For most health professionals who have chosen the challenging path of comprehending classical homeopathy, the theory of miasms is the most intriguing part of our science and is an area where much misunderstanding, criticism and controversy prevails. There are now a large number of opposing ideas and opinions on the subject of miasms, with various classifications, many of which we believe to be erroneous and which confuse many homeopaths and result in incorrect prescriptions.Here we clarify the main postulates of Hahnemann's miasm theory and analyse how his followers transformed his ideas over the next century in the light of medical discoveries. This allows us to understand the limited relevance of miasm theory to modern day prescribing and offer a new and precise definition of the term miasm in relation to modern diseases such as cancer and autoimmune diseases. How we apply this theory to the health challenges of the 21 century, such as increasing environmental pollution and other toxins, may play an important role in the future wellbeing of the human population.
对于大多数选择理解顺势疗法这一具有挑战性路径的健康专业人士来说，瘴气理论是我们这门科学中最引人入胜的部分，也是一个存在大量误解、批评和争议的领域。现在，瘴气主题存在大量相互矛盾的观点和意见，存在多种分类，其中许多我们认为是错误的，这些错误使许多顺势疗法制剂师感到困惑，并导致开出不正确的处方。在这里，我们澄清了哈内曼瘴气理论的主要假设，并分析了他的追随者在接下来的一个世纪中如何根据医学发现改变他的思想。这使我们能够理解瘴气理论与现代处方的相关性有限，并为现代疾病（如癌症和自身免疫性疾病）中的瘴气术语提供新的、准确的定义。我们如何将这一理论应用于 21 世纪的健康挑战，如日益严重的环境污染和其他毒素，可能在未来人类健康中发挥重要作用。
