An article I wrote last year about breast cancer and homeopathy was picked up by www.Care2.com… I hope people get to read it and think twice about dismissing homeopathy as a treatment for serious disease.
Here is the beginning:
A landmark paper on the use of homeopathy in cancer appeared in the February 2010 issue of the International Journal of Oncology. The paper reported on a study of four homeopathic remedies that showed positive results using homeopathic remedies and thereby opening the door to the possibility of using homeopathy for breast cancer treatment.
Skeptics May Have to Rethink Their Opinions–Homeopathy May Really Work
The study caused the scientific community to take a second look at the positive effects using homeopathic medicine (called remedies by homeopaths) in the treatment of some illnesses. There was a huge outcry against the results of the study because the authors of the report stated that, “The remedies exerted preferential cytotoxic effects against the two breast cancer cell lines, causing cell cycle delay/arrest and apoptosis.” While not exactly treating women with breast cancer, their study demonstrated the possibility of eliminating breast cancer cells with homeopathic treatment.
