No! it is NOT placebo! A placebo is fake.
A placebo is a substance having no pharmacological effect but given merely to satisfy a patient who supposes it to be a medicine.
It is panacea. A panacea cures all ills.
panacea
1548, from L. panacea, an all-healing herb (variously identified), from Gk. panakeia "cure-all," from panakes "all-healing," from pan- "all" + akos "cure," from iasthai "to heal." Earlier in Eng. as panace (1513).
current def:
hypothetical remedy for all ills or diseases; once sought by the alchemists
In Greek history, Panacea, daughter of Asclepius the god of healing, was the goddess of healing. Her sister Iaso was the goddess of recovery, and Hygeia was the goddess of welfare and prevention of disease. (hygiene)
Panacea had a special potion with which she cured the sick. Hence panacea.

No. I just like the men and women here who are deluded adequate to claim that random meals and spices therapy cancer. If that used to be the case would not cultures that devour massive quantities of those matters have cut back melanoma rates? Take Tumeric, for illustration. It's a most important spice in Indian curry and apparently helps melanoma. If so it have got to be a totally minuscule amount of help considering that Indian individuals look to haven't any advantage in melanoma rates in comparison with international locations that do not devour a lot of tumeric. If you wish to learn about cancer and alt med just seem up Hulda Clark.

Placebo - If you have a headache and I give you a pill and tell you that it will be better in 10 minutes, it usually works, even if that pill is just chalk dust.
It just shows how powerful the mind is.
