Meaning of similia simílibus by Felipe Lorenzo del Río





Felipe Lorenzo del Río

similia simílibus
  21

It is a Latin saying defended in traditional medicine and among advocates of homeopathy that diseases are cured with similar things. Thus, it was thought that a plant whose leaves, flowers or fruits were shaped like a heart, would be good for curing heart disease. Experience has shown us that it is not true.
