Naturopathic and Integrative Pediatrics is a clinically oriented textbook designed for students and practitioners of naturopathic and integrative medicine. At over 800 pages and 6 pounds, it makes a great reference AND door stop! The goal of this text is to provide a primer in naturopathic pediatric care with the following objectives:
The first section of the book is devoted to promoting wellness and preventing disease, including principles of monitoring and encouraging normal growth and development and important lifestyle considerations such as nutrition, sleep, physical activity, and environmental exposures.
The second section explores the management of common presenting pediatric concerns in a typical naturopathic practice.

- To offer evidence, principles, and strategies that will support the reader in creating holistic, individualized plans.

The land on which I live, work and play is the traditional territory of many nations including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples and is now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples. Toronto is in the 'Dish With One Spoon Territory’. The Dish With One Spoon is a treaty between the Anishinaabe, Mississaugas and Haudenosaunee that bound them to share the territory and protect the land. Subsequent Indigenous Nations and peoples, Europeans and all newcomers have been invited into this treaty in the spirit of peace, friendship and respect. I also acknowledge that Toronto is covered by the Toronto Purchase, Treaty 13, signed with the Mississaugas of the Credit, and the Williams Treaty signed with multiple Mississaugas and Chippewa bands.
