Razi Berry is the publisher and producer of the award winning journal NDNR: Naturopathic Doctor News and Review, the International Journal of Naturopathic Medicine, The Natural Cancer Prevention Summit, and the preventive health resource NaturalPath.

Main Questions Asked:

• How did Razi Berry get involved in naturopathic medicine?
• Tell us all about cancer and the upcoming Cancer Summit.
• What are the most common sources of radiation?
• What kind of experiments can we run ourselves to see the effects of radiation?

Key Points Made by Razi Berry:

• The body has to be understood as a whole, not as individual isolated systems.
• NDNR (Naturopathic Doctor News and Review) was created to unite Naturopathic doctors.
• Sometimes traditional medicine can’t identify the actual source of your symptoms. A naturopathic doctor can identify the causes of illness that traditional medicine may miss.
• Naturopathic medicine helps reinforce our body’s natural homeostasis.
• The modern system of traditional medicine isn’t working well for doctors or patients. A large majority of doctors would describe their practice’s morale as negative.
• In 2016, 14 million people will be diagnosed with cancer, so it is important to find out all about cancer.
• Cancer is generally caused by our environments and the things we are exposed to day to day, so knowing all about cancer is the first step in prevention.
• Vitamin D deficiency is a leading cause of cancer in our modern society.
• Wireless devices, laptops, cell phones, are common sources of radiation exposure.
• Children tend to be more susceptible to radiation than adults. Minimize the devices that your children are able to interact with.
• Grounding, where you physically touch your bare feet to the earth, can help your body naturally detox.
• You can see the effects of radiation on sprouts. Sprouts growing next to a source of radiation like a cell phone will grow slower than sprouts grown normally.
• The body is electric and is affected by different sources of energy.
• Educating yourself on using technology safely is important to protecting your body from dysfunction.
• Put your cell phone on airplane mode when not using it.
• Avoid wireless technology in your home.
• The effects of good gut health can be far reaching. If you’re experiencing headaches the source could be an imbalance in your gut bacteria.
• The Smart Meter being installed nationwide is a source of radiation that can be easily removed. A simple phone call to the hydro company can get an analog meter installed instead.
• A naturopathic doctor is an important part of your family’s health care team.
