Experimental evidence in support of the biological effects and physical basis of homeopathic potencies
Nirmal Chandra Sukul
ABSTRACT
Background: Homeopathic potencies 12 cH and above cross the Avogadro number and, for this, do not contain any original drug molecules. Two major problems involved in the scientific study of potencies are (1) understanding the physical basis of potencies and (2) demonstrating the biological effects of potencies. The present study aims to address these questions.
Conclusions: Homeopathic potencies could be detected and differentiated by their electronic spectra.
Potencies show marked effect on animals, plants, ex vivo effect on isolated organs and in vitro effect on
enzymes.
Keywords: Homeopathic potencies, electronic spectra, ethanol intake, adjuvant arthritis, filariasis,
