Let me explain. I don’t buy into the manmade global warming business. I believe if you want to be green, learn how to save some energy, plant your own garden and shop locally. That being said, I find this book fascinating because I think it’s a bunch of BS that kids are finicky. My parents were pretty strict with my sister and I when we we toddlers; too bad they weren’t later on. Had they been, my eating styles would have been different.
What I found valuable is the recipes and the natural recipes. Start your children early so they become accustomed to the healthful foods, which will hopefully set them up as healthy adults. While I have no scientific research under my belt, I am convinced that the overprocessed, high sugar, high salt, etc. foods have made us sick. We already know about the obesity issue, but I’m convinced there are fertility issues that came from this.
My wife and I plan to use this as a guide for feeding our baby and the one we are expecting.

Being currently preggers myself, I’m all about getting educated for growing a healthy baby both inside the womb and once he enters the world.
Of all the things I enjoy about this book, I like its arrangement the best. With the regular insertion of recipes, stories, tips, reports and more, this book lends to an ease of reading that’s both episodic (which is often the life of a pregnant and new mother) as well as providing more in-depth information.
I’m fairly well read and abreast on current pregnancy, infant and child nutrition trends (as well as the more traditional approaches) and I have to say that Dr. Greene does an excellent job of bringing in a broad range of information that is both accurate and helpful.
His personal story also goes far in establishing a friendly credibility from him toward the reader.
His approach to sharing information and encouraging parents is valuable in that it’s VERY mindful of appropriate (and realistic) issues that parents will face during different developmental stages of their child’s early life.
Overall, a highly recommended reference reading that will be helpful from before you get pregnant, right trough the toddler years.

This is an excellent guide for eating in the most heatlhy way during pregnancy! It then goes into the best foods for babyhood. I was very impressed by the info compiled here-I have had to hunt and peck for this info all over the place!! I had my first baby 7 years ago and I’m so glad things are finally evolving to include the proper way to feed babies-NOT just the way the food giants want us to eat. If you’ve read Michael Pollens work then you’ll be thrilled to find this version of exactly what to do for your little ones.

A comprehensive look at nutrition and infants. Excellent recipes/suggestions. Should be required reading for nature/natural inclined parents.
