The French example is not really a mystery and therefore doesn’t necessarily require a ‘framing’ explanation - saturated fat is simply NOT unhealthy. That is old dogma! It’s junk and processed food - high fat and sugar combinations that have no fibre and are nutrient poor, too much grazing and large quantities - the French tend not to eat that way, so their better health is entirely consistent with that fact

I had a sudden occurrence of really bad IBS back in 2010. I got prescribed a medication. It immediately helped my symptoms and then I decided to read the leaflet to the medication and it said icing sugar. It instantly stopped working, and then I discovered the placebo effect. Visualising and if you can lucid dream this really helps with real life results

I had no idea what tapping was, but a heilpraktiker used the technique with me and I had a very heavy experience of deep mental torment coming out of me. It was shocking. An hour after the session I started shitting and puking, like all the darkness had to come out of me. So yeah, the only real way to know if something works on you is to try it. The drops the heilpraktiker gave me to take after the session I don't feel had any effect (possibly because they are dissolved in alcohol, and my body doesn't like alcohol, so taking the drops feels like the wrong thing to do) Do the experiment. That's the only way to see

This was a very interesting episode, but disappointing that they talked about the vaccines but not the virus. We've been bombarded with fear the last two years, with daily death tolls, constant footage of people hooked up to machines in hospitals, etc etc. Seems to me that this is a perfect example of the psychological power of expectations! The CDC reported anxiety and fear-based disorders as the second highest contributing factor to death with Covid! Since the start of this year I've seen more of my vaccinated friends catch Covid than the unvaccinated. More worrying, the vaccinated are suffering worse than the unvaccinated (seven to ten days of sickness compaired to an average three days) None of my unvaxxed friends have been worried about getting sick, whereas I have to assume my vaxxed friends were if they were willing to be injected multiple times with barely tested new technology. So can I assume it is their fear of the virus that is making them have a worse time once infected? I am pretty shocked at how David's idea of "vaccine injury" is people having a "sore arm" for a few days. Many people have been crippled for life by these vaccines! Maybe he should take a look at some of the shocking things that have happened to people worldwide: www.jabinjuriesglobal.com/ With over 450 people in the UK alone going blind after receiving the shots, I think that dismissing vaccine injuries as a "sore arm" shows he knows very little about the subject.

Is it possible that the placebo effect is - in part - a convenient get-out-of-jail free card for scientists who don't want to tweak or challenge the current paradigm. For example, French people "should have high levels of cardio-vascular disease... and yet they don't..." Must be the placebo effect!!

The problem with this kind of science is it measures correlates and implies causation. Which is BS. We don't know if there is a causal relation between correlates and even if we did we don't know which way the chain of causation goes. For example, people with "good sleep" who complain tend to have the symptoms of insomnia? OK, that's interesting, but how do we know it's because they complain that they get the symptoms and not that they complain BECAUSE they have symptoms of insomnia despite getting "good sleep"? It's entirely plausible that the way we measure quality sleep is flawed and that, in fact, those people, despite sleeping 8 hours a night, feel tired anyway. The causal chain could be completely reversed from what is assumed.

Idk why but lately chris has been expressing views that make me quiver and question what I think of him haha You can’t make a judgment on the validity of the psychedelic experience if you’ve never done them. And if you think from first principles.. there’s no way the ritual is setting the expectation for the experience.. there was a patient 1 who didn’t know what they were getting themselves into by eating a mushroom or licking a toad.. it was random occurrence. They did it and boom their world was rocked and then they tell others and slowly you have people tripping and trying to make sense of the feelings, visuals, and existential data they are receiving. People are so quick to invalidate anything that’s spiritual with logic and reason haha And the reason you set intentions and do these rituals beforehand is because of you don’t and you go into a psychedelic experience Willy nilly.. you’re going to get freaked out and not know how to process what you’re even seeing or feeling aka BAD TRIP
