It's very humbling to be a committee member and part of a team responsible to add value in the whole area of human health resources, and to be able to hear from people like you who are leaders in the field and who have spent their careers knowing about some piece of it. It's hugely complex. My first career was in growing the health of forests, not an area associated with health care. So it's a humbling experience.
I'm going to focus in on the area of prevention, because in my view that's an area in which we can do far more than we do, and I think the amount of funds that go into health repair and the amount that go into prevention of health problems are out of balance.
I have one more personal biographical detail. I have three grown children, and I have never been in a hospital other than to visit someone else, so I have the good fortune of being very healthy. Prevention is the key, from my experience and my thinking, and that's what I wanted to ask about.
In terms of the comments that were made on research, can somebody comment on whether you believe there is adequate research into complementary and alternative professionals like naturopathic physicians and the care they provide and the modalities they use?
