00:00welcome viewers to our channel truth and trends deepak on my way to the studio today i happen to
00:15see a youtube video where someone was saying that homeopathic medicines have no ability to cure
00:20diseases and that there's nothing in those medicines i remember you once said that homeopathy
00:27is a pseudoscience too but with millions of people in india taking homeopathic medicines and treatments
00:34are all of them wrong sonia that's exactly the question people feel better sometimes but does
00:40that mean homeopathy works or is it something else let's dig in well the basic principle of homeopathy
00:47is similia similibus curantio like cures like for example onion makes your eyes water so a diluted
00:56form of onion is used for runny nose doesn't that sound logical it sounds logical but science doesn't
01:02work like that just because two things look similar doesn't mean one cures the other modern medicine
01:09tests drugs with rigorous trials while homeopathy assumes similarity equals cure without proof okay
01:17but what about dilution homeopaths say the more you dilute a substance the more powerful it becomes
01:24they even shake the liquid and call it potentization and that's the biggest problem after a few dilutions
01:31there isn't even a single molecule of the original substance left it's just water or sugar chemistry
01:37says dilution makes things weaker not stronger but then how do so many patients feel better after taking
01:44homeopathy pills people even say it has no side effects unlike modern medicine that's because of the
01:50placebo effect if you believe a treatment works your brain can trick your body into feeling better and
01:58of course there are no side effects because there's no actual medicine in those pills but if it's just
02:05placebo then why does the government support it there are homeopathy colleges doctors and even an ayush
02:12ministry surely there must be something real behind it politics sonia millions of people believe in it so
02:19governments keep funding it for votes also some so-called homeopathy medicines are actually modern
02:25drugs rebranded that creates even more confusion but many developed countries have stopped funding
02:32homeopathy because it's not science i see so homeopathy is more about belief than real medicine people feel
02:40better because of placebo not because the medicine actually works exactly modern medicine is not
02:46perfect but it is based on evidence tests and results homeopathy has survived on faith tradition
02:54and clever marketing but science is clear dilution and vital energy are not medicine then the real verdict
03:02is homeopathy is not scientific and relying on it for serious illness can be dangerous better to trust
03:08real tested medicine well said believe in science not sugar pills jay hind jay hind
