Homeopathic allergy relief for pets | |
Homeopathy is known as an alternative medicine that was developed in the 18 th century. The main idea is that to produce a medicine for a disease they ingest substances that create same kind of symptoms as an infected patient has to a healthy test subject. The same method is used on humans and nowadays also on animals. The main drug invented like that are the homeopathic allergy reliefs for pets as believe it or not animals can also have allergies like humans do.
In the development stage the remedy is diluted many times as the homeopaths believe that his removes all of the negative effect of the remedy. Nevertheless, the necessary qualities remain due to the diluents. For that purpose, often water, sugar and alcohol are used. The dilution process is so long that sometimes the final product looks the same as pure water, sugar or alcohol and also the laboratory tests do not show any difference. However, the homeopaths still claim that it has some affect on the patients. The exact treatment depends on the particular patient under investigation and the physical and psychological condition of him or her, this is also the same case for homeopathic allergy reliefs for pets where the treatment is developed according to the particular animal.

2008-03-28 21:49 | What the above doesn't say is that homepaths claim the greater the dilution the more powerful the "medicine". The above would have been more complete to note that homepathy is chemically impossible and flies in the faces of hundreds of years of scientific research. Numerous experiments show that homeopathy is no better than placebo and is in fact the same thing.
What is perhaps most appalling is that in a recent poll every homeopath in Britain said that he or she would recomment a homeopathic preparation as an alternative to a proven anti-malarial product.
