Arguments against Ayurvedic and Homeopathic Drugs.
3 min readApr 21, 2023
When people claim to have been treated with Ayurvedic or homeopathic medicine it is because of 4 reasons.
- They were misdiagnosed. They did not originally have the disease itself for which they had taken Ayurvedic medicine.
- They were taking normal scientific medicine for a long time. Then they stop taking it and start a course in Ayurvedic medicine. They feel well not because of the Ayurvedic medicine but because of the delayed impact of the regular medicines that they have ingested.
- Human body has an internal mechanism to treat itself. Left untreated, you will be able to recover from the most common diseases. While Ayurvedic medicines have no impact on these diseases at all, regular scientific medicines might actually help you to recover faster.
- In the rarest of rare cases, though people don’t get cured of the diseases entirely, they feel a slight relief from their symptoms after consuming Ayurvedic medicines. The reason for this is the Placebo effect. Although Ayurvedic medicines have no more impact than a sugar pill on a disease, these medicines sometimes make people’s brains believe that they are consuming actually medicines. Dues to this, they very rarely experience slight relief from the symptoms of a disease, while the actual illness remains untreated.
Safety Concerns and Regulations for Alternative Medicines.
- Our body is made from chemicals. In fact, we can make DNA, which is our body’s building block inside a lab by mixing some chemicals. Medicines and vaccines are also chemicals. These are specially manufactured chemicals designed to help out bodies in a certain designated way.
- All scientific medicines and vaccines go through thorough scrutiny and extremely thorough regulations, which all ayurvedic medicines and homeopathic medicines do not go through.
- All scientific medicines and vaccines are thoroughly tested before they are certified by government agencies to be sold to the public and all pseudoscientific medicines such as Ayurvedic and homeopathic do not go through such testing and such government certification. Standards for these alternative medicines are much, much, much lower. In general, on average it takes up to 12yrs for a new vaccine to be introduced in the market. Ask yourself how long it takes for an alternative medicine to be launched and sold to the masses.
- All scientific medicines and vaccines have side effects. But, these actual medicines are only approved by the government, when 1 in a lakh or 1 in a million people ever has to encounter such side effects. On the other hand, there is no or little certification required for Alternative medicine.
- You wouldn’t believe it, but the amount of people developing terminal diseases due to the ingestion of Alternative medicine is much, much, much higher than 1 in a million or even 1 in a lakh. Many Ayurvedic medicines are known to possess heavy mettle intoxicants which are known to cause liver and kidney damage.
- As a matter of fact, it is been proven in peer-reviewed research that the Covid Pandemic came with the onset of a silent Liver failure epidemic in India because a lot of people consumed Giloy, which has intoxicants present in it which are known to enhance liver failure in patients.
