I grew up with homeopathy. Any time I was sick, my mom would open up this huge book about homeopathy and researched what about my symptoms. Also, when the illness didn't go away or wasn't clear she talked about consulting with an expert on the topic. After learning about the actual process of how globuli is made it took a while for me to accept that it's all just placebo - even though I normally tend to question everything I'm being told. Just goes to show how strong some belief can become ingrained if that's what you grew up with.

It never occurred to me that a reason for homeopathy taking off could be that at a time when the available medicine might be just as likely to kill you as cure you, the homeopathic remedy itself is never going to be more harmful than sugar.

One of the best examples of the transferable placebo effect I observed in my psychology class was the case of a horse that could supposedly do math. By accident, I suppose they mentioned a math problem around a horse that then stamped its foot the number of times that equaled the answer. Obviously they were super excited and kept trying, and the horse kept getting it right. But the horse simply would keep stamping until the owners got visibly excited, at which point he stopped and was rewarded. The only math equation this horse knew was “stomp foot, get treats.”

My mom had a plastic pill case that held a lot of tiny bottles of homeopathy pellets and would give them to me when I was feeling pain or discomfort. I didn’t really believe they were medicine even at that time, but the act of her giving me the homeopathy showed that my mom cared and sympathized for me and I think that made me feel better mentally. Thankfully my mom only used homeopathy for minor stuff like stomach aches or growing pains and took me to the doctor for more serious ailments, so I only have fond memories of homeopathy.

Oh, I hate homeopathy with burning passion. I once got a staphilococcus that kept spreading as my dear mother kept tugging me around healers and fed sugar pills. It got to the point of my eyes welding shut with pus every morning and having actual troubles eating because my lips were crusted with pus and skinless underneath - and I'm pretty sure like half of my mental illnesses come from that experience. Thank god and that one cat for inventing antibiotics and thank my grandma for taking me to an actual doctor. The infection was subdued in like a week after a month of unchecked spreading. Anyways, if I see another homeopathy affictionado I will start swinging - these hands held trust and respect at some point, maybe the trace amounts will be felt.

I love the manner in which you approached this topic. It would be so easy to say something like "Homeopathy is dumb and doesn't work", yet you looked at it with pure facts and considered the pros and cons in a fairly neutral manner. Some members of my family swear by this 'natural cure-all spray' (which I'm almost certain is just tap water), but since the placebo effect of the spray actually helps them, I avoid saying anything about it. However, what's to stop people from re-selling Tic-Tacs and claiming them as anti-cancer pills? There's definitely a 'snake-oil salesman' aspect to this movement which I cannot respect. It's not difficult to profit from the ignorant.

Had bronchitis for 6 years. Took homoeopathic medicine for 1 year and I'd get better during a particular season and then had attack again. It got cured this year when I moved away from Delhi. Turns out it was pollen and pollution causing it. Took me a while to realise the entire situation. Turns out the belief that "I can get better" does wonders. As I'm sure it did in 1800s for people when proven remedies were non existent

@aude.sapere Год назад

In Organon of medicine it's written that the physician should also focus on the cause of disease and he should remove that cause. In your case pollen and bad quality of air was the cause of your bronchitis. The simple point of Hahnemann was that why we drug a person if he can be cured by removing the exciting cause of the disease. If you would have went to an allopath then he would have prescribed you anti allergy, anti inflammatory and medicines which can dilate your bronchi. So removing the exciting cause is better than making your body a dump ground of medicine.

I'm not saying homeopathy/water directly cures or helps anything beyond hydration. What I'm saying is, homeopathics fit a niche that provides actual help to people. It is not a cold remedy. I have seen patients who have been through several chemo plans w/o help, and come back from a vision quest healthy. The positives that come with a positive outlook are undeniable, and plentiful.

What a great video! The use of homeopathy basically comes down to placebo effect, which I feel is often unjustly made fun of. It is a potent effect and a tribute to the powers of the human mind. It is not just making yourself believe that some medicine you're taking is effective, but has much greater implications. There has been a study done on the placebo effect that researched, how patients with headaches respond to aspirin or placebo. Pretty standard procedure, but the researchers went a step further. Instead of leaving the patients doubting whether they got the medicine, they actively told the patients that they were getting a placebo. What is amazing to me is that even though the patients knew they were ingesting an aspirin-free pill, their headaches got better comparable to them not knowing whether they got the placebo or the real deal. Truly astounding with lots of implications for modern therapy.

Homeopathy is so last-gen. I do Pizzapathy now. Every time I have a headache, I eat a pizza tonno and about 1 to 20 hours later, my headaches are gone. Like they never existed. OK, sometimes my headaches get worse. That's how I know that the pizza is actually working, that's the so called initial worsening. But I just eat another pizza tonno and it usually gets better. But you can't just eat pizza tonno, that depends on what pizza type you are. You should get a pizza type consultation done first, to make sure you take the right pizza. With a friend of mine, tonno doesn't work and he has to use cardinale. Also, if a pizza doesn't work for some reason, it's not because the pizza isn't a cure for headaches, it probaby was not stored properly or the store you got it at interrupted the freezing chain. These things should definitely only be handled by professionals and not treated like it was just some foodstuff. Those pizzas are made by a company here called "Dr. Oetker", as you can see in the name, it's been developed by a doctor. Still, therapeutic pizzas are still not covered by medical insurances because of a conspiracy by the pharma corporations who know that nobody would ever touch their expensive pills if people finally realized that all they have to do is eat tasty pizzas! And don't you dare tell me it's just imagination and placebo effect. HE WHO CURES IS RIGHT! (and yes, just in case... this is satire)

@chocolizard678 2 года назад

And don't forget, if you see studies proving pizza doesn't work, don't be fooled. Proof is subjective and about what you experience, not these thousands of not-you people being carefully observed by "impartial" shills 🙃 Your anecdotes about pizza are evidence and your body is the exception to whatever these "studies" say. Anyone who says otherwise hasn't opened their minds yet to how good alternatives like pizza can be. (Also satire ofc).

My parents had a good relation with a Homeopathy Doctor. I too liked him. Whenever I or my brother fell ill, my parents would take me to him. I think the reason behind it was their medicine had sweet sugar balls which could be swallowed easily instead of tablets.I am thankful that my parents atleast completed my vaccinations. Now my father doesn't trust Homeopathy anymore cuz they were not able to cure his disease for months. My father's condition worsen as the months passed and he got himself admitted to a Hospital. He is fine now.

Your father was probably filled with toxins and other poisons and trash that the herbs were fighting against. Some of those instructions given by homeopathy type people are indeed ridiculous but some of them are necessary.

When I was younger I had some kinda of incurable sore throat and none of the medicines available at the time seems to work, the sickness would leave for a short period of time and then just come back again other day, when I started using homeopathic medicines it literally just disappeared, until today I had no clue that homeopathic wasn't a real medicine because it had work so beautifuly with me lol

@butterfly-fy3wz Год назад

It was can confirm The same happened to me on almost 5 occasions

@butterfly-fy3wz Год назад

The comments are majorly idiots who have never read up a word on the topic The problem with such cures is that they are very precises in my study of homeopathy there are several different medications that heal the same illness and you need almost perfect knowladge on the persons past medical history so professionals try trial and error to the closest guesses which is why its considered belief healing The possibility of it hitting the right on is quite low I myself had a ear infection that was so severe the doctor gave me medications that knocked me out cold for almost 40 hours And even after weeks of taking them I still had the infection recurring till I took homeopathy for 2 DAYS and it never returned I also had chronic hives for several months and nothing helped and this normally lasts 5 years and after 2 or 3 trial and error of homeopathy it again cured in 5 days

In a Nutshell screwed up big time on this one. They are presenting placebo as meaning the power of belief or something. This is a big misconception. That is not and has never been the purpose of a placebo win in a test. The placebo wing is there to account for biases and anomalous data. Placebo does not heal and there is no science indicating that it does. This is such a misunderstood part of science.

@Novusod 6 лет назад

A lot of people run to the doctor as soon as they get a cold or flu for which the doctor prescribes antibiotics which do nothing to cure the cold and in the long run may hurt you. Every time someone takes an antibiotic the less effective it will become later on and breeds super bugs. Giving the patient a placebo just to shut them up is a better option.

My mother was having intense pain on her shoulder blade and forearm area. First she consulted a neurosurgeon as this issue came in the past too and she wanted thorough consultation, as she was concerned of the repeating pain. He gave her a series of pain killers which was not at all justifying its name. Then she go for ayurveda and tried the medicines prescribed by the doctor and the pain persisted witb full force. She even thought she is going to die due to the intense pain. Her hand(right) was too stiffen and nerves where protruding enough to be clearly visible. Then she took an xray which show some issues at the intial regions of spine(bones over that region), seems successive vertebral bones wasn't having enough same in between. She thus consulted a spine specialist who diagnosed it as some kind of arithritis and prescribed some neuropathic pain killers which can cause dilation in nerves. She felt some relief but the pain returned soon enough that she start to felt hopeless about recovery. Suddenly we remembered nearby homeo pathy clinic and go for it. Her pain multiplied the next day. She even calldd the doc and cried out her agony. He asked her to keep patience as the medicine is working. Soon her stiffened hand become relaxed, her pain diminished. Those protruding nerves is no more visible. Her hand recovered from that sick look

@pamuhammedyaseen4042 Год назад

Allopathy don't have cure for many diseases other surgical removal pf affected part. For example stones in pancreas got a cure in allopathy as removing pancreas. But ayurveda got cure for it which breaks and removes the stone through urine etc. Also there is a lot of chronic diseases which have excellent cure in allopathy but not in other medical system. Giving allopathy monotonous power is dangerous as the incredible human machine has its own way to tackle diseases which we term as immunity. Homeopathy pampers the human immunity while allopathic medicines more or less hampers it. It takes over the role of immunity, but is necessary during emergency situations. We usually prefer homeopathy in mild lifestyle diseases and may god protect is from drastic ailments and provide us with proper medicines to all those diseases mankind is suffering from.

@pamuhammedyaseen4042 Год назад

Yeah that homeopathic doctor said to practice exercises along with his medicines and continue doing exercises even after his course of medicine finishes. He told it will keep the bones in check avoiding future issues. Also our body should be strong enough during the cure as most of the curing is done by our own body immunity, homeopathic medicines just wakes it up into full force

I saw my cousin got cured from Psoriasis by Homeopathy. He had been suffering for 8 years and finished visiting all of the dermatologists in his reach. All gave him Clobetasol (a potent steroid) in different brand names. Symptoms resolved for a while and came back again. He started taking homeopathy and I laughed at him. I used to believe homeopathy was nothing but a placebo. Three months later he cured completely. He never had a relapses since 2019. I don’t know how he got cured and could persist on the cure with simple Placebo!!!.
