Pioneer Health Crusader | Slayer of Dragons
A celebrity expert on women's health, she was shunned as a disinformation proponent during the covid saga. In the end, she was right, and the media that trolled her have been proven wrong.
“They take an oath to do no harm, but these doctors are spreading misinformation about the Covid vaccine,” said Northeastern University. “Meet Christiane Northrup, doctor of disinformation,” is a Portland Press Herald headline. “Christiane Northrup, once a New Age health guru, now spreads covid disinformation,” proclaims the Washington Post. She was an honored, celebrated guest on Oprah Winfrey’s stage, perhaps ten times, but was immediately banned from that stage, and deplored in other ways. These giants, and many more, followed their script, ganged up on Dr. Christiane Northrup and others like her. She stood up to the gang and is still a shining light for women’s health and holistic health in general.
Dr. Christiane Northrup1 is a well-known physician, author, and public speaker who has significantly impacted the field of women's health and wellness over the last 40 years. Trained as an OB/GYN, she earned her medical degree from Dartmouth Medical School and completed her residency at Tufts-New England Medical Center. Early in her career, she co-founded the Women to Women clinic in Yarmouth, Maine, being one of the modern pioneers here in the US to professionally integrate both traditional and holistic approaches to medicine … and help forge the path to more ubiquitous acceptance of holistic medicine.
Dr. Northrup rose to fame in the mid-1990s with her bestselling books such as Women’s Bodies, Women’s Wisdom and The Wisdom of Menopause, which have made her a household name in women’s health advocacy.
Part of this fame has stemmed from multiple appearances on The Oprah Winfrey Show and The Dr.Oz Show as a women's health expert. Discussions included various subjects related to holistic health and wellness for women and are contained in her bestselling books where she emphasizes the connection between mind, body, and spirit in women’s health and the importance of listening to one’s body signals. One of her key appearances was related to her groundbreaking work on menopause, coinciding with the release of her book The Wisdom of Menopause. During this episode, she discussed the emotional, psychological, and physical changes that women experience during menopause, offering insights that resonated with many, including Oprah herself, who was navigating this life stage at the time.
Offering holistic approaches to managing symptoms, Dr. Northrup encourages women to view aging and menopause as positive, transformative life phases. She also discusses hormonal health and balancing hormones naturally, looking at the role of emotional well-being in maintaining hormonal health. Northrup includes how women can tap into their own intuition to guide their health decisions, which she believes can complement traditional medical advice.
Dr. Northrup’s conversations often revolve around empowering women to take charge of their health, tapping into the body's natural wisdom, and addressing the topics of hormonal changes, the importance of self-care, and holistic approaches to physical, emotional and spiritual wellness. Her guidance on topics like menopause, women's bodies, and wellness have struck a chord with a wide audience, and have been pivotal in expanding her reach as an advocate for women’s holistic health practices – helping position her as a thought leader in women's health and contributing significantly to her popularity and the widespread acceptance of her philosophies.
Over the years, Northrup has moved beyond conventional medical practice to focus on writing and public speaking, promoting holistic and alternative health approaches to natural wellness.
More recently, Dr. Northrup has been involved with Cardio Miracle, a supplement aimed at improving cardiovascular health by boosting nitric oxide production in the body.
Studies show that Cardio Miracle supports heart health, immune function, and overall vitality by leveraging nitric oxide's ability to improve circulation and is based on scientific research,2 including the Nobel Prize-winning discovery of nitric oxide's role in cardiovascular function.
Dr. Northrup endorses Cardio Miracle as part of her broader wellness philosophy, promoting it for its potential to enhance heart health and overall energy. She said: “When I was introduced to Cardio Miracle several years ago, I was thrilled to finally find an answer for nitric oxide and Vitamin D3. I take it every day and recommend it to my subscribers, colleagues, and family. It is a GAME CHANGER!”
This combination of holistic health principles and cutting edge supplements underscore Dr. Christiane Northrup’s evolution from a traditional medical expert to a holistic wellness advocate where she views the body interacting and healing itself with natural solutions.
It will be interesting to watch what happens in the media and in the health / wellbeing world over the next few years with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as the Secretary of Health. Whatever happens in the overall domain, Dr. Christiane Northrup has proven herself a health warrior, willing and able to defend her training and research, no matter what the scripted media and “health” dragons might throw her way.
