Homeopathy put to the test (yet again)

And yet again.. (surprise surprise) it fails. But in any case, for those who are not entirely familiar with the wackiness of homeopathy, this video from a BBC report does a pretty good job of explaining how worthless and downright idiotic the concept is. (Yes I said idiotic. Yes that’s insulting. But it’s also true) For the rest of us it’s still good for some useful arguments and a daily dose of sanity.
Unfortunately despite the fact that there have been some rather informative reports in the media, homeopathy continues to be popular in Brittan. It also seems to be coming back into vogue in the US. Not that it ever left. But homeopathy is the sort of thing which is best fought with information. Once you know what it is, it’s actually not hard to realize why it’s so useless. (and so profitable)

I have often wondered: is belief in this sort of nonsense, and here I include not only quack medicine, but also the automotive and stereo ‘performance enhancing’ snake oil, and crackpot religious ideas a symptom of simple stupidity among the believers, or is something deeper going on here?

Well I do think a big part of the reason homeopathy sells is ignorance. I’m not saying that means stupidity. I didn’t know what homeopathy meant for a while and most people I talk to think it means “herbal” or “traditional.” That is probably how 95% of the sales are generated: it depends on the fact that people don’t even know what it means and if they did they’d immediately realize how illogical the idea is.
But then there are the true homeopaths who totally believe in it. Some might be practitioners and therefore have a vested interest in it. Others might just have used it or invested their health and money in products and it’s very hard to sometimes admit one is wrong.
There’s something about the placebo effect that makes people not want to admit they “fell” for it. Example might be one of those stupid “blocks” that is supposed to “absorb EMF” from a stereo. Someone swears it sounds better with the “EMF Absorber brick” and if you refute it with science they’ll maintain that there is something to it because they don’t want to admit that they have been “had” by the placebo effect.
It’s an odd thing, but people are very unsettled by the idea that they might not see the world as it is or that they might have been taken by suggestion.

I’ve a darker hypothesis.
I suspect that there is a undercurrent of rebellion against those whose skills and knowledge (scientists, engineers, physicians, and other experts) make these fools realize just how little they know and thus how little real control the have over their miserable little lives. Their behavior being just the logical extension of the ill treatment that they handed out to the smart kids when they were in school.
You see now that these ‘nerds’, ‘geeks’, or what ever cannot be dealt with by ostracizing them, they are forced to use other methods of compensation. As evidence note that all of these idiotic ideas thrive among the intellectually dispossessed best when they are criticized by experts.

Well, the thing about homeopathy that I’ve always kinda “liked.” Is that it does not really require a lot of scientific knowledge to realize it’s bull. It’s very baisis is counter logical and counter intuitive.
There are things in science that are true but counter-intuitive or would seem to not be what you’d expect on first glance: Circular motion is acceleration inward. Light can be a particle and a wave. Time is not constant. There is no centrifugal “force”
But homeopathy is not one of these. You can look at in the simplest way and apply some basic logic or thought experiments and realize how baisless it is. It doesn’t make sense. The implications are ridiculous.
You can look at it in a chemical sense or a medical sense or just try to look at it with a clear logical mind and deduce the implications or the logic behind it. Either way it falls apart.
I’ve said before “it seems so stupid because it is so stupid.” and if “You might think that sounds idiotic. Well this is because it is indeed idiotic”
Yeah I get the whole “That’s name calling” or “You should be respectful and attack the message…”
Well look… I do attack the message on technical and scientific grounds too. But I call it stupid because that’s what it is. And I don’t think it deserves respect. I have no problem pointing and laughing at how stupid it is because it deserves it.
This guy takes two videos to explain (nothing) about homeopathy: http://www.youtube.com/user/Bandershot
It’s stupid and based on ignorance and obscufucation. I like calling it idiotic because I’d love to see it get a stigma of being idiotic. It deserves it and that seems to be one of the best ways to effectively counter bad science in the public. The day the phrase “Crap that was a dumb thing to do. What the hell are you, some kind of homeopath?” becomes common, then that will help a lot drive it at least to the fringe..

Here is one simple and open statement for all those who are against homeopathy. You could be individual / organization, patient / doctor. Can you honestly give one single reason to be against homeopathy. I said honestly. If you are honest with no prejudice and have patient’s welfare as topmost priority, if you do not have any selfish motive, can you then give single reason to be against homeopathy. I invite you to write about ‘your’ reason. I will explain how ignorance has fooled you. If you honestly believe in welfare of patients and humanity you can not have any reason to be against homeopathy. That is my challenge. One thing is said about homeopathy that it is not scientific. On what basis you can say that. Around the world its results can be verified. And what is scientific. FIRST RULE OF SCIENCE IS NOT TO ACCEPT OR REJECT ANYTHING WITHOUT FACTS. But unfortunately all those so called scientific people start talking about homeopathy without knowing ABC of homeopathy.That shows that it is not logic but some other motive that drives them to talk about homeopathy. Learn the basics of homeopathy, see its result then say anything. You will only be delighted by its wonderful results. If you have doubt, ask me, I will tell you how it works. Homeopathy is a blessing for mankind. Do not try to kill it because of your selfish motive or ignorance. It will be a crime against humanity. A big Crime.

Those who oppose homeopathy are, in my experience, very well versed in the facts. Homeopathy is better understood by the skeptics than the homeopaths in most circumstances.
Homeopathy should be killed because it is wrong to defraud people who are ill. It is even more wrong to steer them away from medicine which does work or to confuse them with false promises. The first rile of science is indeed not to accept or reject without the facts, but we have them and it’s been tested again and again.
Giving something to somebody which makes them feel better by the placebo effect is wrong. Feeling better is not being better. And your symptoms might *seem* better, but you’ll never cure a disease with a treatment that does not work. Homeopathy does not work. Simple as that and we have the facts.

In response to Dr Sharma, I can give you one single, honest reason to be against Homeopathy – it is quackery. Will that do?
One of the most effective articles on why homeopathy is bad is written by Dr. Ben Goldacre – read it, it is all there – the history, the facts, the arguments:
http://www.badscience.net/2007/11/a-kind-of-magic/
If you truly believe that homeopathy is real, head on over to http://www.randi.org and sign up for the challenge. You might win $1,000,000 dollars for your efforts if you can prove in a controlled test that homeopathy is any more effective than a placebo.

Sunil, I am becoming a little tired of the fringe telling us what science is and what it operates
Science is not a court of law, it is not required to accept pleas from all comers, its practitioners are not obligated to prove or disprove every random hypothesis brought before it. It is a method, a set of protocols if you will by which the framer of a hypothesis may present his or her proof to the scientific community, and the onus is on the one bringing that proof to make sure that it is sufficient. If it is rejected, again the onus is on the one bringing the idea forward to supply an airtight argument.
The bottom line is that we do not need, or are we required to prove or disprove your ideas, thus your statement that the first rule of science is not to reject anything without facts is patently wrong.
Of all the ‘First Rule of Science” statements I have heard (and there are many out there) the one that I like best is by the late, great Richard Feynman:
“The first rule of science is that you must not fool yourself–and you are the easiest person to fool.”

DV8XL: Even if the first rule of science is to not reject or accept without evidence, the thing is we have the evidence and it all falls on one side. We do not need to prove or disprove any ideas because they have already been disproven to death!
We do not need to accept pleas from all practitioners, this is true. However, the plea of homeopathy was actually considered more than a few times. The jury is not “out” on this. The Jury has come back and found homeopathy guilty on all counts of bad science REPEATEDLY. Furthermore, the judgement has been appealed and every appelet court of science (metaphorically speaking) has issues the same decision.
And for 4thwave. First science is not about “belief” it is about accepting well proven and tested facts. Maybe that’s a judgment call in some cases, but how much more do you need to be convinced?
Does the fact that homeopathy has never been proven cut it?
What about that it’s based on a ridiculous and counter-logical premise?
What about the fact that it’s been repeatedly tested and found to be ineffective?
What about the fact that it does not have any mechanism to make it work which has even been established to exist?
What about the fact that it does as well as the placebo effect would be expected?
What about the fact that it does not work in statistical studies?
What about the fact that it does not work in laboratory studies?
What about the fact that every major and respected body which has looked into it has come to the same conclusion?
Any one of these maybe you could make the case that it works, but honestly… can you even compelling of more compelling reasons to think something is not so?

Nope. Totally understood, DV8XL. But one must be careful with homeopaths not to throw them even the slightest chance to obfuscate, because obfuscate they will. Seriously. I think Tittles has the right idea. Say it simple and over and over and hope they get it

One thing is for sure that those who are against homeopathy have one of following
- Some selfish motive to do so and not looking for welfare of mankind
- total ignorance and never read homeopathy
Search your inner core you will sure have one of these.
Now I will answer your (ignorant) questions
Does the fact that homeopathy has never been proven cut it?
Homeopathy has been proven to work in clinics and research studies. If you do not want to read, its your choice.
What about that it’s based on a ridiculous and counter-logical premise?
Noway, it is more logical than any other science. Infact it has principles for every action of physician.
What about the fact that it’s been repeatedly tested and found to be ineffective?
It is ‘repeatedly’ tested by allopaths who do not know abc of homeopathy so if they failed, no wonder.
What about the fact that it does not have any mechanism to make it work which has even been established to exist?
It has well established working system. It is available for you to read and understand. You have to drop prejudice.
What about the fact that it does as well as the placebo effect would be expected?
Thanks for this question. If it is true it can not I repeat can not treat even a single case. Someone wrote about feeling good. My dear it has removed pathological changes. That cant be ‘psychological’.
What about the fact that it does not work in statistical studies?
Again if studies does not include its principles and give medicines in haphazard manner, you can not blame it. Those who conducted studies were not aware of its principles.
What about the fact that it does not work in laboratory studies?
You info is old. Now homeopathic medicines have been shown to work. And thank God for that.
What about the fact that every major and respected body which has looked into it has come to the same conclusion?
Again thanks for question. I challenge that all those respected bodies have studied only on allopathic grounds. Yes if you do not understand homeopathy principles, you cant succeed. Howsoever major and respected body you may be.
Now read this. Homeopathy has not fooled anybody. Again it is not matter of fighting between homeopathy and allopathy. Both have their own utility. Those who are wellwisher of humanity will say that OK lets have coordination between two therapies. Allopathy is not 100 % successful. When it fails do you say its useless. If allopathy is so succesful than why is there so much of suffering around the world even in developed nations. Infact no therapy is complete. So doctors instead of ego problem and selfish motive must try to coordinate and see how best they can help patients. Proofs of homeopathy are abundant but you have to be out of prejudice. I am not a blind follower of homeopathy but I know that it can help those who are suffering so I will always fight for it.

>>- Some selfish motive to do so and not looking for welfare of mankind
No, certainly not. I’ve written a lot about my hope for a more enlightened mankind as well as better education. “Selfish” I suppose gets equated to me owning stock in, being employed by or somehow being paid by drug companies. This is a common accusation I’ve gotten before. None of this is true.
>>- total ignorance and never read homeopathy
Well I’d like to think I know more about it than most as I’ve done some research, but I suppose I don’t have a degree in it. But I certainly know the pillars and the theory behind it.
>>Search your inner core you will sure have one of these.
Searching searching searching… newp
>>Now I will answer your (ignorant) questions
Yeah… I’ll have to wait till tomorrow to deal with that. It might deserve it’s own post.

Dr. Sharma, could you answer this simple question: How many NaCl molecules (or Na and Cl atoms) are contained in a cubic centimeter of Nat Mur 30C?
If you actually passed your chemistry and mathematics course you would be able to come up a number. Show us you are not grossly incompetent by doing the calucalations. Thank you.

Although I concede it has placebo benefits. An imaginary cure for sad old hypochondriacs. Let’s just hope they don’t get cancer, eh ‘doc’?

what great scientific minded people. You do not want to read about homeopathic research. You dont want to see its results. You dont want to read clinical studies. You dont want to see its efficacy by using it. And you have scientific mind. Scientific mind is not blind. It is ready to think explore challenge observe and also must have honesty to accept truth. Alas all this is missing in so called scientific people. Homeopathy told more than 200 years ago about psychosomatic disease, about lifestyle induced diseases about beginning of disease much before its appearance clinically. All this science accept today. For more than 200 years humanity suffered because of dumb people like you ( or dishonest). Be blind but know that humanity is still suffering because of people like you. Homeopaths are honest to say that yes no science is perfect and humanity needs both. You must read about Dr C Hering who was designated to denounce homeopathy, he read it used it and became a true follower of it. Because he had the honesty and guts to question. You too can study and understand. But only if you have honesty and guts. And yes dont talk about honesty and competence, you are exposing your own self. It stinks.

You are a rather repetitive person, except when it comes actually answering questions. You posted the same drivel in Orac’s blog at http://scienceblogs.com/insolence/2007/12/pity_the_poor_uk_homeopath.php#comment-668946 …
It is obvious you never searched Orac’s blog for his takedown of some very questionable homeopathic studies. I’ve also read several and noticed they were done sloppily and sometimes even fraudulently (the one in Vienna included a lopsided group, the put the sicker people in the “placebo” group, but they all still received real medical care).
Constantine Hering DIED in 1880. There is no way he could have a comment on modern medicine. It is not like he would know much about viruses, antibiotics or insulin. Your appeal to authority has turned to dust.
You have also failed to answer some very basic questions. I shall repeat the ones I posted on Orac’s blog (which includes one stolen from JREF):
1) How many molecules of NaCl (or sodium and chlorine atoms) are in one cubic centimeter of Nat Mur 30C?
2) Please come up with one incontrovertible example with references of homeopathy curing a non-self limiting condition.
3) Please explain how diseases discussed by Hahnemann in his Organon are now treated. Examples of these included syphilis and gonorrhea.
4) Please tell us what advances homeopathy has made over the last two centuries. Tell us which conditions have been improved, decreased or wiped out by homeopathy. Examples of these for real medicine include smallpox, rickets, measles, Scarlet fever, polio, diabetes, Hanson’s Disease and non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.

I have yet to see a single study which validates homeopathy and which is well documented, controlled and of a significant scale and depth. Every study I have seen that claims to “prove” homeopathy is either founded on some very flawed science (such as subjective analysis with no control or placebo) or simply refuses to provide the data for validation.
I would love to see a well grounded large scale study using valid scientific methodology provided. Does one exist? I hear a lot of vague references to them, but nobody ever seems to be able to provide the original study.

Such people are not new. They keep ignoring facts. But thank God all are not blind like them. Homeopathy is getting officially recognized even in USA & Canada as healing therapy.
http://www.boiron.com/en/htm/homeopathy-today/homeopathy-regulation.htm
and what, are they talking about research. This article tells why Columbia university is forming RESEARCH alliance with Dr Bannerjee
Dr. Pathak’s six year research on cancer cell lines has established on a cellular and molecular level the reasons why and how Dr. Banerji’s Ruta extracts work in putting the intracranial glioma tumors into remission. The primary effect of this particularly diluted solution is to immediately strengthen the chromosomal DNA segments called the Telomeres.
Pathak explains that the Telomeric portions act like the gate keepers or, body guards of the Chromosomal DNA, to which they are normally attached like end-caps. If these Telomeres are weakened by intrinsic or, other extraneous harmful causes, they can no longer protect the chromosomes. These weakened and broken chromosomes then abnormally join with each other, thus, forming new types abnormal cells which either die or, start to multiply. The later event gives rise to tumors and cancerous growths. These cancerous cells are usually treated with removal surgery and followed by Chemo and Radiation therapies by modern oncologists in a hospital environment.
Unlike Chemo and Radiation therapies which indiscriminately kill normal cells, bone marrow cells along with the cancer cells, the Ruta treatment acts quite differently. Once the Telomeres cells are strengthened by the Ruta the body’s own defense mechanism takes over and attacks not only the anomalous intracranial glioma growths but seems also to induce healthy cell divisions in the normal blood. This makes the patients recover their strength and feel healthier very quickly. While this technique showed various grades of positive in-vitro (In test tubes) results on many other types of human and mouse cancers, according to Pathak, the best results were seen on the human intracranial glioma.
Are you still counting molecules ??

Dr. Sharma wrote “Such people are not new. They keep ignoring facts. But thank God all are not blind like them. “
What facts? You have failed to present any. It” would help if you answer this question (stolen from Gimpy’s blog at http://gimpyblog.wordpress.com/ ): “Do you think that homeopathy can be used to cure non-self limiting conditions, if so could you provide an example of one, you only need one, incontrovertible example, with references, of homeopathy curing a non-self-limiting condition?”
Also, by the Hammer of Thor… Which “God”?
Boiron is a pharmaceutical company selling sugar water. Why should that give it any credence?
Also I checked on Columbia University’s website. There was no link to your Bannerjee (5 links, mostly to do with poetry and economics, which is a good thing — they keep sending my son stuff hoping he will study engineering with them).
If there is really any good research in cancer and homeopathy there would be replicated studies will papers to reference. Not nice little homilies from Pathak. Do you have PubMed links?
Yes, I am still counting molecules. I am also counting how many times you REFUSE to answer questions.
I am also counting your lies. Do you want to remedy that situation by providing REAL evidence?
Oh, and Constatine Hering is still dead, just like he has been for over 120 years.

Very sorry my dear friends. I did not know I have to take your permission before redoing my website. Please tell me the procedure, I will follow. BTW My site is being redone and will be up soon.
Whatever I am doing is all legally, morally, professionally correct.. I am not fooling and denying humanity of safe healing therapy. I keep patient interest over any false conviction. I am not advocating one therapy over other sir. And I do not need any certificate of character or competency from you sir. As I said the more you do personal attacks the more you expose your inner frustration of trying to speak against truth. That’s what. Face the truth, you will get inner peace.
You fail to understand I am not praising or proving myself. My fight here is not for myself but for homeopathy which can heal (and already healing) crores of people. And yes if one ‘incompetent’ person like me can heal so much of suffering what wonders will happen if great ‘competent’ people like you practice homeopathy. That would be great for humanity.
And what did you say that homeopathic medicines are allowed only for ‘self limiting conditions’ This again tells how casually you take people’s health. Are you trying to say that allopathic medicines are incapable of treating even self limiting conditions? Why do you need homeopathic medicines for these ‘self limiting conditions’ Again I would say no, we respect both therapies and both in their own capacity are required to relieve suffering of people. And do not talk so casually about self limiting conditions. Even they cause suffering. Human body is not merely collection of few organs. If a person repeatedly gets affected by so called self limiting condition, it affects health. And you are not unaware of excessive use of antibiotics, antihistaminics, painkillers, and of course iatrogenic diseases.
I am not running away it is you who is running away from facts. You just ignore and deny my questions. In fact you have you have amazing denial capacity.
I have answered all your questions but you ignored or denied. And about your favorite question on molecules, I am sorry to note that so called scientific minded people are stuck on one single aspect. They have lost all logic, reasoning, all ability to think and explore. That’s where Hahnemann was a great scientist, yes more than 200 years ago he could reason and observe which you are not able to do today. Human mind is much more than a calculator. And whenever you talk about my incompetence you confirm that you have no knowledge of human mind I once again prove your denial mode..
I write about homeopathic working methodology
You deny.
I quote about its research.
You deny
I write about its successful cases
You deny
I quote about its clinical studies
You deny
I write how it talked about psychosomatic, lifestyle induced conditions and about starting of disease process much before it become clinically apparent more than 200 years ago.
You deny
I quote about its growing recognition around the world.
You deny.
I quote about its research tie up with Columbia university
You deny
I ask you to study it yourself and confirm results. (Hering died more than 100 years ago but he proved that if you honestly study and practice homeopathy, you can repeat its results every time. Yes every time.
You deny.
I write about the likely errors committed while allopaths conducted research on homeopathy (you think that research is reputed whose researchers were not knowing how to apply homeopathy)
You deny
When I came here I thought these are few people who are not aware about homeopathy or have met some homeopath who is giving homeopathy without carefully studying and individualizing the case. But no, here are people who are blind to facts & logic. They have prejudice to only speak against homeopathy and curse people associated with homeopathy. I don’t blame them. It is their inability to face truth. They are shouting evidence evidence and when they see evidence they deny.
I request all of you, if you are really honest and have scientific aptitude, please read it sincerely and use it to see its wonderful results yourself. I know for some of you it will be difficult to understand but I will not challenge your IQ or competency. I will say try with honesty and sincerity and you will sure understand it. Or visit some qualified homeopathic to ask about its working. But if you only wish to talk bad about homeopathy and homeopaths, keep doing that. People need quality health and are moving towards holistic health. Natural therapies like homeopathy are helping people around the world. That’s a truth and truth can not be denied.

Ps. Homeopathy is not holistic at all. “Holistic” is a vague term which basically is said to mean “treat the whole patient not just the symptoms.” Homeopathy is always concerned with the narrow symptoms observed and intends to treat them based on a preexisting formula for said symptoms. Hence, it is not even lose to “holistic” and is actually directly exclusive of it.
