Lawrence Stepanowicz, ND is a traditional naturopath who believes in the need for a holistic approach to health that includes body, mind, and spirit.
As a naturopath, he does not diagnose or treat illness. Nor does he prescribe drugs. Rather, as a traditional naturopath, he seeks to educate and empower people by emphasizing a very practical philosophy that most can use to greatly, even miraculously, improve their health:
1. Eliminate ingestion of and exposure to the toxins that are now so much a part of our food, air, and water.
2. Give your body the conditions and nutrients it needs to do what it is supposed to do, repair itself and function properly.
In short, prevention along with good nutrition and supplementation.
Since the term "health care" has been dishonestly hijacked by what is, in truth, a sick care or disease care industry, he wants every person to know that, in reality, "Health care is what YOU do. Sick care is what THEY do."
By being proactive and taking care of their own health, people can minimize their chances of becoming victims of a reactive, sick care, medical model that, by its own admission, kills hundreds of thousands of people annually and injures countless others.
The purpose of practicalhealth.net is to broadcast and teach this philosophy.
