Homeopathy is a fraud, wake up people

[Mitt Romneys sideburns]

I have up to and including biochem. Comparing homeopathy to chemistry is like comparing the earth to an apple.

Keep trusting what the drug companies tell you.

The original ingredient is no longer in the mixture. How on earth can it cure you of anything?

The human body is made up of various elements. Remember your high school science class when you had to dip a little wooden stick into various solutions and observe the different color flames? Each element has its own frequency, and a combination of elements will have its own frequency; much like an orchestra.

When there is some sort of health challenge, the orchestra in the body is out of tune due to mineral imbalance, viral or bacterial infection or whatever. The prepared remedy with it's charged energy pattern will help reorganize the energy within the organism to deal with the health challenge at hand.

Almost, but you're making it way too complex in all the wrong ways.

uhhh.... no.

but applying chem to "homeopathy" is a great way to figure out what's really goin' on.

first lesson, the most important compounds in the food we eat are often called "inactive."

One of my personal observations: When a new age medicine proponent begins to talk about 'energy' it can be more accurately translated as 'magic.' Example; energy crystals.

Merck is a fraud, wake up people.

Homeopathy does hurt people. They fall for bogus claims instead of seeking out real help.

Every once in a while you see news stories of kids dying because their parents wanted to give them insect piss or something stupid rather than give them actual treatment.

And science "catching up" with ancient remedies? Absolutely ridiculous, your rejection of science and embracing quackery

So, you don't trust homeopathy. Okay. Do you trust modern medicine? I hear about conventional medicine killing people much more often than snake venom remedies. Check out this article if you really want to save people from quackery and bogus claims:

Corruption within the pharmaceutical industry is another beast all together.

What Im talking about here is a fundamental rejection of science in favor of superstition and magic

I take stingy nettle for allergies, along with quercetin.

Thanks for the tip Bubs. I'll give it a try.

I have used homeopathic remedy for years for my children, myself, and my pets. They are gentle and effective and have no harmful side effects. I know that BIG PHARM can't say the same.

If they don't work then why do me, my pets, and babies always get well when they use them? They say there is no placebo effect in babies and animals. BTW I have always been willing to use other meds if they did not get well but I never have had to.

A doctor did spend years developing homeopathic medicine he used the "law of similars" meaning the like cures like. they work on the cellular level promoting antibody production. The dosages don't over whelm the body and are small enough for cells to absorb.

Just because this branch of science does not fit to the make money scheme of the AMA, FDA, and all those other fuckers does not mean it does not work but, you won't know unless you try it will you?

Try no effects at all.

Do you people not understand? Homeopathic remedies follow a dilution system that leaves behind not a single molecule of the ingredient that supposedly even does anything.

Not to mention the concept behind the process is scientifically baseless.

Oh come on, placebos have been used for centuries to help people.

Several things here for Mr. Sideburns and his pet Hypnagogue:

From a purely scientific standpoint, please describe the "weak force" and the "strong force" and tell me that you completely understand theory behind them.
I believe the answer to your "what energy" question will be found therein.

Bloodletting was based on the "science" of the day. Good thing we reexamined that science.

Constituent, you have my attention. Please continue; perhaps I can learn something from you. (See how the scientific method works, M.R.S. and H.G.?)

Sorry MRSB....You don't know what you are talking about. Go ahead and believe what you want to believe

What on earth do strong and weak nuclear force have to do with the claims put forth by homeopathy?

Homeopathy is based on diluting out the harmful effects while retaining the healing properties. How does the water "remember" the "energy patterns" of a chemical substance that is no longer present in the solution?

Please Mitt, don't spoil what as much as 50% of people find helpful.

Remember the passage in "Slaughterhouse Five" where the Tralfamadorians fold their little fingers over their eyes out of embarrassment for Billy Pilgrim?

 

[Anti Federalist]

Hmmm, guess I'm a little confused about what, exactly, "homeopathic" medicine means or is.

If the argument is about the healing healing power of "magic crystals" and internal energy forces, yes, call me skeptic.

If MRS is saying that effective cures and relief from all sorts of ailments can not be found by using poultices, tinctures and oral administration of all sorts of plants, berries, roots and leaves, some of these remedies having been effective for thousands of years, then MRS is nuts.

And in no case would I ever dictate to anybody about what their choices should be in the matter of health care.
