HOMEOPATHY RESEARCH UPDATE

Clinical research is providing evidence of the efficacy of homeopathic medicines, and basic laboratory research is confirming the biological activity of highly diluted substances and helping the scientific community better understand their mechanism of action.

Physical Research

Thermoluminescence of ultra-high dilutions of lithium chloride and sodium chloride. Rey L. Physica A 323 (2003) 67-74

Ultra-high dilutions of LiCl and NaCl (10-30 g. cm-3) have been irradiated by X and g-rays at 77 K, then progressively rewarmed to room temperature. During that phase, their thermoluminescence has been studied and it was found that, despite their dilution beyond the Avogadro number, the emitted light was specific of the original salts dissolved initially.

Biological Research

Doutremepuich C et al Paradoxical effects of Aspirin.. Thrombosis 2012; 2012:676237

In the absence of COX 1, ultra-low doses of aspirin produce an antihemorrhagic effect not observed with intermediate doses. The absence of COX 2 induced a hemorrhagic effect that needs further research, probably originated in compensatory phenomena.
