Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Samuel Hahnemann, a German physician, developed homeopathy approximately 200 years ago. The allopathic approach to dealing with illness is frequently to suppress symptoms; for example, acetaminophen can be given to reduce a fever. In contrast, homeopaths believe that when symptoms are suppressed in this manner, the condition goes deeper into the body, making it ultimately more difficult to cure. Supporters of homeopathy point to two unconventional theories: - Like cures likethe notion that a disease can be cured by a substance that produces similar symptoms in healthy people. - Law of minimum dosethe notion that the lower the dose of the medication, the greater its effectiveness. Many homeopathic remedies are so diluted that no molecules of the original substance remain.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: D
Some recommendations include reducing the amount of processed foods; reducing/eliminating soft drinks (colas); reducing intake of refined and natural sugars; reducing intake of artificial sweeteners, including aspartame; eating organically grown foods; reducing intake of dairy products; and being aware of genetically engineered, radiated food.
