How does the placebo effect work?
Studies indicate that the brain controls a variety of responses that manifest as the placebo effect.
Physiological processes subject to placebos include pain response, depression, insulin secretion, immunosuppression, symptoms of Parkinson’s disease, and serum iron levels.
Multiple factors likely play a role:
✔️Expectation: if you think an injection will hurt, it probably will. Or, if you think a pill (real or placebo) helps a condition, then it likely does.
✔️Conditioning: a learned response or association between two events. If you get used that a real peal works for a certain period, a placebo that you take after that period will work too.
✔️Genetics: some people are genetically predisposed to respond to placebos.
❗️In some situations, a placebo is an effective treatment, even when people know they are taking a placebo.
Placebos have an effect on:
💊Asthma
💊Depression
💊Irritable bowel syndrome
💊Menopause
💊Pain
💊Sleep disorders
