Optimising Children’s Health

The wellbeing of our children has a vital influence on the success of future generations. Children should be encouraged to adopt sensible nutritional and physical practices, which will form the basis of healthy habits in adult life.

There is growing published evidence that a large proportion of Australian children do not receive even the minimum recommended amounts of essential vitamins, minerals, proteins, essential fatty acids and antioxidants. These studies only looked at nutrients required to prevent obvious illness, rather than address nutritional needs of optimum physical, mental and emotional stability and performance.

This means that we are raising a generation of children where a significant proportion will not be able to contribute to their own (as well as our national) well being and instead become a major burden on the health and social security system.

Chronic Illness in Children

There is also another group of children who, through no fault of their upbringing, suffer from a range of chronic or recurrent illnesses which often commence in infancy or early childhood and which the orthodox medical approach can only deal with through the use of symptom suppressing drugs.

These include all the atopic diseases such as asthma, eczema and allergies; so-called behavioural problems, including the growing epidemic of Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD); chronic issues with impaired immunity, manifesting as recurrent infections and loss of energy and lastly chronic digestive disorders such as constipation, diarrhoea, indigestion, childhood reflux and others.


Treatments

All of these diseases are manifestations of multi-system imbalance or toxicity, where appropriate investigation inevitably shows serious disturbances in digestive function, specific food allergies or intolerances as well as substantial nutrient deficiencies in spite what we commonly accept to be a healthy diet.

Once these imbalances are properly identified and treated, it becomes a spiritually uplifting experience to watch these children become happy, healthy and creative and at the same time watch the joy of their parents and siblings as this incredible burden is lifted from their minds and bodies.
