Naturopathic Medicine is a type of medicine that recognizes the
value of naturopathic ideals while sharing allopathic medicine's rigorous scientific foundation.
If you believe that opponents of naturopathic medicine are
kindly old practitioners of traditional naturopathy and you
worry about disturbing their wise folksy natural ways,
that is very, very nice. You are a lovely, decent being.
The opponents naturopathic physicians face are more likely to
be rabid multi-level marketers, dedicated to fighting ND licensure to the last.
Talk to NDs in Colorado and find how the recent defeat of their
licensure effort came about. You will meet some very nice, decent folk who were terrorized and thorougly abused without any cause.
There is a CAM law on the books in Minnesota, which protects all
unlicensed practitioners.
Currently, there is an ND registration effort there, and Health
Freedom campaign against it is nothing but fear mongering and
disinformation.
A new blog, naturopathiclicensure.blogspot.com, has some details
I hope you take a moment to look at.
And I hope good old Ken Winston Cain weighs on this also.
