Customer reviews for 'Smart Medicine for a Healthier Child'

Very useful

Useful, no nonesense advice. It gives you advice on homeopathic remedies, stuff around the house remedies, and drugs too. This is my new go-to book for my infant and myself too...

Old Version Better

The book has excellent content, however the new version, 2003, is printed in an awful font, hard to read, boring to look at and so on. The original version was written in an easy to read font and contents were in different colors. It was easy to find what you were looking for when your up in the middle of the nite with a sick baby. In their attempt to cut costs, the publisher has really diminished the value of this product.

Well-Rounded for ALL Parents

This book has finally combined all views of medicine from the conventional to the all-natural. I enjoyed sharing this book with my pediatrician, who had great things to say about my approach. I love this book and reach for it every time I suspect a cold or illness. We use it for the entire family! Great all around book. I would give this book to ANYONE, not just those seeking natural treatments.
