Once it has been tested and confirmed to work, I would then consider it a part of medicine, since it has departed from the world of quackery.KJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10817974804323066290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7498388463767378455.post-36936396922504354572010-04-02T12:03:41.160+13:002010-04-02T12:03:41.160+13:00Hey

I'm not arguing with the fact that many (if not most) naturopathic "remedies" do nothing constructive. But good medicine has come from orinally natural sources (morphine is a fine example).<br /><br />So wanted to check if you were for testing these products. the same way medicines are tested and proven.Naznoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7498388463767378455.post-58717085472772716442010-03-27T17:09:52.603+13:002010-03-27T17:09:52.603+13:00No actually I'm going to change that definitio...No actually I'm going to change that definition.

And you dont actually need to do a in depth study. We know corony heart surgery works because its performed and it stops people from dying! And we know naturopathic remedys dont work because we have brains.. Solving serious illness with Naturopathy is like trying to put out a forest fire with a watergun.MTnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7498388463767378455.post-16447066207333218532010-03-25T19:18:07.693+13:002010-03-25T19:18:07.693+13:00Surgery =/= medication.

We know which organs perform which functions and we know how they work.<br /><br />Medication on the other hand is not based on our anatomical knowledge. Medication usually goes through several stages of development. Including: formulation, several kinds of testing and trial programs before it is released. Naturopathic medicine does not go through this procedure.KJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10817974804323066290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7498388463767378455.post-17688855246822216782010-03-25T19:14:08.076+13:002010-03-25T19:14:08.076+13:00oh so you mean conventional medicine like coronary...oh so you mean conventional medicine like coronary artery bypass surgery... i'm sure that has undergone lots of double-blind placebo controlled studies, i don't think so.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7498388463767378455.post-10297391989028228772010-03-25T18:23:29.401+13:002010-03-25T18:23:29.401+13:00Virtually every single double-blind test that has ...Virtually every single double-blind test that has been carried out with naturopathic/homeopathic remedies has shown no difference between the remedy and the control substance.<br /><br />The biggest hit is probably from the fact that a substantial number of naturopathic remedies have not even come close to passing the rigorous testing that conventional medicine goes through.KJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10817974804323066290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7498388463767378455.post-76201937508626297952010-03-25T18:15:59.442+13:002010-03-25T18:15:59.442+13:00where do you get the information that 'the pla...where do you get the information that 'the placebo effect accounts for most of the positive results that come from naturopathic remedies'Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
