Hello! My name is Dr. Amanda Cartwright. I am a Naturopathic physician, auricular therapist, author, homesteader, prepper, and event speaker. I am basically a jack of all trades! I am known as ‘The Weed Doc’ basically because all those pesky weeds in your yard….can be medicinal!

In graduate school, I studied natural medicine and the human body – anything from muscle response testing, iridology, body frequency, auricular therapy, vitamin deficiencies, and herbal medicine. I was trained to diagnose and treat in more natural and holistic ways and to bio-hack the human body.

Preparing your body before taking herbs as medicine is just as important as the herbs themselves. It is imperative to balance vitamin and mineral deficiencies and understand how modern ‘pharma’ foods and medicine are destroying the human body. We must get back to the basics to have optimal health.

Having good health and incorporating herbs plays a huge role in my day-to-day life. I use herbs on myself, my family, and my animals. Herbal medicine is a vibrantly alive discipline that is being used actively in many cultures throughout the world today, except for the United States, where it is banned in some states. 

I want to bring awareness to how poorly ran the United States medical system is and how you can get your health at its tip top shape with just a few steps so that you can live a long, happy, healthy life.

As an author, I have written ‘Survival Herbs For Beginners’, ‘Boost Your Lazy Immune System’, ‘Natural Health in The New Covid World’, ‘Herbal Horse Care for the Homesteader’, ‘Herbal Animal Goat Care for the Homesteader’, ‘Herbal Animal Cattle Care for the Homesteader’, ‘What Big Pharma Doesn’t Want You To Know’, and other herbal animal care books based on individual animals. Many of these are available on Amazon, Books-A-Million, Barnes and Noble, and various other bookstores.

On my homestead, my husband and I live off the land and animals. Our goal is to be completely self sufficient. We grow food, milk goats, collect eggs, weave yarn, crochet and knit items, make soap, make butter and cheeses, tan hides, butcher, and thrive from getting back to nature and learning to live the way our ancestors lived many years ago.
