  • Notice during the dilution that they didn't use filtered pipette tips? Histamine stimulates a reaction at extremely low concentrations. By not using filtered pipette tips they risk contamination through the pipettor itself. Did he change gloves between dilutions? He's not wearing a HEPA filter mask to prevent contamination by his own histamines. Remember, we're talking about not having one molecule. Remember also that histamine is not the only molecule that can activate a basophil.

  • The placebo effect does work on animals and children. This is one of many things that scientists already know. So when homeopaths claim that placebo can't work on animals or children, they are just displaying their ignorance and bad science.

  • @dcs002 I'm sure they know what they're doing youtube scientist.

  • Scientists don't understand how a lot of things work. Fucking magnets, for example! Why should I believe them when it comes to homeopathy?

  • can't water active cells?

  • @emmabrwn6 Not only that they assume that the animal has no clue that it's being "treated" therefore it doesn't work. Buch of bullocks. 

  • I wonder what happens if you don't shake in between dilutions? If it is a crucial step, you should notice a dramatic change of results. Does anyone know if that has been researched? It all makes no sense..

  • @emmabrwn6 Do you have a link to research papers on that? I'd like to see how that works. Thank you! :)

  • mmmmmmmmm Rachel

  • Why does she/why would anyone NOT WANT there to be positive results?

    How does the laser effect the results. Is it possible that the laser could change the results?
