Millions of
Americans use homeopathic
drugs. Industry estimates
suggest sales of homeopathic
medicines in the United States
in 2003 of between $300 and
$450 million with a compound
average growth rate of approximately
8% per year. Homeopathic
medicines are therapeutically
active micro-doses of mineral,
botanical and biological substances.
Homeopathy stimulates the
body to "turn on"
its own healing mechanisms
in pursuit of restoring balance
in body systems.
They are reliable and safe
drugs, therefore considered
by many as an excellent first
choice when self-medicating.
Homeopathy has been used for
more than 200 years, building
a remarkable safety record
and generating a great body
of knowledge.
Today, homeopathy is used
by millions of patients in
more than 65 countries and
recommended by more than 400,000
healthcare providers.
