This book is written as a response to the growing health disparities within the African American communities in the US. The goals are to encourage a movement of greater holistic health awareness, empower the reader with knowledge that can be implemented immediately, and provide resources for the future needs of the community. The Black Family Health-O-Pedia was spearheaded by Dr. Turshá Hamilton an author, speaker, and educator. Dr. Turshá felt it was time that Naturopathic Doctors such as herself began to speak up and share their knowledge and experiences with the larger community. She felt that in order to have the African American community really begin to heal, that they must first know who to turn to for safe, accurate information about health and well being. Dr. Turshá invited 3 other brilliant doctors to come on the journey to heal the Black Family. This book is a result of that collaborative effort.
