• The strangest part of this book is the chapter at the end about transgender kids. The author draws a connection between environmental toxins and gender dysphoria. Is our gender, self-image, sexual orientation, and phenotypical sex expression affected by artificial hormones (e.g., xenoestrogens), hormone blockers, and toxic pesticides like atrazine? Will performing surgery on healthy bodies solve these mind-body conflicts?

Diet for a Poisoned Planet

It is from the author of the groundbreaking bestseller Diet for a Poisoned Planet and The Safe Shopper's Bible: A Consumer's Guide to Nontoxic Household Products, Cosmetics, and Food with Samuel Epstein. This is a must-have book for every parent. Why? Every parent wonders:

• Am I buying products for my child that are filled with chemical toxins?

This powerful new book, Raising Healthy Children, Director of the Chemical Toxin Working Group and one of America’s premier environmental activists Steinman shows how today’s most popular items —

• bubble bath
• cleaning products
• snack (junk) foods

Mommy, why do toxins smell funny?

— are all contaminated with unacceptable levels of pesticides and chemical toxins [excipients, preservatives, flavor and texture enhancers, addictive agents], and he proposes alternatives and substitutes to keep families safe.

Steinman reveals never-before-seen test results for major brands like Johnsons & Johnsons, Kellogg, Tide, Clairol, and General Mills that identify exactly which products contain these dangerous ingredients.

The Safe Shopper's Bible: A Consumer's Guide

He casts a wide net, showing how beauty products and 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 the tools needed to shop for everyday products that are toxin-free and helping readers ask the right questions about their local schools and workplaces to determine their potential levels of exposure.

He writes, “The goal of this book is to show you how to keep you and your family safe and healthy.”

Silent Spring (Rachel Carson)

When Steinman published his acclaimed bestseller Diet for a Poisoned Planet, it was compared to Rachel Carson’s classic Silent Spring for bringing to light the chemical toxins in our food.

Now, more than 30 years later, Steinman brings readers up to date on the increased dangers we face in all aspects of our lives and teaches us how we can make smart choices to protect our ourselves and our children.

Raising Healthy Children is an inspiring, informative, and user-friendly book to help every family reduce their toxic exposures and ensure their health and well-being.
