Zak Debunks Homeopathic Medicine
This is an interview I did for a short documentary. I discuss why homeopathic treatments are bunk. I explain how it “works”, the “science” behind it, and why people continue to use it, and believe it works. But don’t take my word for this stuff… go research it yourself! “With respect to homeopathy, the evidence points towards a bogus industry that offers patients nothing more than a fantasy.” -Edzard Ernst, MD, (who used to be a practicing homeopath, and was the worlds first professor of …
“…when there isn’t a 500 ch. limit.” Are you saying you don’t have a word limit as posters have? Try to clarify your ideas and how you express them.
So, Zakie, we now have six points for discussion.
“Your goal is to try and expose my evil views and hatred of the human spirit, where all the world (you and fireicicle) can see. LOL”

You really picked the wrong alternative treatment for your debunking. You have clearly done zero research. There are three nationally recogonized homeopathic schools in the the US. One is up your way, in fact. People who graduate from them actually have specialized doctorate degrees. Homeopathy is the best studied and founded alternative treatment in the world. It is as recognized as much as acupuncture which can be used in surgery to replace anesthesia. Fell flat on your face with this.
I have done quite a bit of research. I am not sure how you could think that I haven’t, seeing as I have 20 studies listed in the info section, and know all about the history, claims, and beliefs behind homeopathy. It seems the only thing I “don’t understand” is that in homeopathy, anecdotes are considered valid evidence.
There are also TONS of “nationally recognized” theological seminaries. That doesn’t mean that God exits.

Poor Zakie,
So far not one single poster buys your nonsense. Must be pretty deflating to have it proven over and over again that you don’t know what you’re talking about.
I say let them drink water instead of actual medicine and waste their money on quacks. Modern average life expectancy age hasn’t risen because of water drinkers and woo woo treatments.
I was reading through this thread, and came upon something I found interesting. You write:-
“a self-serving attempt to dismiss a system of medicine that threatens your beliefs because it works on ENERGY and represents to you something you can’t accept — the human spirit.”
“works on ENERGY”? ” Human Spirit”?
I would be most interested for you to actually CITE your source for this.
Is this scientific?
You seem to talk very freely about “logic” “critical thinking” and “authority” of sources.
Homoeopathy is a theory of medicine dating back 200 years. Our knowledge of how our bodies work, chemistry, and diseases has advanced massively since then. And yet homoeopathy remains. It’s an anomaly. Luckily for it, it can’t do any harm because it is basically water. However, where people think homoeopathy is a substitute for actual medicine then it does become a problem. If homoeopathy actually worked it would be brilliant – unfortunately nothiing has been demonstrated.
the human body is far more electrical then it is chemical. in fact everything is energy. einstein came up with e=mc2 which means energy can be turned into matter and matter into energy. once you really understand the implementations of what this truley means ,then it is not hard to see what benefits there is to approaching health from a energetic stand point. this is why homeopathy has stood the test of time.
call it spirit,life force,chi, or simply energy. he”s talking about consioussness, the energy that is found inside each atom of the body. this is where all diseaese starts and dwells before it manifest into disease. it has been documented that people with split personalities that have diebeties ,the diebeties disappears when the personalities change. it is consciousness that turns energy into matter. this is backed up by quantum mechanics.
it is very funny that homeopathy skeptics attack it on the argument of”its just water” and “its to diluted to work” hoping that no one knows about the energetic properties of its success. until someone points it out and then they have a whole bunch of bogus rebutals ready to fire back. why was the energetic properties not addressed from square one? because from an energetic stand point it makes perfect sence to intelligent people, and that they cant discredit.
You got that right!
It IS just water, or sugar, or whatever the case may be. It admits it right on the packaging.
As for this “energy” stuff, you might as well say it is magic. You haven’t defined what sort of energy it is, how you test it, how we know it’s there, how we know what it’s effects are, how it interacts with anything else, etc. I have tried to get people to explain, but I am just met with insults.
Just cite a study or science article or something that discusses this supposed energy.
Spirit, life force, etc are traditionally defined as immaterial, and have no sort of physical properties. Plus, those things listed are completely made up, and have no basis in science. Energy, as defined by science makes no sense in how you are trying to use it.
Consciousness is a result of a physical brain. Not magical, immaterial, “energy” stuff.
Seriously guys, go look at any neurology or biology textbook. The stuff you are saying is nonsense.
what sort of energy? everything is energy,everything is made up of the same energy,there is only negative and positive.disease is energtic imbalances that are out of harmony with the natural balance of the body. homeopathy is simply frequencies that counter act against the imbalance and bring it back into balance. it realy is a simple basic appoach to science from an energetic stand point. you dont understand because you are still looking at it from a chemical stand point.
your problem is you have been brainwashed by mainstrem science. pretty much everything mainstream has been corrupted,censored, and controlled by the government ,believe it or not. neurology and biology have nothing to do with energy at least not in the sence of how it is approached in the test book. it does have to do with energy in the sence of the theories of einstein such as e=mc2 which means energy can be turned into matter and matter into energy.
You can’t claim that mainstream science is brainwashing people (this conspiracy theory nonsense alone removes any sort of credibility you had), and then also claim that Einstein’s theories are legit. e=mc2 IS mainstream science.
Energy is just the ability to do work.
In addition to that, atheists feel extremely threatened by any form of medicine that works on energy (homeopathy, acupuncture) expressly because it does work through energy rather than the material body thus giving scientific proof that there IS vital force, chi, ki, prana — human spirit — something they cannot accept.
Look at the other videos under More From: Zakiechan.
“energy is just the ability to do work” this statement prooves you havent the a clue of what e=mc2 means.
there not trying to brainwash you on everything. for the most part science is legit. but there are certain truths left out to protect power, and profits. there is a very interesting book called”101 things you will never learn from a text book” written by a man that created a device to run any engine without Gasoline. his book has nothing to do with health but it is a prime example how certain truths are kept from the general public to keep people from becoming too independant.
Ah, so I am only brainwashed about the stuff that doesn’t support your views. Gotcha.
Echinacea is NOT a homeopathic drug, its a herb that is mildly toxic. You have really no idea what you are talking about but like the way you sound, no doubt. However, by mixing aliens, creationism, and homeopathy you just being a moron not a rational sceptic. How about a real test? You take L:ycopodium 30C 3X/day for a week and see how that feels like. Chicken hah?
and your statement proves you never went to high school.
Energy IS defined in physics (mechanics) as the ability to perform work. Leave theory of relativity our of, it it is way way beyond what you know and has nothing to do with homeopathy. Nothing.
Better yet, try Glonoine 50M, 3 times a day. One day will be enough to make a lasting impression — big time headache! Look it up.
Well, Zakie, the odds aren’t improving are they?
