Summary: Excellent Book!
Comment: This great book is must-have for all parents. I have read several chapters of this book since I checked it out from the library. I strongly believe that integrative medicine is best approach whether to treat a child or an adult since you are what you eat. Unfortunatetely, there are very few doctors out there who integrate this approach. Most doctors rather seek agressive drug treatments rather than understanding the root of the cause. I found most of the chapters informative. I wished that there were a whole chapter dedicated exclusively on the prenatal nutrition instead of just two pages. Utimately, whatever kind of food that a mother consumes while she is pregnant will have an effect her child's wealth being.
I would have given a 4 and 1/2; however, there isn't such a rating.

Summary: Complementary medicine is a scam
Comment: I only had to read the introduction to this book to get a clear picture of its agenda. Complementary medicine is just the allopathic world's way of double-dipping to maximize profits. It's okay to pop a few vitamins as long as you're still coming in for those prescriptions for allopathic medicine, and of course the big cash cow: VACCINATIONS. The big give-away to parents should be the statement that Dr Ditchek (or was it Greenfield) will not take patients who refuse vaccination. Vaccination has no role in any home where good health is desired. All those ailments: ear infections, asthma, etc are all vaccine-caused. This book wouldn't even be needed if people didn't poison their child's blood stream with vaccines. My unvaccinated child has never had an ear infection or a fever over 102. If you want a real book on raising healthy kids: How To Raise A Healthy Child In Spite Of Your Doctor by Dr Robert Mendelsohn.

Summary: A healthy mix
Comment: When I received this book, I was looking at it from a fairly critical point of view. I wanted to give my daughter the best start that I could without wanting a medical "fix" for everything that went wrong, while at the same time being prudent about what she would need from modern medicine to be healthy. After reading chapters that had addressed issues such as immunizations, eating, sleeping, and antibiotics, I had found that the pediatricians who wrote this had a good mix of conventional medicine as well as alternative medicine. It is a book has pulled methods of both scopes of practice and has formed a new way of looking at health through both conventional and alternative methods.
