what reasons could their be for my inability to loose weight?
i never eat more than the serving size and rarely eat fattening foods. i take 2 hour walks daily less if im sick or injured. i am taking this health class that seems to be based solely in making you think if your overweight by 2 lb's your going to die of cardiovascular disease. i have tried : blood type diet cutting out soda cutting out red meat cutting out bread. more exercise. diet pills some other diets. having small meals throughout the day with no large meals. skipping meals entirely. i asked my dr why he said possibly thyroid but the test only has 39% accuracy and i am phobic of needles so i only did the test once. i am concerned i need to go in and ask more things of this dr he just claims im fat and i cant have anything to fix it. ive experienced recently: nausea if i dont have food to a point of vomiting.(nothing comes out) coughing very badly constant and persistent stomach acid. drowsiness. this is AFTER i left home before i was having these symptoms that are no longer there but may be part of the reason for the above issues: (ones that occasionally still happen will be marked with *) anxiety/ panic attacks* acid so bad i was unable to eat anything for 2 weeks i had to force myself to eat and was in hell i felt like a pitchfork was in my stomach. loss of vision it would cut out occasionally.* circulatory problems* i rarely ate i was afraid to eat in front of people and i dont know why. when i fell to my knees i couldnt get up because of my joints. more coughing.* inability to sleep.* constant sweating with no weight loss. fainting. what should i ask my dr about??? no dr has found out wtf is wrong with me yet what kind of specialist should i see? they did an intestinal biopsy of me after i couldnt eat and i believe i am suppose to have a sensitive tract not sure what its called and they believed a food allergy but it wasnt proven they said that was probably incorrect. add: also i had a nutritionist who turned out to be a kook . if that is what i require what should i look for in one

Should I really study naturopathy?
Hi, I am an 18 year old male and next year I plan to do a Bachelor of Health Science (Naturopathy). It is a 4 year degree that I think qualifies you above regular Advanced Diploma graduates. However I am not sure if this is the career I will settle in, really I am not very scientific and prefer humanities. I was first engaged in natural health a year ago when I first visited a health food store and got some supplements to help with my depression/anxiety. Needless to say I didn't really notice an effect but I kept returning to health shops and trying new things like herbs, teas and minerals in order to heal my acne and stress. Before I was involved in such things I already knew some things about the world and in particular the deliberate evil of conventional medicine. I don't know how to describe myself? - skeptic, conspiracy theorist? Whatever, the point is I was all into 'that stuff' and so I readily was interested in natural health and started looking into it after the health shop visit. A few months ago I discovered the blood type diet and had my first consultation with a naturopath. Since the start of this year I have been considering studying natural health. But what will I really do with a degree in science? Even though naturopathy is my thing, I am not seeing myself sitting down in a white lab coat in a clinic talking with clients etc. I want to help people, especially those afflicted/following conventional medicine, but I don't see myself in the bedside manner position. I am really really keen to get a job in a health food store (I have cultured a love of these shops - love the atmosphere, and breeziness and haze of the workers (always female though), and seeing regular people come into the shop and look for something natural to help them). But the managers say they only hire people studying naturopathy, etc... I don't know - I seem to have lost touch with the humanities subjects since the start of the year. I want to be a fiction writer but not as a profession, just off-side. Yet what else could you do with a naturopathy degree? What would you study post grad?

Iridology question - toxins in eyes?
When I went to see a naturopath a few months ago we did an iridology scan and highlighted how some areas of my body in poor health were reflected in my iris. This included murky-orange patches (toxins) and wobbly line things radiating from it. A healthy person in general should have clear eyes with no orange toxins and the lines radiating from the pupil should be straight and uniform. My eyes are blue and the images taken were similar to this: http://www.knowledgerush.com/wiki_image/9/9e/Iris.eye.225px.jpg Among the areas of my body in poor health my naturopath cited possible thyroid problem history in my family, poor liver health (which is probably true by far) and poor digestion (which I know). I can't remember others she may have said as I have lost contact and moved to a new city. I would REALLY like to have "clear eyes" with straight lines and zero toxins. People when judging my eye colour sometimes say 'hazel' or 'greeny-blue' or 'bluey-orange' which is NOT true as my eyes are blue and their perceptions are influenced by the haze of toxins! I also feel paranoid that people with the "clear eyes" I describe judge me as being in poor health because of my eyes. I also have an inkling that perhaps my poor eyesight (short sightedness) could be because the toxins are clouding my view. But hey my point is that I want to remove these toxins asap and that I have been following a blood type diet for 3 months and I still have the same if not more toxins. I am only 18 and in my younger days it is fair to say my diet wasn't exactly good but now it is, I supplement as well. Can anybody tell me if toxins actually do go away in time? And maybe fill me in on iridology concepts again?
