We just submitted our paper for peer-review which analyzed 134 "popular" Homeopathic products sold in the Indian market funded from our own pockets (we spent quite a bit on this one).
This is our penultimate self-funded pro-public health project before we wind down self-funded studies in our clinical research unit. [The ultimate project, I will update at a later date]
Our results are mind-blowing and deeply concerning. I hope the media will watch out for this one, because it is really important for Indian (as well as global) public health.
I'll update as soon as we can get it peer-reviewed & published (which seems very difficult, considering the controversial, but needful nature of the work).
My team has always looked at generating empirical evidence to help people measure health-related information, rather than blindly criticize or opine. We hope this work will also educate and inform.

#craniosacral therapy is very similar to cranial #osteopathy. Both are based on the idea of manipulating "cranial rhythms", which is complete nonsense. Here is yet another paper that found no evidence of effectiveness, this time for headaches: painmanagementnursing.org/ar…

Hello, please dont consume mercury.
It will kill you.
Also please dont handle mercury with your bare hands. It is one of the most toxic substances known to humankind.
Also, mercury is not medicinal. It is poison.
Conman Guru speaking good English in Gibberish here is shredding chemistry and biology into pieces, it hurt my eyes and ears.
I could hear my anatomy teacher whimper while I was watching this video.
In our paper on Ayurvedic herbals, presence of mercury in herbal products was directly related to higher risk of dying from liver injury.
Please see here: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/2947…
Also, one cannot solidify pure mercury at room temperature. One can, if you make it into an amalgam. Watch here: youtube.com/watch?v=AZPUcKTe….
Also, Siddha is an utter nonsense pseudoscientific medical system based out of South India. It is as rubbish as Ayurveda but has excellent conmen as its poster boys like this one here.
All "medicinal" solid mercury sold on this guys website and by Siddha practitioners is not mercury, but mercury amalgams. Dont fall for this bullsh*t.

As someone diagnosed and living with cognitive decline, removing the ticket office would also impact my reliance on asking for help and support and having a ticket. It's already challenging enough to navigate the world and stay focused.
