What do homeopaths like us to think about homeopathy - holistic, safe, trusted? Well, how about vivisection?
Even I didn’t consider laboratory animals would be used to test homeopathic remedies. Surely that would be anathema to a practice which preaches gentleness and holism. For years I believed the British Homeopathic Association (BHA) when they declared in their journal “Homeopathic medicines are NOT tested on animals and our Memorandum of Association clearly sets out that we may only ‘undertake and finance research into the problems of medicine WITHOUT vivisection’ 3(E)” [emphasis in the original].
Well, I was wrong – it appears their veterinary colleagues didn’t get the memo.
