DR. BELLOKOSSY: I have the impression that the members have overlooked many points of the mornings paper. I said that psora can be reproduced experimentally, and I think that is enough. That buries the theory of Hahnemann on psora for good. What I said is not theory; it is a fact. Whoever studies nutrition–I have studied it for ten years-will be of this same opinion. Psora is then dead, and we cant carry it on any more because of the allopaths laughing at us. They study avitaminosis, they study modern nutrition, they study how to treat scabies, and we see that, too. We cannot repeat any more that scabies is the cause or the basis of psora.
Dr. Gobar said this morning that scabies can be cured by internal remedies. This is true. Scabies can be cured with Sulphur internally, but not potentized Sulphur. Only a potentized homoeopathic remedy is unable to cure scabies; it must be the crude remedy, and generally it is enough to give it locally. But it will cure scabies also if given internally. So if riboflavin cures scabies when given internally, it does not gainsay my contentions.
It is a most important fact that the nutritional changes in our organisms, when they are chronic, become irreversible. Dr. Grimmer has said he has seen cases of dietitians, who kept a most perfect diet, who nevertheless had psora. That does not contradict my contentions, because they were psoric for many years, and absolutely no diet and no vitamins will cure that. But the homoeopathic remedy will cure it even if they dont go on the right diet. So this doesnt prove anything against my contentions of what psora is.
In my idea, it is a fact that psora is an avitaminosis, and whoever studies the modern vitamin terminology will find that all these symptoms give manifestations of different current chronic diseases that are described in Hahnemanns Chronic Diseases as psoric. It is an absolute identity. Whoever studies these two things and compares vitaminology and Hahnemanns Chronic Diseases will find the parallelism.
