2014, A Bad Year For Homoeopathy
http://www.iflscience.com/health-and-medicine/2014-bad-year-homoeopathy
“Homoeopathy is based on two principles “like cures like” and extreme dilution, in most cases to levels so dilute that there is almost no chance of a single remaining molecule of original compound being present in the remedy. ”

Should doctors recommend homeopathy?
http://www.bmj.com/content/351/bmj.h3735
“Of all the major forms of complementary medicine, homeopathy is the most misunderstood. Based on the concept of “treating like with like,” homeopathy originated with the German physician Samuel Hahnemann.”

    Homeopathy really works don’t believe in these paid reviews by big pharma companies… believe in yoga+ayurveda+homeopathy…these r future… allopathy has no remedy it has only costly treatment that too no permanent cure only prolong life for few more years.



  2. salluri jyothsna on July 6, 2021 at 12:41 am

    Which is better to study homeopathy/ayurvedic…



  3. Boss 313 on July 6, 2021 at 12:41 am

    The dumb people in the mode run technological world have forgot that civilisations throughout human history have relied on homeopathic remedies to ease and cure their ailments?

    Just because it may not be a quick fix it’s not medicine.

    People have been brainwashed to the extent that they find it difficult to conceive a pre penicillin society/allopathic age!

    Ignorance at its finest



  4. Carnbyarst on July 6, 2021 at 12:43 am

    Update. In 2017 NHS said it would no longer fund homeopathy. Even so, some doctors are still prescribing it, in 2020 £16000 was still spent on homeopathy..



  5. Sangram Hirmukhe on July 6, 2021 at 12:44 am

    If homoeopathy is placebo then how its working on infants and little kid, because you can not convence them?

    Who cares what incests think about it or not



  9. kiernan thomas on July 6, 2021 at 12:50 am

    It is used on animals and infants and sometimes even plants.



  10. Minhaj on July 6, 2021 at 12:55 am

    HOMEOPATHY WORKS ONLY IF A DISEASE IS HEALING. Possibly through placebo effect.

    If you treat a headache with homeopathic pills, you recover within 4 days, if you don’t treat headache, you will automatically heal in 5 days.

    If you treat cancer with homeopathic pills, the patient dies, if you don’t treat cancer, the patient dies.

    This is how homepathy works. Its the truth.



  11. John G on July 6, 2021 at 12:57 am

    So homeopathy is just the process and the extreme dilution of a proven active ingredient?

    A while back ago I bought some elderberry tablets targeted for cold and flu. They were labeled as homeopathic, but back then I didn’t even know what that meant, what it was, nor did I care (I still don’t). So I’m not even a homeopathy fan or supporter, or consumer of homeopathy products. But I swear by these pills! First sign of a sore throat, take one, I swear within an hour sore throat is gone.

    I think those university and scientist should invent more modern technology to prove it. Like recently nanotechnology invented.. Likewise need more modern technology…. And need to learn more about homeopathy



  14. Márton Magyar on July 6, 2021 at 12:58 am

    Nobody cares what we think. What anyone should care about is what the truth is.



  15. Lili Albe on July 6, 2021 at 12:58 am

    hocus-pocus is not real science



  16. Hrithik Bagade on July 6, 2021 at 12:58 am

    As if the medicines made by pharma companies are great – many cause allergies, reactions, even death in some patients? Many doctors and hospitals mislead patients to make money.. so I dunno what’s more hocus pocus!?



  17. Sanatan Hinduism on July 6, 2021 at 12:59 am

    Ayurveda is best



  18. Petak Zametak on July 6, 2021 at 1:01 am

    hey ,if anyone else needs to find out about getting over depression try Tarbally Destroy Depression Tactics (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my brother in law got amazing success with it.



  19. sky on July 6, 2021 at 1:02 am

    People must be bored watching things just to criticize . when modern medicine and all the doctors can’t help you and you actually get even worse that s when you try alternative medicine . physic (energy) comes before chemistry in the nature and modern medicine does the opposite to heal



  20. Tanya Bishop on July 6, 2021 at 1:03 am

    The US only says that Homeopathy does not work because BIG PHARMA is making money charging $80 a pill.

    Scientific conclusions.

    “The principles of homeopathy contradict known chemical, physical and biological laws and persuasive scientific trials proving its effectiveness are not available”

    Russian Academy of Sciences, Russia

    “Homeopathy should not be used to treat health conditions that are chronic, serious, or could become serious. People who choose homeopathy may put their health at risk if they reject or delay treatments for which there is good evidence for safety and effectiveness.”

    National Health and Medical Research Council, Australia

    “These products are not supported by scientific evidence.”

    Health Canada, Canada

    “Homeopathic remedies don’t meet the criteria of evidence based medicine.”

    Hungarian Academy of Sciences, Hungary

    “The incorporation of anthroposophical and homeopathic products in the Swedish directive on medicinal products would run counter to several of the fundamental principles regarding medicinal products and evidence-based medicine.”

    Swedish Academy of Sciences, Sweden

    “We recommend parents and caregivers not give homeopathic teething tablets and gels to children and seek advice from their health care professional for safe alternatives.”

    Food and Drug Administration, USA

    “There is little evidence to support homeopathy as an effective treatment for any specific condition”

    National Centre for Complementary and Integrative Health, USA

    “There is no good-quality evidence that homeopathy is effective as a treatment for any health condition”

    National Health Service, UK

    “Homeopathic remedies perform no better than placebos, and that the principles on which homeopathy is based are “scientifically implausible””

    House of Commons Science and Technology Committee, UK

  26. AKHIL on July 6, 2021 at 1:18 am

    Great video, but I came here for a solid answer instead you gave me a homework on homeopathy.



  27. Jim Butler on July 6, 2021 at 1:20 am

    Homeopathy is a rigorous scientific field of study dedicated to the use of the placebo effect.



  28. Jayesh Venugopal on July 6, 2021 at 1:20 am

    Try 1mg of LSD. That’s what happened the first time someone found out how potent it can be.

    This fight against homeothopy such as this channel is funded by atheist richard dawkins organization.



  36. Darius Lembert on July 6, 2021 at 1:26 am

    You have forgotten the studies done by the Swiss government that concluded that in fact homeopathy is effective. I know it and many people know it as well because we experienced the cure from it many times. Do your homework sweetie.



  37. Shubham Patil on July 6, 2021 at 1:29 am

    Homeopathy was discovered by a father for his daughter.when Dr.hannemans young daughter was ill he couldn’t see her in pain due to barbaric allopathic practice of painful treatment.so he discovered homeopathy how can a dad make a fake thing to bring out his daughter from pain???



  38. king bing on July 6, 2021 at 1:30 am

    Fun fact: placebo works only with homeopathy, and with no other kind of medicines.

    Homeopathy is such BS



  41. munish M on July 6, 2021 at 1:35 am

    Her pronunciation of dilutions sounds like delusion.



  42. Political Marketing on July 6, 2021 at 1:37 am

    Homeopathy is treating and curing more paients than allopathy cured diseases. Anyone reading this, please note my words carefully. Allopathy treats the disease but it does loose sight of the patient. In the process of treating the disease, the accumulative drug overdose kills the patient. Please re-read. You will see that I did not say, allopathy treats or cures the patient. I said it only treats the disease. On the other hand homeopathy treats and cures the patient. Homeopathy does not have side effects and dose cumulative effects over time.



  43. Tok Balam on July 6, 2021 at 1:37 am

    Homeopathy is completely cure thousands of diseases and have most effective medicine property in theirs drugs.. Thats why millions of doctors and people are taking homeopathy medicine and they are completely cure by it…their are completely pure sceince.. .only the allopathy doctors and theirs puppet scientists are jeleousy of it. Coz theirs billion of money will be ruined… But one day allopathy doctors will realise this discrimination..
