In his powerful new book, Raising Healthy Children, David Steinman, the director of the Chemical Toxin Working Group and one of America's premier environmental activists, shows how today's most popular items-from bubble bath to cereal to cleaning products to snack foods-are contaminated with unacceptable levels of chemical toxins and pesticides, and he proposes alternatives and substitutes to keep your family safe. Steinman reveals never-before-seen test results for major brands like Johnsons & Johnsons, Kellogg, Tide, and Clairol, and General Mills that identify exactly which products contain dangerous ingredients. He casts a wide net, showing how beauty products as well as food items can cause reproductive health issues in pregnant women, and that environmental exposures, particularly in schools, can have a profound impact on babies' and children's development. Drawing on current research, illuminating vignettes, and inspiring stories of activism, Steinman provides action steps for parents in every chapter, giving them the tools they need to shop for everyday products that will be toxin-free and helping them ask the right questions about their local schools and workplaces to determine their potential levels of exposure. 650 0 $a Household supplies $x Toxicology. 650 0 $a Home economics $x Environmental aspects. 650 0 $a Housekeeping $x Environmental aspects. 650 0 $a Children $x Health and hygiene. 650 0 $a Detoxification (Health) 650 0 $a Environmental toxicology. 650 0 $a Environmentally induced diseases. 650 0 $a Parenting. 650 0 $a Food contamination $x Health aspects. 650 0 $a Carcinogens. 650 0 $a Food $x Toxicology. 650 0 $a Hygiene products $x Toxicology. 700 1 $a Lavigne, Sharon C., $e writer of foreword. 941 $a 1 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20240702031701.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=93AA1302383D11EFA74ADF9234ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
