Great Reading for Every Parent

Loved this book. Keep it handy at all times. It makes you scared and mad at the same time. Greed by these chemical companies made the world toxic. How do their employees and CEOs sleep at night?

Can't Go Wrong

Although this is information is now a few years old, I can only imagine that things haven't changed. This book gives quite a bit of insight on how disgusting corporate drug, chemical, and even cosmetic companies are and the harmful, un-renewable resources they abuse. Not to mention beneficial advice on the importance of organic ingredients and whole foods. This book scared me enough to keep me away from fruits, vegetables, meat, and dairy products that are maintained with pesticides. I am more aware in many ways because of this book, however is does leave me with some unanswered questions.

Excellent way to learn about toxins in our life

I learned a great deal reading this book. The authors presented the information in a very easy format to understand and I found myself learning the things I wanted to learn very quickly. Best of all they give great resources to order products and learn more. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to know more about the toxins in our life and how to avoid them.

Great Beginning "Get Started, How-To" Book

Perhaps the previous reviewer should have read the whole book, and not just the forward. Although Kirstie Alley was a contributor without much credentials, the book itself was great. The authors provide an easy, readable, "how-to" book, particularly for those new to the concepts of toxicity and healthy change. I would definitely recommend it, and have ordered two additional copies for members of my family!!
