The continual cropping of soils, and thus stripping of mineral content, combined with the use of herbicides and pesticides, is leading to drastic changes in human nutrition and soil ecology. By taking the salivary and urinary indices, the guesswork of prescription is eliminated as the salts can be prescribed not only by their well-known homeopathic symptomatology, but also verified by scientific analysis. Monitoring of a patient's improvement is also easily demonstrated. So often, the Doctor is at a loss to remember, yet alone master, basic fundamentals in chemistry since college years gone by. This course reviews not only the basics, but some lost fundamentals as professed by Dr. Milhouse.
Ionic chemistry is the core fundamental of both agricultural and human ecology.
Geochemistry has much to do with the earth's biological terrain and the future of agriculture and human nutrition. It is today impossible to visualize a nutritional system without a profound understanding of hormones , vitamins, and enzymes. The energy given off from the digestion, combined with air, is what the human actually lives on. This is a key understanding to the Naturopathic Process of healing, clinic practice, and operating a health farm or spa. There is not an organ of the human system, next to the brain, that has more responsibility in the body for its nutritional status than the liver.
