Whole foods needs to stop

"These "Uses" have not been approved by the FDA

So you're marketing snake oil as medicine

@haybuck I hate homeopathic medicine. It literally does nothing 99% of the time, and some of these dilutions would technically require more water than our Galaxy would likely contain. How the hell they manage that is beyond me.

@Motodrachen @haybuck I still don't trust homeopathic remedies. Herbal remedies, sure. Holistic remedies? Sure. But this whole dilute the remedy to where maybe 1 in 5 million pills might contain a molecule of the actual medicine I have problems with. Especially when it's marketed to cure very serious conditions that need medical, herbal, or holistic medicines to cure.

@Cilich @haybuck If a medicine is powerful enough to actually make you better, chances are it can make you Really sick if applied improperly.

All homeopathic remedies do is convince some rational part of your brain that it just ate medicine for the thing that hurts.
You know what else does that? Believing in Magic.

@Motodrachen @Cilich "it can make you Really sick if applied improperly."

Dude, that's why there are INSTRUCTIONS on the BOX.

I'm sorry, I am not backing down on this one. At all. Period. I know people who have wound up in the hospital from taking Homeopathic medicine for the flu which did nothing and caused their condition to progress and ALMOST KILLED THEM.

This shit is DANGEROUS.
