JOHN ELLIOTT, MS in Natural Health and ND graduate. John is currently completing a second master’s degree in public health at Temple University.

He is pleased to let us know that his colleagues are very receptive to natural health and that he has been able to both educate Temple’s physicians and perform some prevention research at the university.
