N=6 OR=0.88 OR=0.58 Conclusions: clinical effects of homeopathy are placebo effects Critique: how about giving the OR for all included studies and also the OR for the higher quality studies (n=21 for homeopathy and n=9 for conventional). The selection of clinical topics for study seem to favor conventional drugs, e.g. respiratory infections.

10 Probiotics Terms: Probiotic Probiotics are live microorganisms (bacteria or yeasts) which, when administered in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit on the host Prebiotic - nutritional supplement taken to increase the amounts of beneficial bacterial in the gut or vagina. Example FOS (fructose oligosaccharides) Biotherapeutic agent - microorganism used for specific therapeutic activity in humans Nutriceutical - food products with beneficial effects in preventing or treating diseases Predominant Flora: Stomach Stomach ( cfu/ml): Gram+ aerobes, Lactobacillus & Streptococcus
11 Predominant Flora: Vagina Vagina: diverse aerobes & anaerobes including Lactobacillus jensenii, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus casei. Predominant Flora: Urinary Tract Kidneys: sterile Bladder: sterile Urethra: E. coli
12 Predominant Flora: Intestines Small intestine: Proximal ileum ( cfu/ml) aerobic Gram+ Distal ileum ( cfu/ml) Gram- anaerobes Colon ( cfu/ml): Bacteroides, Eubacteria, Peptostreptococci, E. coli, Bifidobacterium, Fusobacteria Functions of Normal Flora Digestion Production of vitamins Mucosal maturation Stimulate Immune System Attachment Intestinal transit Colonization resistance
