Parents often feel overwhelmed and defenseless against a never-ending recall list of toys and baby products. Deciphering unpronounceable chemicals they encounter every day can be daunting if not impossible. With environmental exposures being closely linked to 70 percent of birth defects, new parents faced with the overwhelming responsibility for their babies’ health frequently turn to organic products. But they quickly find they don’t have the time to practice a completely green or natural lifestyle.
SMART MAMA’S GREEN GUIDE delivers the information busy parents want and the tools to make informed, individual choices without the demand to go all-out green. Packed with practical tips on eliminating or reducing the hidden dangers of toxic chemicals that lurk everywhere, this book will empower readers to control what comes into their homes and make informed decisions instead of relying on government regulation of harmful chemicals.
If you are at all concerned about toxic chemicals and your family, this book is for you! There is a lot of practical information! Everything from Baby Bibs to Antibacterial Products. Then, there are the more well known toxins (lead) found in cheap jewelry, certain toys (all the on-going recalls), and PVC plastics. It also touches on how environmental exposures are linked to ADD, asthma, and birth defects.
Smart Mama’s Green Guide is not meant to be a scare tactic, but to take the information and apply it as needed to your lifestyle. She also gives you the tools to make informed decisions without the demand to go all out “green” as we all know it can be expensive and time consuming to go all “natural” This is the happy medium.
