This bestselling book explores both the extent to which chemicals impact our everyday lives, particularly our babies and children, and what it takes to live wisely in a toxic world. To live wisely, Chemical Free Kids explores the many dimensions of living in wellness – meaning more than simply the ‘absence from disease’. The term extends what has historically been a static notion of health to one that explained the dynamic relationship arising between people and their environment, and is determined by the choices and decisions individuals and families are making in their everyday lives.
