-THE PLACEBO EFFECT

spiritual

The placebo effect is a powerful demonstration of the mind-body connection. It occurs when patients experience real improvements in their health simply because they believe they are receiving treatment, even if they are only given a sugar pill or a saline injection. For example, in one study, patients with Parkinson’s disease were given a placebo and told it was a powerful drug. Their brains responded by producing dopamine, a neurotransmitter that is deficient in people with Parkinson’s, leading to a significant improvement in their symptoms.
