"Hahnemann, very beautifully in that essay, basically says that even though we have a method of cure in homeopathy, prevention is better." -Dr Golden

Dr. Isaac Golden shares his powerful journey from a career in economics to becoming a pioneer in homeopathic immunization. A turning point came after one of his children suffered a vaccine injury, pushing him to explore safer alternatives and eventually develop a homeoprophylaxis program in Australia. He opens up about the pushback he faced—even from within the homeopathic community—but also the compelling research behind his work, including a 90.4% effectiveness rate in preventing endemic diseases. We dive into the philosophical debates around prevention versus treatment, the use of nosodes and genus epidemicus, and the global success stories in countries like Cuba and India. Despite criticism, Dr. Golden remains steadfast in his mission to offer natural, evidence-backed choices in disease prevention.

About my guest:

Dr. Isaac Golden, Ph.D., D.Hom., N.D., B.Ec.(Hon), is an Australian homeopath and naturopath who has been in clinical practice since 1984 and teaching since 1988. He founded the Australasian College of Hahnemannian Homoeopathy in 1990, pioneering distance education in homeopathy. He was the first person awarded a Ph.D. from a mainstream Australian university for research on homeopathy—specifically on homeoprophylaxis, the use of homeopathic remedies for infectious disease prevention. Dr. Golden has authored eleven books and over 100 peer-reviewed articles, lectured internationally, served as president of the Victorian branch of the Australian Homeopathic Association (1992–1998), and was recognized with a Distinguished Service Award in 1999. He later became deputy chair and a research ethics committee member at the National Institute of Integrative Medicine and continued research as an honorary research fellow at Federation University, focusing on homeoprophylaxis programs and working with practitioners globally.
