We are facing an epidemic of chronic illness in children, from obesity, to ADHD, autism, depression, mood disorders, asthma and allergy. Until now, this “Compromised Generation” and their parents have been given little understanding of WHY this is happening and how to fix this, except for covering over symptoms with medication. Beth Lambert takes us all the way to the roots of the problems in our toxic diet and toxic environment, and shows us a way to protect our children’s future. This is the future of medicine. If you have a child and want them to thrive, then you must read this book.

Although genetic and environmental factors such as infections, toxic chemicals and modified dietary proteins and peptides have been implicated in causing many complex disorders, the American medical community refuses to embrace any explanation for autism outside of genetics. We have two choices. One option is to blame everything on the genetics of the unfortunate individual, sit down and do nothing but witness the drastic increase in autism, ADD, ADHD, allergies and asthma rates. Or option two, we can read A Compromised Generation by Beth Lambert, and accept that environmental triggers play a significant role. With option two there is hope. It concludes that we can do something about it.

Children today are suffering from diseases which were once only illnesses of adults: diabetes, heart disease and autoimmune diseases. In addition, there are many new illnesses affecting our children, like developmental delays, chronic digestive disorders, hyperactivity, recurrent infections and autism. There has never been a time in our history plagued by so many new and chronic diseases. Because of this, many parents are at a loss because their doctors don’t have the needed answers. Beth Lambert, a concerned parent, has asked the tough question “WHY?” She has interviewed and questioned teachers, parents, doctors and other experts in an effort to find a pathway through this minefield of health issues. Along the way she has found success stories of those who didn’t settle for bad news, but set out to find answers. This is the owner’s manual for parents and especially those parents with sick or disabled children.

There is no doubt that our brains are connected to our guts, and that our immune systems are affected by what goes on in our intestines.

A Compromised Generation explains in layperson’s language how that works – and the damage poor digestion can eventually wreak on the rest of our bodies.

A Compromised Generation: The Epidemic of Chronic Illness in America’s Children by Beth Lambert looks at the prevalence of chronic childhood illness, such as asthma and autism, and offers an alternative perspective for its causes and treatments. She argues that poor diet and nutrition impacts the body’s bacterial balance and compromises a child’s immune system, which takes further abuse from environmental toxins and overprescribed medications, including vaccines. Without militancy, she calls parents and society to reduce such problems. This could mean eating more organic foods and using natural household products. Her perspective may, at times, be mildly controversial. Nevertheless, it encourages parents to consider a lifestyle that may differ from their neighbors’, but could transform their children’s well-being.

There are dangers to our growing children, and many aren't even aware of them. A Compromised Generation: The Epidemic of Chronic Illness in America's Children discusses the seemingly chronic illness that affect many of today's children in the wide array of forms such as autism, diabetes, and many other disorders. Placing the blame on over use of pharmaceutical drugs, vaccines, and other elements, "A Compromised Generation" is worth considering for parents who are suspicious of the things that could be the cause of sicknesses.
