natural health

Body's innate wellbeing

Natural health refers to approaches to wellness that emphasize the body's inherent healing abilities and favor remedies derived from nature over pharmaceutical interventions.

The term encompasses practices like herbal medicine, nutrition-based therapies, and lifestyle modifications: She turned to natural health after conventional treatments failed.

Often implies skepticism toward mainstream medicine, though practitioners range from evidence-based nutritionists to alternative healers promoting unproven remedies.
