Guest guest Posted July 2, 2002 Report Share Posted July 2, 2002 there is no evidence in the research literature I can find for effective treatment of any disease using doses of herbs below the pharmacological threshold. Stephen, were you suggesting otherwise? I was pointing out three things: One, that low dosing, even to the homeopathic extreme, can have a measurable physiological effect; 2) In most cases, from my experience using a very broad spectrum of dosages, pharmacological dosing, generally in the range of 6 to 15 grams of extract per day, will be required to change the pathogenic nature of chronic disease, and 3) That some patients, depending on their level of sensitivity, will require that you start on a lower dose with less frequent dose consumption, and it can still be of therapeutic benefit. though I am skeptical of homeopathy, it does appear to have worked in my experience. However, a potentized remedy is different than drop doses of an unsuccussed tinture. Right? Resp: Very definitely. However I did not find a " like cures like " effect when potentized.
