"Christopher Vasey puts naturopathic medicine back on the map in a
clear, simple, and beautiful fashion. This wonderfully readable
book reveals the basic secrets of the body's ingenious design,
guiding us to a practical understanding of true metabolic healing
and transformation. This is the foundational reference work that
has long been missing." * Marc David, author of The Slow Down Diet
and Nourishing Wisdom and founder and director of the Insti *
"The only word for Christopher Vasey's The Naturopathic Way
is brilliant. It is the best overview of the naturopathic approach
to healing that I have read." * Stephen Harrod Buhner, author of
The Secret Teachings of Plants *
"Every word in this slim volume is carefully chosen, making it a
lean yet comprehensive introduction to naturopathy and traditional
healing methods. Inexpensive and informative, The Naturopathic
Way is an excellent source for those who want to change the way
we approach health and healing for the better." * Curled Up with a
Good Book, May 2009 *
". . . will not only educate the reader, but will empower them to
find natural ways of restoring their balance within themselves
using naturopathic ways. Highly recommended." * Dr. Adam Weiss,
author of The AbSmart and BackSmart Fitness Plans, Aug 2009 *
"Aside from the wealth of information packed into this slim volume,
The Naturopapthic Way also contains detailed information on
how to detox the body, restore Acid-Alkaline Balance and restore
general good health. An excellent guide and reference book to
maintaining well-being in an increasingly toxic world." * Green
Muze, Dec 2009 *
"[Vasey's] book provides a comprehensive set of naturopathic tools
to help us restore our optimum health. Great handbook to keep on
your shelf for reference." * Four Corners, Feb/Mar 2010 *
"Amongst naturopathic writers I've come across, few can match Vasey
for the symmetry, simplicity, and directness with which he manages
to get his point across. He renders into simple language and
instruction what most others prefer to present as complex. If you
do nothing more than absorb and inwardly digest the principles of
healthy living he describes and codifies in this book, you could
end up, in my personal opinion, living a longer, healthier, and
happier life than might otherwise have been the case." * Huw
Griffiths, New Dawn Magazine, No. 119, Mar/Apr 2010 *
"This book is full of good information. The book is not light
reading and may take some time to get through it. But it's worth
the effort. The advice Vasey gives can be very beneficial,
especially if used under your care giver's guidance." * Patricia
Snodgrass, Facing North, December 2011 *
