... maybe you can kind of wrap our minds around what homeopathy is and why you think it works in ADHD.
53:37
Right.
53:38
So yeah, the first visit's always diet, homeopathic, and then second visit, especially if I have labs, it's a little more diet, and then yeah, multivitamin, fish oil, and usually a probiotic, especially what the labs will show.
53:51
And then iron if I need.
53:52
The way homeopathy works is that it's an interesting modality because it's the most popular and utilized medical modality in the world.
54:02
It's the most contentious medical modality in the world.
54:05
And the reason that is, just like you said, so you've seen these numbers after them, the 6X and the 6C and the 12C and the 30C, is because once you get past a 6C, which is the amount it's diluted, you're beyond what's called Avogadro's number.

So what, what does the data specifically say? You know, have they done clinical trials on this showing how homeopathy works on ADHD? I mean, have they specifically studied this?

Mm

... or a food allergy.

And I'll make, have you noticed anything if they, you know, and the common suspects would be dairy and gluten.
40:21
Um, and there's some good evidence with how they're degraded in the body and binding to opiate receptors and different than you or me who can digest them just fine.
40:29
So we talk all about these, and then I end up going through homeopathy, constitutional homeopathic medicine.
40:35
And, uh, like I said, doing this a million times, can't tell you how many times the teacher has gone back to the parent and said, "Oh, when did they start medication?" And the parents, 'cause they usually don't want to deal, they'll just be like, they just don't say, "Oh, I, I saw a naturopathic physician that did homeopathy and gave my son a multi and did some diet changes." They're, they just, you know, they'd rather just say whatever, because the teacher now sees an improvement.
41:03
So it's this therapeutic order of diet, you know, lifestyle, behavior, uh, and then bringing on the supplements as needed to get intercalated into cells, and then kind of these higher loading doses to saturate the tissues, replenish the stores, and then you can taper down.

Mm-hmm.
