Description: Let's Have Healthy ChildrenBy Adelle Davis America's most famous food expert gives the vital nutritional do's and don'ts for expectant mothers, babies, and growing children. The author is pictured on the front of the jacket with her two children. Every expectant mother, be it her first or her fifth child, will want to read this book. It is an invaluable guide - in innumerable ways unlike any other book - which covers the subject of motherhood (even "before conception") and child care through the pre-school age. In this book a woman will find advice on how to prevent and overcome "morning sickness." leg cramps, and fatigue; what to do about weight control, and many other complications of pregnancy. Equally useful information will be found in the chapters devoted to raising a healthy baby. With new emphasis by doctors on the advantages of breast-feeding, the methods outlined will be extremely helpful to mothers who wish to nurse their babies. Other advice on feeding infants - which includes formula making made easy, prevention of spitting up, skin rashes, eating problems, and similar difficulties faced by the new mother - will save her much time and nervous strain. Mothers can achieve health for themselves, actually - feel better during and after pregnancy than they have ever felt before and insure health and beauty for their children by following the simple diet rules outlined in Let's Have Healthy Children. As a nutritionist of wide experience, including many years of working with obstetricians and pediatricians diet problems, Adelle Davis presents strong evidence with case histories and well-documented medical references for her advice concerning sound nutrition. She explains in an interesting narrative the reasons behind today's vitamin and health food consciousness.
