The magic of the placebo effect

The magic of the placebo effect









The human mind deceived us with self-centeredness and told us that there was only one ... What a relief when one gets out of the flu or when the headache goes away! The daily pill worked. And then, one learns that that pill had nothing. Nothing at all.

In general, the placebo effect is the ability of human beings to reduce physical pain or to cure small diseases after ingesting a harmless substance, that is, something that does not produce any direct effect on our body. This way, why does it work? Because upon receiving a pill, our brain interprets that it will heal us. And in wanting the "reward" of our healing, we secrete dopamine, which is a hormone that relieves physical pain and tensions.





Although it seems a miraculous fact, heal us without real medicines! , the placebo effect is not something with which one can play at one's whim. In most diseases or ailments the help of traditional medicine is necessary for absolute healing. However, it is proven that the fact of supplying placebos to a patient increases their optimism. And with it, the probability of recovering.

Does it work only in humans? Well no, in animals too. When they suffer from an illness and we give them pills, they interpret it as a routine change, as “what you give them” will return their previous state. And so, they improve. To me personally, it seems to be one of the most curious fields of the mind. And it only makes me think that believing is power, And power is being.
