| Allopathic vs. Naturopathic Medicine: Which One Is Best For Me? According to the Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine by Michael Murray, N.D. and Joseph Pizzorno, N.D. "Naturopathic medicine is a system of medicine that focuses on prevention and use of nontoxic, natural therapies." These natural therapies refer to, but are not limited to, proper diet and nutrition, exercise, nutritional supplements, herbology, homeopathy, and lifestyle modification and counseling. Allopathic medicine is defined as orthodox medicine, such as the type practiced by M.D.'s and osteopathic physicians (O.D.'s). Orthodox physicians follow similar diagnostic procedures as naturopathic doctors in that they analyze the patient's symptoms and discern a method of treating those symptoms: usually with prescription medications or surgery or a combination of both. Naturopathic doctors go a step beyond just treating symptoms in order to control the disease. N.D.'s look at the person as a whole. Naturopaths also seek to improve the immune system and the condition of their patients' intestinal flori. While considering which medical route to take when you become ill, consider this: Do you want to eliminate the symptom but still have the disease, or would you rather raise your vitality to a proper standard of health so that illness cannot take root? It's your choice. |
