The problem is when we have NDs who use real common sense help on nutrition, lifestyle changes and then add on something totally unproven and blur the line between what is going to help you and what isnīt.
I think weīve all agreed the placebo affect is something NDs can truly offer up as real help to people, but why are people so willing to accept things that simply have no basis in reality with regards to the claims made?
In order for this field to be taken seriously they have to regulate and work towards legitimizing themselves and distancing themselves from homeopaths, healing touch practitioners, etc..

I think there is a misconception that ND's or homeopathic doctors. But those are two totally different things. although some ND's do practice homeopathy, but everybody that argues against an ND is usually taking about a homeopathic 'doctor' for their reasoning
