Homeopathy, the prime "quack medicine" that Quackwatch regularly targets is found to show better results than modern medicine, says a study.<BR/><BR/>News Telegraph of July 24Th has this to report;<BR/><BR/>Homeopathy wins in test with medicine<BR/>By Robert Matthews<BR/>(Filed: 24/07/2005)<BR/><BR/>Homeopathy has been proved more successful and cost-effective than conventional medicine in the first comparison of the two approaches.<BR/><BR/>Proof of its effectiveness has emerged from an extensive study of its use in treating chronic disorders such as back pain. The study ignored the question of how homeopathy might work and focused on how well it performs.<BR/><BR/>Researchers in Germany recruited more than 400 adults and children with long-term health problems ranging from sinusitis to insomnia and depression. Half were treated using conventional therapy; the other half were treated homeopathically. After six months, the condition of the patients treated homeopathically had improved significantly more, and more quickly, than the others while the cost for each was similar.<BR/><BR/>Read:<BR/>http://news.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2005/07/24/nhomeo24.xml<BR/><BR/>Also read the following for a similiar study conducted in the year 2001.<BR/>http://www.liebertonline.com/doi/abs/10.1089%2F107555301750164226Jagannath Chatterjeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18071235351469036588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10528990.post-1122043985191284232005-07-22T20:23:00.000+05:302005-07-22T20:23:00.000+05:30Just my comment.---------------Please visit this w...Just my comment.<BR/>---------------<BR/>Please visit this website to read how this "Quackwatch" website owner was busted;<BR/><BR/>http://www.quackpotwatch.org/opinionpieces/quackpot_barrett_crushed_in_fede.htm<BR/>----------------------<BR/>Quackpot Barrett Crushed in Federal Court - Again...<BR/><BR/>Opinion by Consumer Advocate Tim Bolen<BR/><BR/>June 25th, 2003<BR/><BR/>Some people never learn.
