The power of the Placebo and Nocebo effect can dictate your body's healing capacity.
The placebo effect is when an improvement of symptoms is observed, despite using a nonactive treatment.
From its Latin translation, I shall be attractive or acceptable—when a person feels better due to a drug or treatment that has no pharmacological or physiological effects, regardless of whether they are aware it is a placebo.
The nocebo effect is occasionally referred to as the placebo effect's evil twin; it translates as "I will injure or be detrimental."
It occurs in any situation in which a patient develops side effects or symptoms that can occur because the patient believes they may occur.
Examples include adverse symptoms as a result of an inert pill or treatment, or even as a result of verbal encouragement or observation.
1. Attitude and beliefs have a big effect on our health.
2. Be aware of giving your power over to others. Their influence can have a strong impact.
3. Make healthy living a ritual— eating right, exercising, yoga, quality social time, meditating, etc.
