Zitat des Tages über Placebo:
For me, as a beginning novelist, all other living writers form a control group for whom the world is a placebo.
I've spent a lot of time trying to understand how all the big cosmetics companies get away with the placebo science and unscientific claims.
I became a human placebo.
I do a lot of research on the placebo effect, not just in depression but in irritable bowel syndrome, pain, arthritis of the knee, migraine, asthma.
Placebo is music for outsiders, by outsiders and our gigs are like conventions of outcasts, which is cool.
Research shows that if patients believe they are taking the real drug, they are more confident of improving and, so, improve even if they are actually on the placebo. Conversely, if they suspect they are taking the placebo, their expectancy of improvement declines, and so does their improvement.
