Aug 8, 2010 - @zalm Id really have to disagree with that there are a lot of natural analgesics that don't harm you or very little harm to you at all, while others do cause a lot of damage. synthesized ones can cause a lot of damage because your body doesn't know what to do with them after the initial effect. there are also a lot of side effects with these new synthesized analgesics. seriously listen to a drug ad of today vs 20 years ago there are 30 more and some of them are worse then the thing your curing.

Aug 15, 2010 - Just because homeopathy is a load of hogwash, that's no reason to stop people who genuinely believe in homeopathic medicine from using it. "Placebo Effect" peoples!

Aug 21, 2010 - The only reason people believe in homeopathy is because their brains are diluted to 1 part in 1000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000... (known in homeopathetic circles as a '30X' remedy).

Aug 21, 2010 - @TheFoolishNutter The problem with Placebo medicine is that they may choose to not use real medicine. If a child has Whooping Cough, a homeopath would tell them to take a homeopathic remedy, and not regular medicine. That's basically murder. Fake medicine should never be applied, especially when there's a real treatment.

Aug 23, 2010 - Natural medicines had millions of years to create the complex chemicals within them. They also don't have all the insane side effects of modern medicine which we only half-ass test. Have you ever listened to the side effects of these medicines, almost more side effects in their ads than content. Thank you god for creating all the cures ahead of time. Oh yeah, penicillin comes from bread mold :D . Now if only we didn't refine it and remove all the other chemical that used to be in it to balance

Aug 24, 2010 - @rujikin Yeah. Everyone knows that plants only have beneficial effects .....

Aug 24, 2010 - ha ha ha. What a crock homeopathy is!

Aug 28, 2010 - @rujikin Just because it has come from something naturally occurring doesn't inherently make it safer to use than something synthesized in a lab somewhere. Oh and spoiler alert: God isn't real.

ThatAdelaideGuy Says:

Aug 28, 2010 - @rujikin They tested all the Herbal medicines, and the ones that worked became Regular Medicine.

Aug 28, 2010 - @SUPERMARIOBROTHERS13 god your so stupid. They are referencing the Kyoto Protocol which is a gathering of leaders who talk about fighting global warming. MARIO AND NINTENDO HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.

rujikin Says:

Aug 29, 2010 - @Axthursby Haha! Ever heard of MSG? Its full name is Monosodium Glutamate. It naturally occurs in almost all meats, cheese, and thousands of other foods. In nature 99% of it occurs in a certain chemical form (which I will call the left hand form). Only problem is the MSG we produce and put into foods is in its right handed form. We produce its reverse form which is unable to be processed by your body. Instead of being harmless now it accumulates in your body and causes a variety of problems...

rujikin Says:

Aug 29, 2010 - @ThatAdelaideGuy Not in the USA. FDA has very strict rules against natural medicine and very loose rules on synthetic drugs/food. I still cannot believe they let aspartame, artificial sweetener, be approved after it failed approval 3 times due to failed test results or failure to present ANY test results.

rujikin Says:

Aug 29, 2010 - @Axthursby Modern science has been unable to duplicate the highly beneficial oils from the rosemary plant. The reason for it is because the rosemary plant has about 30 active chemicals, in varying doses, in its oils that all work in synergy. We are looking for ONE magical cure all chemical in it to duplicate. Alright then god argument. Tell me something. Who created the laws/physics of this universe and caused the initial spark for the creation of the universe? What caused the big bang?

PullyElbow27 Says:

Aug 29, 2010 - @ThatAdelaideGuy Incorrect. Cannabis is an extremely effective herbal medicine which can help people with a LOT of ailments. Unfortunately, because the United States is ran by money-hungry pigs, it's currently illegal under federal law.

Aug 30, 2010 - @johnnye87 I think you just won at Youtube.

DarkZerkerX Says:

Aug 30, 2010 - @PullyElbow27 No...the US was ruined by a money-hungry monkey. Just look at Bush's face...if you can survive the first encounter that is.

PullyElbow27 Says:

Aug 30, 2010 - @DarkZerkerX Kudos.

DarkZerkerX Says:

Aug 30, 2010 - @PullyElbow27 YEP! Oh and Cannabis is the plant that makes weed right?

PullyElbow27 Says:

Aug 31, 2010 - @DarkZerkerX Cannabis is the plant that can make both the buds (flowers) that people smoke for either medical or recreational purposes, or it can create hemp, the extremely durable fibre that SHOULD be used in place of cotton, nylon, etc.The answer to your questions: yes.
