The New Placebo Handbook will help you harness the power of your brain's placebo response. The book discusses the history of placebo treatments, the role of placebos in pharmaceutical medicine, and a step-by-step guide to developing a strong placebo response without using prescription drugs or over-the-counter medicines.

Millions of people suffer from chronic symptoms and conditions their physicians say have nonspecific causes. That is a kind way of saying they don't have an effective treatment that will help you. Chronic pain, anxiety, insomnia, irritable bowel syndrome, habitual overeating, brain fog, low energy, and even irritability are just some of these well-known conditions.

Over the past decade, neuroscience has shown that many of these nonspecific symptoms can be successfully treated with open-label placebos. Open-label placebos are blank pills that are not disguised as medicine. For more than 20 years, clinical researchers have shown placebo treatments can be highly effective. This book provides the reader a thorough explanation of what an open-label placebo is, how it works, and why it works. This book is intended to help you, the reader, begin your own wellness investigation using open-label placebos to find the root cause of chronic symptoms that don't seem to go away.

The authors have decades of successful experience in healthcare, clinical research, clinical trials, and especially helping patients find relief from difficult to diagnose chronic conditions.
