This is what I do with my life … what you call a title like this?

I would like to know everything about the human body, how it works, and be able to help people in changing their diets, lifestyles and physical condition. I am in therapy and alternative methods of prevention when it comes to any disorder or disease. I love helping people improve their lives and reach their full health potential. I do not know where to start or what type of degree I would have to be able to do this stuff for a living. Can anyone help?

I suggest becoming a naturopathic doctor. A prestigious school CT offers the degree. It combines aspects of medicine and the overall health of an alternative route to safety. Here is the link. Good luck!
