Howard, your answer to me was satisfactory. Basically my understanding is: 1. Homeopathy is a fraud, but not dangerous because homeopathic medicines contain virtually no active ingredients. 2. The government allows homeopathic remedies to be sold, creating a loophole. 3. The label "homeopathic" doesn't necessarily imply that the product contains no ingredients, or that it is a fraud, though it may. 4. Zicam contains sufficient active ingredients to actually do something, but fits neatly through the loophole, thus reducing the need for testing and clinical trials. Carl
