Real is scientific homeopathy. Small doses of evidence-based modern homeopathy medicine brings big results for everyone

Oh yes, but pharmaceuticals have such reliable and truthful evidence to support their use!

Seroxat is surely safe vs. herbs!

But who funds the "reliable and truthful" evidence-based research? Could it be pharmaceutical companies themselves?? I wonder...
Seroxat has been linked to incidents of suicide in patient's with mood disorders, so how safe can it be?

LF Velez said...

Did we say anything about safety? Distilled water, even with minute impurities or memories of molecules past, is generally safe. That's not the point that's being argued....

Of course the evidence backing up pharmaceuticals is paid for by the company who wants the data to promote profit for their drug sales; small minute particles in bottled water or the leeching of plastic into the water is a minor example that doesn't even come close to the corruption that backs the so-called evidence promoting the use of a drug (for example) GSK's Seroxat as 'risk outweighs the benefit'. Or, Seroquel is weight neutral!

Safety IS part of the point, because chemicals change body metabolism, can cause withdrawals and permanently injure/damage.

To call natural remedies witchcraft is reckless and plain idiotic!
