The placebo effect, by definition, is the body's response to non-treatment. By saying the homeopathy triggers the placebo effect you are admitting that homeopathic products and treatment are not treatments at all. In other words, if homeopathy benefits patients by triggering the placebo effect, then a bottle of homeopathic liquid of some kind is chemically and functionally equivalent to a bottle filled with tap water that is labelled "homeopathic".

If this isn't an admission that homeopathy is BS, then I don't know what is. Thank you for proving my point.

What makes me mad is that people are able to gain profits and accreditations based on this scam, all the worse because they are preying on peoples' health concerns, which is immoral and wrong.
