Changelog 2023-01-23 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!]

"[from the description] naturopathic medicine is a system of healthcare that emphasizes evidence-based, natural and preventive approaches to health [...]";

like amazing evidence-based hugely emphasized homeopathy! So, I disagree with the broad categorization.

"[from the description] the goal of naturopathic medicine is to empower you with the education and support you need to use food, lifestyle, herbs, movement, sleep, homeopathy, biofeedback and more to help your body be the healthiest it can be so that it can help to heal itself [...]";

ah, yes, evidence-based homeopathy.  And coded vitalism.  Feeling empowered and educated!

"[from the description] naturopathic doctors treat the whole person and focus on healing the root cause of illness rather than medicating symptoms [...]";

the allusion that regular medicine is hugely negligent.

"[from the description] naturopathic medicine works when nothing else does. It works for the toughest cases. It works [...]";

quite the promise.  Like how homeopathy works in an evidence-based way!

"[from the video, again states] evidence-based [...] helping the body heal itself [...and] it works [...] just good medicine [...] living your best life [...]";

sure, sure.
