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!]

002. video link and commentary:
002.a. Bitner Castellanos, J. (ND NUHS) states in "EH2W What Is Naturopathic Medicine with Dr. Jen Bitner, ND, FMCHC Part 1" [saved 2020-10-14]:
.
.
[tags: #NDevidencebasedclaim]
.
"this evidence-based, safe and effective medicine [...] safe, effective, evidence-based medicine [...and mentions the] CNME [...and NUHS being] CNME accredited [...and] the basic sciences [...] basic science board exams [...and] two sets of clinical science exams";
so, that claim of science evidence-based, because after all her alma mater is NUHS as in science.
"[and she states] a fundamental principle in naturopathic medicine is the vis medicatrix naturae [...] the body's innate, dynamic ability to heal itself [...]";
ah, coded vitalism.
002.b. and there's her practice page "Naturopathic and Functional Medicine", which states:
"the following principles are the foundation of naturopathic medical practice: [#1] the healing power of nature (vis medicatrix naturae): naturopathic medicine recognizes an inherent self-healing process in people that is ordered and intelligent. Naturopathic physicians act to identify and remove obstacles to healing and recovery, and to facilitate and augment this inherent self-healing process";
so, for all the science and evidence: no transparency regarding the vitalism at the heart of naturopathy.
