Homeopathic medicines (prepared from many natural substances such as herbs and minerals) used in the times (200 yrs back) of Dr. Samuel Hahnemann are used even today because of their efficacy. They have been tested on healthy human beings. They are known, trusted, and reliable.

[Dr. Nancy Malik]

Homeopathy strengthens the immune system bybringing the endocrine- and nervous systems into balance, thus building resistance to sickness, thereby gradually tapering off from the long term use of drugs.

These are claims, not evidence.

Can you give real evidence to support any of these claims?
