Natural Standard on Dr. Oz Show

On Tuesday, April 26th, Dr. Catherine Ulbricht, co-founder of Natural Standard, will appear as an authoritative guest on the nationally syndicated television program, The Dr. Oz Show. Dr. Mehmet Oz will discuss Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) and the stigmas that have long been associated with this specialty. Dr. Ulbricht is Chief Editor of both the Natural Standard Research Collaboration and Journal of Dietary Supplements, and she is the Senior Attending Pharmacist at Massachusetts General Hospital. She founded Natural Standard Research Collaboration with Dr. Ethan Basch in 2000 to provide authoritative, evidence-based information on natural products used in healthcare. The show will be aired in New Orleans on WDSU Channel 6 at 2:00 p.m.

The Library has subscribed to Natural Standard since 2007. The database provides high quality, evidence-based CAM information organized by topics such as Foods, Herbs & Supplements, Health & Wellness, and Medical Conditions. Therapies are reviewed and graded using a systematic aggregation, analysis, and review of the literature.
