Natural Standard recently added a Healthy Recipes database to their clinical decision support tool. You will find the recipes on the “TOOLS” pull-down at NaturalStandard.com .
What makes the recipe database special is the ingredients link to their respective Natural Standard monographs. This allows clinicians to easily check for drug interaction, safety and allergy information when recommending these tasty meals. This is also a wonderful reference for planning healthy family meals. Check out chicken and artichokes with pasta to see how these recipes work.
Natural Standard was founded by clinicians and researchers to provide high quality, evidence-based information about complementary and alternative therapies. This data base has an A – Z listing of Foods, Herbs, and Supplements that will provide you with in-depth, evidenced-based information on herbal medicines including uses, dosing recommendations, scientific evidence, safety, interactions, and references.
If you would like more information on and/or assistance in using the Natural Standard database, contact Deb Knippel.

Online Directory for Children and Family Services
The MCH Library at Georgetown University has developed a new edition of the Community Services Locator, an online directory for finding services for children and families in the communities in which they live. The locator can be used by service providers and families to find available child care and early childhood education programs; developmental assessment and learning services; family support; financial support; and health and wellness care. View the locator online at http://www.mchlibrary.info/KnowledgePaths/kp_community.html.
