Placebos only work when the ailment is eased by positive reaction in the brain.
The placebo causes the same positive reaction of a particular drug.
For example : pain medication.
The mind can reduce pain all on its own without any drug.
The "belief" that the pain drug has been taken triggers the brain to react as if the
drug was actually taken.
It's like jacking off but being too retarded to know it's jacking off and not actual sex.
But then again, maybe jacking off is sex..........
