Healthy Kids, Happy Kids: An Integrative Pediatrician’s Guide to Whole Child Resilience

Harvest

May 2024

Do you want to know the key to raising resilient kids, from the inside out? In this groundbreaking, evidence-based guide to raising healthy kids in our modern world, Dr. Elisa Song bridges the gap between conventional and holistic pediatrics and delivers a clear roadmap to help kids thrive.

Raising healthy, happy kids shouldn’t be so hard. Yet, despite living in what should be a golden age of medicine, our children are sicker than ever. At least 1 in 5 kids has eczema, and 1 in 10 has asthma, ADHD, or anxiety—and sometimes they have all of the above. Many parents are at a loss for who to turn to for trusted advice—advice that takes a root-cause, holistic approach to whole child resilience, but doesn’t dismiss the value of conventional pediatrics.

Enter Elisa Song, MD, a Stanford-, NYU-, UCSF-trained pediatrician, one of the foremost pioneers and trusted experts in pediatric integrative and functional medicine. Drawing on extensive research and over 25 years of clinical experience, Dr. Song explains why your child’s gut microbiome holds the key to lifelong wellness. She shares her proven and practical plan for building physical and emotional resilience from the inside out. You will discover how to:

Optimize your child’s microbiome with 5 simple steps.

Empower your kids so they want to make healthy choices (and you don’t have to nag).

Heal your child’s gut to get to the root cause of their chronic health concerns.

Feel calm and confident using safe and effective natural therapies when your kids are sick, with an A-to-Z guide to the top 25 acute childhood ailments.

Complete with helpful quizzes, exercises, protocols, and dozens of delicious, gut-friendly recipes, Healthy Kids, Happy Kids is a comprehensive, yet simple roadmap to raising resilient kids in our not-so-simple world. Thanks to Dr. Song, parents (and practitioners) finally have the power to revolutionize the future of children’s health so that their kids can thrive—no matter what life throws their way.
