Got a Junk Food Junkie In Your Home?

By on December 4, 2009

Children are not the picky eaters parents make them out to be. Last year I had the wonderful opportunity of caring for 4 grand nieces and nephews. I found after weaning them off the junk food, which only took a couple of days, they came to love REAL food – they also craved structure.

We crave what is in our blood, and it starts while children are in the womb. Many pregnant women eat everything BUT wholesome foods. Instead of using pregnancy as a green light to pack on excess weight, let it be the beginning of a wonderful, healthy life for you and your child.

Think long term on the health of you and your child. A healthy radiant child can’t possibly be created out of boxed, fast, canned, bagged, or processed food? There’s a reason women miscarry, children get sick, and/or have behavior problems. Begin feeding your children wholesome foods to give life to the brain and body the way nature intended. Schools are chock-full of hyperactive medicated children. This doesn’t have to be! This is common sense stuff, but I am surprised by how many parents feed their kids everything BUT wholesome foods! This sets them up for craving unhealthy foods as an adult. Your food can be your pharmacy!

You wouldn’t build your dream home out of scraps would you? Then why build a junk food junkie!?
