Homeopathy, Haters, and Social Media

Im astounded by the amount of vehement negative press that homeopathy generates in Twitter. I tweeted on Saturday about my Jan Scholten Seminar on Minerals and the Periodic Table and not one but Three people retweeted me. Two called it "deluded nonsense" and one with a link to African AIDS treatments that an esteemed teacher is supposedly illegally involved in. http://www.theonebox.eu/

     As an aside, it seems Jan Scholten gave a group of Kenyans with advanced AIDS a single homeopathic remedy in a hospital setting. There was greater than 90% recovery in appetite, weight gain and opportunistic infections resolution as a result of taking the remedy. This was not done as an official clinical trial, and it seems the Kenyan government was not appraised of the people getting the remedy which is a prerequesite for African AIDS clinial trials. This last part seems to be the beef that the twitterer holds with the work thats been done. Is it possible that because it is also a non-patentable very low cost and apparently effective remedy he also has a problem with it?

I feel resentful and impatient that 100 years after the Flexner Report it is STILL necessary to try and debunk one branch of medicine that is quietly doing its own work to heal and cure disease.  Its like trying to prove that one religion is better than another! Really, are we not all working towards the same end result?

Past. Present. Future.

Im excited about this new blog posting from The Wright Doctor dot com. I am starting to find my writing voice regarding fertility & treatment. Exciting, because there is a book in me. And a baby. And a new degree. And a whole life ahead. Sometimes I wish I was 17 not 37. Then again, the past ten years have been so great I wouldnt give them up for anything.
