Different perspectives

Different perspectives are welcome

Members discuss conventional medical care, complementary and naturopathic approaches, lifestyle choices and personal experiences. Different perspectives are welcome, but shared posts are not endorsements or medical advice.

You are free to read different viewpoints, ask respectful questions and decide what you would like to discuss with a qualified healthcare professional.

Moderation

A fairly moderated space

The group is moderated to keep conversations useful and welcoming. Members are expected to treat one another respectfully, keep posts relevant and avoid spam, scams, harassment and misleading promotion.

Because the group is public, people can generally join immediately. Facebook’s automated systems may sometimes hold comments from new members or place activity into an approval process.

Moderation helps protect the community, but it does not mean every post or comment has been medically reviewed, fact-checked or endorsed.
