See article keywords and concepts |  If you want to experience genuine health, and you're tired of being exploited and victimized by the conventional medical system that still dominates American medicine today, it's time to declare your independence and embrace naturopathic medicine.
How to declare your own independence from health care tyranny
The good news in all this is that you no longer have to suffer under the delusional, dogmatic system of medicine practiced in America today. You can choose a different system of medicine -- one that actually works to prevent disease and help you heal. naturopathic medicine is that system. |

Curing your own cancer
When you cure cancer, it is no longer a question of whether you are going to live six months, two years, or five years. You get to live a normal life cancer-free. That is a possibility conventional medicine cannot offer you. |

See article keywords and concepts |  More consumers are choosing naturopathic medicine than ever before. The popularity of modalities such as homeopathy, acupuncture, herbal medicine, energy medicine, sound healing, massage therapy and mind-body medicine is at an all-time high... and it continues to rise! People are learning about what works, and they're pursuing natural, non-invasive therapies in increasing numbers.
Consumer demand for organic foods is skyrocketing. The truth about toxic synthetic chemicals in our foods, cosmetics and personal care products is finally starting to go mainstream. | | Take care of your own health with herbs, superfoods and naturopathic medicine and you just might live long enough to witness it first-hand. |

See article keywords and concepts |  The difference between conventional medicine and naturopathic medicine can be described in the way that health practitioners would perceive this problem and attempt to resolve it. Conventional medicine would look at the water dripping out of the roof and find a way to measure it. So they would have a number, which might be 60 drips per hour, and they might say anything above that (such as 70 drips per hour or 100 drips per hour) is a disease, and they would name that disease something like, "Roofoporosis Disease. |

There's only one catch: Under a naturopathic system of medicine, you have to take responsibility for your own health, whereas under a pharmacological system of medicine, you can play the victim role and go along with the false beliefs implanted in your brain by television commercials. |

See article keywords and concepts | | Under naturopathic medicine, you can cure yourself of virtually any disease, including cancer, but only if you embrace the simple truth that no external medicines, substances or practitioners can do the curing for you. Taking responsibility for your health means empowering yourself with the state of belief necessary to initiate spontaneous healing, and the body already knows how to spontaneously heal itself of even scary-sounding diseases like cancer, by the way. All you have to do is give your body the right nutrients, environment, movement, removal of toxins and avoidance of toxins. |

See book keywords and concepts |  However, from a naturopathic medicine standpoint, this should be done sparingly. This is like taking a heartburn medicine but still eating spicy Polish sausages. The food is still aggravating you, you are just temporarily protected from the immediate bodily response. The fact that these foods are causing symptoms means that they are causing irritation and inflammation. mmmmmmmmnmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmimmmm

The natural therapies presented in this chapter deal with these four general states:
1. Premature ovarian failure (See Chapter 12 for more in-depth information and treatment.)
2. Hyperprolactinemia
3. Inadequate estrogen production
4. | | A whole new generation of naturopaths looked to him for their wisdom as the holder of true naturopathic medicine. The story goes, a young naturopathic medical student asked Dr. Bastyr, "How are we supposed to know what therapy to choose when there are so many different medicines and systems to choose from?" Dr. Bastyr calmly and quickly responded, "Choose what works." Another question was posed to Dr. Bastyr: "How can you tell an excellent physician from a good physician?" Dr. Bastyr's answer: "The results."
My second guiding principle is that of choice. | | The ultimate goal of naturopathic medicine is prevention. This is accomplished through education and promotion of lifestyle habits and through natural therapeutic recommendations. The emphasis is on building health rather than on fighting disease.
7. Establish health and wellness. The primary goals of naturopathic physicians are to establish and maintain optimum health and to promote wellness. They strive to increase the patient's level of wellness, characterized by a positive emotional state, regardless of the level of health or disease. | | The tradition of naturopathic medicine holds that the health and vitality of an individual depends on the health of the liver and the whole digestive system. The liver's basic functions are vascular, secretory, and metabolic. As a vascular organ, the liver is a major reservoir of blood and filters over one quart of blood per minute. The liver removes bacteria, endotoxins, antigen-antibody complexes, and other particles from the circulatory system. The liver's secretory functions are the synthesis and secretion of bile. The liver manufactures about one quart of bile daily. | | The following seven principles are the foundation for naturopathic medicine:
1. The healing power of nature (vis medica-trix naturae). The body has the inherent ability xvii to establish, maintain, and restore health. The physician's role is to facilitate and augment this process with the aid of natural, nontoxic therapies; to act to identify and remove obstacles to health and recovery; and to support the creation of a healthy internal and external environment.
2. First, do no harm (primum no nocere). |

See article keywords and concepts |  I wouldn't rely solely on aloe vera, especially since there are dozens of cancer cures that are now well known in naturopathic medicine. Combining the right herbs (like cat's claw), superfoods (like spirulina), advanced therapies (like intravenous vitamin C), oxygen therapy and other modalities will give you the best results when battling any form of cancer. Work with a naturopathic physician to learn more.
Aloe vera halts inflammation

Fasting can be an effective way to detoxify the body and, subsequently, improve energy levels. It works by giving the organs and cells of the body a rest from some of the metabolic functions they perform every second of the day. |
David Winston, RH(AHG), and Steven Maimes
See book keywords and concepts |  Frequently, the underlying belief focuses on what naturopathic medicine calls vis medicatrix naturae, or the healing power of nature. This idea was a central tenet of medicine as taught by Hippocrates, Moses Maimonides, the German physician Christoph Hufeland, and the early American physician Jacob Bigalow. In many systems of medicine, not only is the body seen as inherently self-healing, but there is an important relationship and connection between the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of each patient. | | From Chanchal Cabrera's Case Files—Autoimmune Disease (Polymyalgia Rheumatica)

This patient was a sixty-four-year-old woman with the autoimmune disease polymyalgia rheumatica. Her symptoms were being controlled with prednisone, but she was very concerned about the long-term effects of this medication on her bone density. | | From Mary Bove's Case Files—Autoimmune Hyperthyroidism (Graves' Disease)
Mary Bove, ND, MNIMH, is a midwife, naturopathic physician, and herbalist who trained in the United Kingdom, and at the National College of naturopathic medicine in Portland, Oregon. She has a very busy practice in Brattleboro, Vermont, and is the author of The Encyclopedia of Natural Healing for Children and Infants.
Kay, thirty-four years old, a new mother of just seven weeks, had recently been diagnosed with autoimmune hyperthyroidism, known as Graves' disease. | | From Jill Stansbury's Case Files—Multiple Conditions

Stansbury uses adaptogens in many ways, including the following:
I often use adaptogens (ashwagandha, Asian ginseng, eleuthero, rhodiola) for perimenopausal women with stress symptoms, insomnia, and anxiety and emotional disturbance. I expect to see results within a week or so. |

Since the liver's job is to detoxify every chemical, pollutant, and medicine that we're exposed to—according to some experts it performs more than 5,000 enzymatic reactions—keeping it strong and functioning smoothly is of prime importance to our health. | | Mark Stengler is associate clinical professor at the National College of naturopathic medicine in Portland, Oregon.

See article keywords and concepts | | REPPED: People often ask me about the difference in philosophy between conventional medicine and naturopathic medicine. While the differences are numerous, some of the more fundamental ones can easily be explained. Imagine your body is a house, and the health of your body is the maintenance of that house. If you don't do regular maintenance on this house, the roof of your house begins to leak and you might notice water dripping into your home every time it rains. The water is a symptom of an underlying problem -- a roof with poor maintenance. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Nonetheless, a study at the National College of naturopathic medicine in Portland back in the 1990s indicated that it may be helpful, though the effect is mild. But nettles have a long traditional use of being used for allergies (as well as other conditions), and many health practitioners recommend nettles as part of a total natural prescription for allergies; nettles do have a mild anti-inflammatory effect. The standard dose is 600 mg of freeze-dried nettles a day, though some people use more. It's also most effective if you start using it at the first onset of symptoms. |
