...can you name ONE other system of “pseudoscience” that has a similar body of randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled clinical trials published in high-impact medical journals showing efficacy of treatment?


This more comprehensive Swiss government-funded report found a particularly strong body of evidence to support the homeopathic treatment of Upper Respiratory Tract Infections and Respiratory Allergies. The report cited 29 studies in “Upper Respiratory Tract Infections/AllergicReactions,” with 24 studies having a positive result in favor of homeopathy. Six out of seven controlled studies that compared homeopathic treatment with conventional medical treatment showed homeopathy to be more effective than conventional medical interventions. When the researchers evaluated only the randomized placebo controlled trials, 12 out of 16 studies showed a positive result in favor of homeopathy.

...Kleijnen J, Knipschild P ter Riet G. Clinical trials of homoeopathy. BMJ 1991, 302, 316-23. Of the 22 best studies, 15 showed positive results from homeopathic treatment. The researchers concluded, “there is a legitimate case for further evaluation of homeopathy.”
Jacobs J, Jonas WB, Jimenez-Perez M, Crothers D, Homeopathy for Childhood Diarrhea: Combined Results and Metaanalysis from Three Randomized, Controlled Clinical Trials, Pediatr Infect Dis J, 2003;22:229-34. This metaanalysis of 242 children showed a highly significant result in the duration of childhood diarrhea (P=0.008).

The BMJ published an editorial in the issue in which this study was published asserting, “It may be time to confront the conclusion that homeopathy and placebo differ...... This may be more plausible than the conclusion that their trials have produced serial false positive results” (This week in the BMJ. Homoeopathic dilutions may be better than placebo. BMJ 2000;321:0).

Jonas, WB, Linde, Klaus, and Ramirez, Gilbert, “Homeopathy and Rheumatic Disease,” Rheumatic Disease Clinics of North America, February 2000,1:117-123.
Is Homeopathy Really “Implausible”?


...The journal, Langmuir, is the journal of the American Chemical Society, and in 2012, they published an important article that provided a plausible explanation for the actions of homeopathic medicines. First, they verified using three different types of spectroscopy that clearly showed that nanoparticles of six original medicinal agents persisted in solutions even after they were diluted 1:100 six times, thirty times, and even two-hundred times.
Avogadro’s number predicts that none of the original medicinal agents would have ANY persisting molecules of the original medicinal substance would remain after 12 dilutions of 1:100. However, the scientists describe reasonable and even predictable factors that lead to the persistence of nanoparticles after their multiple dilutions. The scientists note that the use of double-distilled water in glass vials leads to varying amounts of silica fragments that fall into the water, as much as 6ppm. The vigorous shaking of the glass vial creates bubbles and “nanobubbles” that bring oxygen into the water and that increase substantially the water pressure (William Tiller, PhD, the former head of Stanford’s Department of Material Science, estimated this pressure to be 10,000 atmospheres).
Ultimately, this increased water pressure forces whatever medicinal substance is in the double-distilled water into the silica, and every substance will interact with the silica in its own idiosyncratic way. Then, when 90% of the water is dumped out, the silica fragments predictably cling to the glass walls.

When skeptics of homeopathy reference Avogadro’s number as “evidence” that homeopathic medicines beyond 24X or 12C have “no remaining molecules left,” they are simply verifying their own ignorance of Avogadro’s number because this widely recognized principle in chemistry does NOT account for the complexities of the silica fragments, the bubbles or nanobubbles, nor the increased water pressure. In fact, any serious scientist or educated individual who asserts that a homeopathic medicine is “beyond Avogadro’s number” has no ground on which they stand.

...What is shocking about Wikipedia’s article of homeopathy is that there is NO reference to this Nobel Prize winner or to his interview in one of the most respected scientific journals in the world today or any reference to French government... I was blocked from editing any article to do with homeopathy because I was deemed to have a “conflict of interest” due to the fact that I am a homeopath. Ironically, no medical doctor is prohibited from editing on any medical subject just because she or he is a medical doctor!

You folks seem to have missed the least/best of all--the S.Am."Margay"?SP? possibly about the size of an Maine Coon-Kat,but really tropical.
Many years ago in Seattle,one fancier used to walk his Margay(sp?)on university way every night on an collar/leash.
He would stop at Chase's or the "Last Exit"or "Eigervan"and tether it to an post,whilst he had coffee and played chess.
I used to offer it Cat-Nip to see what it did!

Regarding Lyme Disease inconclusive results:

After the Western Blot- Band 23 is specific to Lyme disease. No other infection will make that band light up. Band 41 could be Lyme or something else.

Immunoglobulins: The IgM test means a more recent infection, while the IgG means an older infection, so each one matters:  it's simply a timing measure of where you might be in an infection.

Try and find a Lyme specialist, called an LLMD. Rheumatologists are not Lyme specialists so push this with your HMO. http://www.ilads.org/ can help you, email them.

Thanks, you Savage you. Couldn't help myself

Ocelots were a weird trend in old days. Some think reasons for "big cat" in UK and else where. Tho they not as big but the deal of having cats and they more smaller and better than etc? The other ones get out or released. I saw some dude with a frigging tiger at the creek as a kid. Later said tiger was killed. Stupid people and stupid cops. Was "pet" and big enclosure but city limits expanded and now prohibited, so to save cat. Kill it.)

Treatments you believe in are generally more effective than those you don't.  Anything you come across through your own research activates this effect, which is why they seem to work.

Along the same lines, thinking about medical issues causes you to discover them.  I'm getting out of here before I catch something.   :P

That's why homeopathy is so effective for animals

As I recall the idea summed up "hair of the dog that bit ya" but in Deutsch. Only homeopathy I see in theory is after drinking all night of schnapps, or worse dopplekorn, is that morning beer will help.

yes. Allopathic treats opposite i.e cool down a fever. Homeopathic fights poison with poison, but in extremely small amounts. One reason why scientists think it's quackery. There is basically nothing in the pill/liquid. It seems like magic but it is very effective
