#Ayurveda and #Homeopathy has no clinical efficacy, probably more unknown toxic effects, yet to be studied. Homeopathy is at best placebo. #MedTwitter
Thread by @drsnehilmishra is good diplomatic discussion, but not scientific.
👇👇👇 What contribution?
Modern medicine practitioners need to stop this comparison business and concentrate on their work at hand in improving the science they practice, through clinical or basic science based studies that are practice changing.
#pseudoscience #science #MedEd
They would have been treated for diseases that would be self limiting and improved without the need for medicine. This is anecdotal. Such statements can be used by #quacks and #frauds to defend their fraud practice becoz a #modern doctor said so. We need to be careful with words. Image

A probiotics company called GoodBug that sells a variety of products containing various strains of bacteria with claims that their products promote weight loss, reduce PCOD symptoms, "cleanse the gut," improve IBS and "balance" hormones. They are lying.

Here is how... Image
2/15
Their products claims are based on "fictional" data, weak science or possible falsification of data. This is classically: "fringe science."

"Ideas that challenge established scientific views, considered unproven or speculative. Encompass theories that deviate significantly from mainstream science, lack empirical evidence, based on flawed premises."Image
3/15
Akin to other nutraceutical companies, the products display terms like "SCIENCE," "EVIDENCE," "SCIENTIFIC," etc... without actually providing any data to back those claims. Some do provide data, but mostly preclinical studies and never solid human studies that are rigorous. Image
