Reporting on Naturopathic Medicine

...and misreported by the media. Naturopathic training is often described as being on-par with that of medical school. This is not true. Naturopathic courses often have the same course titles as medical school courses, but the content comprises of alternative health information, not medical science. Naturopaths attend four-year post-graduate naturopathic programs. These programs are accredited by the Council on Naturopathic Medical Education (CNME), which is predominately composed of naturopaths. The CNME does not participate in...

Endocrinology vs. Naturopathy—Steel Cage Death Match

Britt’s Note: Many naturopathic doctors market themselves as hormone specialists. They think they are capable of evaluating and treating virtually any symptom that may involve the endocrine system. When it comes to hormone-related conditions, NDs are not just supplement pushers, they are also pushers of useless tests. This post comes to you from a board-certified endocrinologist who offers his insights from many years of experience treating patients. He provides invaluable advice for those wondering if...

An ex-naturopath is a successful naturopath

...fundamental to the scientific process, which I only learned after leaving naturopathy and engaging with the academic community. Naturopaths want to be recognized as primary care physicians in the U.S. and Canada. This is a big deal. We all should be skeptical. This profession is claiming to have established a comprehensive education that trains competent medical practitioners, yet they rely upon unproven methods at best and debunked ones at worst. Essentially, naturopaths want to be...

New York state of mind and naturopathic nonsense

...with supplement companies that will donate a percentage of their sales to the association. It has also set-up a Go-Fund-Me account and is asking patients and naturopathy fans to raise $45,000 to help them “get the right education to key legislators and influencers to move through this [licensing] impasse.” Naturopaths are counting on momentum from the recent signing of a licensing bill into law in Massachusetts to boost a similar bill in New York. https://twitter.com/Nyanpbuzz/status/842085518817017856...

I need your help: naturopath Colleen Huber is suing me

...statements are defamatory (underlined sections are at issue): 1. “In addition to what appears to be a terrible failure in conducting ethical research because it was/is run out of her clinic and tied her non-profit, Huber completely bungled her analysis. Thomas Mohr, an oncology researcher at the Medical University of Vienna, reanalyzed Huber’s data in her sugar study and commented on my blog in February 2016: Putting aside the ethical issues of the extremely bad...

A psoriasis story

...my stress. I basically began to live a healthier lifestyle. I saw the progression of my mom’s disease as a possible outcome for myself, and I was scared and motivated. I found obscure natural healing books using the card catalog. Yes, this was before our library had the internet or computers. I followed the advice I found and got comfort in using alternatives to how my dermatologist wanted to treat me. Looking back at my...
