Changelog 2020-11-12 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!]

002. video link and commentary:

002.a. there's the quite uncritical 'full-Monty' YouTube video "Naturopathic Medicine November 2020" [saved 2020-11-10] featuring Sthamann, M. (ND CCNM 2018) [also here and here] -- from the account of Regina District Industry Education Council of Saskatchewan who claim to be "a conduit of career information between students and employers" but instead provide us with a heap of unchallenged misinformation while the host states at the end "thanks again Dr. Sthamann for your informative and thorough presentation to help students in their quest to make a better choice later on" -- wherein we're told:

vitalism [the science -ejected]:

"based on the healing power of nature and the body's ability to support and heal itself [...] the body's natural attempt to heal [...] certain principles that we are to live by as naturopaths [...] principles of naturopathic medicine - healing power of nature [...] the powerful and inherent healing ability of the body, mind and spirit [...] this ordered and intelligent healing ability [...] the body knows what to do as long as we give it a chance to do what it needs to do [...] the body's functioning [...] the body's natural attempt to heal [...] the therapeutic order [...] stimulate the self-healing mechanisms: recognize the healing power of nature [...naturopathy's] modalities - homeopathy: homeopathic remedies [...are] designed to stimulate the body's 'vital force' and strengthen its innate ability to heal [...] the body's own ability to heal [...] modalities - Chinese medicine / acupuncture: based on balancing the flow of chi (energy) [...] energy meridian channels [...]";

so that's raw unfiltered science-ejected VITALISM.  The ND by the way lists a B.S. in Biology as part of her background yet the ejection of vitalism from biology is one of the hallmarks of the academic area.

science:

"a blend of modern scientific knowledge with traditional and natural forms of medicine [...] training includes basic, medical, and clinical science [...] bioclinical sciences [...] science and medicine is always changing [...] naturopathic doctors are educated in all the same biomedical sciences as an MD [...and shows the superscience table which states] basic and clinical sciences [...] National [...] 1548 [...] Bastyr [...] 1639 [...] Yale University [...] 1420 [...] we have a little but more than Yale there [...] in both MD and ND schools, the first two years focus on biomedical science [and] clinical sciences [...] a strong foundation in physiology, pathology, and diagnosis [...using] the Western medical sciences as a foundation [...] heavy in those biomedical sciences [...] accredited schools [...include] National University of Health Sciences [...]";

that categorical science claim.  In fact, an often 'more than regular medicine' superscience claim. False.

these mentions:

"homeopathy [x5], traditional Chinese medicine/acupuncture [...] everyone should have a naturopathic doctor on their health team [and all the other alt. med. kinds...] if we optimize [...] Hippocrates [...] doctor as teacher: naturopathic doctors will assist you in understanding health and illness [...] empowerment and control [...] that perfect informed consent [...] to know when different joints are subluxed [...] this whole rounded perspective [...] there's lots of good research on PubMed [...] allopathic therapies [...] NPLEX [...] CNME [...] a four-year in-residence doctoral degree program [...]";

all the other crap activities and structures.

and that great bellwether:

"NPLEX-2 [...has on it] homeopathy [...]";

so, look it up: NPLEX labels homeopathy a "clinical science."  Rotten to the core.
