Supplements For Kids | Dr Steve Healthy Living
Written by Dr. Steve Polenz
As a parent there is nothing more important than our kids. We want them to be safe, confident and we definitely want them to be healthy.
What really touches my heart is when a sick child is brought in to see me. Kids are supposed to be running around having fun, making us laugh and driving us crazy. Kids are supposed to radiate health not be sick.
Like so many other things I have seen in practice I am seeing more and more children with bigger health issues than ever before. I am seeing kids who’s digestive systems are wrecked like an adults. I see kids who are chronically tired and don’t want to go out and play. I see kids that look as sick as us adults do.
WHY?
Toxicity
And
Deficiency.
A study done by the Environmental Working Group called the Body Burden 2 study set out to take a look at the toxins in newborns.
So what they did is for 10 newborns after the baby was born and the umbilical cord was cut the Red Cross took a blood sample from the umbilical cord and sent it off to be analyzed for chemicals and heavy metals.
What they found may shock you.
They found 287 chemicals and toxins
180 of those are known to cause cancer in humans or animals
217 are toxic to the brain and nervous system
208 cause birth defects or abnormal development in animal tests.
Substantial scientific evidence demonstrates that children face increased risks from these toxins because of their rapid development and incomplete defense systems:
Our kids are having to deal with these 100’s of toxins that their little bodies were never meant to live with. It is no wonder so many kids are sick today.
I want you to know something important. As a parent It is not your fault that these toxins are affecting your kids. They are everywhere in our daily lives.
In my Healthy Child video I will share with you the steps you can take right now to help protect the health of your child.
While I hate seeing kids get sick I love seeing them get better and this video will show you what I do in my practice to help you and your kids health.
Thank you,
Dr. Steve

A first podiatry appointment is far less clinical than most people expect. It typically starts with a conversation about your medical history and the specific problem you're dealing with, followed by a look at your footwear, how you stand and walk, and a hands-on assessment of the affected area.
