Homeopathy is neither very slow acting, nor very fast acting

When used in chronic and old diseases, it obviously takes some time to produce lasting results.

Homeopathy dose not increase the disease before curing it.

It is a wrong belief that homeopathy aggravates the disease before curing it.

Homeopathy and the conventional (allopathic) medicines
can be taken together.

In face, many diseases may need an integration of both the medicines.

 

 

Myth: Homeopathy is simply herbal medicine.

Fact: Not really. Homeopathy is much more than herbal medicine. It has medicines sourced from herbs, minerals, chemicals, animal products, organisms, etc. And, very importantly, it is backed by a sophisticated method of medicine preparation, sound scientific principles, and deep philosophy.

Myth: Homeopathy cures all diseases.

Fact: No system of medicine can cure all diseases.

Myth: Homeopathy is a placebo therapy.

Fact: Homeopathy is a proven therapy, used successfully for the last 200 years in over 170 countries; supported by scientific studies. It shows once ignorance if one believes that homeopathy is a placebo.

Myth: Homeopathy increases the disease before curing.

Fact: Not really. Only some diseases such as eczema might worsen, that too in less than 5% of cases if medicines are not professionally prescribed. The whole idea of the increase of disease before a cure is exaggerated.

Myth: Homeopathic medicines contain steroids or cortisone!

Fact: It is absurd to even think that homeopathy may contain cortisone.

Myth: Homeopathy is very slow.

Fact: Homeopathy is a little slower than conventional medicines; but not very slow. Since it deals with chronic and difficult diseases, the course of treatment may seem slow and long.

Myth: Homeopathic medicines cannot be taken with conventional (allopathic) medicines.

Fact: Conventional medicines and homeopathic medicines can safely be taken together, with advantage, without any harm.

Myth: Homeopathy is very fast!

Fact: It is not even very fast. It all depends on the nature of the disease that is under treatment.

Myth: Homeopathy cures all diseases permanently:

Fact: Not always, to be honest. Homeopathy gives lasting results for sure. The word permanent is theoretical, which cannot be promised for, difficult diseases.

Myth: Coffee and onion cannot be taken during homeopathic treatment.

Fact: Can be taken, keeping a gap of about half an hour.

Myth: Homeopathy can cure cancer, mental retardation, heart blocks, baldness (MPB), all surgical diseases, cataract, hernia, hydrocele, etc.

Fact: Not true.

Myth: Investigations such as x-ray, blood tests, MRIs, etc. are not required for homeopathic treatment.

Fact: All sorts of investigations are required and useful for better and more effective homeopathic treatment.

Myth: Diagnosis is not required for homeopathic treatment.

Fact: Diagnosis helps to make better prescriptions of homeopathic medicines.

Myth: Homeopathic medicines are prescribed only on the mental symptoms of the patient.

Fact: Not correct. Studies of disease, diagnosis, and mental attributes are studied in homeopathy.

Myth: Vitamins, iron-tonic, etc. should not be taken during homeopathic treatment.

Fact: Can be taken. Tonics and supplements are part of the homeopathic treatment!

Myth: Homeopathy is against surgery.

Fact: Not really. Surgery is a part of homeopathy. Interestingly, some of the surgical diseases (life piles, fissures, tonsillitis, etc.) can be cured without surgery.
