Two New Homeopathic Research Studies... One from Germany, the Other from Switzerland
Posted by Dr. Lisa Samet N.D. on Oct 29th 2020
If you have read any of my papers on homeopathy, you know how strongly I feel that every family would benefit from using homeopathy.
Well, now we have third-party validation!
A number of German health insurance companies are offering integrated care that includes homeopathy (we know… if only in America!!), and that covers the reimbursement of homeopathic treatment.
As a result, there is objective insurance company data on homeopathy’s effectiveness.
So, is that care effective?
The patient data from this newly released study[1] says it is...
Data from 2,524 participants (1,543 in the homeopathy group) were analyzed. The primary effectiveness outcomes after six months were statistically significant in favor of the homeopathy group for migraine or headache, asthma, atopic dermatitis, and depression.
And from Switzerland…
Researchers in Switzerland[2] have just released a paper looking at data of more than 15,700 SECURVITA (a Swiss health insurer) insured persons who have been treated with homeopathy for at least three years. In this study, the researchers compared the homeopathy group to an equally large control group that did not receive homeopathic care—only ordinary care.
They found that those receiving homeopathic care fared significantly better and needed fewer conventional drugs than those not receiving homeopathic care. This fact was true for children and adults suffering from a very wide array of medical problems.
