Naturopathic medicine is the perfect type of medicine for chronic disease and focusing on prevention, rather than treating a condition.
So what I mean is we can be more proactive with naturopathic medicine because it uses natural therapies, it allows you to keep your health markers,
your blood work markers in the optimal range, rather than in just the normal range. And it also allows you to be more reactive.
So if you start to notice little changes in your blood sugar, it is the type of medicine that will allow you to prevent diabetes long before it happens.
Naturopathic medicine, I always describe it as, this is what you do to maintain and optimize your health in between your annual checkups
with your medical doctor. So it allows you to focus on being healthy, taking steps to improve and optimize your health every single day,
using a combination of things like nutrition, natural supplements, natural hormone replacement, exercise prescriptions, lifestyle type changes
to help you improve and optimize your health. [LIGHT UPBEAT MUSIC]
