Lendon H. Smith has become the most recognizable "children's doctor" in the nation. His radio and tele- vision appearances (including his own syndicated program), as well as his many books on child care, have earned him a reputation for the sort of down-to- earth advice that parents trust and children thrive on.
In this eye-opening new book, he shows how hyperactivity, disobedience, nightmares, bed- wetting, allergies, frequent colds, and dozens more distress symptoms may be related to poor diet and body chemistry. Chapter by chapter, he explores the various stages - from infancy to high school where problems can arise. And he details a full range of available remedies often a simple change in eating habits.
