 Americans spend about $3 billion on homeopathy every year. I've talked previously about the near total lack of scientific evidence supporting homeopathy, but maybe I was wrong. To dismiss it as just a waste of money, maybe it can be even worse. I was surprised to read this new case report published in the European Journal of Pediatrics, a young girl almost killed by homeopathy. An overdose of a homeopathic remedy might seem a contradiction in terms, but just because there's no better than a sugar pill doesn't mean you can stuff babies full of sugar pills. Many homeopathic pills are made of xylitol, which can have a laxative effect and cause diarrhea, which if untreated in an infant can turn into severe, life-threatening metabolic acidosis and lantern in the ICU. Hence the title, Too Much of Too Little. Homeopathy is also something you might want to keep away from Fido.
