Re: Re: when parents ask about Aluminium metallicum 12X

[Guest guest]

I struggled with this a little bit until I realized that 12x is 1 part per trillion (1 followed by 12 zeros). In the state of CA where I live, municipal drinking water is considered safe if it contains less than 5 parts per billion of lead, mercury or aluminum. I think the levels of arsenic can be even higher. In essence, Unda #'s contain 1/5000th the amount of these metals that is considered safe in drinking water. I also like to quote the research done on rats who where given acute dosing of Arsenic followed by either homeopathic Arsenicum (I don't know the potency) or nothing. The rats given the homeopathic arsenicum had far greater excretion of arsenic in their urine and feces and a much better survival rate than the rats given nothing.These arguments work well for patients who aren't familiar with homeopathy. For those who are, the subject usually doesn't come up.I have a harder time with patients who believe that homeopathy (and usually Chinese medicine) are incompatible with their Christian beliefs. Any studies on Christians taking homeopathic remedies having a better rate of getting in to heaven? (That was meant as humor, I hope I didn't offend anybody).Sandro D'AmicoAuburn, CAI thought it was solutions diluted beyond 24x (or 12c) that no longer contained a single molecule of the original solution. At 12C the ratio is 10 to the power of 24. While Avogadro's # is 10 to the power of 23.Therefore 12X is still above Avogadro's #. Gleixner, NDMoncton, NB >> Hi!
