The one that you believe will be the most effective.
Placebo effect...really?

Yep that's right there with the fruit loop topped pizza I saw on the news this morning! To each their own I guess?

I’ve heard that inhaling or smelling certain incense smoke can have healing effects similar to the bracelets. But the incense smoke has to be made from special organic materials: U.S. currency. Supposedly if you take a fifty dollar bill from your wallet and set it on fire it’s the same as one bracelet!

AND a $100 bill is twice as effective.I’ve heard that inhaling or smelling certain incense smoke can have healing effects similar to the bracelets.

If that bill is one that's been rolled up to do a line or two of white powder, would the affect be intensified?I'll give it a try

Placebo is absolutely real. So real in fact that in medicine it is the most important control we test against. Never underestimate it!

Years ago my friend's mother had facial pain, so he took her to ten different doctors, UVA Medical Center, acupuncture, everything. It was determined she had tic douloureux.
She said "I can hold a glass of water to my face and pain is so great I can't stand it."
Finally my friend took her to see my grandfather, a physician (D.O.) and he said he had known her for years, she made mistakes and this was psychosomatic. "Get over it! Let the past go" he told her.
The pain went away.
This is from Web MD: "The cause of tic douloureux is unknown."
My Dad had cancer at 34, went to Sloan Kettering in NYC. The surgeon said he could tell who would survive the minute they walked in the door. "You'll survive" he said. Dad passed a few years ago at 88.

...or does he tell everyone this?!? Sure can't see how, "Sorry your going to die..." Would help anyone trying to fight cancer.
