The Pitfalls of Self-Diagnosis: Why Crowdsourcing Your Health is a Bad Idea

[video transcript] One of the most common problems I see isn't even a real diagnosis. It's what I would call a self-diagnosis, and my advice would be: don't crowdsource your health!

What do I mean by that? Well, when you're not feeling good, what do we do? We go to the store, we get a remedy, and then when that doesn't work, we tend to ask our friends and family what we should do. In this day and age, a lot of times that's online. And there are entire online forums dedicated to diseases that you don't have, with remedies that you don't need. And if you actually believe all that stuff, and you actually take them, you run the risk of harming yourself.

You Need a Quarterback for Your Health

So what you need is a quarterback. You need someone like myself, who's a naturopathic doctor, who looks at the big picture and helps you connect the dots.

If you need that custom solution, I encourage you to give me a call. I always do a free 15-minute discovery call. No one ever leaves that call without a little more direction for their health. You can also find more information here at drdanwool.com.
