The heavy metals generally have relatively high density and are toxic or poisonous at low concentrations. We have already studied that heavy metals are natural components of the earth’s crust. They can neither be degraded nor destroyed. They may enter our bodies via food, drinking water, and air to a smaller extent. Heavy metal poisoning can result from drinking contaminated water. E.g. lead pipes. Now let us study some homeopathic remedies made out of heavy metals along with their common personality, characteristics, and know 12 Characteristic Mind Symptoms of Heavy Metals.

Now a comment on homeopathic features of these remedies.
1. Ag has more anxiety than Ag nit while the Mind provings are almost identical. However, if you study Ag why even bring Ag nit?
2. I disagree with them being tubercular, most are strongly syphilitic, but of course this depends on the depth & extend of the pathology.
3. Au has the desire to jump and kill herself, which they do– but not Ag. Ag is very impulsive, so she has an *impulse* to jump (balcony, bridge) but no desire to do that and never will jump. N.B. it is not a thought, like in Nat sulph, but a thoughtless impulse.
4. I came to the conclusion that Pt is not very well studied, especially female Pt is practically unknown to homeopaths. They all get hung up on ‘hysteria’ and ‘promiscuity’–those fine 19th century diagnostic criteria. Vithoulkas, however, mentions that the mental diseases (you have listed here) only begin if sexuality is suppressed. Probably the case with Au & the rest of them too.
5. More Sxs that they share: extreme fatigue on exertion, weakness (especially Ag); high sex drive; analytical mind.
This is a strange classification of metals. The class of ‘Heavy metals’ includes metals that do have high density but are considered ‘Toxic.’ The metals you listed here are *not* toxic; in fact, some are quite bio-compatible, such as Au. Pd it also used in dentistry, so not highly toxic. The metals you study here, Argentum (silver), Aurum (gold), Platinum (not Platina), and Palladium are classified as either ‘Noble’ or a ‘platinum group’ metals. Clustered together in the periodic table, they have very similar electronic and, therefore, chemical properties which leads them to be very closely related homeopathically. However, note, none of these metals is potentized in it pure form. Because they do not exist this way, they all come blended together in their ores and thus, when they are smelted, they all have traces of each other in them. In electronic industry, where high purity is essential, after an extensive purification processes, they still contain each other’s traces. I am sure, homeopathic pharmacies do not obtain highly purified electronic alloys, while in the past those didn’t even exist. Therefore, what we have essentially are alloys, mixes. This is another reason their provings are so similar.
