Raw oxygen and smoking would be a good combination.....

Depends what they mean by RAW water, this precious and life aving resource has been screwed around with for far too long in the name of 'Profit'.
In the area where I live the stuff that comes out of the tap is horrible and long discussions with the responsible water engineers reveal things won't improve anytme soon.

"At best homeopathy offers a placebo benefit which could be provided by anything else the patient believes will work."

The placebo effect is proven to work. It works in part because of the status of the doctor. Additionally, there is no negative side effect when administering homeopathy (water).

I really can't see a problem with homeopathy even if it is just a way for doctors to prescribe placebos.

I think a holistic view of medicine has a place alongside a mechanistic approach. Homeopathy haters seem to accept a mechanistic approach only.


"The placebo effect is proven to work. It works in part because of the status of the doctor. Additionally, there is no negative side effect when administering homeopathy (water). "

If that's the case why not give them plain water (the end result of a homeopathic remedy) without the expense of the other stuff. Just tell them it's had something dissolved into it.

Disagree. Money is finite and should be spent on things that actually work. There is no guarantee the placebo effect of a homeopathic remedy will work.

"There is no guarantee the placebo effect of a homeopathic remedy will work. "

Is there a guarantee that any medicines "work"? By "work" do you mean "cure of illness" or "suppression of symptoms"?

'Its adherents say it is full of good things that ordinary filtered tap water has lost. Its critics say it might well give you ‘beaver fever’ — among other illnesses'

Interesting disease.


If having beaver fever is bad then I dont want to be good

You should try raw oxygen. An absolute bargain at just £150 per day. Just stick this over your face:



I would guess Moose Industries have already thought of that way to earn money.

Both.

However homeopathy will do neither anymore than a glass of Pepsi if you believe it will.

Medicines on the other hand have to pass stringent testing and approval processes which investigate in a scientific matter whether they are beneficial.

Are you saying you can provide me with a guarantee that a pharmaceutical medicine will cure a patient of an illness?

Now you are being silly.

I clearly said both which included relieving symptoms.

Drugs have to undergo rigourous testing. They provide never otherwise they aren't certified.

Not really sure what you are getting at every arguing for argument's sake. It's tiresome and odd.
