| | Welcome to Minnesota Natural Medicine | | | | ...a place where you can discover and apply the tools of integrative health and pursue a comprehensive approach to solving health care issues. We are a consultative medical clinic and "home" providing a combination of conventional and integrative approaches to health, aging and disease. We do not provide knee-jerk pharmaceutical solutions nor do we believe that everyone needs an antidepressant or statin drug.
We focus on the application of "upstream principles" that are all too often excluded from our medical care. These include the identification of our genetic strengths and weaknesses, biological functions, and nutritional needs that form a unique set of variables that are highly specific. If addressed appropriately, we feel that functional capacity can be optimized, disease activity curtailed, and true prevention practiced. There is nothing "experimental or investigational" about what we do. Necessary time and focus (things you rarely get in your local insurance company-managed care factory) are essential elements in what we do.

The vitamin D - autism connection
"Sun avoidance" may be one of the missing links between the sharp rise in autism cases and changes in the way we function in our communities. Medical "experts" have suggested minimizing sun exposure now for the past 20 years. Is this a good thing?

Finally some common sense on vitamin D....
Here is a landmark editorial signed by most of the important voices in vitamin D research. Now, finally, after fairly irrefutable evidence, we have a concession by knowledgeable people regarding advice from the naturopathic community. Most all conventional MDs have missed the boat for decades on this one.

We Recommend...
These are professionals, services, and retailers with whom Minnesota Natural Medicine has worked and in whom we have a lot of confidence. We will greatly expand this page as time goes on. Finding MDs who understand health from the "inside out" and "strategically" can be daunting.

 | What’s it all about, algae?
A species of algae that is gaining attention as a new superfood is Aphanizomenon flos-aquae, or simply AFA. Much of the AFA in North America is harvested from Upper Klamath Lake in Oregon. AFA contains more chlorophyll than any other food source. It also contains amino acids, vitamins, and trace minerals that aid the immune system and raise energy levels.
