Dear VJ:

Welcome. I just read about the Bach flower remedies after you recommended them to different members here on this website today.

Bach flower remedies are solutions of alcohol and water—the water containing extreme dilutions of flower material developed by Edward Bach, an English homeopath, in the 1930s. Bach claimed that dew found on flower petals retain imagined healing properties of that plant. So for every emotional challenge a person has, you believe, there is a little bottle of liquid one can purchase. Consuming that liquid will cure the emotional challenge. Your advocated healing technique is to drink a liquid in a bottle.

I read that there is no scientific evidence for efficacy of this Bach-flower-remedy, that it was researched and no evidence of efficacy was found beyond the placebo effect, that is if a person believes drinking this liquid (alcohol and maybe a dew drop collected from the petals of a flower…?) will make him feel better, than he may feel better.

How do you reconcile the lack of scientific evidence with your promoted healing suggestion?
