Lack of knowledge shocks

Letters

Editor:

I have had to restrain myself a number of times from penning rebuttals to articles written by Dr. Paul Martiquet in your Health Matters column. But I was appalled and could no longer remain silent upon reading his recent scathing attack on homeopathy – a safe and extremely effective choice of medicine used by the Royal Family and millions of people worldwide.

I raised my sons (now in their 40s) on homeopathy. As children they never required antibiotics or saw the inside of a hospital. I have had falls, injuries, trauma, eased within minutes by homeopathic remedies. Several dentists here on the Coast offer their patients homeopathic choices. Dr. Martiquet’s lack of knowledge of the science and principles behind this profound healing modality shocks me. How can millions of people be wrong?
