"People often use homeopathic practices along with care from their medical doctor to deal with health problems, or to alleviate symptoms. Although I understand that there are many homeopathic remedies available, such as baking powder for itch and calendula for open wounds, there are no current circumstances where I would recommend a homeopathic treatment. I have not performed enough research on homeopathic remedies to be comfortable recommending them as an alternative to traditional medical treatment. I wholeheartedly believe in a modern approach to medicine and an individualized treatment plan. Still, I believe that homeopathy should not be used to treat health conditions that are chronic, serious, or could become serious."
