Here is some firm evidence of psychosomatic illness (i.e. real illness that is caused by belief only). Sort of the opposite of placebos.
| The Economist wrote: | | The problem is that, time and again, studies of those claiming to be electrosensitive show their ability to determine whether they are being exposed to a real electric field or a sham one is no better than chance. So, unless they are lying about their symptoms, the cause of those symptoms needs to be sought elsewhere. |
You can read that article on-line in The Economist here: Mind your phone
