What is Naturopathy?

Naturopathic Medicine

  • Treats the underlying cause of the condition
  • Uses whole natural extract in most natural form without processing
  • No negative side effects
  • Less concentrated and takes longer
  • Focuses on assisting the body to heal itself
  • Treats the cause and not just the symptoms
  • Brings whole physiological system into balance
  • Food and correct nutrition used as a primary medication to assist health
  • Nutritional supplements- vitamins, minerals, amino acids, enzymes, herbs (Chinese and Ayurvedic,) used to complement the diet
  • Homeopathics and isopathics used
  • Use of precursors. (The body converts natural substances into useable form for healing)
  • Encourages body to work on its own equilibrium and stasis production rather than using artificial medicines to do the body’s own job
  • Therapeutic doses of vitamins and minerals used for optimal health can be higher or lower than recommended dose)

Allopathic

Picture
  • Treats the symptoms of the condition 
  • Uses only one chemical component of an extract which standardises the concentration 
  • Contains numerous side effects because standardisation process works in isolation without the help of other balancing ingredients 
  • Relies on other drugs to counteract or negate one drug and its side effects 
  • Drugs used overtake specific functions of the body
  • Drugs used are developed and administered to take effect immediately 
  • Food and diet is not viewed as an essential component of good health. Its role in the overall health of the body is downplayed and disregarded RDA (Recommended Daily Allowance) doses which are recommendations for preventing disease states, are viewed as sufficient for optimal health.
  • The use of allopathic medications relace and overtake the body’s own manufacture of the drug, thereby diminishing the body’s attempts to heal itself
