The Cameron Wellness Center: an alternative to big-pharma solutions

Dr. Cameron and the team at The Cameron Wellness Center, and along with other naturopathic physicians as a whole—the aim of Naturopathy—is to find the Cause by actually working with the patient.  Because the truth of it is, there is no pharmaceutical drug out there that cures any disease—just treats the symptoms.

The Cameron Wellness Center

On today’s show we sit down with naturopathic doctor, Todd Cameron, from The Cameron Wellness Center in Sugar House.

Here in America, we have some of the best acute care in the world, but when it comes to chronic care, has the system let us down?

Anyone who has suffered chronic health problems understands the frustrations of the modern medical community, its processes, and its focus on treating symptoms rather than finding the Cause—it becomes a medication carousal run by Big Pharma that eventually begins spinning so fast, there’s no way in hell it would be safe to just jump off.

Conversely, Dr. Cameron and the team at The Cameron Wellness Center, and along with other naturopathic physicians as a whole—the aim of Naturopathy—is to find the Cause by actually working with the patient.  Because the truth of it is, there is no pharmaceutical drug out there that cures any disease—they just treats the symptoms.

And that’s a problem.

This is an eye-opening discussion on the nature of and the place modern medicine has in our modern world, and why Naturopathy is gaining scientific traction.

Topics of discussion include:

—The growing problem of obesity (calories vs. nutrition)
—Utah Being the number one state per capita in anti-depressant usage
—The FDA and the USDA
—Medical Cannabis usage and legality in Utah

  • Public Homeless Campers in Salt Lake City Will Be Seeing More Police Presence

    Public camping on the Jordan River Parkway Trail in Salt Lake City has become a contentious issue, balancing the needs of homeless individuals with the preservation of public space. Despite a Supreme Court ruling allowing cities to enforce anti-camping laws, the humanitarian crisis persists. Tammy and her husband, unable to find housing, live near the river.

    Solutions Utah, led by Dale Keller, addresses homelessness through policy advocacy and clean-up efforts. Keller’s team initiated large-scale clean-ups in 2005, removing tons of garbage. Campers often receive minimal notice to vacate, despite rules requiring 48-hour warnings.

    Tammy shares concerns about crime and insufficient support, desiring a sanctioned campground with basic facilities and security. While Keller supports this idea, bureaucratic resistance hinders progress. As enforcement increases elsewhere, the future for Salt Lake City’s homeless remains uncertain.
