Do bad childhood habits develop into unhealthy adult conditions? Pediatrician and author Jennifer Trachtenberg says they do. The fact of the matter is that unhealthy lifestyle habits that plague us later in life develop from an early age. The good news is that these potentially debilitating conditions and precursors to adult diseases can be prevented or lessened by making some very simple lifestyle adjustments. "Good Kids, Bad Habits" provides kids and parents with the means to make a personalised program using the "BehaviorRater" test. Once a basic personalised program is created readers can use the RealAge metric to understand how certain healthy habits will benefit the child in later years. The rest of the book is organised by subject so parents can also jump right to the topic that interests them most, whether it's nutrition or the effects of sleep deprivation.

The definitive program on detoxification just got easier, thanks to multiple New York Times bestselling author Dr. Alejandro Junger’s detailed, personalized, and medically proven seven-day plan that helps us begin to rid our bodies of the multitude of toxins that infiltrate our systems every day.

Each day, too many of us struggle unnecessarily with debilitating health issues, such as colds or viruses, allergies or hay fever, stubborn extra pounds, poor sleep, recurrent indigestion, constipation, or irritable bowel syndrome, itchy rashes, acne or other skin conditions, depression, anxiety, or frequent fatigue. But we don’t have to suffer any longer.

In his bestseller Clean, the international leader in the field of integrative medicine revealed how many of these common ailments are the direct result of toxic build-up in our systems accumulated through daily living, and offered solutions for combatting them. Now, with Clean 7, Dr. Junger makes his groundbreaking program easier and more accessible than ever before. Clean 7 is his medically proven seven-day regimen that provides all the necessary tools to support and reactivate our bodies’ detoxification system to its fullest capabilities. In one week, you can begin addressing those nagging health issues by discovering the foods that harm you and the foods that heal you, lose extra weight, and start to experience what it truly means to be well.

The first seven days of any program are the most critical. Undertaking a new routine is stressful, and tests our commitment, willpower, and focus. Understanding exactly what’s going on in your body—why you might feel fatigue on day two or cravings on day five—is the key to success. A doctor who’s helped millions, Dr. Junger personally guides you through the process, offering a clear, day-by-day, meal-by-meal exploration of what’s happening in your body to keep you focused on your goals.

Filled with the latest science on the brain, and featuring delicious, nutritious recipes, and details on everything from prepping your kitchen to prepping your mind, Clean 7 revolutionizes the detoxification process. If you have been searching for a book or program to help you take that next step for your overall health, Clean 7 is the answer. Discover what it truly means to be healthy.
