Child Nutrition:
Babies:
The best food for a baby should be breast milk. (goats milk is closest if you can't breastfeed.)
When should a baby eat food?
1. When they have teeth.
2. When the baby can sit.
3. When the baby can feed itself. (you must have all three)
Donât give them starch too soon! It depends on their teeth.
4 on the top and 4 on the bottom are still milk teeth.
When molars come through, they are ready for grains. (4 grain grinders)
At 10 months you can give them steamed veggies.
Teach them to chew! First foods should be cucumbers, celery or apples.(baby food doesnât teach them to chew) *When they spit it out example.
Wheat & dairy of today can be causing a lot of neurological issues in adults and children. If you have a child dealing with tonsillitis, earaches, bronchitis, this could be a dairy intolerance.Dangers of dyes & sugar in children:
Cancer-causing Hyperactivity Inattention Restlessness Impaired memoryWhy all behavioral? It passes into the blood/brain barrier.
Foods with dye:
Candy: M&M's, Skittles, and other candies Baked goods: Cake mix, cookies, pie filling, and cake frosting Drinks: Kool-Aid, Gatorade, Powerade, SunnyD, and other sports drinks Flavored foods: Applesauce, ketchup, yogurt, and dips Other foods: Jell-O, pickles, smoked salmon, and salad dressing, inorganic fruits like oranges. (Citrus Red #2)How to Eat: How to aid in digestion
Let the stomach rest when you do. (at night)Breakfast like a king
Lunch like a prince
Dinner like a pauperAcid reflux:
Itâs not too much acid - itâs a weak valve. How can you help? ^^^
Strong acid is important for digestion. Stop taking antacids.
Stomach acid is antibacterial. It allows your body to heal itself.
Low stomach acid? Take juice of a lemon and then ÂŒ tsp cayenne pepper and â cup of water before a meal.
Strengthen gut flora:
Gut flora is responsible for breakdown of b-vitamins, absorption, protection, and nourishment.
Eat fermented foods, take a probiotic, eat less sugar and more whole foods. Donât take antibiotics. (they kill gut flora and cause mold and fungus in the body)
Chew:
Spend time chewing your food and giving the digestive enzymes in your mouth time to start breaking down your food. Benefits: weight loss - less digestive issues - less sensitive to foods.
Eat sitting and in a peaceful environment:
This improves digestion.
Water intake while eating:
A lot of fluids during a meal delays digestion because it dilutes the stomach acid.
Stop drinking 30 minutes before a meal and start again an hour or 2 after eating.
Hours between eating:
Digestion takes 3.5 - 4 hours. Rest 1 hour so eat every 4.5 to 5 hours. Give the body time to fully digest before you fill it with food again.
Starving between meals? The body often doesnât know the difference between thirst and hunger. Drink water!
