Green Enough: Eat Better, Live Cleaner, Be Happier--All Without Driving Your Family Crazy!
A real, no-holds-barred take on making smart, healthy choices for you and your family.
In Green Enough , Mamavation blogger Leah Segedie uncovers the truth behind the food and household products that are misleadingly labeled "all-natural" and healthy but are actually filled with chemicals and toxins. From furniture to packaged food, Leah guides you through detoxifying your home, diet, and lifestyle, showing you how to make the best choices possible.
She exposes the brands and products that contain toxic and hormone-disrupting ingredients and gives guidelines on choosing safer products and organic produce that are free from toxic and persistent pesticides. She instructs you on making the move to meat, dairy, and eggs that are free of antibiotics, GMOs, growth hormones, and dangerous pathogens. She explains at what phases of childhood children are the most vulnerable and need more protection. And she includes delicious and kid-approved recipes to help you detoxify your cooking routine. It’s not about being perfect or 100% clean—none of us are—it’s about being green enough.

I started this book 6 years and 2 months ago. I wish I’d finished it 6 years and 1 month ago. But as the author herself says(in so many words), I’m starting where I am today. Excellent information about what the chemicals in our everyday lives are doing to our bodies and how to minimize (or eliminate) their impact. She has experts and endnotes for the skeptical who need to do their own investigating. I like that it’s all in one book for me to keep as a reference - including “best” lists and healthier options recipes. Highly recommend reading if only to open your eyes. Note: For those offended by it, she does use colorful language.

Three stars because the information in this book is great but they should have called it You'll Never Be Green Enough. This book sets a high bar.
