by Dr. Nicole Sundene in American Sickcare System, Estrogen, Kitchen Sink, Water April 21, 2008

Thanks to the latest news, pretty much everyone knows that drinking out of plastic water bottles is bad because of the BPA and potential for other contaminants.

by Dr. Nicole Sundene in American Sickcare System, Holistic Nutrition Tips, Kitchen Sink April 20, 2008

Recently I read an article discussing the importance of branding your website or business with the appropriate villains. Which got me wondering who Dr. Nicole’s arch nemesis might be?

*Under Construction* Although much of what is discussed here at “the kitchen table” is based off the premises of good common sense backed by the fundamentals of Anatomy, Physiology, Biochemistry, and all our other favorite basic sciences, I am happy to report that we are an “evidence based medicine” friendly site.
