Homeopathic treatment
Remedies are sold over the counter without a physician prescription (approved by the Israeli Ministry of Health). No toxicity or side effects are expected to be observed, potencies (dilutions) of substances beyond 7C (7 dilutions, each 1:100) do not contain a sufficient number of molecules of the original material to be pharmacologically active. Since the remedies being used in this trial are diluted at 30c and 200c, levels that are way beyond Avogrado's number, so no original material is expected to be found. This fact was verified utilizing high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) method. Due to those facts, most scientists do not accept that these remedies have any biological effects and consign any positive response to the placebo effect.
