Research Articles
Does homeopathy work? Of course it does! And there is lots of evidence to prove it.
One place to begin is this list of research references provided by the renowned University of Arizona CAM researcher Iris Bell, MD, PhD. Another is the extensive list of articles provided on this site (scroll down to view them).
Here are some more fantastic resources to investigate:
- A new homeopathy research database has been established by the Homeopathy Research Institute. It comprises randomised controlled trials (RCTs) of homeopathy that have been published in peer-reviewed journals. The website and database are accessible at www.homeoinst.org.
- A research list supplied by the Faculty of Homeopathy in the UK.
- Another CAM database (which can be searched just for articles pertaining to homeopathy) is the CAM-quest database.
- If homeopathy is just placebo, why does it work on animals? Check out this new database of clinical research in veterinary homeopathy: VetCR-database
- The Central Council for Research in Homeopathy (India).
- A downloadable file of research information developed by the European Council of Classical Homeopathy (European Network of Homeopathic Researchers).
- The German web site, Homeovision.
- The research site of the Canadian organization Homeonet.
- A site developed by Canadian homeopaths that highlights the extraordinary power of homeopathy and includes some research studies.
