Ever felt like you've been hearing about the placebo effect everywhere lately? You’re not wrong—it’s in the air! After overhearing my husband explain the power of belief to my 13-year-old, I knew I had to dive into this topic. This week, we’re exploring the placebo and nocebo effect, not just in medicine but in our relationship with food.
🔹 Can belief alone change your body's biological response? (Spoiler: Yes.)
🔹 Why does a fake knee surgery work?
🔹 How did a milkshake study prove our expectations influence hunger hormones?
🔹 And most importantly—what does this mean for your food identity?
I’ll also be connecting this to my upcoming Food Identity Workshop (happening Friday, Feb 14—sign up at kilgrownutrition.com/workshop). If you’re catching this episode after that date, check the link for future workshops!
And if you’re ready to take the next step in reshaping your relationship with food, check out my free course: From Guilt to GRACE at kilgrownutrition.com/grace.
Let’s explore how your beliefs shape your reality—and your plate!
