Homeopathetic gains PSA accreditation

I'd still like to know how my cardiac problems would have been prevented, given that I was fit and active and my diet and weight were fine. Aside from picking my parents better, of course...

I suppose it could be said that I "depend" on pharmaceuticals (at least one derived from plants), but that's preferable to death just now.

The problems may have been inevitable. You are doing your best with what you know. Many pharmaceuticals are very beneficial. All choices that don’t end with death are preferable to death.

Allopathy is just another variant of homeopathy, and is just as invalid. It was disproved alongside homeopathy because it advocates exactly the same process as homeopathy except that different remedies are selected for the symptoms. Allopathy and homeopathy are just "dialects" of the same stupidity.

You must never substitute the term "allopathy" for "modern medicine", nor consider those terms interchangeable. They are not even the slightest bit the same, regardless of prevailing naming conventions. It is like referring to the English language as "Japanese". It is not just wrong, but ridiculously wrong.

If you mean "modern medicine" then say so.

Thanks for your consideration. Carry on.

What is the bias of the application of symptom-specific proprietary pharmaceuticals, but allopathy? And what is modern medicine, but predominately allopathic, with emphasis on patentable, salable drugs and surgeries that generate recurring revenue? They don’t have to be synonymous to have a relationship.

A lot of homeopathics are used for the general population for issues like Sleep (Calms Forte') and one I use for Cataract Prevention (Cineraria Maritma) -- otherwise to get into it all the way it's best to go with homeopathic doctor and do all the testing. I considered that but it's very comlicated overall.

And then there is Arnica creams and oils for joint pain which I also use.

I bought a jar of arnica cream for joint pain. It was not costly so maybe worth a shot.

I have no idea what arnica is but it's the 2nd ingredient on the label after carnuba wax.
So supposedly it is just loaded with the stuff.

A bit further down is camphor which is used in many pain creams. It has a noted cooling effect on the skin but this product claims deep penetrating magic medicine.

Now the routine is shower after work, relax and on bad days apply the magic.
Or if I can't find it shower and relax. Sometimes with a cold adult beverage, sometimes not.

Results are the joint pain subsided, but in some eratz testing the cream has the least effect, even if it smells good.
It doesn't affect the time to alleve anything. The Vina Real on the other hand has near immediate effect in reduced time.

And it tastes far better.

I really should look into what arnica is but in my unscientific testing it looks like shiny herbal snake oil. A wine cooler works better and faster.
I really did give it an honest try, I hoped it would help.

Icy Hot has more effective relief by far and no arnica. Just camphor. Hmmm? I could draw a conclusion there.....

Meanwhile if required a naproxeno sódico tablet will set things straight in minutes and hold good for 18 hours . Big Pharma seems to hold the best solution. Magic herbs and whatnot are fun but I need effective.

90% of "alternate medicine" is just plain woo...and I might be way too generous with the 90% figure.

I like to say that "alternative medicine" is something that you take instead of taking medicine, and "complementary medicine" is something that you take in addition to taking medicine, that you subsequently attribute your recovery to.

I may be guilty of confusing the criticism of homeopathy with naturopathy. After consulting the wiki, it is patently ridiculous.

One thing I am, however, is skeptical of pharmaceutical drugs and questionable surgical procedures sold by allopathic medicine, because I have seen first hand the devastation they’ve caused - from bad hip surgeries, to bad hernia mesh implants, to opioid abuse, to toxic SSRIs.

I have also had the pleasure of seeing bad drugs and surgeries avoided, which gives me a rich context for my skepticism.

I'm headed to 11 yrs of living with a damaged body from hip replacement, not what I expected for a second. I went into it for betterment for my life, and not what I got.

One trip to the ER in the 80's from a pharma drug, aka allopathic drug, got me on my road to FEAR pharma drugs.

A couple of ICU for my daughter in the 2000's, hearing loss due to opiods and collapsed tendons on both feet from Cipro.

She was directed to an MD who was slap happy about "writing" and I understand he still has that reputation.

Thank the universe she made it thru and won't touch a drug and got a divorce from her sick making marriage.

And we do NO covid vaccines.

Yeah. Not taking experimental mRNA therapy for a disease with a 0.26% IFR, and one for which I already have natural immunity. I'll leave that to the virtue signaling Fauci worshippers.

It's not experimental. mRNA vaccines have been in development for decades. It's a fully mature technology that has been granted emergency use authorisation for the first time.
 
Oh dear, the homeopaths have decided to take their ball home and withdraw from the PSA:

https://homeopathy-soh.org/society-withdraws-from-the-psa/

And for some balance - https://edzardernst.com/2021/07/the...ws-from-the-professional-standards-authority/

None of which is surprising as they are not professional and have no standards, unless you count make some **** up, con folk into going along with your BS, take the money and run as "standards".

ETA Note the wanktastic "justification" from the Society of Horsefaecesmerchants about fees, which was not why they were suspended in the first ******* place.
