Amusing.
On the one hand, homoeopathy is just expensive water, so it probably can't do much harm. Except that people might substitute it for actual medicine, or other therapies, that do work.
On the other hand, placebos work, so <shrug>.
On the other-other hand (you make me wish I had three hands), vitamin deficiency is a real thing.
- dragonwriter 8y ago> On the one hand, homoeopathy is just expensive water, No, it's not, homeopathic remedies have been recalled multiple times for having serious harmful ingredients, most often dangerous levels of things on the official ingredient list that would not be possible with the claimed dilution. The thing to realize with homeopathy is that it claims to be made by a process that would leave only expensive water, but because of that it is not subject to the kind of controls which would provide any advance assurance that anything like the claimed process is actually used. So, effectively, homeopathy could be just about anything.
