I'm thrilled to share the results of my study which was very challenging but super exciting. In this research, we applied the principles of the placebo effect and conditioning to diabetes type-2 treatment. 🩺💊#PlaceboEffect #Thread @IPSplacebo (1/6)
While not all of our hypotheses were confirmed, these results are nonetheless exciting. They provide the first indication that insulin responses can be conditioned in patients with diabetes. 🧪 (5/6)
The study is just published in @PsychosomMed journals.lww.com/psychosomat… (6/6)

First, climate change has already caused widespread and substantial losses to almost every aspect of human life on this planet, and the impacts on future generations depend on the choices we make NOW.
