Health Quotes

July 20, 2006 by Werner Absenger

Listen to the Exhortation of the Dawn!

Look to this Day!

For it is Life, the very Life of Life.

In its brief course lie all the

Verities and Realities of your Existence.

The Bliss of Growth,

The Glory of Action,

The Splendor of Beauty;

For Yesterday is but a Dream,

And To-morrow is only a Vision;

But To-day well lived makes

Every Yesterday a Dream of Happiness,

And every Tomorrow a Vision of Hope.

Look well therefore to this Day!

Such is the Salutation of the Dawn!

Kalidasa

The History of Homeopathy IX

July 19, 2006 by Werner Absenger

The Fall of Homeopathy I

Now more on the History of Homeopathy by taking a closer look at the Fall of Homeopathy. It is amazing that homeopathy survived at all in spite of the AMA’s attempts to effectively suppress homeopathy. In order to make themselves look like the “good guys”, the AMA was open to join for graduates from homeopathic medical schools. One cave-eat; they had to denounce homeopathy or at least quit practicing it. (1) The AMA also dropped the consultation clause, not because they no longer were ill disposed to homeopathy, but because they had better, more practical ways in defeating homeopathy.

The History of Homeopathy VIII

July 18, 2006 by Werner Absenger

The Rise of Homeopathy III

The series of The History of Homeopathy continues with the third installment of The Rise of Homeopathy and the most important reason why it gained such popularity, which was the success of homeopathy in treating varying epidemic diseases that rampaged through American and Europe in the 1800s.

The Homeopathic Research of David Reilly, M.D.

July 17, 2006 by Werner Absenger

What do three positives in a row mean?

Here is an interesting paper documenting Dr. Reilly’s research on homeopathy. He performed a study three times because he thought each previous result to be tarnished in some way. Turns out that with this approach the authors concluded: “Either homeopathy works or controlled clinical trials do not.” Read the details about the study, sorry, the three studies, below.

Health Quotes

July 9, 2006 by Werner Absenger

The best six doctors anywhere

And no one can deny it

Are sunshine, water, rest, and air

Exercise and diet.

These six will gladly you attend

If only you are willing

Your mind they’ll ease

Your will they’ll mend

And charge you not a shilling.

Nursery rhyme quoted by Wayne Fields

What the River Knows, 1990

Health Quotes

July 3, 2006 by Werner Absenger

I see rejection in my skin, worry in my cancers, bitterness and hate in my aching joints. I failed to take care of my mind, and so my body now goes to hospital.

What Will 21st Century Medicine Be Like?

July 2, 2006 by Werner Absenger

What Will 21st Century Medicine Be Like?

I just came back from my favorite java whole inspired by a discussion several friends of mine and I had. It was about medicine and what the medicine of the future will look like. What a great afternoon to hang out, chill and shoot the breeze about healthcare and listen to different visions of how medicine for the 21st century will take shape. Let me start by saying that the best way to understand your own culture is to visit another culture.
