Welcome:

to the Alternative Medicine Blog!

With this blog I hope to contribute to the growing demand of good, sound information on the topic of Complementary and Alternative Medicine. I am currently enrolled at Everglades University B.S. in Alternative Medicine program. In my studies I discover volumes of vital information which make it necessary for me to "post as I go".

Educated as a Chef in Austria (please se my profile) I find the connection between food and health rather intriguing.

This weblog is intended for one simple purpose, the moment I learn new information, I'll post it to open discussion, educate, learn myself, and hopefully encourage people to move one step closer to health as defined by the WHO (World Health Organization):

Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.

The correct bibliographic citation for the definition is:

Preamble to the Constitution of the World Health Organization as adopted by the International Health Conference, New York, 19-22 June, 1946; signed on 22 July 1946 by the representatives of 61 States (Official Records of the World Health Organization, no. 2, p. 100) and entered into force on 7 April 1948.
