6 Section 5. Purpose and findings. The practice of
7naturopathic medicine in the State of Illinois is declared to
8affect the public health, safety, and welfare and to be
9subject to regulation and control in the public interest. It
10is further declared to be a matter of public interest that
11naturopathic physicians and the practice of naturopathic

13public, that only qualified persons be authorized to practice
