An understanding of how homeopathic remedies are made may help to clear
some of the misunderstandings.  The mixtures are dilluted many times
over and the strenghth of the product comes form the "law of
potentization".  By the time you reach the final mixture, any origninal
present molecule, might be absent.  The greater the dilutions the
greater the potencies.  The energy that comes from mixing (shaking) is
also part of what makes the remedy work.
