Book Overview
The Sears Parenting Library's latest addition is an exploration of how nutrition affects the brains and behavior of youngsters. N.D.D., or Nutrition Deficit Disorder, as coined by Dr. Bill Sears, is based on the idea that if "you put junk food into a child's brain, you get back junk behavior and learning." Dr. Sears will explore the latest scientific research on the effects of nutrition on the brain. He will present case studies of his own patients who were diagnosed as "N.D.D." and showed major improvement in learning and behavior with diet change. Instead of simply medicating his patients, Dr. Sears looked for a better solution -- in fact, with better nutrition, many of his patients were able to greatly reduce or even stop their medication. The book will also provide parents with a prescription, shopping and meal tips, and recipes to make implementing a healthier lifestyle that much easier. The N.D.D. Book will be a must-have for all parents who want to help their children become healthier, happier, and better prepared to learn.

My wife and I are already over half way done with this book. Similar to other books written by the Sears (especially the Vaccine Book) this book is easy to read yet very informative. The book includes great recipe suggestions for all meals. We especially enjoy the "brainy breakfasts" recipes. Our little boy (14 months) has had problems with constipation ever since he began the slow transition to solids. After reading some of the recipes we tried Dr. Sears "Stool-aid/School-aid" smoothie (pg. 182) and our boy's bowels immediately improved and we haven't had had problems since we've been drinking it. The book's information regarding the dangers of food additives and substitutes currently out on the market helps parents make wise and informed decisions about what food to offer their children. It also explains how children's nutrition directly affects the way they act. This is a book we will be sad to see end. The information is great for everyone young and old. We could all learn a little more about how to eat well and especially how to teach the up and coming generations the same.
