I agree with others that homeopathy is woo-woo.

One of the oft-cited claims by practitioners is that water has memory[1]

This sounds cute and it's probably true that water has some subtle hard-to-reproduce property of retaining certain configurations, but even if this were true, what's so great about it?

I'm not entirely convinced that a hard-to-reproduce configuration of water will affect my physiology, and if it does, then this would have to be put through scientific rigeur, which it is not, it's performed on blind faith that it works.

Don't you get it? It's all about the "ionic frequencies" which cleanse the body of "toxins"! ;-)
