[Mission emphasis: I do this continuous exercise to expose the inherent fraud that naturopathy is logically, academically, commercially, legislatively / politically and clinically. Hugely misleading category labels such as "science based" and "evidence based" "nonsectarian" are being placed upon what truly is science-exterior and even more so disproven sectarian / quack nonsense! Then, the largest of betrayals toward the public occurs with highly orchestrated '.gov' endorsements of naturopaths as "licensed" and "professional." Beware, the naturopathic licensed falsehood racket marches on!]

002. video link and commentary:
002.a. there's the YouTube video of Rubman, A. (ND ) titled "Meet the Expert: Dr. Andrew Rubman, Naturopath" [saved 2017-12-16] -- of the Bottom Line Inc. account which sees to be a bunch of alt.med. bullshit mixed in with decent advice -- wherein we're told:
.
[tags: #NDRubman #bottomline #pseudoscience #falseelevation #falsehomeopathyscienceclaim #codedvitalism]
.
"[from the description] Andrew Rubman, ND, is a teacher as well as a physician, helping his patients make better informed choices about their healthcare and become better consumers of both traditional and conventional medical options. He is also a member of the Bottom Line Personal Panel of Experts. For more great tips from Dr. Rubman, check out his other videos and Bottom Line blog 'Nature Doc’s Patient Diary.' In this video, Bottom Line Inc. President Sara Hiner introduces Dr. Andrew Rubman, naturopathic physician and author of Bottom Line’s 'Nature Doc’s Patient Diary' blog. Despite an interest in data-driven outcomes in medicine, Dr. Rubman chose to become a naturopathic physician because he realized that science tried to reduce the complexity of the human body to only its component parts, often missing important details in the process. By viewing the body as one interconnected system, Dr. Rubman can identify pieces of the puzzles that mainstream doctors might miss [...]";
ah, that disparagement of science and modern medicine. Science, of course, is not that blind depiction that is posed. Of course, the big question is 'how does ND Rubman KNOW what he KNOWS if it's outside of science'? What KIND of knowledge therein is that? Secret science? Admittedly, Rubman is a former professor I had at UBCNM during my time there. And I must say, he's looking typically older as in 'naturopaths seem to age like regular people' therein 'where is evidence of their SECRET insights?' Regarding "better informed choices", lets see what his web site tells us. Do we get the bottom line?
"[from the video, Bottom Line Inc. President Sara Hiner] personally you've become my personal doctor [...] your oversight of a lot of our medical information at Bottom Line [...] I just want everybody to hear and see how smart you are [...] you are so scientific, and so data driven [...] what drove you to the natural end of science? [...]";
well, a naturopath ISN'T a medical expert. Their background is NATUROPATHY. And 'to do the woo', IMHO, isn't smart. I don't remember the ND, also IMHO, being that smart. I haven't yet met a smart ND. For instance, if "so scientific", then why is the ND's alma mater, , so falsely claim as science what isn't? That's not speaking well for "so scientific". And I highly, highly do not advise that a naturopath be used for ANYTHING. This lady's judgment is QUITE in question: even the Wikipedia article states that naturopathy is a pseudoscience. That's the Bottom Line.

002.b. the "natural" is not an 'end of science' if we are talking about naturopathy, essentially-contextually -- it's not within science, duh:
like naturopathy's essential vitalism and supernaturalism.
002.b1. and according to his bio., ND Rubman is an NUNM graduate [2017 archived]:
002.c. ND Rubman online:
002.c1. piles of coded vitalism:
generally expressed as "the body has the innate ability to heal itself."
supercoded, particularly for an NUNM graduate.
002.c2. yet science committed:
as supposedly "an ongoing commitment to state-of-the-art scientific research."
yet, it's quite easy to research the fact that naturopathy's essences are science-exterior, like homeopathy. But the practice falsely poses HOMEOPATHY still.
002.c3. it claims homeopathy is a science [pseudoscience in a nutshell], stating in "Our Services" [2017 archived]:
"homeopathy is a science that stimulates the individual’s body to correct
imbalances, eliminate waste, and maintain equilibrium by means of
preparations which facilitate the process of self-cure";
not. And coded vitalism.
002.d. "naturopathic" at the bottomlineinc.com website [which is infested with naturopathy]:
002.d1. there's -- attributed to ND Seely -- science subset naturopathy via "there are five accredited naturopathic medical schools in the US and two in Canada [...] National University of Health Science";
but of course that's categorically false.
002.d2. there's coded vitalism via "individuals' inherent self-healing process";
but of course that categorically unethical.
002.d4. and -- attributed to NMD Stengler -- homeopathy ISYN claimed as science and effective and coded vitalism via "the correct remedy is believed to stimulate the body’s natural healing response";
get the Nobels ready.
002.d5. and of course there's a page with the above video embedded in it;
feel the love.
003. lesson:
you can go deeper and more essential that "the bottom line." And down deepest, it's the ugly naturopathillogical.
