Anybody who believes in the placebo effect is not to be taken seriously. If you think you can measure the placebo effect, what did you use as your control in your double blind study? That is, your control group which did not get a placebo, but believed they were getting a placebo, how exactly did you manage that?

Anybody who believes placebo is not a real physiological phenomenon is not to be taken seriously, because they have not done their basic homework. > what did you use as your control in your double blind study? I didn't do one, because I am not here claiming that 1mg of CBD is enough to feel. The responsibility is on OP, not me. But to answer a hypothetical, what would I use as my control? The same solution I would be placing the CBD in, sans the CBD. It's not hard. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Placebo#Mechanisms https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Placebo#Mechanisms
- perl4ever 7y agoPlease don't take me so literally. I understand you didn't do a study on the placebo effect or anything else. I'm asking something that I wish you would seriously consider. If you only believe in things that are proven through double-blind studies, and you believe the placebo effect objectively exists, then it must be possible to do a double-blind study proving the placebo effect exists. Have you read about such a thing, or can you imagine such a thing? Do you, if you look again at my previous comment, see any possible logical problem? I'm questioning your belief structure - I have no particular opinion on CBD, nor do I think controlled studies are useless.
