What if someone told you, before your baby was born, that you have the power to ensure they lead a healthy life? As a mother, I can confidently say I would do everything in my power, especially if someone assured me that scientifically, 80% of their health could depend on me, assuming no rare pathologies. How many parents wouldn’t do the same?
That’s why a book like the one I’m presenting this Thursday is essential. Elisabeth Silvestre and Elena Codina explain in “The first 1000 days” (original title: Los primeros mil días), published by Integral, an imprint from the RBA group, the importance of habits for a healthy pregnancy, childhood, and life.
The first 1000 days of life, from conception to the baby’s second birthday, is an exceptional period during which organs form, neurological and emotional development foundations are laid, and health is built—both for today and tomorrow. We have a tremendous opportunity to contribute to creating a more prosperous future for our children with small habit changes.
In this book you will learn the keys which can be applied during pregnancy and upbringing that will provide lifelong benefits.
- Maintaining a balanced diet.
- Establishing a secure bond and attachment.
- Avoiding exposure to toxins.
- Preparing the home for the baby’s arrival.
- Managing screen time.
- Connecting with nature.
This book is a guide to practicing building a healthy lifestyle to your children and your entire family.
The authors provide a scientific explanation along with all the necessary and easy guidelines to achieve the best in these golden thousand days, as many paediatricians refer to this period.
