The Complexity of the Homeopathic Healing Response Part 2: The Role of the Homeopathic Simillimum as a Complex System in Initiating Recovery from Disease.

摘要: Background Evidence indicates that homeopathic medicines are complex self-organizing nano-scale systems generate unique low-intensity electromagnetic signals and/or quantum coherence domains. In Part 1, we reviewed relevant concepts from adaptive science on living for the nature of healing. Aim In 2, discuss complex-system medicines. The aim is to relate evidence and properties model Methods Results The work a narrative review, with complexity development Studies suggest manufacturing generates nano-structures source material, silica silicon dots if succussed in glassware or including botanical materials; carbon plastic any organic materials, as well solute-induced water carrying medicine-specific information. On contact physiological fluids (e.g., blood plasma), there additionally adsorb individualized patterns recipient's own proteins their surfaces create protein corona coat (shell). Thus, simillimum may personalized biological identity upon administration. Consequently, medicine can serve an individually salient, self-similar information carrier, whose constituent pattern reflects individual's current internal state health/disease. Homeopathic emerges interactions component parts source, containers, solvents (lactose, water, ethanol), adsorbed biomolecule layers plant animal sources, biomolecules recipient. Low doses these act signaling agents initiate hormesis via network-wide responses by recipient system, rather than conventional pharmaceutical drugs. Biological mediators include inter-connected network elements cell danger/damage defense system: example, gene expression, reactive oxygen species, heat shock proteins, cytokines, macrophages, T-cells, associated brain–immune system mediator pathways. Conclusions Every involving multiple inter-connected, interacting components, emergent properties. Simillimum individualization derives formation shell surface body fluids. such processes mobilize endogenous healing disease state. capacity self-organization self-similarity key future research systemic during treatment.
