<description>The government has released its eagerly anticipated response to
the Science and Technology Committee's Evidence Check on

and Wendy M. Smith, M.D. in their recently published study, "The

<title>Homeopathy: Something Smells Fishy!</title>
<link>http://tinyurl.com/2d6nshp</link>
<description>I have friends who are embracing the whole 'la vi boheme' thing
and shun modern medicine which they claim cause all kinds of
side effects and instead turn to things like homeopathy. Now
homeopathy is great in theory but the hard reality is our
medication usually goes through all kinds of tests by bodies
like the FDA before it is released to the public. Yes, the
testing isn't always right and there have been unfortunate times
that medication has been recalled from the market because it
turns out it causes side effects that were unknown! BUT any
testing -in my humble opinion- is better than no testing.</description>

<description>The cold remedy Zicam, which contains a form of zinc, is
marketed as a homeopathic medicine. But the new analysis showing
that nasal gels and swabs containing zinc have likely caused a

Zicam truly homeopathic?</description>
