What’s the difference between a proving, an aggravation, and a remedy reaction—and why does it matter? In Episode 111 of Strange, Rare & Peculiar, Denise Straiges and Alastair Gray respond to listener questions and clarify key distinctions that are often misunderstood in homeopathy.
From there, they turn to a more fundamental question: how are homeopathic remedies actually made? With a focus on trituration, they explore why preparation, precision, and method matter—and how oversimplified approaches can distort a complex medical system.
Scroll down to listen to Episode 111 to better understand how remedies are made and why these distinctions matter in practice.
