Infant and child nutrition Book

People who have heard of Marilu Henner and her THM theories might know what they are getting into when they pick up this book. I did not.
I was expecting tips on getting my toddler how to eat healthy foods, convince my kids that exercise is fun, etc. There was some of that in this book, but definitely not the bulk of the text.
She spends pages explaining why we shouldn't eat any type of meat, dairy or processed foods, with what I felt was very little evidence to back up her claims (no sources directly cited, scanty bibliography). She does not address the issue of replacing calcium needs generally met by dairy, and it appears from the recipes at the back of the book that she is replacing most dairy products with soy alternatives. American cheese slices made out of soy? How is that possibly a "live" or "unprocessed" food? How can that possibly be better for you than naturally aged dairy cheese?
She also does not discuss allergies or other problems associated with soy. I'm all for edamame snacks, but this author takes it too far for my taste.
