Homeopathic Accident and Emergency First Aid Kit

Once long time ago my little girl had simple bladder infection. Instead of simple antibiotic treatment our family doctor decided to use "all natural" homeopathic remedy. Needless to say we as young parents did not question that decision at that time and in 5 days our 5 year old ended up in hospital for 7 days with nasty pyelonephritis. Good it ended without complications. Since that time homeopathy is outlawed/banned/ignored in my life.

I take Xanax for panic attacks and recently my dr is trying to steer me into homeopathics. I am dropping him. A 30 day supply lasts me about 90 days so not like I abuse them and in fact can't imagine why anyone would. Anyways not risking my career on some mystical pill if I feel an attack coming on.
 
There are some good homeopathic products out there. Unfortunately for every one decent product, there are twenty that have absolutely no value. It's the same with a lot of supplements. Best quote I ever heard was that you would just have very expensive piss because once your body has x amount of certain nutrients, the rest are just expelled.

A lot of this is "mental" as well. If you take something expecting to feel better or perform better, chances are you will. And then you will attribute that feeling/performance to the product instead of just the mental boost and confidence you got from EXPECTING to do better.

On that topic, anyone ever try the performace bracelets that have been so popular and so hyped by many athletes?

What do you mean by "homeopathic"? To me, it means the product has been diluted to the point where you have nothing but water left, and this water is supposedly "potentiated", "energized", or some other claptrap. There are no good products of this type.

Yes, I do hate parasites that sponge money off the desperate and credible to their medical detriment.

I also hate people with Masters in mathematics degrees acting like they're medical professionals and modern-day prophets, as they tend to compose emotionally-charged blanket generalizations-- resulting in calling every practicing homeopath a parasite.


As usual, your ideas tend to be rooted in empirical truth, but your delivery is of the lowest of grades, OB. Hopefully you'll learn some-day (which isn't far-fetched, for one who claims to be as truth-seeking as yourself).

Not true. You may brush this aside as being purely anecdotal, but I was able to cure some (admittedly mild) dehydration by orally applying 10 or 12 of these capsules.
