“…Upadhyay (2018aUpadhyay ( , 2018b explained further that the presence of sourcedrug in high potency medicine is not possible except as impurity or by contamination. Investigating self-made test samples, Van Wassenhoven et al (2018) could not validate the findings of Chikramane et al (2010). Upadhyay (2017Upadhyay ( , 2018aUpadhyay ( , 2018b explained that to understand homeopathic medicine, one would have to abandon the materialistic view that the physical presence of its source-drug is necessary for therapeutic effects.…”

To understand evolution better, biologists should take into account the development of an organism's reaction to stressors (i.e.,the secondary action of a stressor) during development, and the subtle role it plays. Hormesis and homeopathic phenomena are just names to classify such secondry properties. These phenomena exploit the secondary action, below that of a pharmacological of toxin dose in a beneficial fashion. An intriguing examination of the biological behavior of the secondary action leads to the proposed theory. dilutions. Experimental support is emerging for this theory, and some suggestions have been given for testing and verification. As this theory concerns the evolution of the earliest medicine with an intrinsic role in the evolutionary process, it could influence the whole field of medical science.

“…2. High potency homeopathic medicines supposedly do not contain any molecules of the source-drug (Upadhyay, 2018a;Upadhyay, 2018b;Van Wassenhoven et al, 2018) but reported to cause hormetic activation (Chikramane et al, 2017).…”

“…The goals of this paper are to analyze the relations and to propose an experimental technique that has the potential of revealing these relations. These goals are important, because SDVSASs are relevant for toxicology, medicine, wastewater treatment and power generation (Konovalov et al, 2014;Ryzhkina et al, 2011;van Wassenhoven et al 2017van Wassenhoven et al , 2018Bandyopadhyay et al, 2017). To pursue these goals, firstly, I summarize the facets of the empirical and the quantum electrodynamic (QED) models of SDVSASs, i.e., only those facets required for analyzing the abovementioned relations.…”

Altering the bioactivity of aqueous solutions via serial dilutions is important for toxicology, medicine and wastewater treatment. Extensive research has shown that serially diluting aqueous solutions beyond a threshold concentration, combined with vigorous shaking after each dilution step, has several notable effects. (a) The solutes may serve as substrates, which facilitate association of water molecules (10 -5 and 10 -7 m sized associates). (b) The associates and the bioactivity of these liquids persist when these fluids are diluted below 10 -24 mol/liter. (c) The associates and the bioactivity of these liquids disappear when such ultra-diluted fluids are screened from ambient electromagnetic radiation. (d) The structural and physicochemical properties of these liquids are explainable within the context of quantum electrodynamics (QED). Hitherto, relations between the physicochemical properties of these liquids and their substrates have not been unveiled. There are no reports of statistically significant data that reflect physicochemical aspects of these liquids attributable to specific characteristics of substrates. Moreover, the aforementioned relations have not been theoretically derived. In this study, the relations are ana-lyzed within the context of QED. The analyses have helped elucidate the challenge of observing the impact of the substrate on the associates. The analyses also indicate that measuring the quantum Hall effect of these liquids holds the promise of unveiling the aforementioned relations.

The fact that many patients all over the world use homeopathic ultra high diluted succussed medicinal products, makes very interesting an explanation about the structure of them since until now only unconfirmed hypotheses are made. The present study focuses on the still unanswered questions about what happens with the chemical composition and the physicochemical properties of these products using Hypericum Perforatum L as a representative paradigm. All samples were prepared according to manufacturing procedures described mainly in S. Hahnemann's "Organon" and were examined by SEM, XRD, FTIR, DLS micro Mastersizer, DLS nano Zetasizer, UV-Vis and TEM. Measurements of electrical conductivity and pH were effectuated by the appropriate devices. During trituration of source material in alpha-lactose monohydrate some functional chemical groups present in source material disappeared and some others new ones came in view at the end of the process. A differentiation upon physicochemical properties between the source material and final triturating product was viewed, as well as micro-nanoparticles in colloidal form in all potencies derived trituration or extraction origin were present. The findings showed that the whole preparation process leads to the creation of micro nanoparticles something that for solid origin these products are created by trituration and for extract origin products these nanoparticles exist from the beginning.
