In today's episode of The Health & Happiness Podcast, Travis & Lauryn talk about placebos & nocebos. What the heck is a placebo or a nocebo, you ask? Basically, it's a positive or negative effect (respectively) from a treatment that has no therapeutic benefit. So, how can a treatment with no therapeutic benefit have a positive or negative effect? It's all in the power of the mind or the power of our expectations/conditioning! The research on this topic is fascinating and we explore a variety of studies and talk about some of our sillier experiences with placebos & nocebos.
