–Rosemary M. Caron, PhD, MPH, Associate Professor and MPH Program Director, Department of Health Management and Policy, University of New Hampshire

“As a mother and health care provider, I was relieved to find this realistic guide to keeping one’s family safe. This is a “must-read” for anyone interested in improving the health of themselves, their loved ones and society as a whole.”

Most of us would like to believe that all products in the marketplace are safe for our families, however, the opposite is true. The reality is that ingredients in many common household products are linked with a range of health disorders.

Greening Your Family is a valuable reference guide for parents to make informed decisions about the consumable products we buy on a regular basis. Information is arranged in an easy-to-use format that allows readers to quickly find what they need. The book includes numerous tables and product lists, recipes for making homemade cleaners, and a variety of web-based resources. Perfect to bring to the store and consult while shopping, Greening Your Family offers busy families an important tool they can use for optimal health.

The book also raises awareness about the legislative landscape, where there is currently little governmental oversight around dangerous chemicals used in food, personal care, and cleaning products. Author Lindsey Carmichael explains how scary, shocking and outrageous this is, promotes advocacy on a grass roots level, and outlines how we can take action to make our families safer.
