The second problem was that the "provings" conducted by Hahnemann and other homeopaths and recorded in the Materia Medica have also never been capable of replication by non-homeopaths.
In essence, the basic error of the Materia Medica is that the physical and mental symptoms that people would have normally experienced, even without the substance, were attributed to the effects of the substance itself.
