Product Description
Review
"There are better ways of managing children's ear problems. Dr. Schmidt's comprehensively researched and referenced new book provides answers parents and professionals are seeking. My highest recommendation."
- William G. Crook, M.D., Fellow, American Academy of Pediatrics
"This book offers hope, solid information, and sound advice for discouraged parents and clinicians. It shines a much-needed, brilliant light on a common, troubling, often chronic childhood illness. It should be sent home from the hospital with every newborn - and be required reading for all clinicians."

Product Description
Ear infections are still the leading reason parents take their child to a doctor. To combat infections, parents and doctors employ arsenals of antihistamines and antibiotics, and too quickly resort to ear tubes and surgery. In this updated and revised second edition of his bestselling Childhood Ear Infections, Dr. Michael Schmidt describes the current controversy in medical journals questioning existing treatments for chronic earaches.

5.0 out of 5 stars
very good alternative methods to healing ear infections,
By A Customer
This review is from: Healing Childhood Ear Infections: Prevention, Home Care, and Alternative Treatment (Paperback)
This book reviews many different alternative medicines and therapies for healing ear infections. It covers the over all health and nutritional needs of children and how they relate to the healing process of ear infections. The homeopahtic information was a bit generic and left me needing more information on which medicines to choose from. Over all I found it to be a very good book.

Excellent Resource for Parents,
By A Customer
This review is from: Healing Childhood Ear Infections: Prevention, Home Care, and Alternative Treatment (Paperback)
By the time my son was 18 months old, he had had seven ear infections in the past six months and was scheduled to have surgery for tubes. My father suggested I research alternative medicine first, so I bought this book. What a wonderful source of information that most peditricians don't tell you. We tried a handful of rememdies recommended in this book, all with great success. It is now 9 months later and my son has only been diagnosed with one ear infection during this time, and to our surprise when we told the peditrician we didn't want to treat this ear infection with antibiotics, he agreed that it was best NOT to treat it, that his own immune system would fight it. And guess what? It did!

Excellent information - can improve health of entire family.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Healing Childhood Ear Infections: Prevention, Home Care, and Alternative Treatment (Paperback)
The authors maintain that boosting our immunity offers much better protection against illness than combatting each new virus or harmful bacteria strain. In an age where the effectiveness of antibiotics is quickly diminishing, the alternative approaches offered in this book make a lot of sense. Our family has already followed a few suggestions with positive results. Highly recommended.
