What...Have you consider giving your kids raw milk? What about waiting to give wheat till after a year? Only when wheat gluten is properly fermented is it healthy for human consumption. When not it is potentially one of the most highly allergenic foods we eat. It is similar to the controversy with soy which also can only be considered a health food if it is fermented long enough. Correctly fermented wheat contains 18 amino acids (proteins), complex carbohydrate (a super efficient source of energy), B vitamins, iron, zinc, selenium and magnesium, and maltase. <br /><br />There's so much more I can share with you, but I'll wait and see if you are interested :o)<br /><br />Here's what I followed with Naomi with good success. I fed her yolks, banana and advocado (plus breastmilk and raw goats milk) from 7 months to 10 months then I started feeding her other things.<br /><br />http://www.westonaprice.org/children/nourish-baby.html<br /><br /> I know every baby is different. I've chosen to wait a year before starting Tabi on solids. I've heard, read and seen good things about that. Including less allergies. Naomi has no allergies (praise the Lord). For a while she had a small intolerant of corn. Now she's fine. I just want to try a different route with Tabi.Marillyn Beardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17713508002579679875noreply@blogger.com
