7 PRINCIPLES OF NATUROPATHIC MEDICINE

  1. Do no harm: use safe, effective, natural therapies.
  2. Nature has healing powers: the physician's job is to enhance the body's natural power to heal itself.
  3. Identify and treat the cause: find the cause, rather than just suppress the symptoms.
  4. Treat the whole person: administer to the patient's physical, mental/emotional, spiritual, and social sides.
  5. The physician is a teacher: educate and motivate patients to take more responsibility for their health.
  6. Prevention is the best cure: health-supporting life habits prevent disease.
  7. Establish health and wellness: increase the patient's positive physical and mental state.

 

PURCHASE PURE & REPUTABLE PRODUCTS

Please don't buy your supplements from retailers such as Walmart, Target or Sam's. They do not carry pure product lines. Don't buy synthetic, pesticide-ridden supplements. Make sure you are buying reputable clean brands such as:

 

:::: DONT TAKE CENTRUM VITAMINS ::::
Research has been done on some of the national brand vitamins including Centrum and Centrum Silver. To put it plainly their formulas are cheap. Not just inexpensive...but cheap. They have sub-optimal levels of antioxidants, which are so important for fighting free radicals and building up your immune system to fight off heart disease and cancer.But the problem isn't just the important missing ingredients. It is the chemicals that shouldn't be there. Take Centrum Silver as an example. Centrum's ingredients are all synthetic and include seven different chemicals, solvents or dyes". Also, Centrum is manufactured by Wyeth Pharmaceuticals. They also manufacture Premarin, Ativan and Effexor. Remember - YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!!!

Skin-Care Wake-Up Call

"There is also a blind faith among consumers that if a product were harmful, it wouldn’t be allowed on the shelves. Moreover, “natural” is a label that is perceived to be synonymous with the term “safe.” Yet, no pre-market safety testing for cosmetics is required by the federal government. Meantime, no legal definition for words like “natural” exists for cosmetics. It is truly buyer beware."

BOOKS

Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine, Revised Second Edition
by Michael Murray, N.D and Joseph Pizzorno, N.D

"This book shows you how to improve your health through a positive mental attitude, healthy lifestyle, health-promoting diet, and supplements, with plenty of practical tips. Learn disease prevention through enhancing key body systems. The bulk of the book details natural remedies for treating more than 70 ailments. Each includes symptoms, description, therapeutic considerations (with discussion of studies), and a treatment summary, including nutritional supplements and botanical (herbal) medicines. If you have a disease, this book will give you a valuable perspective on natural treatments. If you're well, it will give you many pointers for maintaining and enhancing your health."

Natural Cures “They” Don’t Want You To Know About
by Kevin Trudeau

"The controversial book that talks about the reasons you are sick and how the American Medical Association, Federal Trade Commission, the Food and Drug Administration, and the pharmaceutical cartels are suppressing information about natural remedies and natural cures for virtually every disease".

 

The Food Revolution
by John Robbins

"Find out the truth about popular diets, genetically modified foods, mad cow disease, and the health effects of what you eat. In this long-awaited and provocative book, best-selling author John Robbins exposes the dangers behind many of today's foods and reveals the extraordinary benefits of healthy alternatives".

 

Women’s Bodies, Women’s Wisdom
by Christiane Northrup, M.D.

"In this influential book, Dr. Northrup tells the powerful and poignant stories of patients who healed their diseases by attending to and healing the emotional wounds that they experienced in the context of their everyday lives".
The Anti-Depressant Fact Book
by Dr. Peter Breggin

"Known as "the Ralph Nader of psychiatry," Dr. Peter Breggin has been the medical expert in countless court cases involving the use or misuse of psychoactive medications. This unusual position has given him unprecedented access to private pharmaceutical research and correspondence files, information from which informs this straight-talking guide to the most prescribed and controversial category of American drugs: antidepressants. From how these drugs work in the brain to how they treat (or don't treat) depression and obsessive-compulsive, panic, and other disorders; from the documented side and withdrawal effects to what every parent needs to know about antidepressants and teenagers, The Anti-Depressant Fact Book is up-to-the minute and easy-to-access. Hard-hitting and enlightening, every current, former, and prospective antidepressant-user will want to read this book."

 

 

Trust Us, We're Experts
by Sheldon Rampton, John Stauber

"Fearless investigative journalists Sheldon Rampton and John Stauber (Toxic Sludge Is Good for You! and Mad Cow U.S.A.) are back with a gripping exposé of the public relations industry and the scientists who back their business-funded, anti-consumer-safety agendas. There are two kinds of "experts" in question--the PR spin doctors behind the scenes and the "independent" experts paraded before the public, scientists who have been hand-selected, cultivated, and paid handsomely to promote the views of corporations involved in controversial actions. Lively writing on controversial topics such as dioxin, bovine growth hormone, and genetically modified food makes this a real page-turner, shocking in its portrayal of the real and potential dangers in each of these technological innovations and of the "media pseudo-environment" created to obfuscate the risks. By financing and publicizing views that support the goals of corporate sponsors, PR campaigns have, over the course of the century, managed to suppress the dangers of lead poisoning for decades, silence the scientist who discovered that rats fed on genetically modified corn had significant organ abnormalities, squelch television and newspaper stories about the risks of bovine growth hormone, and place enough confusion and doubt in the public's mind about global warming to suppress any mobilization for action."
