Winning the legal battle against Child abuse


Children’s rights professionals working in Children’s Advocacy Centers (CACs) spend a great deal of their lives working to help victims of child abuse. CACs implement a multi-disciplinary approach to investigate, treat and prevent sexual and physical abuse in children.

However, allegations of child abuse are settled in the court and CAC centers often lack qualified legal counsel to make the legal process flow. Thus, CAC professionals may find the rigors of the courtroom rather confusing and complicated.

This prompted lawyer Andrew Agatston to publish a book, The Legal Eagles of Children’s Advocacy Centers. This self-published book is a collection of Agatston’s legal letters to CACs, child advocates and detectives that helps pave a path toward becoming Legal Eagles.

People working in Children’s Advocacy Centers will find this book useful as it provides an overview of, and addresses many legal concerns CACs may face. The Legal Eagles of Children’s Advocacy Centers can help to better improve the legal system’s response to child abuse as well as programs that serve these children.

The Root of All Diseases


Research has shown that there is a strong link between periodontal disease and cardiovascular disease, as well as other chronic degenerative illnesses. It has been found that those affected with dental disease are more likely to suffer from heart ailments than those who do not.

One theory explains that inflammation caused by dental infection contributes to coronary artery disease. This is because oral bacteria can enter the bloodstream, attach to plaques in the blood vessels and form clots. When this happens, normal blood flow is obstructed and could lead to a heart attack.

Dentist Robert Kulacz and cardiologist Thomas Levy have discovered the huge impact dental diseases have on one’s health. They have found that oral disease cure and prevention can have a significant effect in improving chronic degenerative diseases, much less, keeping them at bay.

This led them to publish a book, The Roots of Disease: Connecting Dentistry and Medicine. This self-published book demonstrates that infective dental toxicity can be the root of all chronic illnesses. By identifying and correcting oral diseases, people may be able to prevent or eliminate chronic degenerative ailments.

Loaded with scientific data from both dental and medical perspectives, The Roots of Disease will enlighten and educate readers that although dentistry and medicine rarely go together, both should not be separated from each other.

The Roots of Disease stresses the assertion that oral health truly has teeth to one’s overall health.
