Homeopathy is the idea that:
(1) The more you DILUTE a drug, the STRONGER it gets. So many of the most powerful remedies are so diluted there are literally ZERO MOLECULES of the original drug. Homeopathy says that the “water remembers the drug” as such.
(2) Law of similars – if you are vomiting, give a medicine that makes you vomit. Two things cannot make you vomit at the same time, so the medicine will knock out the first thing.
So, it’s crazy, no way that would work. As for your dad, based on your broken English, paternal advanced degree and homeopathy interest — I’m guessing you’re Indian? Indian homeopathy, I don’t know a lot about it other than 99% of them love homeopathy. Seems more a cultural thing than medical . Anyone who has an advanced degree over there also does a bit of homeopathy too. I also don’t know if their “homeopathy” is the same as American homeopathy (above).
