There's a reason for that, you know?

Originally posted by AMMORA But i rarely need to go to the doctor, even when i get sick my body fights off colds in a day or two. there is something to be said for not being put on a zillion antibiotics growing up for every single cold or sniffle. people destroy their immune systems beyond repair and have lifelong problems from that shit. it won't cure cancer, but it might prevent you from getting cancer to begin with

Antibiotics aren't given for colds and sniffles. There is no way to manufacture a drug that can combat over 300 thousand variations of a virus.

Listening to your body and keeping fit and healthy isn't anything new, it's just common sense. We drink tea, eat fruit loaded with vitamins, rug up and get warm when we're sick for a reason, because it works. We don't do it because it's an alternative form of medicine.

Originally posted by boris_the_bear people like Randi, who make their living by putting on shows and making fun of everything, even when rationale seems to back them up, are out of my interest. sure, Randi is amusing to listen to and his debunking of the bending spoon and moving objects with physic force myths have to be given credit, but he's not a professional scientist and there must be a reason for that. thus, his target audience is just as well common with science as the audience of an occasional magician or healer (i.e. is as easy to convince).

you don't need to be a "professional scientist" to detect bullshit using scientific principles.

This is apart from the fact that antibiotics attack bacteria and not viruses.

Originally posted by gmilf i guess the thing to distinguish is that the main idea behind homeopathy is treating the illness as a symptom of the whole body being out of whack. and when dealing with the root cause of most illnesses this approach does make a lot of sense. the way in which people try to re-balance the body is where you get into a lot of the weird cures such as crystals or extracts diluted to the point that they are essentially placebos.

are you conflating homeopathy and naturopathy? homeopathy is practically defined by its "weird cure" of dilution. it is the central tenet of the faith. dilution is to homeopathy what christ is to christianity.

Mahendra Gundawar & 6 others Chandrapur, India Three dead, seven blinded December 14, 2007 Gundawar was a homeopath who sold a new tonic, recently introduced on the market, that was supposed to reduce fatigue. He himself died, along with several of his patients. Several others were blinded, and other cases occured elsewhere in India.

maybe they diluted it too much and made it too powerful?
