And she presents the first nutritional plan for getting and keeping children healthy - a plan that any family can follow. Maya Shetreat-Klein is an integrative pediatric neurologist with a medical degree from Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Board certified in adult and child neurology as well as pediatrics"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>In this "carefully researched, compellingly written game-changer for children's health" (Mark Hyman, MD), Maya Shetreat-Klein, MD, reveals the shocking contents of children's food, how it's seriously harming their bodies and brains, and what you can do about it. And she presents a nutritional plan for getting and keeping children healthy--that any family can follow.</b> <p/>Chronic diseases in children are rising dramatically--from allergies and ADHD to mental illnesses and obesity. A traditionally trained pediatric neurologist and a parent herself, Dr. Maya encountered the limits of conventional medicine when her son suffered a severe episode of asthma on his first birthday and hit a developmental plateau. Treatments failed to reverse his condition, so Dr. Maya embarked on a scientific investigation, discovering that food was at the root of her son's illness, affecting his digestive system, immune system, and brain. The solution was shockingly simple: Heal the food, heal the gut, heal the brain...and heal the child. <p/>Recent changes in growing and processing food harm kids' gut microbiomes, immune systems, and brains, contributing to chronic disease. Dr. Maya "convincingly argues the case for a dirt-filled but chemical-free life" (<i>Publishers Weekly</i>). She used fresh foods and nature to heal not only her son but chronically ill patients from around the world from the inside out and the outside in--and now makes it available in <i>The Dirt Cure. </i>"Full of scientific information presented in a fun and informative way, [with] concrete evidence that good food can transform one's life," (<i>Publishers Weekly</i>), <i>The Dirt Cure </i>shares success stories from Dr. Maya's practice and her tips as a working mother of three on stocking healing foods (from veggies to chocolate!), reading labels, and getting even picky eaters into the new menu. "Reader-friendly" (<i>Kirkus Reviews</i>), this paradigm-shifting "tour de force prescription...to fight and prevent chronic disease" (Robert K. Naviaux, MD, PhD) empowers you to transform your child's health through food and ensure the long-term wellbeing of your kids and the entire family.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"<i>The Dirt Cure</i> is a game-changer when it comes tochildren's health.
