    yeah, better fit over here. Placebo

    pills? They are usually just milk sugar or something. I just did a Google search on the term and actually got

    some interesting reading. Here is one

    bit:

    To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one's family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one's own mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to Enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him.

    I knew someone who used white M&M

    candy for a while. Worked until someone bit into one and discovered it was chocolate.

    Most any "homeopathic"

    "pill" would probably work as there is really nothing in them anyway... IMO

    May depend on your use and

    situation, and how familiar whomever taking the pills would be with what you use really is. Some common over the

    counter (OTC) vitamin pills may work unless there is a danger of an OD (like with vitamin A) or if it would throw

    wahtever you are doing off.

    Maybe someone here in the US can check with a pharmacy. A school or university that

    does some sort of medical related research may know of sources as well.

    The main thing about placebo is

    the Double-blind method rechearch, according my studies in psychology the mind can do 3 things that are

    irreducible;

    1 - Cognitive Process;
    2 - Emotional Process;
    3 - Believes;

    All of then are very

    important and do influences each other; I know how to do a simple placebo pill capsule, but those fake with label,

    name, etc are very dificult to find.

    It's just an experiment and I have a lot of time to

    fininsh.

    Rbt,

    If

    you get bruises/sprains/tired muscles try homoeopathic Arnica 6c tablets. Crunch them (not swallow) & take them 1/2

    hour away from food, toothpaste, etc. as they are absorbed through the mouth.

    For sore tired eyes try Euphrasia

    6c tablets. Sinus problems - Kali. Bich. 6c tablets.

    I've used them for 25 years & I wouldn't have done that

    if they didn't work. Science says that the bumble bee can't fly because the power to weight ratio is wrong ... I

    suspect that homoeopathic tablets can work at a molecular level (similiar to nanotechnology ??).

    They don't

    work for some people which may be the reason why they get a bad reputation. A relative also uses them for upset

    stomachs.

    I got a painful arm after being scratched by a bramble. The doctor didn't deal with the problem but

    homoeopathic Silica 6c quickly healed it up. I was grateful for that.

    Just practical experience ...
