Proving and therapeutic experiments in the HomBRex basic homeopathy  
research database
R Van Wijk and H Albrecht

The HomBRex database of basic research experiments on homeopathy  
indexes studies on biological systems including animal, human, plant,  
fungi and microbial organisms. Its objective is to index proving and  
therapeutic experiments on the Similia Principle and the role of  
dilution and succussion of substances in experimental biologic  
systems. The database was analyzed when it contained more than 1100  
experiments in more than 900 original articles.
The database provides information on 732 experiments using healthy  
human, animal and plant systems. These experiments were divided into  
‘ideal’ model proving (475) and prophylactic (257) categories. It also  
includes 397 therapeutic experiments, in which an effect of a  
substance was tested in a diseased or disturbed system. A large number  
of substances were used, including high and low dilutions and potencies 
—191 substances in proving, 130 in prophylactic and 112 in therapeutic  
experiments.
In general, basic research in homeopathy does not directly investigate  
the Similia Principle. We conclude, that from the overwhelming variety  
in organisms, diseased states, and substances, only a limited number  
of biological systems and states should be selected to study the  
Similia Principle.
