Your MIND the Ulimate supplement! - Must Read

I recently read about a study (sorry, I don't have the exact citation or the exact numbers involved), but here was the general details of the study...
The researchers split the group into 2 large groups of people. The first group they gave one of these typical "energy drinks" that you see everywhere (which I've mentioned before are a complete waste).
Now here's the important part... they specifically told this first group of people that this energy drink they were receiving would increase their strength and endurance levels and increase their energy output.
The 2nd group received the exact same "energy drink" but was not told what the drink was, so nothing was said about it improving anything. For all these people knew, they were just being given a drink for no reason.
**The results:
Very interesting!
The 1st group, which was told that the energy drink would improve their strength and endurance, actually DID increase their strength outputs and endurance tests.
However, the 2nd group, which received the EXACT SAME "energy drink" was NOT TOLD that it would help anything, and therefore, they showed no measurable signs of improvement on any of the tests!
Wow... yet another powerful example of how it's ALL IN YOUR MIND!
