See that's just the problem man. GP's generally don't get trained on this stuff. Some have developed interests and educated themselves. My GP actually accepts this and we can have a real conversation.
There *IS* actually a health-support role for good naturopaths and integrated medicine. Sadly there are bad ones too and they seem to make the news. Unfortunately many people would rather pop pills and drugs for life than change their lifestyle choices. Drugs often result in secondary issues... the symptoms, but not always the cause of the issue(s). It's only once you've been down that nasty road and suffered... then tried an appropriate and properly guided integrated medical approach that actually works that you realize this.
Think of this... 30-40 years ago they told celiacs and other food-sensitivity people that it was just a psychological problem and to get mental help. No joke. I've seen the letter from AHS to someone I know. Today they accept it's possible. Today however there are still those that don't differentiate between ALLERGY and Sensitivity. That's the no-mans land that I fell into before getting it figured out... and the response/recovery was significant. I know several others who have had very positive experiences too.
