So I’m not understanding how this is bad. If a group of people are all given placebo pills and everyone KNOWS that they are sugar pills which will not actually help any of their symptoms, and a fraction of that group still reports feeling better from the pill… How is that even possible? Why would they feel better from a fake pill that they know is fake? What is even the point of giving everyone a fake pill when they know that it won’t do anything?.. Am I missing something here? Seems to me those people are irrelavant because their problem resolved on its own and they need not to be part of the study.

What percent of the people who get sugar pills go on to develop diabetes?

A good source, and some very interesting information, is http://www.doctoryourself.com/. I have read 2 books they review on this site, and have been following the recommendations in those books. Not a 100% Improvement, but much better than taking toxic psyche meds. I have posted comments on meds and doctors on this site before, and can rant a long time on these.

Another thing about clinical trials. People who die during the trial are excluded from the trial and the ensuing papers, because they did not finish the trial. So if, say 9% (a significant number) of people die as a result of the toxicity of the drug, it would never get reported, because they didn’t finish the trial. How’s that for a Catch-22?

I get your point, which is a good one. In effect “science”, from commercial perspective, is value-added marketing or branding. It gives incredulous products vain “credibility”. Because more or less all humans are vain, the program works like a dream (double metaphor).

A more compelling investigation would be to determine “WHY” placebos work at all. I begin the evaluation process here:

This explains the origin of all this quite well.

Jon, these have been great reports on the fraud and deception that is the drug industry in my opinion. But I also suspect that most people would be terrified at the implications it portends for any sort of medical or psychiatric treatment. People depend on doctors knowing how to help the patients, when really, help was never the intention. The people have no alternative but themselves. That’s not so bad actually, except that people are terrified of learning for themselves and assume responsibility for their own treatment. I am my own doctor, so to speak.

It is the terror that most immediately feel at the suggestion that their health is in the hands of nothing at all, really.

But to those with fear, do you want to continue getting ripped off and get nothing, or worse, get something that will make you far worse off? There are books and other sources on the net, too, that have good recommendations. But first you must dare to believe there really is fraud out there.
