The Insider's Guide to Natural Health for Mums and Dads.
What is the greatest gift you can give your child? Vibrant good health, of course. But in a world where children as young as ten are being diagnosed with early signs of heart disease, where up to a third of youngsters at an infants' school may be taking Ritalin, a drug that has been banned in Sweden, and where a computer, not a dog, is a child's best friend, how do you get it right?
In this book, Susan Clark, award-winning journalist and one of Britain's leading natural health writers, draws upon years of experience and the very latest scientific research to offer every parent the opportunity to make sound, confident decisions that will benefit their children's health now and in the future.
Susan highlights the health hazards that plague so many youngsters today and unravels the complex and often contradictory information that appears in the media.
Susan also offers invaluable advice and information on:
- The use of vitamins, herbs and homeopathic treatments that can really make a difference to a child's health
- Hands-on therapies, such as infant massage and hand reflexology
- The fascinating key stages of development, from newborn to young adulthood
- How to treat over fifty everyday childhood complaints
- A range of relaxing and quick-fix treats to help busy mums and dads cope with those particularly stressful days
Practical and comprehensive, this is the ultimate alternative health guide for parents everywhere, and one of the most valuable books they will ever own.
