Changelog 2019-12-11 and ND Video


here, I summarize recent additions to my public naturopathy database.  I also link to an ND's video each changelog, quote from, and tag the video in some detail:


[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!]

001. added:

the vitalism [science-ejected subset naturopathy] claims of:


NDs Aponte and Axtell;
NDs Asplin and Hacker;

ND Bosted;
NDs Bradford, Leung,
Perch, Yik;
ND Brinkley;

NDs Coracides and Lopez;

the 'science subset naturopathy' category claims of:

NDs Palacios-Campillay,
Pierre, Preston, Schwarz;
 ND Pateguana;
 ND Perch;
ND Preston;



the 'scientific rejection of vitalism':

 
a) the journal Animals:
in "The Emperor’s New Clothes — 
An Epistemological Critique of Traditional 
Chinese Veterinary Acupuncture":
"science-based medicine and vitalism
are ‘incommensurable’ because a 
‘scientific revolution’ has replaced 
one paradigm by another";
[Animals 2019, 9, 168; 
doi:10.3390/ani9040168]

b) the journal Chiropractic and Manual Therapies:
in "A Perspective on Councils on Chiropractic
Education Accreditation Standards and
Processes from the Inside: A Narrative
Description of Expert Opinion Part 2:
Analyses of Particular Responses to
Research Findings":
"non-evidence-based philosophies such as
vitalism and subluxation theory [...] a lack of 
standardization of site inspection is seen by the 
presence within the same CCE of CPs who 
openly adopt a vitalist focused curriculum and
those who have signed a declaration that vitalism
has no place in the modern curriculum, as the
belief that it is the cause of disease is
unsupported by any type of evidence";
[Chiropractic and Manual Therapies,
27, 56. doi:10.1186/s12998-019-0276-5]

002. video link and commentary:

002.a. Asplin, K. (ND Bastyr 2015), Hacker, L.(ND Bastyr 2019) state  in "What is Naturopathic Medicine" (2019):
.

[tags: #NDAsplin #NDHacker #vitalism #vitalforce]
.
"[from the description] we often get asked what naturopathic medicine entails, so we thought we'd make a video about it [...] we focus on preventative medicine and use natural therapies to support the body in healing itself [...] naturopathic philosophy is also unique because it believes in the vital force [...from the video] Dr. Kelsey [...and] Dr. Lauren [...who ask] what is naturopathic medicine? [...] the philosophy of naturopathic medicine [...] the think that probably differentiates naturopathic medicine from almost any other kind of therapy out there [...] to help support the body in its ability to heal itself [...] the expression of a greater thing going on in the body [...] there's another thing that makes naturopathic medicine unique, and that's the vis [...] the healing vital force that we believe every person has [...] similar to qi [...or] prana [...] the vital force is that which moves, animates the body [...] and connects us all [...] it's like the force that is there between everyone [...] a very good piece about our philosophy [...]"; 

ye old science-ejected vitalism. 

"[from the video, schooling includes] the naturopathic specialties [...such as] homeopathy [...] we have a huge toolkit [...] we empower patients through education [...] we like to operate from a place of physiology [...] a truly integrative approach to health [...] patient centered patient focused [...] awesome [...from the description] we are trained in all the naturopathic modalities, which include: botanical medicine, homeopathy, counseling, nutrition, physical medicine, and hydrotherapy [...]"; 

and that junk.  So they treat the vital force, AND they operate from the position of physiology, but physiology is a subset of biology and biology has ejected vitalism for decades.  So, welcome to the loopy.
