Zusammenfassung
Research in the hormetic field has demonstrated
a bi-phasic dose response in substances such that
a high dose of a substance being inhibiting/toxic
can have an opposite effect at a low dose where it
becomes stimulating. Hormesis confines itself to
measurable levels of the substances/stressors. However,
homeopathic research has shown that these
bi-phasic enantiodromic effects of substances occur
even at ultra-high dilutions (potencies), beyond a
concentration of log 24.
In 1923 R. Steiner and L. Kolisko demonstrated a new
phenomenon in which the enantiodromic effects
alternate semi-sinusoidally between inhibiting and
stimulating activities. We have studied this phenomenon
in several substances in cell cultures, confirm
Kolisko’s and R. Steiner’s findings and discuss
the significance of this rhythmical phenomenon.
The mechanistic explanation is still to be elucidated
but anthroposophical insights give a path to a more
comprehensive understanding.
