Homeopathy 'treatments' must be labelled to say they do not work, US gov orders
This is long past due.<p>I&#x27;m on a facebook list for dads, and after it came out that a homeopathic teething gel <i>killed 10 kids</i> (<a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.nytimes.com&#x2F;2016&#x2F;10&#x2F;19&#x2F;health&#x2F;teething-remedies-infant-deaths.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.nytimes.com&#x2F;2016&#x2F;10&#x2F;19&#x2F;health&#x2F;teething-remedies-i...</a>) someone asked if it was worth the risk to keep giving to his kids, since it worked.<p>I tried to explain to him that homeopathic medicine is either 1) Nothing, if they diluted it &#x27;correctly&#x27;, or never bothered to put the poison in there to begin with or 2) Poison, if they failed to dilute it properly 3) Maybe some kind of actual medicine, in which case it&#x27;s not actually homeopathic.<p>There are no other options.<p>He responded: &quot;Well, it seemed to work for my kid, so I&#x27;m going to keep using it.&quot;
