How to Start a Green Lifestyle

Being a green parent encompasses a lifestyle of making healthy choices that are often organic, natural, and low in environmental toxins. Although it might feel overwhelming, it can be simple. Instead of focusing on the whole world, Alan Greene, M.D. and author of Raising Baby Green and Feeding Baby Green, says you should focus on three things: what goes in your baby's mouth, what affects his skin, and the air your baby breathes. "When you look at the illnesses that are increasing, we're not just inheriting them. It's the change in our lifestyles, which means there are lifestyle answers that can tilt the odds in our child's favor," Dr. Greene says.
