AP on Homeopathy Theory: "Unverified By Mainstream Science" (2009-07-30):

In "Consumers Pay $34 Billion for Alternative Medicine" reporters Marchione and Stobbe state:

"a whopping $3 billion [annually] was spent on homeopathy -- highly diluted drugs made from natural ingredients. It is based on a theory unverified by mainstream science: that substances that create certain symptoms in healthy people are effective in treating the disease that causes the same symptoms."

Note: bravo.
