001. at the publisher Mary Anne Liebert, there's a table of contents for their naturopathy "Special Focus Issue":
001.a. and therein, in that issue, we're told in the article "The State of the Evidence for Whole-System, Multi-Modality Naturopathic Medicine: A Systematic Scoping Review":
"the WNF [World Naturopathy Federation] defines the naturopathic profession based on two fundamental philosophies of medicine (vitalism and holism) and seven principles of practice (healing power of nature; treat the whole person; treat the cause; first, do no harm; doctor as teacher; health promotion and disease prevention; and wellness) [...]";
so, vitalism at the core, fundamental, definitive. Which is science-discarded.
001.b. and then, in "Naturopathic Medicine for the Management of Endometriosis, Dysmenorrhea, and Menorrhagia: A Content Analysis":
"the controversy surrounding the scientific validity of homeopathy";
well, there is no controversy. Homeopathy is bunk. Just as vitalism within science is bunk.
002. now JACM states, too, simultaneously:
"the leading peer-reviewed journal providing scientific research for the evaluation and integration of complementary and alternative medicine into mainstream medical practice";
ah, a science vetting claim, en masse. But since when is arguing for the patently and FOREVER science-ejected as still science a kind of scientific peer-reviewed research? These wrappings are quite superficial...
