It is insanely mind boggling how many dangerous toxins readily make up many of the mainstream skin care products targeted for our children.

Every kid loves face paint! But when we read that 10 out of 10 of the face paints that Environmental Working Group tested for lead were positive, we were spooked!

So much for thinking organic milk was a safe alternative to conventional milk. Well, for many reasons it is a safer alternative (no hormones, antibiotics, etc.) but when it comes to A1 and A2 proteins, organic milk may have them both. I was unaware of A1 and A2 proteins until recently when I was introduced [...]
I can’t say that I have ever REALLY enjoyed reading a cookbook like this one! Eating For the Whole Family by Cynthia Lair is positively inspiring! Feeding the Whole Family is the bible of healthful eating! Encouraging breastfeeding, recommending starter solid foods, and then on expanding the diet of an older baby. Even answering the [...]

Autism is on the rise. One in every 100 children today are being diagnosed with autism, and most of them are boys. Being 5 months pregnant with a son, it’s a topic that concerns and worries me tremendously. In my opinion, not enough unbiased studies have been done, and the real causes still remain unknown. [...]

Knowing now the dangers of fire retardant to our children, the thought of having my baby face down, or even face up, on a product that is riddled with these dangerous chemicals is frightening. It is also unsettling to think that a mattress can be labeled “organic”, and STILL contain toxic hormone, reproductive, and neurological-disrupting [...]
I think every parent goes through the “I can’t get my child to eat anything healthy!” phases. Believe me, we have tried many of the sneaky ways to hide nutritional goodness in food, let me tell you. Like the spinach in the blueberry cake trick. But I have to say, Parma! really does take home [...]

“I’m writing about the challenge of finding safe toys for Christmas. Have you found it’s any easier to find safe toys, now that Congress passed the CPSC law? It doesn’t take effect until February, so I’m wondering if parents can shop with confidence, or if they still have to be careful, checking out each individual [...]
Ever since my daughter started eating solids, I wondered if a supplement was necessary. If so, what do I look for? Can they really boost her immune system and keep her healthy? Are they overkill and a waste of money if she is eating healthy foods? All of these questions and so many different products [...]

Being sensitive to dairy, as many people are, I grew up with a lot of intestinal problems. My mother thought, as many still do now, that milk was good for me.
