Homeopathic Medicine: Test Your Knowledge
Know any homeopathic doctors? Ever been treated by a homeopath? Have an interest in holistic medicine? How much do you really know about the holistic medical specialty called Homeopathic Medicine? Homeopathy has the undeserved reputation among some who call themselves healers of being quackery. But is it really? Or are the seeming miraculous cures brought about by this often misunderstood healing modality real? What follows is a 10-question homeopathy quiz which I hope you will find enjoyable. I also hope it piques your curiosity enough to seek out more information on the subject. You'll find additional information, some videos and links to other websites further down the page.
If you've never heard of homeopathy before, you will be lucky to get 3-4 correct. If you go to a healthfood store once a week, you might get 5-6 correct.. If you or a family member or acquaintance has been treated by a homeopathic physician, you might get 7-9 correct. I expect that only someone with a serious interest in alternative medicine will get 100%! Good luck! (The next question in the sequence will appear only after the current question has been answered.)

The Strange Case of Homeopathy by Michael Castleman
From Psychology Today
The excellent article by health writer Michael Castleman, NOTHING AT ALL? PLACEBO? OR MIRACLE CURE/ THE STRANGE CASE OF HOMEOPATHY , which appeared in Psychology Today, should be read by advocates of this amazing healing modality, but especially by its critics. Extremely interesting reading!

An Ill-considered "Experiment" To Disprove Homeopathy
UK Guardian Fashion Editor Downs A Bottle of ???
About a year ago (3 Feb 2010) a young fashion editor for the UK Guardian, Hadley Freeman, wrote a column--"Me and My Homeopathic Overdose"--in which she gleefully related on how she and a group of other homeopathy skeptics "knocked back a bottle of homeopathic 'medicine' and lived to tell the tale."
She never mentioned which remedies were selected or in what potencies they were taken. So, we are left to wonder whether participants downed bottles of Calcium Phos 6x...or something more potentially harmful like, say, Phosphoric Acid or Lachesis Mutus in a 200x or 200c potency. Freeman was happy to report that she did not drop dead on the spot, thereby (at least, probably in her mind) proving that homeopathy is bunk. My advice to her would be not to engage in any premature celebrations....especially if the high doses were taken. It can take months for the effects to manifest. Although I am not a homeopath, I have had experience with self-administered homeopathic meds...not all pleasant.
She could be in for a world of hurt. If so, I wonder if she will connect it to the dose she took in February of 2010. Probably not. But my guess is that she and her fellow skeptics, did themselves no good on that February day. I've google-searched to see if I could find a follow-up report by her, but found none.

Not the sexiest title, perhaps, but it discusses a study which professional skeptics just may have trouble explaining away. Or are the piglets in the study unduly influenced by the power of suggestion?

Many modern books on homeopathy are for those people who wish to treat everyday ills such as acute sore throats, sprains, indigestion and the like.
This is not Classical Homeopathy. This is not to say it is worthless; far from it. But for serious illnesses, a trip to a well-trained classical homeopathic MD would be best. In the next few modules, I will include a selection of books dealing with both Classical Homeopathy and the less sophisticated variety.
