Goji and the Placebo Effect
I am going to address how I feel about the "placebo" effect and Goji. Anytime you deal with people’s health you will have a placebo effect on some. I have a few key points to share with you. 1) Animals do not have a "placebo" effect. There are a lot of testimonials regarding great results with pets. 2) Lab work does not understand the "placebo" effect. I have seen in 7 to 8 weeks on Goji remarkable turns in regards to people and their blood work improving and a lot going to normal and this is on people who have had problems for years. 3) Diabetics monitoring themselves see better blood sugar levels with time. That doesn't work under the "placebo" effect. 4) even if the person is having a placebo effect for the things that they can (sleep, pain relief, energy…). What’s wrong with sleeping better, having more energy, less and or no pain, not feeling the side affects of Chemotherapy. I have seen for the most part people feeling better in general. They are doing better and without the use of drugs that all have side affects and don't always work on every patient. The results very and time of response to Goji varies due to the pollutants in ones body, your metabolism, the amount of Goji you take, the quality of the Goji, and your health issue. It may have taken years for your illness to take hold and we want instant results. I have seen fast results a lot of the time but usually it takes a couple of months for the toxins to flush and see wonderful benefits. Give it time.
