CANDJ Archives
(formerly Vital Link)
- Introduced in 1993, the Vital Link was the journal of the Canadian Association of Naturopathic doctors (CAND) and was the most widely circulated naturopathic publication among Canadian NDs. Available to CAND members in both print and digital formats, it featured clinical and research-based papers for health-care professionals practicing naturopathic and integrative medicine. Published three times per year, the Vital Link featured original content covering a range of clinically-relevant topics and offered readers clinical pearls, practical guidance, reviews of the literature and the newest treatment protocols with each article providing a comprehensive review of particular causal factors of illness and disease.
