Since a lot of people are fine with placebos to feel better (studies support it), I support this over prescribing medicine all the time. This way less people feel the need to drink holy water
I refuse to pay for placebo when it costs more than actual medicine.
Yours is an absolutely asinine take.
And as a final note, there is no evidence homeopathy has a positive effect globally in the German population that is non inferior to not having it at all.
And as an important tool for those thinking the placebo effect is at all relevant, please keep in mind the design of the study you read and the disclosures (or lack thereof) at the end of said study. We’re still reeling from the sugar industry effects on research into nutrition.
They would get some unregulated stuff online then, and then it gets really expensive if their liver fails later on. Or shop for doctors until they get something.
You cant fix stupid, you can only push it into a less harmful direction.
