedies have caused this new disease. It should be understood that the treatment has set in motion a cleansing process on the physical side after benefiting the mental side, and if the treatment is continued the physical signs of cleansing would soon pass and the patient fully cured. Very often it is found during the course of treatment by Flower Remedies that old symptoms do come back and go themselves under the same treatment.

Weight Reduction for Osteoarthritis
Can losing weight help your arthritis? The results are not conclusive.
One observational study suggested that weight loss can reduce the risk of developing symptomatic osteoarthritis of the knee in women. This seems reasonable, as excess weight increases the stress on the knee joint. However, to date, no studies have tested weight loss as a treatment for osteoarthritis. One study did look at the possibility that the positive results seen in other studies on changes in diet were caused by weight loss, but found no correlation between the amount of weight loss and the improvement of symptoms.
Nonetheless, if you are overweight, you should make every attempt to lose weight. Increased weight is associated with accelerated progression of the disease.

Exercise
Exercise can play a central role in keeping your joints healthy.
It was once thought that exercising a joint with osteoarthritis would cause it to “wear out” faster. Recent evidence, however, suggests that exercise can play a central role in maintaining a healthy joint. Furthermore, research shows that exercises designed to strengthen the muscles surrounding an osteoarthritic joint can lead to improved function and better psychological health. However, the fact that it is difficult, if not impossible, to do “placebo” exercise makes these studies suggestive only.
Two controlled studies on osteoarthritis of the knee have found that strengthening the muscle that straightens the leg (the quadriceps) allows participants to have less disability and possibly less pain. Another couple of studies suggested that a regimen of moderate aerobic exercise, like walking or swimming, also improves the ability to function with osteoarthritis. In one study, which also included stretching and psychological support, physical activity increased by 24% and pain decreased by 14%. The use of medications was also lower. However, because all three elements of the treatment were combined, we don’t know if the positive effects were because of the exercise, the stretching, or the psychological support – or all of them.
Both of the studies that included aerobic exercise indicated that participants with moderate to severe osteoarthritis of the knee can benefit from participating in activities equivalent to walking or swimming for 30 minutes 3 times a week. Putting all this information together, it appears that regular exercise should probably be a part of your treatment plan if you develop osteoarthritis.
Consult with your doctor or a physical therapist for recommendations about the type of exercise and its intensity.
