This very simple when saying it, but really tricky to explain in text. I guess the best way I can think to describe it is like the word “WING”, minus the “WI” so just say “NG”.

His example of an aspirin in Lake Tahoe is actually an understatement for many homeopathic treatments. For example, to get a single molecule of the original substance in a 30C tincture, one would need to consume an amount of water about 30 billion times the volume of the Earth.
