One of the best examples of the transferable placebo effect I observed in my psychology class was the case of a horse that could supposedly do math. By accident, I suppose they mentioned a math problem around a horse that then stamped its foot the number of times that equaled the answer. Obviously they were super excited and kept trying, and the horse kept getting it right. But the horse simply would keep stamping until the owners got visibly excited, at which point he stopped and was rewarded. The only math equation this horse knew was “stomp foot, get treats.”

[@Numberer1]

I love the manner in which you approached this topic. It would be so easy to say something like "Homeopathy is dumb and doesn't work", yet you looked at it with pure facts and considered the pros and cons in a fairly neutral manner. Some members of my family swear by this 'natural cure-all spray' (which I'm almost certain is just tap water), but since the placebo effect of the spray actually helps them, I avoid saying anything about it. However, what's to stop people from re-selling Tic-Tacs and claiming them as anti-cancer pills? There's definitely a 'snake-oil salesman' aspect to this movement which I cannot respect. It's not difficult to profit from the ignorant.

I grew up with homeopathy. Any time I was sick, my mom would open up this huge book about homeopathy and researched what about my symptoms. Also, when the illness didn't go away or wasn't clear she talked about consulting with an expert on the topic. After learning about the actual process of how globuli is made it took a while for me to accept that it's all just placebo - even though I normally tend to question everything I'm being told. Just goes to show how strong some belief can become ingrained if that's what you grew up with.

I'm not saying homeopathy/water directly cures or helps anything beyond hydration. What I'm saying is, homeopathics fit a niche that provides actual help to people. It is not a cold remedy. I have seen patients who have been through several chemo plans w/o help, and come back from a vision quest healthy. The positives that come with a positive outlook are undeniable, and plentiful.

We had a neighbor who said that their cancer was cured because of some "miraculous plant" who was believing in all this homeopathic bs,saying that he never did and chemoterapy .He kept bragging about this on the internet etc. but died next month (I don't know the person but my parents do and told me about this).

Had bronchitis for 6 years. Took homoeopathic medicine for 1 year and I'd get better during a particular season and then had attack again. It got cured this year when I moved away from Delhi. Turns out it was pollen and pollution causing it. Took me a while to realise the entire situation. Turns out the belief that "I can get better" does wonders. As I'm sure it did in 1800s for people when proven remedies were non existent

[@aude.sapere]

In Organon of medicine it's written that the physician should also focus on the cause of disease and he should remove that cause. In your case pollen and bad quality of air was the cause of your bronchitis. The simple point of Hahnemann was that why we drug a person if he can be cured by removing the exciting cause of the disease. If you would have went to an allopath then he would have prescribed you anti allergy, anti inflammatory and medicines which can dilate your bronchi. So removing the exciting cause is better than making your body a dump ground of medicine.

Homeopathy is so last-gen. I do Pizzapathy now. Every time I have a headache, I eat a pizza tonno and about 1 to 20 hours later, my headaches are gone. Like they never existed. OK, sometimes my headaches get worse. That's how I know that the pizza is actually working, that's the so called initial worsening. But I just eat another pizza tonno and it usually gets better. But you can't just eat pizza tonno, that depends on what pizza type you are. You should get a pizza type consultation done first, to make sure you take the right pizza. With a friend of mine, tonno doesn't work and he has to use cardinale. Also, if a pizza doesn't work for some reason, it's not because the pizza isn't a cure for headaches, it probaby was not stored properly or the store you got it at interrupted the freezing chain. These things should definitely only be handled by professionals and not treated like it was just some foodstuff. Those pizzas are made by a company here called "Dr. Oetker", as you can see in the name, it's been developed by a doctor. Still, therapeutic pizzas are still not covered by medical insurances because of a conspiracy by the pharma corporations who know that nobody would ever touch their expensive pills if people finally realized that all they have to do is eat tasty pizzas! And don't you dare tell me it's just imagination and placebo effect. HE WHO CURES IS RIGHT! (and yes, just in case... this is satire)

She even thought she is going to die due to the intense pain. Her hand(right) was too stiffen and nerves where protruding enough to be clearly visible. Then she took an xray which show some issues at the intial regions of spine(bones over that region), seems successive vertebral bones wasn't having enough same in between. She thus consulted a spine specialist who diagnosed it as some kind of arithritis and prescribed some neuropathic pain killers which can cause dilation in nerves. She felt some relief but the pain returned soon enough that she start to felt hopeless about recovery. Suddenly we remembered nearby homeo pathy clinic and go for it.

Allopathy don't have cure for many diseases other surgical removal pf affected part. For example stones in pancreas got a cure in allopathy as removing pancreas. But ayurveda got cure for it which breaks and removes the stone through urine etc. Also there is a lot of chronic diseases which have excellent cure in allopathy but not in other medical system. Giving allopathy monotonous power is dangerous as the incredible human machine has its own way to tackle diseases which we term as immunity. Homeopathy pampers the human immunity while allopathic medicines more or less hampers it. It takes over the role of immunity, but is necessary during emergency situations. We usually prefer homeopathy in mild lifestyle diseases and may god protect is from drastic ailments and provide us with proper medicines to all those diseases mankind is suffering from.

My mom died from cancer recently- she smoked for close to 20 years, but quit for over 10. She never went to a doctor, unless it was a serious injury, She never had a mammogram once in her life and she had never looked into the early warning signs of lung cancer, which they could've caught long before it had spread to her brain. (She passed at 60 and they begin X-ray screening at 50). Guess what? She was huge into homeopathic medicine. She took dozens of different tablets, claiming they were all healthy and beneficial. She became incredibly OCD about what kind of foods to eat and didn't trust anything that wasn't organic. She also did a bunch of weird treatments, like "light" therapy, and god knows what else. I watched my mom succumb to cancer in 7 months flat, because she didn't even want to do Chemotherapy and never tried any other options that were available. She also spent probably the last of her money on "CBD oil" claiming that she would "get over" the cancer that way. All of that stemmed from her medical ignorance and distrust of doctors. She was also an anti-vaxxer, believed in aliens, and thought "rocks" carried healing properties. The point is- its fake. Homeopathy is all bullshit, and purely anecdotal. How you feel about something doesn't help you fight cancer or improve your health. Go to your doctor, get a check up, ask them to check out that weird mole, tell them you have a strange cough, whatever it takes. Go to your medically licensed doctor before its too late. Don't lead yourself down that path- don't be gullible, look into things on your own, then ask a freaking doctor about it. They will gladly answer your questions.

remember to stir the water so that the molecules can absorb its essence. in fact, banks will be in ruins once the public obtains this knowledge. however, why are 'they' still controlling everything in our lives? it's because the world is ruled by satan & aliens are our only hope to save humanity. with their help, we can rediscover ancient technologies like healing crysta i felt nauseous pretending to be retarded, so i'm gonna leave it there.

Most of the people turn to homoeopathy after being disappointed from many practitioners of so-called modern medicine and get cured. They had no beleif or faith in homoeopathy in the begining, so they tried allopathy again and again with trmendous faith. If the faith is the cause of the placebo effect, then why it didn't occur during allopathy management? Most of the people come to homoeopathy after being disappointed from any medicine and they have doubts in their mind. How this so-called placebo effect which didn't act earlier, not shows results?

Once in high school I dated this girl, who’s mom gave me this odd “homeopathic medicine” called “oscillococcinum” or something like that when i had the flu. I remember it tasting exactly like sugar. I did some research on its own ingredients and sure enough, it was sugar. And supposedly mixed with a diluted drop of water that had duck liver in it but diluted to the point to where it had not one molecule of duck liver left and this was supposed to cure the flu. But when I tried explaining this to the mom and my girlfriend I was treated with anger. That was in 2008 or so. I remember watching James Randi and Reading quack watch articles on that type of “medicine”. Good times…

Another prime example, believing in God, also useless, is like believing in the luck of the Irish, or bad luck after accidentally breaking a mirror.
