Why Supplement
In my clinic as a homeopathic pediatrician, my efforts are dedicated to understanding
what promotes health. This includes what causes, what prevents, as well as what heals
the diverse conditions affecting our children. Careful nurturing through the formative years
creates the basis for good health throughout life. On the physical level, this means a
healthful diet and nutritional supplements.
- Studies from around the world show that modern farming methods have resulted in
depleted soil conditions. Hence, the foods grown on that soil no longer contain the full
spectrum of essential nutrients needed for healthy development, strong immune function
and emotional and mental vitality.
- Fast foods, junk foods, processed foods, poor dietary habits, and the finicky appetites of
many children also require nutritional upplementation to correct, and balance nutritional
deficiencies.
- The extraordinary increase in exposure to environmental pollutants and toxicity from this
century's industrial pursuits creates the need for extra immune and anti-oxidant protection
for today's children.
