"Our goal is to create an online resource where people can easily find and access the information they need to become and stay naturally well," said Dr. Laux. "The conventional medical model is based on treating disease symptoms primarily with synthetic drugs, but I believe it is only through natural medicine and measures that we can create and maintain true health."

"What you'll find on drmarcuslaux.com is the latest research on the best of natural medicine, articles on science- and evidence-based natural therapies that work, healing therapies with diet and supplementation, plus natural treatment protocols for specific conditions," he added. "This site has the full story--from an insider's perspective--and provides clear guidance that can help everyone live healthier lives."

"We're excited to bring Dr. Laux's unique knowledge, expertise and guidance to the online community," says Jon Missner, senior vice president of sales, marketing and internet development for Phillips Health. "His background and experience allows consumers to take an exciting step forward in finding effective solutions in the field of natural medicine."

Dr. Laux has taught at National College of Naturopathic Medicine in Oregon and the Emperors College of Traditional Oriental Medicine in California and is currently an affiliate faculty member at Bastyr University in Washington. After 15 years of private practice, Dr. Laux has turned his focus to researching, writing and lecturing around the world on science-based natural medicine. He appears regularly in the media--including CNN, BBC and FOX--discussing natural treatment options that combine the wisdom of nature with the best of modern science. Dr. Laux has also served as a scientific advisor to some of the leading nutritional supplement companies in the United States.
