BELIEFS THAT MAKE POEPLE WELL

Do you aware that home remedies can treat our disease by two way, one is because they have direct effect on our body and another one is that we get well because we believe that home remedies can help not the effect its self.

For example, when I once saw a young man who suffered from a very bad headache. To cure him, his mother gave him a small piece of potato. She told him it was a strong painkiller. He believed her and then the pain went away.

It was his faith in her treatment, and not the potato itself that made him feel better. Many home remedies work this way. They help a lot because people have faith in them. For this reason, home remedies are usually used to cure illness that are origin from people's minds, beliefs or worry.
