The homeopathic principle |
Sensational study of University of Leipzig
Karen Nieber, a professor of pharmacology, merely wanted to prove that homeopathy doesn't work. She argued that with potencies higher than X 23 not a single molecule of the original tincture could possibly be present, mathematically speaking, and that no pharmacological effect would be possible.
In
the search for an experimental setup in which any possible placebo
effect can be ruled out, she had a brilliant idea: she put a rat's
intestine in a fluid culture medium and used organic threads to fix it
to a sensor so that she could measure any shortening of the intestine
caused by cramps. Then she added a stimulant (atropine) to the fluid
culture medium to produce severe cramps in the rat's intestine. The
intestine shrank and the scales showed a strong traction.
When she then added belladonna X 90 to the culture medium, the intestine relaxed and the scales showed less traction. This proved that homeopathy is effective in the absence of any material substances - and in 2003 she won the € 10,000 Hans Heinrich Reckeweg award.

The connection to QUANTEC
QUANTEC too works with the homeopathic principle, which concerns more the transmission of information than material substances. And with QUANTEC we have been able to demonstrate several times that it really works.
