Naturopaths are snake-oil salespeople masquerading as health professionals



ORIGINAL POST

When I began researching and conducting interviews for a feature about naturopaths, I was doggedly determined to keep an open mind.

Journalism 101 dictates balance: a fair hearing to both sides. My commitment was to present the unbiased truth; I was about to embark on a learning journey, as journalists often do.

I interviewed academics from Sydney, Melbourne and the UK, senior medical professionals, sceptics, authors on the subject, naturopaths themselves, those who use them, the professional body for naturopaths, the Australian Medical Associated, the Department of Health, and a naturopath turned dissenter.

What I discovered shocked me.
