Unfortunately humans are involved in research which usually means some ulterior motive.

I've never used homeopathic medicine but this just came out. Haven't read it yet.

Your articles prove the opposite of your point.
If anything they show we need to be more skeptical about new therapies, not less.
Nowhere is it suggested that there is a conspiracy to disprove alternative medicine, rather it describes the well-known bias for positive results, especially when there are financial conflicts.
Just like with drug companies cooking the books for their pet pharmaceuticals, most trials showing efficacy for alternative techniques are performed by people with an investment in that technique.
And the article about homeopathy - expert opinion is the lowest form of evidence, and a government body in Sweden might not even count as that.
Homeopathy is about the purest form of hokum you can find, and there are no well-controlled, double-blinded randomized studies proving its efficacy. You will get the same effect giving someone water as you would with a 10e-7 dilution of any medicine in water, as long as both practitioner and patient do not know the difference. It's pure placebo effect.
Seriously, you're embarrassing potential future DNPs and discrediting the very degree you're trying to promote.
