Placebo

Posted by coral on June 10, 2004, at 16:57:43

Is there research being done why placebos work? The medical studies consistently show that their product worked X % of the time against a placebo that worked Y % of the time.
To me, what's interesting is that the placebo worked at all. Shouldn't a major study be conducted to find that answer? Of course, pharmaceutical companies might not be intererested in funding it ... lol
I'd love to hear others' thoughts on this.
