Why “Kitchen Table Medicine”?
When you think about it, the kitchen table is truly the heart of medicine. Good health begins with good nutrition; therefore good health ultimately starts at the kitchen table. The kitchen table also represents another important aspect of human health which is connecting to others. Family time and time spent socializing with friends surround the kitchen table.
We hope that guests of this website will quickly feel part of the community here, and as comfortable as if they were chatting with us over a nice cup of green tea at their own kitchen table. Many people find doctors stuffy or intimidating. Our goal with this website is to provide approachable, understandable, fun, and FREE quality health education, while connecting people to others with similar health conditions and goals.
Also, we hope that our website will serve as a friendly reminder to sit down at the kitchen table, and enjoy meals rather than eating on the run, at our desks, or in front of the television.
Get healthy with us! Feel free to subscribe, leave comments and join the conversation!
