Sometimes good parents have difficult children, very difficult children!   The reason may be right under your child's nose.  Consider that marshmallow breakfast cereal she consumed, or the fluorescent vitamins he takes, or the bubble gum flavored medicine.  Do you know what gives these things their pretty colors?  How about the "fruity" flavors that have never set foot outside a chemistry lab?  This book is about families who have found that good parenting techniques don't usually work for a child who is reacting to some of the many synthetic chemicals in his food.  They have seen first hand how today's typical diet is loaded with strange additives that can directly affect their child's behavior and ability to pay attention.  Add to that the countless health problems that are being triggered by a steady diet of "foodless foods."   The good news is that these parents have also found solutions!  Yes, you can have it both ways.  This book shows you how to find the foods your family enjoys, but without the unwanted chemical additives, whether you are at a health food store, the supermarket, the mall, the Quickie Mart, or McDonald's.
