| WHY DO WE NOT OFFER
PARABEN PRESERVED PRODUCTS |
|
On January 8,
2004 new evidence published in the Journal
of Applied Toxicology indicates that
parabens (propylparaben, methylparaben,
etc.), the preservatives found in cosmetics
and other products, can be detected in human
breast tumors. Although the connection has
yet to be proven, this research represents
an important link that will be crucial to
further investigations.

Children's Books
Because a great
many of the recipes in the book are raw fresh fruit or fresh
vegetable
"arrangements" such as a "Grapefruit Sun" or "Tangelo
Flower" or "Pear Volcano"
or "Apple and Cheese House" or "Apple Racecar," just calling
it a cookbook does not
quite convey its essence. The book also opens with the
story, "Adventures in Abunda
Gardens" for parents to enjoy with children and to nurture
their youngsters' love of reading. REVIEWS BELOW:
-
"The beauty of
Linda Davis Kyle's new book is that it offers solutions on
numerous fronts to help nurture children; whereas, most
writers have
addressed only nutrition, only children's attitudes, or
only parenting
techniques. Using this book will help to ensure that your
family has not only
healthier meals but also more fun together, keeping fresh
and alive that
special parent and child bond. This book is not just
another cookbook; it
is a workbook for family fun!" -- Guy Lancaster, Editor
Fun Foods for Kids & Grownups
-
"With its
blueprint for good health for life, Fun Foods for Kids &
Grownups
will propel loving parents, grandparents, teachers, and
other caring adults
a giant step in the right direction to help create in
youngsters (and adults)
a healthful, positive attitude about nourishing foods."
-- Michael Janson, MD, Fun Foods for Kids & Grownups
Afterword. WholeHealth New England, Arlington, MA
Editor of Dr. Janson's Healthy Living
-
"Fun Foods for
Kids & Grownups, the latest appropriately titled volume
by Linda Davis Kyle internationally published writer on
health and nutrition,
is a godsend for caring--but busy--parents, care givers,
and others who wish
to impart a healthy attitude toward food in children at a
time when they are bombarded
with alluring advertisements for all kinds of fast junk
food." -- George B. Kauffman, PhD, Professor of
Chemistry, California State University-Fresno
