"when used in the place of proven medicine, homeopathy can be dangerous"
In 1700's, Samuel Hahnemann developed:
1. "law of similars" = symptoms of disease can be cured by small amounts of "medication" that produce actual symptoms in large amounts. u wot?
2. "law of infinitesimals" = The smaller the dose, the more powerful the effect. Unsurprisingly, he found that the greater the dilution, the lesser the side-effects. REALLY, REALLY, REALLY?
Hahnemann recommended 200 dilutions, which funnily enough is beyond the dilution limit of the entire visible universe. Therefore homeopathic remedy is ordinary water. Many homeopathic remedies contain NO detectable amount of active ingredient. Placebo effects can be powerful
Unlike normal drugs, homeopathic remedies have not been proven effective against disease by double-blind clinical testing. Buenaviste's 1988 article in Nature is famously quoted, but widespread criticism is not mentioned by magicians. results could not be replicated.
If someone claimed that they could prevent or treat a life-threatening disease and charged you �150 per litre for water to do the job, would you waste your time + health? Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia is research from 1800s. It does NOT identify the symptoms or diseases for which products should be used; that is decided by the practitioner ofcourse. And magic comes at a price. (���������).
Make your own fraud. Fill some tap water and put it into small bottles.
Vaccines against Hepatitis B and Meningococcal Disease....
(Note misspelling of "meningococcal.") These preparations have been made by taking 1% of "magic" and 99% water or alcohol...taking 1% of that and repeating this process 200 times.
The final product should contain 1X10-450% of active ingredient.
In the REAL UNIVERSE (in which most of us live), if 25 millilitres of water contained only one molecule of the active ingredient, the percentage SHOULD be
1.2X10-22%.
Think carefully the next time someone tries to steal your money by selling you some homeopathic magic .
