      So you are on record as stating that all licensed naturopathic doctors are quacks.

      I think your comment is grossly unfair and not fact based because it encompasses every licensed ND who helps patients with evidence based therapies. The ND who helped save my life just educated me and helped me lose weight and didn't do any of the crazy things you allege.pic.twitter.com/pnDmsscPXX

      Eric, your eight loss is a great success story and should be celebrated. Helping someone lose weight does not require any training in medicine or naturopathy however. Many people without any formal training in nutrition/weight loss do this well. Most is public knowledge.

      I agree. My objection in this thread involves tarring a profession as quacks when a member of that profession saved my life by helping me do this. Thank you.

      I note that you haven't answered my questions about this naturopaths. I'll rephrase them. Did this naturopath, in addition to whatever dietary advice he gave you, ALSO offer any of these modalities: Homeopathy, reflexology, "detox," chelation, IV vitamins, TCM, or iridology?

      Replying to @gorskon @Eric_OGrey and

      Did he offer applied kinesiology, thermography, juice fasts, liver cleanses, or "detox" foot baths? I could go on, but these will do for a start.

      No she did not, at least never to me. Nothing about her seemed “non-medical”. Before my ND, I went to regular doctors for 25 years. Each MD visit was about 5 minutes, with the doctor holding a RX pad and giving me a prescription for a new drug, or an adjustment, at each visit.(1)

      I know you won't give me her name, but, if you did, I'd be willing to bet that I could look into her and find quackery.

      She is genuinely the nicest and most caring person I’ve ever known. I will appreciate if you don’t create problems for her. Her name is in my book if you are really interested.

      Never mind. I found her. She's definitely a quack.
