What is homeopathic medicines

Homeopathy is a special system of treatment, developed by German Dr. Samuel Hanemanna. In the late eighteenth century he formulated the basic principles of homeopathy, which since then has not changed.

The main principle of homeopathy is that if a substance causes a symptom of any disease, small doses of this substance have the opposite effect, i.e., eliminate the disease. A classic example is quinine, a substance that is derived from the bark of the Cinchona tree. It causes fever and other symptoms similar to malaria. Accordingly, small doses of this substance from the point of view of homeopathy malaria need to be treated. In other words, "like cures like".

The second of the fundamental principles of homeopathy concerns the ideas about the size of a small doses of the substance. In homeopathy under similar doses understand an infinitely small quantity. The active substance is diluted in water, it is shaken or dinamiteros. Shaking allows water to remember the benefits (energy, essence) of the substance, to gather information. In the water due to infinitesimal dilutions may not be a single molecule of the active substance. To treat this case we use the memory or the information density of the liquid. The higher the dilution of the medicines in homeopathy, the less active substances present in its composition.

As a rule, such water is mixed with ordinary icing sugar or other neutral substance, and obtained from her balls already assigned to the patient. It should be noted that currently, homeopathic medicines can be manufactured in ointments, drops, solutions and even candles.

It is believed that charged water affects not so much on the physical body of man as to its energy field. It is as if this field conveys the correct information. Homeopaths believe that they treat not a disease, but directly to the patient, which is the third principle of homeopathy. That treatment can be more effective, it is not recommended to use more than two drugs.

Unfortunately, to prove the efficacy of homeopathic medicines using the principles of conventional medicine, it is impossible. Homeopathy can be built on the belief or the effect "placebo". Only this can explain why for some people it has a really noticeable effect, allowing you to cope with serious diseases and others does not help.
