Summary
A quarter of a century ago Jacques Benveniste, Head of Immunology and
Allergy Research at INSERM*, made an astounding discovery. He found that
cell receptor sites in living organisms, rather than responding to complex
molecules on a “key-and-keyhole” basis as was popularly believed, recognise
such molecules by their vibrational signatures. This discovery was not
received favourably by the scientific and pharmaceutical establishment, and
Benveniste was pilloried for his findings. Despite a number of successful
replications, the concept of “water memory”, central to Benvenisteʼs
discoveries, is to this day labelled as “pseudoscience”. He was also
ridiculed for his further discovery some years later that it was even
possible to record those vibrational signatures and transport the recordings
to a new location where they could affect cells that were nowhere near any
of those molecules. When the recorded vibrational patterns were played back
to such cells many miles away, Benveniste claimed, the cells responded just
as they would if the molecules were physically present. Earlier this year
ground-breaking new research findings were announced by a leading body in
medical and biological research. These findings centred on the fact that the
key-and-keyhole model of cell receptor sites could not provide an adequate
explanation for response of those sites to organic molecules. Sophisticated
research techniques had shown that cell response is mediated by vibrational
signals between molecules and receptors at a quantum level. This paper
proposes a clear link between those findings in the past twelve months and
Benvenisteʼs findings of twenty-five years ago, significantly strengthening
the case for the extensively recorded success of homoeopathic remedies being
attributable to quantum mechanical effects. [* French National Institute for
