Homeopathic Medicine is ancient Nanomedicine
The Homeopathic Medicine (HM) which is now practiced is based on the concept that similar thing has got similar effect related to the development of disease and cure for the same disease. So, a material which is supposed to be the cause for disease development if given in smallest quantity can cure the disease. This is similar to the concept in Nanomedicine.So, Homeopathic Medicine can be called as ancient Nanomedicine.
It was considered as a form of no science when the Homeopathic medicine is practiced for a long time including me. Because the claim was unacceptable to anybody dealing with scientific proof. So, the HM in spite of practiced world over, its importance is still not acceptable to Modern science.
While dealing with two cases of cancer (Hodgkin’s disease, Carcinoma of Stomach) and small wound developed out of chemotherapeutic agents in the injected site, an observation was made by me that this wound has restrictive property related to progression of cancer and was presented at a Surgeon’s conference in 1992 at Tirunelveli. At that time a HM book was found to have a concept of the same namely “A wound created artificially will control tumours of the body”.
The idea of nano application for HM was a recent one some two years ago. When applying the concept of nanotechnology that if gold is in nanocrystal form, it will behave differently and is a liquid and transparent one made the extrapolation for the same concept for HM.
So, the observation made by the pioneers of HM is nothing but scientific and it needs more research to establish that HM is a form of Nanomedicine.
This is in conformity with the concept of Siddha Medicine as a form of nano medical application in certain treatment methods also to be compared and a new research methodology is to be created to explain the basic concept of HM.That will create a new and economical treatment for the masses in developing countries to use and benefit.
