Raising a New America approaches the children’s health crisis from a “whole child” perspective. So
that parents can better understand how and why children become unhealthy and
diseased, Raising a New America establishes the interrelated elements of
America’s lifestyle and its consequences on today’s children. It provides
parents statistical explanations for what they see happening in the minds,
bodies, and spirits of their children. With cutting-edge scientific research to
back up every claim, it examines the silent inflammation resulting from the
proliferation of toxins in their world: from the foods and pseudo-foods they eat
(The Fast Food Factory), to the cumulative effects of
the “juveceuticals” they take, to environmental toxins present where they live
and study. Last but not least, it connects the documented effects of
over-stimulation from television, video games, and computers to packed
schedules, broken families, and broken hearts.
Raising a New America a goes far
beyond the problem and its causes, offering the promise of solutions already
working for parents and kids across the U.S. Advances in prevention and healing
are keeping pace, as health professionals and scientists explore the connections
between the physical, mental, and emotional aspects of the body. Integrating new
health modalities with deepened values for family, the environment, and
spirituality, they are discovering a promising path for healing and renewal.
