Paola Brown says this is the real reason why Big Pharma doesn’t like homeopathic medicine

# weekly medications pharmaceutical industry patent law big pharma fda fda regulation foia requests homeopathic remedies homeopathy medical efficacy medical evidence monthly medications paola brown patentable medicines

Paola Brown asserts that Big Pharma opposes homeopathy primarily because it cures patients like herself after 23 years, eliminating the need for lifelong medication and causing significant revenue loss. She highlights that homeopathic remedies are unpatentable, preventing corporate profit mechanisms, while dismissing FDA opposition as a philosophical excuse lacking evidence of harm, noting FOIA requests reveal no safety incidents. Ultimately, this financial threat to pharmaceutical profits drives regulatory hostility against effective, non-patentable healing alternatives. [Automatically generated summary]

Why Pharma Won't Cure You 00:01:20
	What's the objection?
	Why is, you know, I can see quickly there isn't a ton of money to be made by large corporations in this industry.
	I'm getting that sense here.
	It is a smaller industry compared to big pharma, the pharmaceutical industry.
	But is there a mechanism by which pharma could make big money?
	Well, if you think about my story, I've been cured of my disease for going on 23 ish years.
	Think about the amount of drugs that I have not taken, you know, the years of weekly, monthly medications that have been lost because I was cured.
	And so, I do, while I don't think homeopathy takes a big chunk of the market on a monthly basis necessarily, the amount of people that are healed and cured by it, you're losing customers.
	So, you know, maybe that's do patent are they patentable?
	Well, so there we go.
	Yeah, they're not patentable.
	So, so yeah, exactly.
	And so, um, but the FDA, I do think that the FDA has a philosophic.
	Objection to homeopathy because I haven't seen clear evidence of anything that truly they can object to.
	They've made excuses, they've done some inflammatory campaigns, but we've done FOIA requests, and nobody's ever been harmed by homeopathic medicines.

Why Pharma Won't Cure You 00:01:20

What's the objection?

Why is, you know, I can see quickly there isn't a ton of money to be made by large corporations in this industry.

I'm getting that sense here.

It is a smaller industry compared to big pharma, the pharmaceutical industry.

But is there a mechanism by which pharma could make big money?

Well, if you think about my story, I've been cured of my disease for going on 23 ish years.

Think about the amount of drugs that I have not taken, you know, the years of weekly, monthly medications that have been lost because I was cured.

And so, I do, while I don't think homeopathy takes a big chunk of the market on a monthly basis necessarily, the amount of people that are healed and cured by it, you're losing customers.

So, you know, maybe that's do patent are they patentable?

Well, so there we go.

Yeah, they're not patentable.

So, so yeah, exactly.

And so, um, but the FDA, I do think that the FDA has a philosophic.

Objection to homeopathy because I haven't seen clear evidence of anything that truly they can object to.

They've made excuses, they've done some inflammatory campaigns, but we've done FOIA requests, and nobody's ever been harmed by homeopathic medicines.
