minus-squareacockworkorangelinkfedilinkarrow-up55·11 months agoI’m conflicted. On one hand, that’s no homeopathy in any shape or form. On the other hand, in no shape or form does homeopathy work. So I guess the bullshits cancel each other out?
minus-squareg0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6arrow-down2·11 months agoYeah you’re right, I guess I thought homeopathic just meant non medicinal. But it’s absolutely effective at both sterilizing and drying the ear.
minus-squarekelvie@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up11·11 months agoI think your brain probably wanted to say “home remedy”.

minus-squareintensely_human@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down34·11 months agoHomeopathy definitely works. Vaccines are an example of a homeopathic remedy that has shown enormous success.
minus-squarefruitSnackSupreme@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up9·11 months agoIn what world are vaccines homeopathic?

minus-squareintensely_human@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down12·11 months agoVaccines treat disease using the disease itself. That’s the definition of homeopathic medicine.
minus-squareBirdie@thelemmy.clublinkfedilinkarrow-up4·11 months agoVaccines are not so diluted that they contain nothing of what they claim to contain—but homeopathic remedies are.
