Up to 80% of patients enjoy a favorable response to these “drug substitutes”…

For over 50 years, substances with no medicinal value—placebos—have resolved patients’ illnesses.

These include cases as serious as heart disease and the deadliest forms of cancer.

In the eye-opening video below, Dr. Lissa Rankin reveals an enormous error in Western medicine: Doctors have tried outsmarting the “placebo effect,” instead of embracing it.

Dr. Rankin goes on to explain how the placebo effect works beyond pills. The effect applies to your doctors and nurses, too… How they inform and care for you matters as much as the prognosis itself.

The video is long (18 minutes), but worth it. The power of the mind to heal the body may extend—or even save—your life. Share it with others you care about.
