Kelly walks you through some basic types of malnourishment seen commonly in children and provides simple solutions to help improve your child's health. I probably would have said "Heal Your Child" instead of "Cure Your Child", but it's not my book. Food sensitivities and attention disorders run on one side of our family, and although our son doesn't seem to show symptoms of them now, I wanted to be prepared to monitor him for possible symptoms. After realizing that our son eats slabs of even grassfed butter on their own and occasionally toe walks at a very young age, we realized that he probably needs a cod liver oil supplement to ensure that he's getting the right fatty acids in his diet during these crucial brain-building years. My husband even said "I'm so glad you read that book."
