my research show there is nothing in it but water and sugar and any active ingredient are so diluted by water that it can not be read by anything they have on earth. I did see the parents of a kid that died cause they would not take the kid to get real treatment, after kid died parents where charged with manslaughter, I find this very sad that these parents did this to this child.

cowpow one can get a DOCTOR OF Homeopathic medicine at a university. if this was all BS it surely would not have such recognition. futhermore many chemical medications are BASED ON the knowledge from homeopathic midine. a LOT of homeopathic medicines need actual PRECRIPTIONS.

why did those parents of the kid that die go to jail?? why did the kid die?
One can also get a doctor of Homeopathic medicine of the back of a match cover, and little or no active ingredients in these so called medication.
Regulation of Homeopathic Treatments
Homeopathic remedies are prepared according to the guidelines of the Homeopathic Pharmacopeia of the United States (HPUS), which was written into law in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act in 1938. Homeopathic remedies are regulated in the same manner as nonprescription, over-the-counter (OTC) drugs. However, because homeopathic products contain little or no active ingredients, they do not have to undergo the same safety and efficacy testing as prescription and new OTC drugs.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) does require that homeopathic remedies meet certain legal standards for strength, purity, and packaging. The labels on the remedies must include at least one major indication (i.e., medical problem to be treated), a list of ingredients, the dilution, and safety instructions. In addition, if a homeopathic remedy claims to treat a serious disease such as cancer, it needs to be sold by prescription. Only products for self-limiting conditions (minor health problems like a cold or headache that go away on their own) can be sold without a prescription.
