PRESENTATION
The HUMAN MICROBIOME, HOMEOPATHY AND CHRONIC INFLAMMATORY ILLNESS
SUN., OCT. 18 AT 10:45 AM
​
Knowledge of the human microbiome is derived from “cutting edge” gene-sequencing technology and might be one of the most important and far-reaching discoveries in the history of medicine. This is because it simultaneously demands both a reckoning of existing allopathic medical standards, and the confirmation of the paradigm change that began more than two hundred years ago with the development of homeopathy. The microbiome challenges many of the premises, assumptions and dogma of allopathic medicine and the societies that have embraced it as a philosophical worldview. This presentation will review the evidence-base of ecosystems science, microbiology and homeopathy that reveal why conventional medicine is responsible for a worldwide epidemic of chronic inflammatory illness.​
