MLM and Naturopathy: Friends or Foes?

As the MNHLRP lobbyist Karen Studders says, "the answer is mixed".
Many diet supplement multi-level distributors acquire bogus Doctor of Naturopathy degrees from diploma mills as a marketing ploy for their pyramid schemes.
It is one of the main reasons the MLM companies fight regulating licensable naturopathic doctors.
In contrast, the licensed NDs' professional organizations consider MLM schemes unethical and, in some cases, even expressly prohibit their members from engaging in MLM activities.
Look at the College of Naturopathic Physicians of British Columbia Advertising Policy:
