For years, many homeopaths have repeated the same story: the Flexner Report, funded by big money, destroyed homeopathy in the early 1900s. But is that really true?
In Episode 92 of Strange, Rare, and Peculiar—“Homeopathy, The Flexner Report, and the Facts That May Change Your Mind”—Denise Straiges and Alastair Gray dive deep into history, unpacking what the Flexner Report actually was and how homeopathy’s decline began long before 1910.
From the politics of medical education to homeopathy’s own internal struggles, this conversation challenges a popular narrative. If you’ve ever blamed “the man” for homeopathy’s downfall—or wondered what Hahnemann might say about our profession today—you’ll want to hear this one.
🎧 Listen now and rethink what you thought you knew about homeopathy’s history.
