The publisher:

Most parents want to avoid using antibiotics, antihistamines, analgesics and other drugs for their children's ailments — if they can. Here, the problem of finding medicines for childhood illnesses that are both safe and effective is addressed.

Arranged in an easy A-Z format, this book offers parents the option of naturally treating over 100 childhood ailments, using the authors combined 60 years experience of treating sick children using safe and effective non-pharmaceutical medicines.

This book is designed for parents who are looking for medicines that address causes, rather than treating symptoms alone. It is also for those occasions when professional help is not readily available - after-hours, during the night, or when away from home.

Each aliment is listed with a brief description of the condition, its causes, prevention strategies, nutritional recommendations, suggested supplements, medicines and most importantly, when it is time to seek medical attention.
