  This sudo-science non sense has been shown not to work, so often that anyone who has a shred of critical thinking knows this is BS.

  The sad thing is that some people forego real medicine for this and have died.

  Anecdotes are not evidence

  That should be *sharing downloaders

  This is the first torrent I ever had to delete because of fake downloaders, ie trolls.

  If it doesn’t get going you know why.

  “Impossible cure.” This is the first accurately named “health” book you’ve uploaded. A pity the rest of it is hogwash.

  If homeopathy had any efficacy, you’d be able to overdose on it in some way other than drowning.

  If *YOU* seed it, it will get out. Regardless of what any “troll” does.

  This idea you have that a “troll” could kill your torrent is absurd. If it were so easy, publishers would have killed every torrent at birth.
  But at least this belief that an evildoer can put a hex on your torrent is consistent with the witch doctor medicine you promote.

  The author really is giving critics a gift with the hilarious title.

  Amy Lansky is a homeopath and author of Impossible Cure: the Promise of Homeopathy, which she promptly fails to deliver. Originally, Lansky was a computer scientist, but she transitioned to homeopathy after using it to “cure her son of Autism.” She explained it thusly: “As a scientist, I recognize that homeopathy is implausible. But I’ve seen it cure my son,” which is evidence that Lansky never had a clue about scientific reasoning or how evidence actually works to begin with. Her book has subsequently become a textbook used by homeopathy diploma mills, presumably exactly because of Lansky’s problem with distinguishing evidence from anecdotes based on personal experience.

  Lansky has been involved in numerous activities and organizations to promote homeopathy, among most notable being her broadcasting a monthly Internet radio show on Autism One called “There’s Hope With Homeopathy” – this one is notable, since it illustrates Lansky’s close ties with the anti-vaccination movement; and indeed, Lansky is a regular at antivaxx quackfest seminars – and on the executive board of the National Center for Homeopathy. She is, however, probably most famous for being one of Joe Mercola’s go-to people regarding homeopathy. Indeed, Mercola published Lansky’s article “Could this ‘forbidden’ Medicine Eliminate the Need for Drugs?” in favor of her cherished alchemist elixirs, an article so full of idiocy, lack of knowledge and understanding, fallacies, and conspiracy mongering that it at least should completely undermine any measure Mercola makes to appear respectable (though it won’t do that in the eyes of his fans, of course, and from the point of view of reality it was an impossible task to begin with).

  Diagnosis: One of the most influential pushers of one of the most idiotic strains of crackpottery there is. The fact that it never goes away is pretty illuminating with respect to how hard critical thinking really is.

  There have been several reviews of the scientific evidence on the effectiveness of homeopathy. The House of Commons Science and Technology Committee said there is no evidence that homeopathy is effective as a treatment for any health condition.

  There is no evidence for the idea that substances that can induce certain symptoms can also help to treat them. There is no evidence for the idea that diluting and shaking substances in water can turn those substances into medicines.

  The ideas that underpin homeopathy are not accepted by mainstream science, and are not consistent with long-accepted principles on the way that the physical world works. The Committee’s 2010 report on homeopathy said the “like cures like” principle is “theoretically weak”, and that this is the “settled view of medical science”.

  It is of note, for example, that many homeopathic remedies are diluted to such an extent that there is unlikely to be a single molecule of the original substance remaining in the final remedy. In cases such as these, homeopathic remedies consist of nothing but water.

  Some homeopaths believe that, due to the succussion process, the original substance leaves an “imprint” of itself on the water. But there is no known mechanism by which this can occur. The 2010 report said: “We consider the notion that ultra-dilutions can maintain an imprint of substances previously dissolved in them to be scientifically implausible.”

  Some people who use homeopathy may see an improvement in their health condition due to a phenomenon known as the placebo effect.

  If you choose health treatments that provide only a placebo effect, you may miss out on other treatments that have been proven to be more effective.

  At the moment we get “The image you are requesting does not exist or is no longer available.” instead of a pretty picture - sums it up nicely.

  Excellent audiobook, Although so-called modern medicine can do wonders but fails at so many levels, alternative solutions are required - we really need integrated medical care.
