Earlier, some restrictions in diet like onion, coffee, garlic, asafetida, tobacco etc. and many other strong smelling items in diet used to be advised in Homoeopathy. Homoeopathy is an evolving system of healing and during the last so many years it has been seen that those patients who did not follow the advised dietary restrictions improved with well selected homoeopathic treatment equally as those who did. But in certain cases, very few dietary restrictions may be advised that too totally based on the disease of the patient.

Moreover, homoeopathic physician try to reduce the dependence of the patients on such harmful stimulants with the well selected remedy.
