IF however you are ill (eg terminal cancer), and there is nothing that will improve your health; how much would you pay for a placebo wrapped up in scientific language? And finally should someone be allowed to sell you a placebo that might work but has no proven ability to work?
If I had cancer and found out that my doctor was feeding me a placebo I would beat them to a bloody pulp. I don't care if it's done with the bestof intentions. To use a placebo in place of real treatment is a betrayal of trust.
