Description
  • Homeopathy is a form of alternative medicine. It
    was created in the 18th century by Samuel
    Hahnemann. The theory behind homeopathy is that
    an ill person can be healed with very small
    amounts of something that produces the symptoms
    of the illness in a healthy person. Scientists
    say that homeopathy does not work and only makes
    people think they feel better (this is called the
    placebo effect.)
  • Homeopaths make their medicines by taking the
    ingredients, adding water, and shaking the
    mixture. They then take a drop of the mixture,
    throw out the rest, and add more water. They do
    this usually 30 times but sometimes up to 200
    times. They call it potentisation. Hahnemann said
    this would bring out the "spirit-like medicinal
    powers held within a drug. Science can show how
    many atoms or molecules - tiny things that cannot
    be divided up any more - of the original
    substance are left in the homeopathic drug. In
    most homeopathic drugs, there is not a molecule
    left of the substance they started out with.
    Homeopaths believe that the solution carries a
    "memory" of the original substance. Science says
    that goes against the laws of physics and
    chemistry.

homeopathy
  • Homeopathy became popular because it was created
    at a time when medicine did not work very well
    and could make people sick.7 Back then, taking
    homeopathy might have kept people from getting
    hurt by bad doctors. However, medicine has
    improved since then, and now helps a lot more
    than it hurts people. Homeopaths have also been
    known to tell their patients not to take
    medicines like antibiotics and vaccines that
    could cure (or keep them from getting) dangerous
    diseases
  • Homeopathic Materia Medica are encyclopedia of
    therapeutic properties of each drug. These
    properties are ascertained through provings also
    known as Homeopathic pathogenetic trials
    (HPT1). As per Samuel Hahnemann in his Organon
    of, homeopathic materia medica is " a collection
    of real, pure, reliable modes of action of simple
    medicinal substances, a volume of book of nature"
    They thus constitute a homeopathic prescribing
    reference guide and sources for compiling
    Homeopathic repertory.3 Earlier materia medicas
    have details regarding the materials and methods
    which may be used to prepare homeopathic
    medicines.
