Unbiased Science

Oops, Naturopathy Did It Again—It’s Not That Innocent! (Part 2)


Listen Later

On this week's episode of the pod, we continue our conversation about the practice of naturopathy.

We kick things off with a deep dive on the training received by NDs and how it compares to the training received by MDs and DOs. We discuss the US Department of Health and Human Services' stance on naturopathy and present statements from some of the major national medical and scientific associations. We continue on to discuss the anti-vaccine sentiment and rhetoric within the naturopathic community, naturopathic "treatments" for COVID-19, cancer, and more. We discuss the potential harms of naturopathy and the unproven and even disproven "treatments" that are often implemented-- some of which have cost people their lives. You don't want to miss this!
