Impressive Levels of “Trust in Homeopathy” Worldwide

PR Log (Press Release) – Apr 30, 2008 – An international market research company, Global TGI, has found surprisingly high numbers of people throughout the world who “trust in homeopathy.”  Trust in this system of natural medicine was found in 64% of people in India, 58% Brazil, 53%  Chile, 49% Saudi Arabia, 49% United Arab Emirates, 40% France, 35% South Africa, 28% Russia, 27%  Germany, 25% Argentina, 18% USA, and 15% Great Britain.  

   Dana Ullman, MPH, America’s leading advocate for homeopathy (according to Time magazine and 20/20), notes, “More significant than the large numbers of people internationally who trust homeopathy is that the people who use or advocate for it tend to be more educated, more financially successful, and include many of the most respected cultural heroes of the past 200 years.”

   Ullman’s newest book, The Homeopathic Revolution: Why Famous People and Cultural Heroes Choose Homeopathy, provides details about the use or advocacy of homeopathy by 11 U.S. Presidents as well as heads of state from England, Germany, Norway, India, and Mexico, seven popes and dozens of spiritual leaders, and hundreds of literary greats, sports superstars, world-class musicians, corporate CEOs, and celebrities.

   Ullman’s book includes a foreword by Dr. Peter Fisher, the Physician to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.  He asserts, “Homeopathy has always attracted people who could choose any type of health care.  In addition to the British royal family and many other monarchs, my new book shows that the cultural icons of the past who have used or advocated for homeopathy include J.D. Rockefeller, Charles Darwin, Beethoven, Chopin, Emily Dickinson, and virtually all of the American transcendentalists, while modern-day users include David Beckham, Tina Turner, Cher, Tony Blair, Gabriel Garcia Marquez (“Love in a Time of Cholera”), Brian Josephson, PhD (Nobel Prize-winning physicist), Coretta Scott King, and Cindy Crawford.”

   The history of homeopathic medicine in America is also notable, says Ullman, who asserts, “In early 1900s America was the worldwide leader in homeopathic medicine, when approximately 20% of physicians were homeopaths, and there were over 20 homeopathic medical schools, including Boston University, Ohio State University, University of Michigan, Hahnemann Medical College, and University of Iowa.”

   Virtually all of the leading American medical schools have courses in “integrative medicine,” the new word that describes the integration of various alternative and conventional medical treatments, of which homeopathy is a part.
