Apparently there are 'health coaches' on ticktock etcetera who can 'help you train your brain not to need Prescription Glasses', & also 'Mens Health Coaches' who can advise in 'Naturally boosting your Testosterone Levels', & also whatever the hell they are doing (communally & in person via zoom!) in the attached Link [NSFW]

There really is a sucker born every minute isn't there ? 🤷🏾‍♀️🤦🏿

In a double-blind RCT of ADHD treatment vs "real" or "fake" #homeopathy, the non-specific effects of the homeopathy intervention (not the remedies themselves) seem to contribute to a beneficial effect, consistent with the inert nature of these products. https://edzardernst.com/2023/09/homeopathic-remedies-are-placebos-and-the-positive-effects-some-patients-experience-are-not-due-to-the-remedy/

James Ball neatly describes the dangers of the #wellness-to-woo pipeline. An important article because we all know people who have gone from embracing alternative therapies to parroting #conspiracy theories.

Wondering if anyone has ever written anything on Yitzchak Ginsburgh's fondness for homeopathy. Like, not his being a fascist (plenty about that), but specifically about homeopathy.

Bc every once in a while I see "yes, his political views are what they are, but his spirituality is very authentic"

...while at the same time he is a proponent of Western homeopathy. So I feel like that needs to be pointed out somehow...

@flavia_feijo_epi #Antivaxxers and science denialists are a global problem.
In Germany a lot of science denialists/antivaxxers are believers of the esoteric “alternative medicine” #homeopathy

It's widely been reported that #TinaTurner died "after a long illness" of "kidney failure." What is being under-reported is the role of #AlternativeMedicine and especially #homeopathy in her death. Alternative Medicine is not "harmless." It kills people. Homeopathy kills people. They die because they trust charlatans. https://www.irishmirror.ie/showbiz/us-gossip/tina-turners-scary-health-struggle-30076509

#Homeopathy is not harmless placebo but a pseudoscientific approach which undermines real medicine, illustrated (yet again alas) by Tina Turner's experience: https://www.showyourkidneyslove.com/articles/my-kidney-are-victims-of-my-elevated-blood-pressure-tina-turner/ #nofakemed

In order to have a better knowledge of homeopathy my wife just had her first lesson of gemmotherapy.

She has finally started her first steps on the path she was ment to travel.

Soooo proud of her.

This link tells you what she is studying now :

When I get the download from #source I act.

Sometimes that download can be a whisper in my ear, or many signs and messages given to me over time that all add up and make sense when put together.

Other times it can be following a whim of curiosity.

The Sacred Soul Sigils came through in drips and various signs over a period of a few weeks. However, in order to carry the energy, I had a 2 year energetic and physical upgrade.

I'm a professional homeopath as well as an artist, although I haven't practiced #homeopathy in many years.

But I was shown that the Sacred Soul Sigil acts like a homeopathic remedy for your soul.

It is like a tuning fork for your physical existence to tune into the frequency of your soul.

It is more medicine and #frequency than #art, and its truly a #magical thing I get to create.

Each one is channeled within a #sacred #ceremony of its own, and each is so different and beautiful. Just like you.

Here is one I channeled for a client last week.

@Cameo
I worked for a number of years with a Consultant Pathologist in the NHS who had studied #homeopathy (as well as the requisite number of years studying real medicine).

Her take on it was that it did (mostly) work, but only for non-life threatening conditions and not how we think it works.

Most homeopaths will spend a lot of time talking & listening to their clients over several sessions . She said it's this personal attention that 'cures' - not the diluted water.
