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), NATUSINTER indicates whether they had used naturopathy because "you thought it would be interesting to try."

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)

• NATUSCOMBO (Helps combined w. conventional med)

• NATUSIMMUN (Improved immune function)

• NATUSRELREC (Family or friends recommended)
