What is funny is their remedies would only have had an effect if it was done right away. Still wouldn’t have treated tetanus, but as far as wound management some of that does something.
Homeopaths are derrainged and do more harm than good with traditional medicine.
Seems like it would be easier and probably even cheaper to take your kid to the doctor than to gather and store all those materials and learn how to use them, even assuming the efficacy of both options is the same, which it definitely isn’t.
Because of what I have to admit is brilliant marketing. The ‘essential’ in essential oils just means ‘essence of,’ which is a perfectly valid, if dated, use of that word. However, because the modern connotation of ‘essential’ is ‘necessary,’ people convinced themselves that they need it. It’s obviously misleading, but not in a way that’s actually illegal. It’s both genius and fucking terrible.

I bet a lot of people peddling homeopathy just think it’s herbs and water, and don’t know the initial theories behind it like “the law of similars” (thinking something can be treated by a substance that causes similar symptoms) and miasma (outdated idea on how diseases spread), or the fact that it’s often so diluted to the point where whatever was originally there is essentially gone.
At least some natural/traditional remidies are legit, but still see an actual fucking doctor over anything serious.

Yes. But that’s not Homeopathy. Holistic/Herbal medicine is valid (for the most part). Heck, most medicine started out as our ancestors realising that this or that plant eased pain, or lowered inflammation or a hundred other things.
Modern medicine is mostly just a distillation of those age old cures into more convenient pill form.
But let’s be really really clear here, Homeopathy is NOT “traditional medicine”. It’s a scam. This notion that because an infection makes your eye red, and an onion also makes your eye red, therefore a drop of diluted onion water will cure your eye infection is just a straight up insane at best, criminal at worst.
“For the most part” is probably being generous. Yes, there are naturally occuring medicines which have paper observable physiological effects of the human body, but, the fundamental difference between modern medicine and “traditional” or “herbal” medicine is the truth-seeking framework in which it exists. Herbal medicine which stands up to scientific rigor is just medicine.
The people who believe homeopathy are either cons and grifters or gullible people who believe what they are told and wouldn’t dare look further than the testimonial and cherry-picked articles.
Understanding the history and theory are so much further than the Facebook post they read that convinced them.
I know universal healthcare wouldn’t get rid of them all, but man, would there be so much less.
Homeopaths are derrainged and do more harm than good with traditional medicine.
This is a true statement in that homeopaths do nothing good and do some harm. It’s a waste of money and time. Their system is based on a fundamental misunderstanding of reality in multiple ways (“like cures like”, water memory, etc.) and provides no benefit unless you count a little extra water intake as a point in their column.
It’s a shame because it gets a bad rap but there’s a lot of things that can be healed using more natural methods.
I got rid of scabbies by taking cayenne pepper baths and an other product, I forget the name but it affects their reproduction cycle. I also put paste of the stuff on the “sore” every now an then and washed my sheets every day.
My friends on the other hand went through some intense washing of their houses and put plastic on everything that wasn’t washable. They also washed themselves with some seriously intense chemicals. They said it was almost unbearable and felt like skin wide burning while my baths only made my neither regions tingle a bit.
We all got the same results in the same amount of time in the end.

Most likely less expensive too. Essential oils are stupidly expensive.

They remind me of essential vitamins, the ones you literally need to live.
The dtap shot is even easier. Its either free with insurance or around $20 and you only need it once a decade.
That reminds me, I got my last dtap 11 years ago. Thanks!
