My internal monologue this morning perseverating on the dual hot topics of why patients choose alt med and also physician burnout. It comes down to relationships. @KJFMartin, @drcadesky, @FionaMattatall, @HislopMD
Over all I'm sure Naturopaths are better educated in nutrition and diet than M.D.s. As with all recommendations by any health care practitioner, the patient should do their homework. There are plenty of questionable treatments in medicine and in naturopathy.

That you're "sure" of a thing does not mean that it is true. Naturopaths may say they're better educated in nutrition, but it's a magical form of nutrition, not a science-based one.

Why do hospital dietitians allow this kind of food if they are so well educated. https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2016/02/unhealthy-hospital-food/461898/ …

Naturopaths are not ‘better educated’ in nutrition, they just do a very good job of making it way more complicated than it needs to be, thus making themselves seem super knowledgeable. And the use the relationship to sell stuff.

I have never once been asked a question about my diet from an M.D.

What a ridiculous statement! Naturopaths are not better educated than MD’s on nutrition.

M.D.s are trained in nutrition. Where? Not in medical school. https://nutrition.org/a-time-for-change-nutrition-education-in-medicine/ …
