Building a Healthy Child
Melina Roberts, N.D., has developed a revolutionary program that introduces infants and toddlers to food that helps them develop their bodies and health. Many parents feed their children as if they're adults, without ever thinking that perhaps they should not be eating like a fully-grown adult. The truth is, however, that organs and body systems mature at different times, which means nutrition needs at different ages vary. In this guidebook to promoting optimal health in infants and toddlers, you'll learn how take advantage of the benefits of breastfeeding; avoid foods that can cause infants problems, such as grains, wheat, soy, corn, refined white sugar, and cow's milk; introduce solids to infants and toddlers; decrease the likelihood of children developing allergies, eczema, asthma, and chronic disease. Most parents want to give their children a head start in life, but they too often neglect the most important area-nutrition. They introduce certain foods too early and feed their children poor-quality food, promoting a disastrous cycle of bad health. Help your children develop into intelligent, successful, and healthy adults with the insights and guidance in Building a Healthy Child.

Building a Healthy Child focuses on nutrition during infancy and toddlerhood, emphasizing the idea that children’s nutritional needs change as their bodies develop.
N. D. Melina Roberts addresses breastfeeding, the introduction of solid foods, and the timing of different foods as central parts of the guide.
The book also discusses foods the author recommends avoiding and presents its own approach to introducing foods during early childhood.
Its stated goal of helping parents establish stronger nutritional foundations gives the book a distinctly practical, parent-focused identity.
At 98 pages, the Kindle edition offers a concise guide for parents seeking a structured perspective on food introduction and foundational childhood nutrition.
