Welcome back to Prevention Not Prescriptions Tuesday. This is a weekly forum where we’re coming together to inform and inspire each other to better health.
It's straight forward and simple. Tuesdays will be our chance to take our health into our own hands and say “hell no” to the pharmaceutical industry’s endless search for profits. Sound like something you want to be involved with? Here are the details on how to participate each week.
Once again, a big thank you to all of our contributors. This edition of Prevention Not Prescriptions is packed full of health questions that will keep you above ground and vibrant. We also have a very interesting discovery about BPAs in organic food, a recipe (and video) for kale chips and a call to action for parents.
Now, in case you missed this must-read article, we’re kicking things off this week with a little satire from Mark Morford (warning: get ready to laugh out loud)…
