Guest guest Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 Yes, we use Nutr. Yeast quite a bit. We also take a supplement ocassionally. We have fallen off the EFA but I will get us back on flax seed meal and oils and hemp oils and seeds. RE: children - Our local food is grown in sand so it isn't as high in nutrition as I would like. (We've had seminars here about why organic farms can't do well. I planted forty tomato plants the first year we moved here and didn't get enough to share with neighbors or can arvrn though I have gardening experience.) So we also use the gummy dolphins and Rhino calcium chews. I recently added Hemp milk to my daughter's diet and she loves it. She doesn't eat well and doesn't take her vitamins every day but I do what I can, including buying produce shipped in from other areas. Juice plus warning: I recently attended a party promoting juice plus. Apparently the ingredients have recently changed and the new product contains gelatin. I think there was another problem but it may affect vegans and not vegetarians. The rep told me that not all of the older product has been sold so you may want to watch your labels for the change.
