A question about feeding kiwi to a baby - NO RECIPES!

[Guest guest]

I agree with Elchanan. I nursed my two boys 2.5 and 2 years respectively. They

would sit on our laps and watch us eat and when they were old enough we would

give them little bites from our plates. They are now 17 and 14, healthy, never

vaccinated and never sick.

 

It is not only healthier for your children, it is cheaper and very convenient.

Plus, the bonding to you and the security they receive is immeasurable.

[Raw Food] A question about feeding kiwi to a baby - NO RECIPES!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On the contrary, Erica, it is not only irrelevant but destructive.

 

 

 

Human Infants are designed to nurse for nearly most or even all of their

 

nutrition well into toddlerhood ... 4 years, in some societies. And when

 

they do begin to transition from animal milk (that of their own mother only)

 

onto plant-based foods, they are designed ... and they will naturally

 

gravitate toward ... eating fruits, one food at a time. This is Nature's

 

design.

 

 

 

Any attempt to combine foods, a.k.a. create recipes, for a little one is

 

counterproductive to that child's health. It slows the digestion (creates

 

digestive congestion), diverts water and blood from other vital functions,

 

at the very least.

 

 

 

The crucial lesson here is to recognize and refrain from imposing upon our

 

children those inherently harmful practices we were taught by people who

 

simply did not know otherwise. There is NO form of healthful food combining

 

in one so young.

 

 

 

Best,

 

Elchanan

The recipe book is irrelevant.

 

 

 

Actually, it isn't so irrelevant because it will be relevant pretty shortly,

 

and it's important to be prepared as the parent of a raw foods toddler. I

 

thought it was a great suggestion. I agree with you that nursing is ideal at

 

8 months, though. Erica

Wonderful testimonial, Marsh! 14 and 17 and never been sick. Wish I had been

so fortunate!!!

 

For me, it was more like age 17 and never been " well " .

Ah!! ARggh!! Curiosity...piqued! Waiting with patience for story...

(LOL!) I do agree with nursing a child through 3 or 4. Absolutely.

Always have. And of course not vaccinating. I want to clarify all of

that. Erica

You can hear his story in one of his teleconferences. Which one,

Elchanan? (It's probably time I go over them, again.) It's quite the

amazing story.
