Question about barley baby formula.

[Guest guest]

Hi John,

No need to worry. Diarrhea should not be an issue. The dosages would

depend on how much milk they normally drink, all kids are different.

 

I think that Stevia would be better than the corn syrup. I would make

sure it was organic corn syrup if I used any at all. Stevia is a great

sweetener without all the sugar content, so I think it would be best.

I have given the formula to my daughter without any sweetener and she

enjoyed it just the same. Of course, the only sugar she has ever had

was from raisens

and how often? The recipe doesn't say.

 

The youngest tried an ounce and she loved it, wanted more. Tried it

myself, and honestly one of the most fantastic tastes ever. Going to

make some for myself, but use stevia instead of the corn syrup. Woould

that be a better idea for the kids? They are very active and probably

can easily burn the calories off.

 

Walked and played in a very cold mtn. stream in WNC with her today. She

doesn't mind that very cold water at all. My size 14 foot shrunk to

size 11 or so.

 

My sincere thanks for any advice.

I thought that the sugar content was very important for developing babies, breast milk is very sweet, no?  ...was I wrong about this?AnellaOn Thu, Apr 15, 2010 at 1:27 PM, Kelly Shillington <kelly wrote:

Thanks Kelly, Much relieved.

 

I just made another batch, but this time I tripled the grains, and cooked them

in a type 3 pressure cooker, that looses no steam and presserves the volatile

nutrients that could be lost. This batch came out even better. Will try with no

sweetner and if needed, will add a touch of liquid stevia, but like Doc's

thinking not to encourage a sweet tooth. I also have the book Sugar Blues.

 

Thanks again.

 

PS, cuts cooking time in half and no worries about boiling dry.

Corn syrup has always been used traditionally to keep babies regular as formulas and milk can constipate babies. When my first two kids were babies and on formula (70's, need I say more?), my grandma told me to give a Tbls. or 2 of corn syrup in their bottles whenever they would become constipated. I didn't have to do this too often, but when I did, it seemed to help them move better. My oldest child had problems being constipated with the formula he was on (Similac with Iron), and eventually I took him off the Iron formula and gave him regular which seemed to work better for him. The last 6 kids (and born at home!) were all breast fed. I wish I had breast fed my first two, but I can't go back. They are both healthy "30 something" now. Lori "By preventing a free market in education, a handful of social engineers - backed by the industries that profit from compulsory schooling: teacher colleges, textbook publishers, materials suppliers, et al. - has ensured that most of our children will not have an education, even though they may be thoroughly schooled."– John Taylor Gatto He who cultivates his land will have plenty of food, but from idle pursuits a man has his fill of poverty.

The corn syrup is the one ingredient

that you can adjust the amount in the Barley Formula.  Doc said that it

is good to have some form of carbohydrate in the formula because babies

and kids have such high energy.  But you could put very little and it

would be sufficient.  The only thing is the corn syrup MUST MUST MUST

be certified organic and Non-GMO.  Last I checked Wholesome Sweeteners

had a good organic corn syrup, but have not used it in about a year.
