Homeopathy under Attack
I am glad that Time decided to run this article even through rather belatedly in their magazine and I do hope that at least some of their readers will read the comments that I and others interested in Homeopathy have made in this forum.
I feel that the real reason for the Lancet article was the concern that the pharmaceutical giants are experiencing today as a result of the gradual shift of the general public to Homeopathy which has resulted in a loss of Millions in sales to their industry last year which is progressively increasing this year.
I do not think that the editor every imagined that as a result of his article in the Lancet which has now been carried by Time, they have only helped to accelerate the drift to Homeopathy as the publicity given throughout the world to Homeopathy can only serve to increase interest in this science. Many who use it will testify, that it is far more effective and far more cost effective than the drugs that are commonly prescribed for ailments which in many cases create more problems like Vioxx which has now fallen out of favour after thousands have died after using it on prescription.
