Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Kelly, I am a raw food coach on www.thebestdayever.com. Take a big breath and relax is my advice. Freaking out about food " rules " can end up in eating disorders for all. It is fine for you to go 100% raw if you have the personal power to do so, but don't expect anybody in your environment to do the same and it is not healthy for you to enforce diet rules on others. Remember, we don't live in a 100% raw society currently. Read this: http://www.naturaw.com/raw_food_diet.html & http://www.naturaw.com/about_naturaw.html I have been into raw foods since 1993. I have a wife and 4 1/2 year old daughter. We have pushed the envelope in ALL directions! Do you tell a bird which seeds it can eat? Understandably, you do dictate how you feed your kids. Follow your heart in these matters and not your mind is what I say! Delivering food that is healthy, filled with your love, and that your kids love is the key. Bottom line: It is your responsibility to feed your kids so they thrive and so they are not anxious around food and diet. They must enjoy being fed! The spirit in which you do it is key! To answer your other question, kids may experience detox as well. Aloha!

I'm trying to get my kids to go raw with me today, as i'm seriously trying to go 100% today!!!! They are freaking for " real food " as they call it. They are small kids 5, 3, 2 and 10 months... so, what should i do??? Should i just continue to feed them the raw stuff, or just give in? I'm concerned actually that they will lose weight. I don't have a juicer or a blender, so they will depend on the foods as is, and probably not be able to eat very much! And what about the toxin release that is experienced by adults. Will my small kids experience this??????? Very concerned! kelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
