Common Children's Health Old Wives' Tales with Dr. J.J. Levenstein
Old wives tales are passed down from generation to generation. Board certified pediatrician Dr. JJ Levenstein, MD, FAAP explains why some hold very little scientific truth. Will you catch a cold if you go outside with wet hair? What really causes cavities? Does butter do more harm than good when rubbed on a burn? Does chilly or moist weather cause sickness? Is there truth to the fabled "five second rule"? Is dairy okay to consume while sick? And, the great debate between butter versus margarine. Dr. Levenstein answers all these questions and also shares tips for raising a multi-lingual child.
