Description

For sample adults who had seen a practitioner for naturopathy during the past 12 months (NATYR) and had used naturopathy for a specific health problem or condition (NATTREAT), NATUSCOMBO indicates whether they had used naturopathy because "naturopathy combined with conventional medical treatments would help you."

Other reasons for using naturopathy that were recorded by the survey, and the associated IHIS variables, are:

• NATUSHCREC (Health care provider recommended)

• NATUSENERGY (Enhanced energy)

• NATUSWELL (General wellness)

• NATUSMEDCOST (Medical treatments expensive)

• NATUSMEDFAIL (Medical treatment not help)

• NATUSINTER (Interesting to try)

• NATUSIMMUN (Improved immune function)

• NATUSRELREC (Family or friends recommended)

For information about the full range of variables related to naturopathy, including definitions, see NATYR.
