NatureMed.org - Your guide to patient driven medicine

Welcome to the Institute for Natural Medicine (INM) website -your complete resource for reliable information about naturopathic medicine and natural health care. We at INM believe that you deserve the opportunity to make informed choices about your healthcare. The goal of this website is to provide reliable information for patients and the public about natural healthcare options, current research, alternative healthcare professions and education opportunities.

NatureMed.org has no drugs or products to sell, no specific therapies or clinics to promote. Our guiding philosophy is our firm belief that it is vitally important for people to have access to trustworthy information about the natural treatment options that are available through naturopathic medicine. Get the facts about the state of medical care in North America and take charge of your healthcare options. Make informed choices.

Be aware that there are many unsubstantiated claims about so-called "cures". The unregulated nature of the Internet sometimes makes it difficult to separate fact from fiction. I urge you to be cautious, and do everything you can to make sure the information you gather is credible.

The mission of the Institute for Natural Medicine (INM) is to assist in the dissemination of credible information about naturopathic philosophy and natural medicine to consumers, businesses, health care professions, governmental entities and educational institutions, through advancement of educational and research activities. It is the vision of INM to play a leading role in making available authoritative information in the field of natural health. NatureMed.org will meet the growing public demand for a reputable and easily accessible "one stop shop" resource that provides credible information to the general public about natural medicine approaches, evidence-based research, treatment goals and therapies of naturopathic medicine. The Institute for Natural Medicine is uniquely positioned and qualified to provide unbiased, evidence-based, and authoritative information concerning natural and preventive approaches to health.
