The biological action of homeopathy
in immune cells

This proves that homeopathy acts on cells in the laboratory

Experiment :

During an allergic reaction, the immune cells of the human body called basophils, are activated and release histamine. Histamine is a molecule responsible for allergic clinical manifestations.

Step 1

Researchers isolated basophils taken from patients. These isolated cells were then placed in contact with the allergen in order to be activated.

 

Step 2

The basophils are separated into two separate groups: 

  • the first group is treated with water (control group)
  • the second group is treated with a homeopathic solution, namely a diluted and succussed solution that is prepared using histamine

 

Result :

The activation of basophils is inhibited in the group that is treated with the homeopathic solution as compared to the group that is treated with water. This inhibition leads to a reduction in the release of histamine, and therefore a decrease in the allergic reaction.

The presented data can, under no circumstances, be extrapolated to any property or clinical use in humans that would require additional studies.
