VOICES
OF UNREASON: The NHS, alternative
medicine and Prof Baum
The move by Professor Michael Baum
and chums to get alternative medicine banned on the National Health Service is
an over-reaction so extreme that it borders on paranoia.
Prof Baum and 12 other signatories – including Edzard Ernst, Britain’s ‘first
professor of complementary medicine’ (family motto: ‘I have not come to praise
alternative medicine, I’ve come to bury it’) – have written to the UK’s primary
care trusts, urging them to stop offering alternative medicine.
Irony of ironies, the private letter was ‘leaked’ to The Times so that it could
be publicised on the day that Prince Charles made a call at the World Health
Assembly for a more integrated approach to medical care that embraced
complementary medicine.
On the face of it, Prof Baum’s exhortations seem like the voice of reason
itself. After all, why should public
funds be wasted on therapies that clearly don’t work? According to Baum,
“unproven or disproved treatments are being encouraged for general use in the
NHS”. This statement is true, as
virtually no surgical procedure has ever been scientifically tested, and most
drugs have very limited value, as GlaxoSmithKline has admitted.
But Baum isn’t talking about conventional medicine. He’s referring to homeopathy, which he describes as an
‘implausible treatment for which over a dozen systematic reviews have failed to
produce convincing evidence of effectiveness’.
This is untrue. In the past 24 years
there have been 180 controlled, and 118 randomized, trials into homeopathy,
which were analysed by four separate meta-analyses. In each case, the researchers concluded that the benefits of
homeopathy went far beyond that which could be explained purely by the placebo
effect. Another meta-analysis found
that 65 of the 89 trials analysed had produced an effect way beyond placebo.
Worse, Baum and co have uncovered an‘overt promotion of homeopathy in parts of
the NHS, including the NHS Direct website’.
This will come as a surprise to the NHS, whose website actually states:
‘It is difficult to assess how well many complementary therapies actually work,
as there is little clinical evidence available’. In fact, the NHS repeats Baum’s claim, and it certainly doesn’t
read to us as an overt promotion.
The statement may also come as a surprise to a medicated nation, 99 per cent of
whom have never been offered alternative medicine by their doctor or
consultant. (Untypical day in the oncology unit: ‘Hhmm, I was thinking of giving you aggressive chemotherapy for
your cancer that’s now in its third stage, but actually there’s a zesty little
homeopathic remedy called Rhus Tox that I’ve taken a bit of a fancy to.’)
Baum and chums also need to keep a sense of proportion. Of the £70 billion spent on the NHS every
year, just £3m has been spent on researching complementary therapies and, of
that, £324,000 on alternative cancer care.
Of course, the whole thing is a storm in a test tube. Prof Baum is not the most popular of figures in the NHS, mainly
for his continual attacks against the breast-screening programme. The NHS has gone on record to state that
Baum “would do well to check the relevance of the facts he quoted which are 25
years out of date. . .this is yet another case of Prof Baum launching
unnecessary attacks.”
Now we can add another one from the increasingly marginalized Baum and
Ernst.

See
these comments in an interview with Ernst for the British Medical
Journal in 2003 where he supports homeopathy which I sent in to the
newspapers:
In an interview with Geoff
Watts in 2003 entitled 'A Scientist in the Alternative
Camp', Professor Edzard Ernst stated:
"Our family doctor in the little village
outside Munich where I grew up was a homoeopath. My mother swore by it. As a
kid I was treated homoeopathically. So this kind of medicine just came
naturally. Even during my studies I pursued other things like massage therapy
and acupuncture."
"As a young doctor I had an appointment
in a homoeopathic hospital, and I was very impressed with its success rate. My
boss told me that much of this success came from discontinuing mainstream
medication. This made a big impression on me."
So I don't know what has happened in the past
3 years to cause him to change his mind.

made using only Dilution!!!!!!
Re.
WHAT'S THE ALTERNATIVE?
Homeopathic
medicines are not made using only dilution. Dilution alone would do
nothing whatsoever. We homeopaths are getting a bit sick and tired
of this inaccurate reporting.
All
homeopathic medicines are made by a process of dilution and SUCCUSSION
(potentisation through vigorous shaking between each potency - i.e. between a
1c and a 2c, between a 2c and a 3c potency. etc.) Most homeopathic
medicines can be bought in either 6c or 30c from Boots or from health
shops. Higher potencies of 200c and 1m (1000c) can be bought from
homeopathic pharmacies.
REPEAT:
DILUTION WOULD DO NOTHING WITHOUT THE VIGOROUS SHAKING (SUCCUSSION) (Nowadays
done by machines). Succussion brings out the formative intelligence of
the substance and imprints it upon the distilled water/alcohol medium.
60% water/40% alcohol. Alcohol as preservative.
ALSO
ALL NON-MEDICALLY TRAINED HOMEOPATHIC PRACTITIONERS UNDERGO A FOUR YEAR
TRAINING COURSE which includes Anatomy and Physiology as well as Pathology and
Disease. Doctors who becomes homeopaths train in less time.
