Homeopathy?
Is it normalized? I very rarely hear anyone taking homeopathic medicine or advocating for it. But I live in Norway, so maybe this is a thing elsewhere?
I agree that I never ear anyone I know tell me they use it, but they are sold in every drug store here in Canada so people must buy them, otherwise they would be bankrupt.
Maybe there's better examples. Maybe glasses. Like 500$ for plastic. More people are buying online though these days.
It is very normalized in the south of Germany, but generally Germany is very pro homeopathy so so it is even subsided by the public health care system.
That is completely crazy to me. I guess the matter differs wildly based on location.
Have you ever seen stuff like Occillococcinum or anything made by company Boiron? They don't advertise it as homeopathy, so even if you saw a homeopathic sugar pill you wouldn't necessarily know. That's a part of the scam
In Germany, a lot of medicine can only be sold in very regulated apothecaries. Those stores are allowed to recommend and sell homeopathy. There's even a state-exam for homeopath. Though for that you only have to demonstrate you won't kill your patients, not that you can actually help.
