The list of sources is about half way down.

If you are especially interested in nutritional health, consider working with a nutritionist. Nutritionists tend to have a more holistic view of diet and health than physicians do.

NMDs are becoming a lot more common these days. We have several in our community. If you have health insurance, I would call their help line and tell them you are looking for an N.M.D. (these doctors know both natural and conventional treatments)

Don't listen to pelops.she doesn't know what she is talking about. Natural medicine DOES work. I am living proof of that.

You won't find anyone but quacks who specialize in 'natural' medicine. Anyone who tells you they can cure your cancer by giving you an overdose of vitamins is lying or insane. Cancer cannot be cured in this manner. If you have cancer, then for the sake of your family do NOT go to a naturopath!

I think most chiropractors do, my own chiropractor has a lot of knowledge about vitamins. She does'nt believe in drugs, and will not give them to her own children. For example I had an earache one time and she gave me some homeopathic Rx for it.
