    "What's better for your health, placebo number one or almost identical placebo number two?" NEITHER. THE ANSWER IS NEITHER. THEY'RE BOTH USELESS EXCEPT ON SALADhttps://twitter.com/DrOz/status/1021190658088996867 …

    Tomorrow, it’s a head-to-head showdown: apple cider vinegar versus coconut vinegar. Both claim to boost your immunity and fight illness. Be sure to join us to see which one is better for your health. pic.twitter.com/zX49FFkQwb

        Also, neither apple cider nor coconut vinegar "claim" to boost anything, that's a nonsense claim largely made up by people who sell the stuff

        For good reason. After lots of pain and discomfort coconut oil cured my stomach problems. Great butter replacement on toast too. I’m not a testimonial person but I’ve learned so much health knowledge from Dr Oz.

        Actually, there is something called the "Placebo Effect" which has been shown to work.

        If by "work" you mean "alleviate subjective symptoms like pain and fatigue", then yes. However they don't affect hard outcomes, and can't "boost immunity".
