Reminds me of an article I've read a few days ago:

An interesting look on the "theory" behind homeopathy.

Homeopaths prescribe water, naturopaths prescribe dirty drugs (herbs).

Correct. Homeopath's believe the MORE you dilute a substance, the MORE powerful it becomes. Makes complete sense to me. 😕

And then there's the "Memory of Water" principle which makes even more sense.

They must save pure water for only the most dire cases.

I only learned about what homeopaths do about a year ago and I couldn't believe my ears.

Back in the day though I can see how people thought it worked well because other treatments were dangerous - plus there's the placebo effect.

Apparently you can be a homeopath for pretty cheap? www.homeopathyschool.org/applying.html

We actually had a lecture on alternative medicine in our clinical med class.

The prof sent this vid out the night before and everyone loved it!

Apparently, homeopathy operates under the principle that a ridiculously diluted pathogenic substance, when given to a patient, stimulates an immune response to that substance, thus allowing the patient to eliminate the pathogen efficiently. Therefore, you give them a tiny amt of whatever is causing them harm in order to cure them.

The funny thing is, one of my classmates did the math, and, if i remember correctly, in order to consume one mole of pathogenic substance, you would need to consume more water than would fit in the known universe.

Sometimes I think a trace solution of deadly nightshade or a statistically insignificant quantity of arsenic isn't enough.

how do homeopaths feel about all the trace urine, poo, and nasty chemicals in our drinking water?????
