Fucking Christ, and people ask why that shit should be forbidden???
You're so used to reading bullshit, arm length ingredients lists that the homeopathy industry's bullshit "ingredients" list is ALL water and you don't realize it.
Each of the "30c" or above is PURE WATER. The whole bottle is pure water!
At 4c the average distribution of announced ingredients to water is 10 parts per billion of "active" molecules. At 12c you get an average of 0.6 molecule per litter.you most likely have way less than a hundred molecules per billion. That's pure water.
I'm not saying that it doesn't work -- I'm saying that instead of paying idk what price for it you could just use distilled or even tap water and get the same results, and not fund a bunch of absolute crooks.

Edit: oh and each of the "active" ingredients is not actually active. It's just a bunch of pseudoscientific bullshit that have been given the chance, thousands of times, to prove its efficiency, and NEVER managed to. Not explaining how they would somehow do it, no, just prove that what they're offering is in any way better than placebo. They've always been entirely incapable of proving it.
