Look my guy, you linked one single YouTube video as your source, and it’s regarding the wrong medicine. Ibuprofen is a thoroughly researched medicine with clear impact on human physiology. I understand the urge to be skeptical of something that for the most part you just have to accept as true, but I assure you, ibuprofen is very clearly established as a functional analgesic.
Here are three professional medical studies with randomized, double-blind trials, demonstrating clear and unbiased efficacy of ibuprofen. They are very long and technical, but the conclusions/abstracts will give you the TL;DR if you’d prefer.
I don't think you watched the whole video.
You’re right, I didn’t. I will because I’m curious what the arguments are, but I didn’t need to in order to share clear-cut evidence on the side of the effectiveness of ibuprofen. I’ll leave you a comment once I’ve had a chance to watch.
