Teething tablets? My Dad used to soak a cotton ball with Whiskey and put that on my gums. That would warrant a visit from the CPS today.

I wonder what the FDA is going to do about what used to be called "Old Wives Home Remedies"? Warning this Apple Cider Vinegar (or Garlic, Coconuts) is not to be used for Medicinal Purposes!

How do you know homeopathy can treat cancer?



No money in homeopathy, eh?



You can exercise, eat right, and still get cancer.

Of course there is money in homeopathy, under $8 for my little "tap water" tabs 100 ct bottle that help me to sleep,,,BTW I slept my normal 8-10 hrs last night. I see so many up half the night on the computers, maybe if they tried some sleep homeopathics, sleep is what they would be doing.

There is money in everything, money makes life go around..but pharma drugs good GRIEF.

What I did hear at the end of the video and I'll listen to it again, that the main N.D. worked to get other MD's form integrative groups of doctors and many joined in and when it was time to act, some of the MD's just could not break some kind of oath. Good grief.

I see only integrative MD's for the last 15 yrs. My current MD is in practice alone. We have integrative clinics in this area. California is a major state for functional medicine doctors. There is just so MUCH Anger from some when others make their health improvements with other than pharma drugs. I say whatever works but so many just don't want to admit that.


This great DIVIDE goes on all the time here in H&W. Yes Divide in how others choose to do their healing.

Who knows??? Could be the pharma lobbyists were doing their jobs for their fat paychecks and targeted CNN to bring this up.

In all fairness in reporting, CNN needs to do a exposure on the millions that die from pharma drugs.

Do you think the FDA automatically believes claims in the absence of any supporting evidence from pharmaceutical companies? Why would they take the hawkers of homeopathic remedies at their word without at least checking that the ingredient list is accurate and there aren't dangerous levels of impurities?

Cancerous skin lesions can be burned off at home. Ever consider that? Homeopathic method? FDA going to police that too? Imagine all the money lost by the medical industry over that.

It is all about the money.

Evidence from the pharmaceutical companies? Are you saying that the pharmaceutical companies are the ones who swayed the FDA to look into the dangerous homeopathics? Shouldn't the pharmaceutical companies be more concerned with the dangers of their own drugs?

That is clearly not what she is saying.
