UK's College of Naturopathic Medicine Bogosity Video: 'Vitalism Subset Human Biology' and then 'Science Subset Homeopathy'

here, naturopathy telling us about science...but then you find on their main site:

001. from the YouTube account "College of Naturopathic Medicine", there's the video "The Different Systems That Make Up The Human Body" which states:

 "[from the description] from our most popular online naturopathy courses, How The Body Works. To learn more about our world-leading courses & our nutrition career pathways, please visit [various web pages...from the video] so let's think about this from a very naturopathic point of view by understanding the reason why somebody is suffering from some kind of pathological process [and 12 typical systems are listed...and also the slide states] life / vital force influences all body systems [...]";

oh my!  Prove it.  Since the presenter states "in fact, the heart is 95% muscle", let's too be granular:

in fact, vital force is a science-ejected figmentation, here being falsely claimed as 'of human biology' without the proper warnings that is is a belief system.

 
002. on their main site naturopathy-uk.com:


002.a. in "What is Naturopathy?", they tell us:

"naturopathy, or nature cure, is underpinned by a fundamental principle – vis medicatrix naturae – the healing power of nature. This was made clear twenty-five centuries ago when Hippocrates said Health is the expression of a harmonious balance between various components of man’s nature, the environment and ways of life – nature is the physician of disease. Man was part of nature and the universe, and health was achieved by living in accordance with this principle. Harmony was fostered with proper nutrition, water treatments, rest, sunshine and fasting. Medicine, religion and science were intimately related and man was seen as a whole – a physical, mental, emotional and spiritual being. The same vital force or chi (qi) that made up the universe and nature flowed through man and it was his dislocation from this source that caused illness. Early naturopaths realized that if you could restore the vital force to the patient, the body would naturally heal itself [...] the body has this capacity to heal itself if given the right conditions and naturopathy, along with acupuncture, homeopathy, herbal medicine, and most other holistic modalities subscribes to this basic understanding of the body’s own innate intelligence";

ah, that same failed medieval paradigm of epistemic and ontologic conflations: retrograde indistinctions involving science-ejected vitalisms, supernaturalisms and panentheisms / animatisms, sectarianisms, science and abject quackery.  And no where in the 'systems of the body' is there qi or vital force, and notice how that video doesn't even touch upon that essential naturopathic premise. 

002.b. and to further emphasize that indistinction / misrepresentation there's their "Homeopathy Courses" page that states:

"homeopathy is a scientific method of treatment [...]";

 actually, homeopathy is antipodal to science.  And remember, the K-12 Next Generation Science Standards explicitly employs vitalism as a science-ejected example.  Beware, there be grifters here...
