In The Healthy Home, father-and-son team Dr. Myron Wentz and Dave Wentz walk listeners room-by-room through a typical house, pointing out the surprising health risks posed by the everyday products and behaviors of any modern family. You will learn about the negative effects of toxins found throughout your home and receive simple solutions to help minimize exposure without foregoing convenience.

It is an invaluable guide that will change how we live in simple yet significant ways.…

The Healthy Home is not a comprehensive tome on modern health hazards; nor is it a treatise on eco-conscious living. Instead, the book focuses on the most important environment--the home--and the problems that can most easily be lessened or eliminated. Busy parents who suspect that they should be doing more to protect their family but don't know where to start will learn about practical changes they can make in the next fifteen minutes, fifteen days, or fifteen months to create a haven for healthier living.
