In general, what's wrong to me is homeopathy is seen as something you can choose yourself without the need of any professional help. Homeopathy CAN work. This doesn't mean it will work in any case. And it's not even true it's safer or healthier to use natural meds than synthetic meds. Of course it is healthier to cure insomnia with herbal infusions than with sleeping pills, but in most cases natural remedies seem so much healthier just because people try them only for bland diseases. Also, the fact Nature produces only things that can be good for your health is a fairy tale. What about natural drugs? What about natural poisons? Some of them are used, in very little amounts, for remedies that are labeled as natural. Some of them are used in synthetic meds as well. They're not exactly "things that can only do good". They can be very bad if you take them carelessly just because you think natural must be ok for health.
