That nobody take this as a sexist article.Maybe if a man wrote it, he would give it another approach, but that science confirms something that women have been suspecting for a lifetime, is a triumph.The fact is that the British Medical Journal recently confirmed the theory of male idiocy and that many times they do very stupid things.

The placebo effect is widely known, it is a cultural concept through which “magic heals.” That is, through suggestion , the ancient healer or sorcerer healed the sick; the same can be applied in medicine: to the extent that the patient firmly believes that the treatment works, the treatment works . To the same extent, and by way of reverse the coin is the opposite effect, as real as one: the nocebo effect. What does it consist of? If you think something hurts you, you're leaving to get sick if you go to a certain place, that is going to give you the flu because someone in your environment has it… surely you get sick, that doubt fits.When we believe negatively in something that belief ends up harming us, affecting really our health. This is what Dr.Fabrizio Benedetti of the Medical University of Turin says, who has stu...
