Rochelle,
ANY remedy can act on ANY part of the system, therefore ANY remedy could act *on* the pineal gland, as you put it.

Are you meaning to ask whether any remedy is known for its AFFINITY to
the pineal gland?

Simon

Even personally , on occasion.

Details of it and other glandular remedies can be found in Dr Y L Agrawal's -- Materia Med of Glandular Remedies.

Homeopathic Melatonin and Serotonin do. W.

Hi Rochelle,

A few years ago I was trying (not very successfully) to better understand Pineal, and here is some material I've saved. Maybe more over the next little while... Note at the end of this one, a list of "associated remedies". (Do post whatever else you find out about the remedy??)

Cheers,
Shannon
