Schwartz and Keith Garber are the founders of BabyGanics, a line of baby-safe household and body care products. Cognizant of ingredients that might be safe for the earth but not good for baby, they here offer a question-and-answer-style guide to products such as cosmetics (beware of hydroquinone, an antiaging product linked to compromised immune health), food and water (beware of bisphenol, a suspected endocrine disrupter), and even mineral oil, which can form a layer on the skin, sealing pores and trapping bacteria. While much of the information screams, "danger!" the authors aren't fans of the antibacterial hype, and also serve up such common-sense advice as "air out your house each day." -VERDICT -Children definitely have more porous neural pathways than adults and thus should be pampered with that information in mind, however, not everything can be controlled, so the book seems a bit much at times. This work might freak out the uninitiated, but those who are already fans of the -BabyGanics line will appreciate. Purchase accordingly. (c) Copyright 2014.
