Guest guest Posted November 12, 2004 Report Share Posted November 12, 2004 Hi, my name is Kelly. I am thinking about becoming a vegetarian, and right now I am eating very little meat. My three children do not eat meat. They are naturally vegetarian......they don't eat meat, and they don't like it. Last weekend my husband (who loves meat by the way) tried to give all three of them bacon.....and all three of them rejected it and said YUCK! My husband and I have two adopted daughters, Lexi who is 6, and Mariah who is 4. We also have a foster daughter Katrina who is two. About two months ago we went to an all organic diet. I did this because Mariah was diagnosed with ADHD. In an effort to help Mariah I started doing a lot of research, and learned that a lot of crap that is in the American child's diet affects the symptoms of ADHD. So now I've got all three girls eating very healthy and taking supplements. I myself am developing some health problems, so adopting a healthy lifestyle I think is important for the whole family. My kids are eating mostly fresh fruits and vegys, homemade smoothies, whole grains, beans, and nuts. I'm interested in what everyone is feading their kids. My girls don't drink cows milk either, Mariah is lactose intolerant. I have been putting goat's milk powder in their smoothies to get some extra calcium in them. They drink water too. Since I am brand new to this.....I'm still fumbling around trying to figure it all out. Any input anyone has would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Kelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
