The production of antibodies indicates developing immunity against a specific infectious agent. The effectiveness regular vaccines are measured by their ability to stimulate the immune system to produce antibodies. As the dangers and limitations of conventional vaccines continue to come to the light ( see "Deadly Immunity" by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., published in Rolling Stone magazine) it is encouraging to find there are possible alternatives.
Homeopathic nosodes have been used to prevent infections for over 200 years. But little direct research has been done to prove their effectiveness. A recent study published in the Journal of Scientific Exploration has shown homeopathic dilutions of tularemia gave significant protection against infection of tularemia in mice -- here is the link. Though all but one (1000C) of the homeopathic potencies given afforded protection, two potencies (30C and 200C) actually stimulated the production of antibodies. This is a very promising area of research in the prevention of infectious disease, and suggests that homeopathy could play a powerful and important role in the future prevention of epidemic disease.
