Homeopathy

What WHO has said about homeopathy:

Did you know that at various times the WHO (World Health Organisation) has: Called for closer incorporation of homeopathy into “western medical systems”
Stated that the “majority” of peer-reviewed scientific papers published over the past 40 years “have demonstrated that homeopathy is superior to placebo in placebo-controlled trials and is equivalent to conventional medicines in the treatment of illnesses, in both humans and animals.”
Said that, “Homeopathy seems well suited for use in rural areas where the infrastructure, equipment, and drugs needed for conventional medicine cannot be provided.”
Reported that Homeopathy is the second most used medical system internationally, with over $1 Billon in expenditures.

Hmmm … able to be integrated? Better than placebo? Equivalent to conventional medicine? Able to treat both human and animal diseases? Adaptable to difficult conditions and environments? Extremely popular? Homeopathy is truly versatile!

India to include Homeopathy within health insurance:

India is drafting a national policy for AYUSH and one of the key proposals will be to include ayurveda, unani, siddha and homeopathy under the universal health insurance scheme which will enable integrating traditional systems of medicine into the public health system.

Besides, it will also focus on the need for creation of infrastructure, research facilities and regulation to streamline AYUSH, an official source said. The final draft policy is likely to be circulated among ministries and states by June before it makes its way to the Cabinet, a senior official told. He added, the AYUSH ministry is targeting to launch the final policy latest by October 2016 .

“We are working on the draft policy. We have already circulated a note seeking suggestions from other stakeholders,” the official said. The proposed policy assumes significance because of the renewed and focused thrust from the top level in the government towards development of the AYUSH system as well as its integration in the healthcare delivery mechanism of the country , the official said. “This has been emphasized by the PM on several occasions,” the official said.

By bringing a national policy, the government also plans to promote India as a preferred AYUSH destination on the global map and harness the potential of the traditional system of medicine for improving primary and preventive health care.
The proposed policy will also set specific targets to be achieved within deadlines, bring regulation for education and research, as well as set standards for AYUSH medicines and treatment.

Taking traditional medicines to the international stage, India is expected to collaborate with the World Health Organisation (WHO) and

the United States for research and development of ayurveda, unani, siddha and homeopathy.
The UN agency have evinced keen interest in Ayush medicines and is slated to sign an agreement to this effect in Geneva soon, Ayush minister Shripad Naik informed Rajya Sabha
