Remedy Ledger

What a search won’t show you, counted and compared.

Does it work? Here is everything the research says, scored.

We search the medical literature and public forums for natural, holistic and non-Western remedies. We count every study by type, read the human ones ourselves, tally what people report, and give each remedy a score for each condition, from 1 (only lab studies) to 5 (consistent trials in people).

What a search won’t show you

For IP6 alone, we found 5 things a normal search misses: unpublished trial, stalled trial, drug under another name, fda adverse-event reports, patent.

Why counting matters

Lab is not life

Hundreds of studies in cells or mice can sit behind a remedy that has never been tested in a person. We show you which rung the evidence is on.

Stories count, labeled as stories

We read public first-person reports and tally every outcome, including "no effect" and "got worse", with a link to each one.
