Homeopathic

Homeopathy is a system of medicine based on the belief that the body can heal itself. It uses natural substances, which are specially prepared, to stimulate the body towards homeostasis, or balance. Homeopathic medicines always have something called a potency after the name (e.g., 6X or 30C), which tells how many times the remedy has been potentized. The letter signifies the rate of dilution (e.g., X = 1 in 10 dilution, C = 1 in 100 dilution). In homeopathy, the greater the rate of dilution, the higher the potency.
