Summary
This document is Page 50 of a larger file, containing the beginning of 'Chapter 5: Psychosomatic Relations: From Superstition to Mortality.' The text is an academic overview authored by Gary G. Berntson, Ph.D., discussing how beliefs and superstitions can impact physiological health and mortality, citing examples of 'voodoo death' or taboo-related deaths. The page includes a biographical footnote about the author and carries a 'HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_021296' Bates stamp, suggesting it was part of evidence gathered by the House Oversight Committee, likely related to Epstein's scientific interests or funding.
