“…a well-researched and deeply impactful book with key medical advice that will lead you and your children on a healthier path.”
“Conversations With My Daughter: How to Have a Healthy Baby is Dagmar Ganser’s solution for women worldwide to raise healthy babies. Based on extensive research and lived experiences, Ganser collects the most significant elements that’ll aid women, alongside their partners, in adopting an all-around healthy lifestyle that, by default, will blend into their own children, creating a purposeful, positive impact.
Filled with details, the book is divided into chapters to guide women through the many steps that should be taken to guarantee a healthier life for their children. Each chapter covers a particular topic following the timeline of pregnancy: from conception until childbirth and even sometime after that. The book’s structure makes it perfect to follow through the whole child-bearing journey. The first step towards developing a healthier life with healthier children starts with being aware and attentive to the problems: your own actions could be the main ones needed to guarantee their health.
Readers will find the main theme quite a compelling one. Each point the author exposes is backed up by evidence, adding weight to the warnings provided. In the book, readers are shown how to recognize the way in which our modern lifestyles directly and unsuspectedly impact our health. Because of this, particular attention is given to what we eat, breathe, and surround ourselves with. Every toxic particle in our immediate environment will have the potential of not only affecting us. Still, it can also be transferred to our future offspring, negatively affecting their physical and mental health. Even though at first all of the modern problems exposed will seem overwhelming, by the end, each chapter will have fully wrapped up possible and feasible solutions to deal with them. The only thing necessary will be cultivating a strong will to remain on the path toward a healthy lifestyle.
Conversations With My Daughter: How to Have a Healthy Baby is a well-researched and deeply impactful book with key medical advice that will lead you and your children on a healthier path. Even though the book mainly focuses on women, current mothers, and mothers-to-be, anyone can find useful tips in it, given that the overall solution for nurturing healthy babies comes first by having a healthy life.”

What an amazing well documented book for anyone wanting to produce a very healthy baby. Every young person & their partner is lucky to have this book as a reference – there definitely was no such thing in my day (Dr Spok!!)
Maybe every church, celebrant, medical clinic, women’s health clinic should be recommending this book as a must have ‘Healthy Baby Manual’.
Perhaps it could be part of the curriculum for year 7. Students are taught how to avoid getting pregnant & much other negative stuff – why not be taught how to produce healthy children! It should be shouted from the hills. The government & insurance companies should get behind this – do we want a healthy Nation? LG Gold Coast

Lovely Wow! I felt that I sitting in on these super personal chats between her and her daughter about everything baby, starting right from the bump.

Andrea. October 2023
Vital for Future Parents: This book is an eye-opener. Health issues are on the rise, especially in the younger generation, and many of us wonder why without doing the research to find an answer.
Ganser did the research for us. This book dives into why kids are facing more health challenges than ever, and the things that we can control to help prevent or lessen the risk of our children developing them.
It’s not your typical health read either. It’s easy-to-grasp and a deep exploration of the many factors affecting not only the children, but the infertility struggles as well. This is perfect for expecting parents, conceiving parents, and even people who aren’t parents but want to aid in a friend or family member’s journey to creating new life.
I loved reading about the things in our bodies that can be passed down to our children, and how many things are actually in our control to change and aid the risks.
Like the blurb mentioned, it left me wondering why we don’t talk about these things, and why topics surrounding inferitlity or pregnancy are often seen as taboo or a place you don’t go. I feel it’s a topic that needs more conversation now than ever.
Wonderful book for all who are wanting, expecting, or just knowing parents. Hannah. October 2023
Prepare Yourself Before Preparing For The Baby: I believe that the parents’ health is a contributing factor in the total health of a baby even before its conception and more so during conception, barring other unforeseen circumstances and factors. And so, I gladly purchased this book as a requested gift for a young newly-wed nephew who is doing his best to be consciously responsible about having children and eagerly equipping himself with knowledge and skills. Doing so, empowers a future father, who will be more confident and just less anxious, because true enough, becoming a new parent does cause a lot of jitters. This book written by Dagmar Ganser, an accredited traditional medicine practitioner, is a very useful guide among the recently published books on babies. Having raised children myself, I should say that taking my health seriously was also meant for my children’s sake. I was quite fortunate that prevention did the work most times as the cure, but the work needed to be done first. The healthier my children were, the less hospital visits were made and there was less use of antibiotics and other medicines. It is true that rather than be overwhelmed about the whole concept, one must feel empowered, conquer the fears and the unknown, by educating oneself. When a parent sees that the child is healthy, then it’s one of the best things to be truly grateful for. What I immediately appreciated about this book is that in Section 1 Preparation, the first chapter began with “Let’s Begin With Men”, because I believe that is very valuable. It took a really long time for society to catch up and give just as full responsibility to men and that having a child and parenting does not fall on just the woman’s shoulders or life. The other topics that I liked in this book were on environmental toxins, B vitamins, epigenetics, gut health, emotional foundations, oxidative stress, preventative medicine, and, an appendix on labs and test guide. This book is concise and is easy to read. Although the subject is extremely important and a serious one, it does not overwhelm the reader. It is easy to digest and is very handy guide. This book covers just about everything, with a wealth of knowledge and information shared, and Section 1 is my favorite. Because, books about conception and birth abound everywhere, while there isn’t as much about the preparation stage. What I also liked best is that these information are evidence-based and show that these are achievable. I recommend this book just as I strongly advise any parent-to-be that preparing oneself, preparing that stage, more than preparing all the baby stuffs or the room, is the best thing one can do to begin the journey of parenting.

A must read if you want to have a healthy baby: I’m the daughter with whom Dagmar (the author of this book) had conversations with. I’m thrilled that her immense knowledge and wisdom has been collated and is now available inside the pages of this book. Mum helped my husband and I to have a healthy baby. And has helped many more families realise their healthy baby dream during her 20 plus years in clinic. The information Dagmar shares in her book is wise, approachable, comprehensive and evidence-based. She’s included checklists, summaries and links to make it super easy for you to implement and follow. I’m beyond proud and so glad daughters everywhere get to learn from my mum—she’s amazing! You’ll love this book and it will set you up to have a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby. Bianka B. Reviewed in Australia on 25 July 2023
