| Popis: | The author describes the activity of homoeopathic high dilutions of tobacco to treat his familial facial seborrhoeic dermatitis induced by the hapten nicotine. A double-blind experiment against placebo and several treatments with continuous and single intakes of tobacco high dilutions led after a break to a late abrogation of dermatitis simulating a desensitization. These observations provide a new possible explanation for the placebo effect and facial seborrhoeic dermatitis is proposed as a new visible model for Benveniste's theory of ‘Memory of water’. |
