Jud is CEO of the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians, the national association representing licensed naturopathic physicians. Jud is responsible for AANP's federal and state advocacy efforts, for increasing public awareness of naturopathic medicine, and for helping to expand the body of naturopathic medicine research. Alternative medicine often gets the short end of the stick when it comes to recognition. But a new initiative passed by the U.S. Senate may change that.
The Senate unanimously passed a resolution designating October 7 – October 13 as Naturopathic Medicine Week.
The resolution recognizes the value of naturopathic medicine in providing safe, effective and affordable health care.

Jud will also speak about the role of naturopathic physicians in preventing chronic and debilitating conditions.
Articulate, passionate and humorous, Dr. Holly Lucille breaks down the myths and misconceptions about health and health related topics.
