Homeopathy and cardiovascular disease

Abstract

Alternative empiristic Celsus medicine, based on a global concept of man and nature, giving much importance to spiritual and psychic factors and giving rise to the tendency to face illness by fear, trying to stimulate an organic reaction against the disease and often ignoring the ultimate cause of the disease itself. This approach is very important because it is directed toward the comprehension of natural laws, with an effort to find a therapy strictly related to them. This tendency, which also gave rise to alchemical research, was not and is still not immediately comprehensible. Homeopathy is within this range: it can be slow and empirical, based mostly on the intuition of the doctor, but is often successful, providing long-lasting results without side effects and at a low cost.
