Drugs and Placebos
We have not published this article to criticise the pharmaceutical industry or drugs, simply to draw attention to opportunities to heal according to personal choices, and to help reduce the fear that many people experience when they fall sick. - John Coombs
From Natural News http://naturalnews.com/
A new study in Science Translational Medicine has cast doubt over the scientific validity of nearly all randomized, double-blind placebo controlled studies involving pharmaceuticals used on human beings. It turns out that many pharmaceuticals only work because people expect them to, not because they have any "real" chemical effect on the body.

By Tom Randall – 21.5.10
Touch toes. Downward dog. Breathe. It’s a yoga routine that cancer doctors have prescribed for years without evidence it would do much good. Now the biggest ever scientific study of yoga finds their instincts were right.
