Quotes

“I am what I am, I am a naturopathic physician. I will come from a prevention point of view, I will come for restoring function, trying not to replace function.” (3:38)

“Feeling healthy is much more infectious than disease. Health will spread far faster in your patient population than disease ever will.” (8:44)

“We need to be warning people very very differently, that any source of chronic inflammation is your warning sign, if you manage that or handle it naturally you should be fine.” (22:24)

“I think cardiology has never been that adverse to nutritional models and things like that. But there is just such overwhelming evidence in the effect of what we are doing and how it is working that even the most staunch conventional doctors are starting to change the way that they think.” (42:47)
