Zeebo - White Capsules Placebo Pills, No-Logo, Inert, Size-2, 75 Vegan Capsules, Lactose-Free, Sugar-Free, No Artificial Colors for Kids, Adults, Seniors

These served the purpose we purchased them for, although could have been cheaper!

I had high hopes but these were very rough on my digestive system right after taking. I thought the first one was error on my part but the one on the second day confirmed my thoughts. These may be taken very well by others but I had great difficulty. I stopped taking it and will take another approach.

I went looking for a "sugar pill" or placebo to give my adult son with disabilities when he keeps complaining he has a headache waking up. Sometimes he does have a headache and we can treat that in several ways. When we can tell he doesn't have a headache but is trying to use an excuse to stay in bed, I can offer him "a medicine" to help. Would he like an Imagine pill? If he says yes, he gets a pill that will not do him any harm and he may suddenly feel well enough to get up after all. The bottle makes it look like a regular OTC or prescription medication. I told his doctor about this and he was happy to learn it existed. He thinks it is a good idea for this type of use.

Placebo is probably the #1 most studied "medication" in all of scientific research. Placebo does work, and it can work quite effectively at times (though should *never* be used in place of life saving medication). Is it nothing? Yes. So are all homeopathic medicines too (seriously, read their labels, do the math--if homeopathic medications are as diluted as they claim to be, then there literally would not be a single atom of the original "ingredient"). The difference is that Zeebo is not pretending. They don't lie. They don't make false health claims. They are legitimately a placebo, and honest about being placebo.

I wanted to get these to help my child with taking pills, but these are very small versus how they appear on the picture. So, they won't get the job done and they aren't returnable (even unopened). However, Zeebo made it right.
