 Cara Natterson
There is no doubt that children today are living in an increasingly toxic world. Parents are more worried then ever, and conflicting reports in the media and rumors on the playground can cause even more confusion about which products are perfectly safe and which are harmful, even deadly. Dangerous or Safe?: Which Foods, Medicines, and Chemicals Really Put Your Kids at Risk provides parents with concrete answers on what foods, chemicals, and medicines pose real danger to kids. Combining scientific data, medical expertise, and a parent's intuition, Dr. Cara Natterson – a top pediatrician and mom herself – outlines these threats by first explaining the newest scientific research and then providing a "bottom line" for parents to follow based on the facts and her medical expertise. Making complicated medical and scientific information accessible, Dr. Natterson shows parents how to maximize their children's health and safety. Natterson has treated thousands of children in private practice and has written two books on pediatrics. She works closely with Telepictures Productions, contributing to momlogic.com, and has appeared as an expert on CNN and the Today show. Dr. Natterson is a graduate of Harvard and Johns Hopkins School of Medicine.
