conscious belief is not required for the mind to alter the body. proof of that is the placebo effect working even when people know it's a placebo
>>16897041You believe the placebo effect works so the placebo works even if you know it's placebo.
>>16897041>>16897061the placebo effect is jews manipulating medical trials
>>16897081this is false
>>16897061>You believe the placebo effect works so the placebo works even if you know it's placebo./thread. Pretty funny how scientific analysis can turn nothing into a thing, and suddenly it can do things to you.
>>16897061>>16897081placebo effect is not a real thing. there's no evidence. what weak evidence there is is because the 'real' thing itself has negligible beneficial effects to begin with in most cases so taking nothing only appears similar in light of this. most drugs are no different to a tincture of bitters as far as actually fixing something goes. only pain relief or sedation via intoxicated, muddled consciousness (which is ancient) is solid. everything is highly non-targeted and highly ineffective, based on weak theory (and fads) with no clear experiential evidence.
>>16897802>the 'real' thing itself has negligible beneficial effects to begin with inSo basically, you just don't understand that the whole point of judging what is the "real" thing is by judging how much it outperforms random chance in the form of placebo?
>>16897041if placebo works, why don't doctors prescribe placebo to you on top of your regular medicine? not even untreatable diseases get you a placebo prescription
