AYUSH has landed in trouble a couple of times in the past for peddling unscientific advice in the name of ancient wisdom. Its latest post on homoeopathy has ruffled feathers, inviting criticisms from the internet.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Common Homeopathy Myths You Should Stop Believing In, According to an Expert.

Why Is Homeopathy Criticised?
Homoeopathy is a 250-year-old system of medicine founded by Dr Samuel Hahnemann. The word homoeopathy is derived from 슬롯사이트œhomeo슬롯사이트� meaning same and 슬롯사이트œpathy슬롯사이트� meaning suffering. Homoeopathy comprises remedies, which produce symptoms similar to the disease. It was invented after Hahnemann was disheartened by the corrupt, blood-letting practices followed by the medical world back then. So he invented homoeopathy as a gentler alternative for healing naturally.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천'Homeopathic Hacks' Go Viral on Twitter with Netizens Sharing 'Natural Remedies' That Worked for Them; Reactions Are Both Funny and Helpful!
Homoeopaths use remedies from nature 슬롯사이트� like arnica and belladonna 슬롯사이트� to cure illnesses. Ingredients or tinctures are mixed with water or alcohol and shaken to increase the medicine슬롯사이트™s efficiency. The process of 슬롯사이트œpotentisation슬롯사이트� helps to transfer the healing properties of the medicine to the water. Lower doses of the medicines are considered more powerful than higher doses.
Although the line of medicine is controversial, many swear by its efficiency and claim to have found genuine benefits from it. Others slam it as quackery, saying homoeopathy is no better than placebo.
Major criticisms on homoeopathy revolve around its perceived 슬롯사이트œunscientific슬롯사이트� approach. Sir John Forbes, Queen Victoria슬롯사이트™s physician was an early critic who said that the small doses of homoeopathic remedies won슬롯사이트™t effect a cure. They argue that many of the medicines don슬롯사이트™t contain any of the molecules of the original remedies.
Critics also say that it is unethical to promote homoeopathy because its effects cannot be scientifically proven. Its benefits, they state, are no more effective than a placebo. Plus, trusting patients who repose faith in homoeopathy may not seek traditional treatment for serious diseases like AIDS and cancer and may worsen their complications. Certain homoeopaths with their anti-vax stance may also spell bad news for the herd immunity.
Homoeopathy is also funded by the NHS in UK. Critics say that it슬롯사이트™s a wastage of resources to pump money into a system of medicine that has no evidence base beyond its placebo effect.
What Do Homeopaths Say?
Unsurprisingly, homoeopaths shrug off criticisms with explanations of their own. They say that critics of homoeopathy, ironically, don슬롯사이트™t have any hard evidence to prove why homoeopathy doesn슬롯사이트™t work. While they argue homoeopathy doesn슬롯사이트™t work, they have no means to prove why!
Thwarting claims that 슬롯사이트œwater has memory슬롯사이트� is unscientific, they cite physicists Rustum Roy and Jayesh Bellare슬롯사이트™s works to prove that physical properties of homoeopathic remedies were different from those of water.
Homoeopaths also blame the inconsistency of evidence supporting homoeopathy on the 슬롯사이트œheterogeneity of the literature.슬롯사이트� People who have no basic skills to perform homoeopathic trials are often in charge of these studies. A BMJ review stated that 41 percent of all RTCs lead to positive conclusions, and only 7 percent are negative. A whopping 52 percent of the trails are inconclusive.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Fact or Hoax: Will Homeopathic Remedy 슬롯사이트˜Gelsemium 200슬롯사이트� Really Protect Us Against Nipah Virus? The Answer Will Shock You.
Diseases like childhood diarrhoea, allergies, rheumatic diseases, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, upper respiratory infections and influenza respond positively to homoeopathic medicines, according to systemic reviews.
Homoeopaths also blame the limitations of laboratory and clinical researches. Since homoeopathy doesn슬롯사이트™t work on a chemical level like allopathy, biomedical research model used for drug trials cannot work. In short, researchers need to design studies according to how homoeopathy is practised clinically.
