" it is not unusual for all natural remedies (Neem leaves to soothe burns) to be classified as "Homeopathic"."

That's unfortunate that in this day and age, there are people who can't distinguish between scientifically proven natural remedies and homeopathy. Natural remedies work because they contain chemicals that have an effect on the body. For example, willow bark contains salicylic acid. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_aspirin

Science, people!
