OH NO! NOT AGAIN! Most of my life and medical career has been spent when tobacco profits, lies and scams have taken precedence in public policy over the actual lives and well-being of our children and even society as a whole.Listen as a Yale Professor of Psychiatry, doctor and mother, Suchitra Krishnan-Sarind, explains THE TRUTH ABOUT VAPING. See the video I wish the discussion about this topic had started at least 50 years earlier: Just when should school start for teens? Is there a guideline for how much a child/teen should sleep?

See the video The red and white tulip is the symbol for fighting Parkinson s Disease.Although April 11th is World Parkinson s Disease (PD) Day, the entire month of April is Parkinson s Disease Month with activities highlighting the progress against this debilitating disease robbing, at the very least, every one-hundredth child of their parent or grandparent. Read more Worlds Most Massive Study: Five Diseases Reduced by Physical Activity, Excersize April 7, 2019 Believe it or not, the absurdly-expansive claim about exercise in the heading even may be an understatement! No other study even comes close and it s findings were unexpectedly clear: FIVE OF THE WORLDS TOP DISEASES ARE REDUCED BY PHYSICAL ACTIVITY. Simple physical activity!Literally, the counsel given to Adam and Eve: by the sweat of thy brow thou shall eat thy bread seems to have been a commandment and not just gardening instructions! Read more A TED prize winner, Josh Silver, explains how millions of glasses can be prescribed and produced then given to world citizens who need them. It turns out that many of the significant barriers to good eye health are system-created and thus can be overcome.Glasses without the need for an optometrist; and for under 19 dollars a pair (shooting for under a dollar). See the video Telling Truth or Lies to Children: Parenting February 28, 2019 Even though I ve never met him, my brother from another mother Dr. Greg Barrett beat me yet again to writing another parenting article and literally took the words right out of my mouth: Telling truth or lies to children being honest with your children.So much so it s going to be hard giving you my personal take on this important part of parenting without feeling like I m just repeating what he said: whether or not to tell the truth or lie to your children. Read more Cardiac Arrest: Commotio Cordis Prevention, Return To Play Astin, the 17-year-old who suffered cardiac arrest when he was hit in the chest by an elbow playing baseball, is back for his 2nd follow-up. Remember, last visit he was depressed with worry over all the junk he had read on the internet and you (well I) assigned him some homework. For the third article [ ] Most Influential Doctor: David L. Sackett Evidence-based Medicine Medicine has a lot of fathers of various things; and many of the 50 most influential physicians of all time we ve been talking about have been considered fathers of one thing or another. Dr. David L. Sackett is no exception A father of evidenced based medicine, number 30 on our list. Read more Protecting Our Tomorrows: Geddes Portraits of Meningitis In my youth Ansel Adams was the world s most renowned photographer. The whole world knew and loved his breathtaking landscapes and his conservationist agenda. Today it seems there isn t a person who hasn t seen and wondered about Anne Geddes startlingly-endearing photographs of newborn infants in egg crates, and lettuce leaves. Compliment About Being Good for Fever Help [A compliment about the Pediatric House Calls website being good for fever help.] (more ) Go Wash Your Hands Go wash your hands words children can t hear often enough; but, it shouldn t always be from you. This page teaches children why and how to wash their hands. [ http://kidshealth.org/kid/talk/qa/wash_hands.html ] The Fading Art of the Physical Exam The physical exam has not diminished in it s critical importance even one smidgen over the years. If anything it s even more important now than ever. Unfortunately, some physicians have succumbed to other pressures and are short-changing patients by neglecting them in favor of added cost testing and other laboratory work. Listen to this 5 minute [ ] Support our Benefactors It's difficult to locate 'benefactors' for a medical site which don't suggest a conflict of interest of some sort. I don't want what is suggested or recommended here to have even a hint at motivation other than the truth and what is best for children.If you own or manage an organization interested simply in providing free education about the health of children and don't have an "agenda" or expectation for endorsement, please, contact us.
