Raw Food: Can you feed your children raw food? Every parent wants the best for his child. You want your child to look at healthy, grow proportionately, feel energized and have a good immune system. So why do most parents in America feed their children junk food when they start to eat table food? Why do most restaurants serve French fries or macaroni and cheese for side orders and not steamed broccoli? It's really a sad situation to watch young children who are obese. Even schools offer peanut butter and jelly or ice cream for lunch.
To ensure that your child eats properly, you must feed them plenty of fruits and vegetables. But the trick is to make delicious and fun. For example, for breakfast, arrange a platter of fruit, oranges, grapefruit, bananas, strawberries, blueberries, they will love! Make side of the fruit. Ask them to drink only water and no sugar fruit juice 100% juice than yourself. accustom them to eat vegetables that are uncooked. When they are hungry, offer baby carrots, or celery, they will grow to love the taste just the way it is. You can introduce a new vegetable each week and learn to hide it in your food. For example, chop Portobello mushrooms in a meat grinder and add to your pasta sauce and watch them swallow it, just see the mushrooms. Blanch broccoli (plain) and eat for dinner. If they see you eating well, they learn very early to eat this way. Do not let them eat packaged foods, like macaroni and cheese, or fried chicken fingers, fries or anything for that matter. Make sure they eat vegetables at each meal and be careful when eating out.
Desserts offers natural that you have at home, such as sorbets, or stewed fruit or pie Peach cobbler (all individuals). Stay away from cakes, cookies, etc. that have preservatives and other natural flavors. Make yourself and the offer from time to time. You will see that it shows you and what you eat and if you incorporate a menu much cleaner, so will they.
The best part of raising your children learn to like fruits and vegetables, then you will see that they will turn down junk food when you're not around. At this point you'll know you've done your part in increasing healthy adults.
