Hormetic effects of extremely diluted solutions on gene expression
2015, HomeopathyCitation Excerpt :This feature has undoubtedly contributed in the past to academic pharmacology to understating hormetic phenomenology. The relevance of the hormetic concept has also been opposed by those who, like homeopaths, should have found in it the keystone of their therapeutic tenets.24–28 As observed by Bellavite,26 the ‘holistic’ approach of homeopathy as a healing system goes far beyond the identification of specific information.
High-dilution effects revisited. 2. Pharmacodynamic mechanisms
2014, HomeopathyCitation Excerpt :This kind of immunoregulation by the ‘simile’ (‘isopathic’ approach according to the traditional terminology) is coherent with several other lines of evidence obtained in animals and in humans.91,160,191 Others have questioned whether there is a direct link between homeopathy and hormesis, arguing that homeopathy is a highly individualized therapeutic system, that homeopathic concentrations are often far below the Avogadro number and that hormetic substances do not require any special preparation.224 The relationship between hormesis and homeopathy has been recently discussed in a full issue of Human and Experimental Toxicology.
