Analysis Of The Article 'Like Treat Like'

Decent Essays
The Article “Like treat like” written in the Magazine Occupational Health back in October 2005 by Liz Hall is relating to a report called the Lancet in which finalizes the skepticism towards the idea of the remedies being as effective as they said. Because the ingredients are diluted many times to the extreme of literally getting crumbs from it to administer to the patient. Yet, 1991 research has proven the efficacy of the treatments. As they carried out the treatment given to a patient with fibromyalgia. What I learned from this article and these findings is that homeopathy has been a subject of controversy and it will continue regardless of the efficacy on curing certain illness.
