In Defense of Homeopathy10th April 2015
The pharmaceutical lobby is in cohorts with so called researchers.
Opinion byMari Marcel Thekaekara
A recent Outlook blog damns homeopathy as nonsensical, a mere placebo. And the millions who swear by it are susceptible fools, apparently. Adding to the armoury of arguments is a recently released National Health and Medical Research Council of Australia (NHMRC) report concluding "there are no health conditions for which there is reliable evidence that homeopathy is effective". And, "Homeopathy should not be used to treat health conditions that are chronic, serious or could become serious."
Presence of Nanoparticles in Homeopathic Medicines: StudyKOCHI: A research conducted at the Mahatma Gandhi University, Kottayam, has proved that homeopathic medicines contain nanoparticles that are vital for medical treatment. The study conducted by Dr E S Rajendran at the Nano-Science Lab of the university, using ‘Aurum Metallicum (6C to CM potency)’, has conclusively proved that homeopathic dilutions contain nanoparticles.The dilutions were studied under high-resolution transmission electronic microscope (HRTEM) and energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS). “We are in a position to conclusively prove the presence of nanoparticles in all the high dilutions of homeopathic drugs,” Dr Rajendran said at a press conference here on Monday.A similar study by Dr Jayesh Bellare of IIT-B had also demonstrated the presence of nanoparticles in homeopathic medicines. Dr Jayesh is expected to present the report of the study at the two-day World Homeopathy Summit to be held in Mumbai from April 11, 2015. City homoeopath ‘isolates’ HIV virus to treat casesIn a first, the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) has been isolated and processed to treat patients infected with HIV through applied use of homoeopathic science. The research paper, after undergoing clinical trials for its safety and efficacy in Mumbai, was published in the Indian Journal of Research in Homeopathy (IJRH) on March 31. While the medicine, called ‘Nosode’, does not entirely cure HIV patients, the successful trial opens up possibilities of future research in homoeopathy. http://indianexpress.com/article/cities/mumbai/city-homoeopath-isolates-hiv-virus-to-treat-cases/ |
