Hello Group

I was reading a natural physician's healing therapies book and it mentions that 
aconite taken when you first feel symptoms will stop the illness in its tracks. 
 They said the homeopathic aconite is different than the herb.  It also said it 
was used for anxiety.  Has anyone tried this for flu's?  

The dosage they said was two pellets of the 30C potency in your mouth every 15 
minutes for relief of shock, anxiety, panic attacks, or an acute infection like 
the flu or ear infection.  They said if you don't get some relief in the first 
hour to discontinue.

Sounded interesting.  Anyone have knowledge of this herb?
