Would you treat a child�s cold with strychnine?
I was in the pharmacy section of my local grocery store last
week, looking for childrens ibuprofen, when I stumbled upon
Childrens ColdCalm, a homeopathic product from Boiron.
Homeopathic cure of an obese patient
A 27 yr old engineer, 1.84 m tall, suffering from obesity and
overweight, weighing 140 kg, due to high calorie diet instigated
by his parents during his infancy and childhood, and lack of
will to stop eating. He visited the author on September 19th
2008.
Life coach uses power of positive thinking
Maslan became deeply involved in homeopathy, a natural
alternative medical system. As she met with clients, she saw
they were looking for healing in other areas of their lives, she
said, so several years ago she began offering one-on-one
counseling.
FDA gives maker of Zicam new warning
Two years after a safety letter prompted a Scottsdale-based
company to recall its Zicam nasal spray, federal regulators this
month warned that two other Zicam products are inappropriately
sold as homeopathic drugs because they include vitamin C.
David Freedman responds to criticism of his CAM apologia
The other day, I expressed my displeasure at an article
published in The Atlantic that, boiled down to its essence, was
one long apologia for unscientific "complementary and
alternative medicine" CAM and "integrative medicine" IM. Yes, I
was quite critical, but, I believe, not unfairly so. Not
surprisingly, however, the author of the article, David H.
Freedman, was quite displeased, so much so that he actually
showed up in my comments to take me to task. He didn't just take
me to task, though. He took all of you to task, as well, at
least those of you who piled on. Unfortunately, his arguments in
his comment were even worse than the arguments he laid down in
his actual article. Let's take a look.
Fix or Fraud?
Is alternative medicine really ready to claim a place in the
mainstream? And what does the popularity of alternative
treatments tell us about the weaknesses of modern medicine? To
answer these questions, we asked seven leaders in the field as
well as vocal skeptics to comment on Freedman's essay. Well be
posting one response each day over the next couple of weeks.
Daughter's plight prompts Blackburn mum to write a book
Weve given her alternative therapies such as homeopathy and
cranial sacral therapy. After the first treatment she went down
to five to 10 seizures a day. They last about a second now and
they are not impacting on her school life so much.
Pool of candidates running for office thins because of harassing tactics
The bill, Senate Bill 412, which passed the Senate only to die
when legislators failed to make a deadline in the Assembly,
would have brought other fringe or dubious healthcare practices
under the same kind of regulation as homeopathy.
Free homeopathy treatment camp
Anticipating an outbreak of vector-borne diseases with the
advent of monsoon, Nandi Homeopathy Clinic is organising a free
homeopathy health check up and treatment camp on June 19.
How To Treat Your Dog Homeopathically
If you are interested in treating your dog with homeopathic
methods, understand that it is a type of treatment that works as
a cure, sort of like medicine. It will induce certain symptoms
into the healthy body and cure some illnesses in an unhealthy
body. It works by stimulating the immune system so that it
fights the underlying condition.
The Triumph of New-Age Medicine
Medicine has long decried acupuncture, homeopathy, and the like
as dangerous nonsense that preys on the gullible. Again and
again, carefully controlled studies have shown alternative
medicine to work no better than a placebo. But now many doctors
admit that alternative medicine often seems to do a better job
of making patients well, and at a much lower cost, than
mainstream careand theyre trying to learn from it.
Matrixx Faces More Legal Issues
Although some ingredients in the RapidMelts Vitamin C products
zincum aceticum, zincum gluconicum, and Echinacea are
established homeopathic active ingredients included in the HPUS,
vitamin C ascorbic acid is not a recognized active ingredient in
the HPUS or any of the addenda or supplements.
