    I’m going to trust multiple peer-reviewed medical studies over a youtube talk with under 600 views.

    Specially when it’s on a channel branding itself as being skeptical towards science.


    EDIT: On a closer look it’s straight up just one of those conspiracy theory channels and organizations that present itself as actual science.

    And here’s a study if someone wants to look at actual science regarding the placebo effect:

      QED is actually the opposite of a conspiracy theory channel or organisation. They’re very pro science and critical thinking, and spend a lot of time debunking conspiracy theories and pseudo-science.

      I’ve got no skin in the debate in this thread, I didn’t watch the actual video and have no opinion on the validity of what you or the other posters are saying, I’m just pointing out that I think that you’re wrong to dismiss the channel as a source, even if you disagree with the claims made in that specific video.

      You may have misread - its description says it is a “science and skepticism event”. Not skeptical of science.

      I’m with you, otherwise.

      I hope you do, because no good peer-reviewed studies ever produced the results you are talking about. I urge you to show me which ones you are talking about.
      And you should learn to look closer. Maybe get more that a couple of words out of headline, you know, how scientificly minded people are suppose to be.

        You are literally spouting out of your ass. There are multiple peer reviewed papers which show how the body can regenerate itself through placebo effect.

        It’s real and verified just like grass. Go touch some. You are way out of your depth here.
